Purely Nourishing

Summer holiday survival.. breakfast can sometimes be the key to a bit more energy pre-tea time!

I definitely notice the days when I don’t have a filling breakfast, it feels easy at the time to have some toast, or a bit of cereal.. but come 4pm, the effects of your blood sugar rising and falling may take its toll!
Sorry to be another nutritionist banging on about protein.. but a breakfast with a good dose from eggs or fish.. nuts, avocados or plain yogurt.

It might not be your thing to have your dinner for breakfast but just try to add in some protein and fibre (nuts, seeds.. fruit) and this will help avoid kicking off the blood sugar rollercoaster first thing.

This involves a bit of time spent thinking about YOU in the morning.. it may feel a bit odd!! But I promise, you won’t regret it.

💧 WATER – Let It Flow (Even the Tears)
There are days when tears fall into your toddler’s half-eaten fish fingers, or the school drop off seems like the world is ending and you both walk away in tears! And that’s okay. Emotions need movement, just like water. Bottling it up? You’ll explode somewhere between Aldi and soft play. Cry, dance, rant to a voice note or call a friend.. I bet they will know exactly how you feel.. Most importantly, try not to keep it inside.. Just like the river, let it flow and move through you.

What’s your go-to release when you’re about to burst?

If we are honest, most of us are running on empty.

Between work, family, and life’s endless to-do list, finding time to focus on you feels impossible, right?

I’ve been there, and I know how hard it is.
That’s why I’ve created Energise & Thrive
a 6-week, self-paced nutrition program designed to fit around your life (not the other way around).

Go at your own pace in this step-by-step online course. No extreme diets. No impossible schedules. Just simple, effective steps to boost your energy, improve your stamina, and help you feel more like yourself again.

It always means so much when someone takes the time to share kind words about their experience working with me 💚

I know how personal this journey can be, and it’s not always easy to reach out for support, so hearing that something I’ve shared or offered has made a difference fills me with joy.

If you’re curious about what it’s like to work with me, this little testimonial might give you a glimpse. And if it resonates, do get in touch 💫

Hit your fifties and lost your mojo? You’re not alone. Transitioning into retirement, adapting to an empty nest, or perhaps dealing with emerging health issues, can leave you wondering who you are and what on earth comes next.

You don't have to figure it out alone.

Fermented Foods: Go Slow & Listen to Your Gut! 🦠✨

Your gut microbes need a gentle introduction to fermented foods! If you’re new to them, start with just a teaspoon a day at lunch or dinner, let your gut get used to the goodness. Then, gradually increase the amount while listening to your body. If you feel any squeaks or burps, that’s your gut saying, “Slow down!” Just go back to a teaspoon and keep at it.. try not to go too many days without, or your gut might forget all its good work!

Here are some easy ways to sneak more live microbes into your day:

🥤 Swap fizzy drinks for kombucha – A delicious, gut-friendly alternative! Just make sure to grab one from the fridge aisle, not the shelf.
🥪 Upgrade your condiments – Forget boring mayo… add sauerkraut or kimchi to your sandwich or wrap for extra flavour and gut-loving goodness.
🍜 Try miso magic – This Japanese favourite is packed with beneficial bacteria. Look for the live version in the fridge.
🧀 Don’t forget cheese & yogurt – Opt for good-quality live yogurt and great cheeses like Gouda, Edam, or Gruyère for a natural probiotic boost.

Your gut will love you for it! 💛 Have you tried adding fermented foods to your diet? Let me know below! ⬇️
