Don't let other people tell you how your story is going to end

When it comes to health, you are more powerful than you know.

Take control of the narrative!

Lebanese food is perfect for meeting any dietary requirements you may have and you don't feel like you are compromising or just having to order chips and salad from the sides 🙄

- This restaurant offered quinoa instead of rice which I was thrilled about. More protein, more nutrition, less afternoon carb coma! 🤎

- They were happy to offer crudite instead of bread to go with their delicious dips 💜

- Many of the traditional dishes are naturally gluten and dairy-free such as their beautiful slow cooked tagines🧡

- Like the aesthetic, Middle Eastern food is so rich in colour and variety. Hitting plant and rainbow points is easy peasy! 💚🌈

We were 3 friends with a lot to catch up on, and this tourist shot with Fez provided was icing on the cake in the middle of Birmingham on a rainy afternoon! 🧐😜😅

Health coaching is much more than recipes and menu planning...

Finding out what underpins all of our decision making when we make choices from our heart and what matters to us, is fundamental to motivating us to make the necessary health changes to support us in our life goals and heart's desire.

What makes you tick?
What motivates you?

I like to use this tool on myself to bring myself back to me, when I've veered off course a little or become focussed on things that actually aren't that important or a priority. Which does happen, just writing it out can really make a difference to my mood and motivation.

What do you do to keep yourself grounded and on track?

Highly recommended local eaterie 👌😋

We had a warm welcome and absolutely delicious food.

There's locally sourced produce, a relaxed atmosphere and a rainbow plate on the menu!
Every little pot on this plate came with so much flavour 💚🌈🤩

Thanks

***Nourishing Brunch idea***

Have you tried Tempeh?
🖤 Tempeh is fermented soya beans that have been molded into a block so it can be sliced, chopped , grated... Think of it as a 'meatier' by-way-of-texture, version of tofu. Available in all good supermarkets 🙌

🤓 It is this type of fermented GMO-free soya product that has all the wonderful benefits to support healthy hormones, gut & cardiovascular health. There's plenty of research in this area!

💚 It is packed full of protein so it is a great alternative for anyone wanting to reduce meat intake and increase plant foods.

💚🌈 This is my Tempeh, Black bean and Sweet potato spiced mix on a gluten-free wrap 💚🌈.. and served with fresh herbs and greek yoghurt (also high in protein and another 'fermented' tick to the plate, you can use vegan alternative such as coconut if required) ♥️🧡💛💚💙💜

I chopped red onion, small cubes of sweet potato and tempeh and added to a hot pan with teaspoon of coconut oil, after softening that up I added all the spices and herbs I love, for me this was garam masala, ground cumin, garlic powder, paprika, seaweed flakes and Himalayan pink salt. 🌈
Then add a tin of chopped tomatoes & a tin of drained black beans and cook until sweet potato is soft enough for your liking.

A slow brunch after gym and before work is a welcome pause in the sunshine today ☀️😎

What's your ' healthy pause' for today?

After some time of introspection, 'mum-ing' and general 'plate spinning' today was a welcome slow afternoon with a kindred spirit enjoying a soulful & delicious vegan GF meal. It was SOOOO good!
This is Nourishing Connection 💚🌈

I'd love to hear what you are doing this bank holiday to Nourish Connection with yourself / others/ community? ✨✨

Take care of YOURSELF
