I know protein is the hottest chick 🐥 in town lately but that doesn’t mean she’s the only chick.
•
Yes, the RDA did a disservice 😒 by making protein recommendations so low for so many decades. Yes, protein is so so so important for our long-term health. Yes, research 🔬 has helped us make better recommendations. But obsessing over it, eating lots of ultra processed protein enriched foods 🤢, getting so much protein in the that diet it leads to putrefaction in the gut (yes, it’s happens and it smells - that can be the cause of that bad breath, bloating, and other gastrointestinal symptoms), nope 🚫 not into that.
•
So yes, get smart and figure out or work with a professional to get your daily protein needs met. Get a variety and don’t get stuck on one of two types. Get it in the right context (lots of plant 🌱 foods and fibers and healthy fats in proper portions for your needs).
•
But nope I’m not going to be on here talking non stop protein. The best nutrition pattern is a variety of healthy foods, is customized to you and your lifestyle, and is in the context of a fun, happy life governed by a propensity towards action and positivity. How do you know something healthy isn’t healthy? If it gives you anxiety or leads to overthinking. Pick the step in front of you that gives you energy, challenges you without making you feel anxious, and is doable in your real life. 🩷🩷🩷

After decades of running these streets 🇮🇱 I am actually going to the gym. For years- The same runs, the same consistent high. The hills, the sunrises, the kotel, the dark (I ran very early)- somewhere in the last few months they just felt blah. The strangest feeling. At first I pushed through. But the runs felt so meh 🫤. And then I got on a stairmaster one morning while staying at a hotel and it’s been true lust/love ever since. 😂

I’m not a personal trainer but I will say this over and over- if you are not sweating daily, using those muscles, getting that heart rate up, getting out of your physical comfort zone for a bit most days of the week you are choosing a very different old age than the version of you who just does the walk, the run, the weight lifting, the class. Do it. Don’t think. Don’t plan the perfect workout. Just go. The walk. The new class. I’m actually entertaining the idea of rollerblading (haven’t done that since high school) cuz I gotta keep it fun and sweaty and there’s a long long path from Bat Yam to Herziliya that is calling my name 😅.

Anyone remember that show Supermarket Sweep? It was this frantic grocery shopping show and I found myself bagging my groceries like I was gonna win but I didn’t even need to rush. That rush is an old habit from previous the too-busy, overmananging years. The next topic for the family meeting😂.
•
I’m open with my kids about the times I could have parented better. I’ve heard parenting « experts » in our community say never apologize to you kids but I am full of open conversations and a good sense of humor and apologies when necessary about some of my parenting mistakes. I don’t want my kids to spend their future family life rushing through their kids best moments while simultaneously revving up their nervous system and being over responsive and held hostage by some frantic schedule.

Still working on slowing down or at least calling myself out when I find myself rushing or not present . 🤍🤍🤍

Curate your life so when estrogen dips and you’re not feeling like performing, people pleasing, or putting up with 💩 you are surrounded by people and things and activities that bring you joy, center you, and support you.

My ideal morning starts with water and coffee while I read or write, followed by a workout (ideally a run around the city, situation permitting), and then getting ready for my day. On my best days I don’t open my phone until I am putting on music for my run. I have not had a lot of my best days this last month.
•
I have a completely different energy and focus when my morning starts like this verses water and coffee while scrolling and answering messages. My goals for the next month is to get back to my best morning ☀️energy and ditch the scrolling.
•
When setting a goal 🎯 it needs action- for my goal in particular I need a stack of books 📚 next to my bed and on the coffee table in my living room (the two places I drink coffee and read).
•
Put a little heater at my desk cuz I love 💕 cozy mornings while I journal.
•
Leave my phone plugged in and away from my morning spaces so I’m not tempted to pick it up.
•
No phone 📱 til I leave for my run 🏃‍♀️ or workout. Hard rule. Stick to it. No negotiating with myself.

The research behind dancing and stress relief is well-established.
•
Straight from pub med (as if you needed a meta-analysis to justify 💃 dancing )
•
“Twenty-eight randomized controlled trials involving 2249 eligible subjects were selected. These studies revealed that dance interventions had a significant effect on relieving depression symptoms. Exposure to a dancing intervention for at least 150 min per week was found to have reduced depression symptoms.”
