๐Ÿ”ฅTIP: Boost your energy with regular posture checks.

Here is yet ANOTHER reason to make it a point to sit up tallโ€ฆ

It can help keep your energy up!

Sitting with good posture means your body doesnโ€™t have to work as hard to hold you in place (because itโ€™s in natural alignment), plus you can breathe more deeply.

Ironically, one reason we slouch is that weโ€™re tired โ€“ and it just makes it worse.

So, make it a point to check in with yourself every 15-30 minutes to make sure youโ€™re sitting tall.

Have you ever noticed a link between your energy and your posture?๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡

๐Ÿ˜‹I have a light & delicious lower-carb dinner recipe for you today.

Scallops give any meal a special occasion vibe and the fun fact is that they take only a few minutes to sear.

This dish comes together even faster because it uses a packaged slaw mix.

๐Ÿ‘‰If you want a heartier meal, serve it with a side of rice or roasted sweet potatoes.

Seared Scallops with Green Goddess Slaw
(makes 4 servings)

1 avocado, peeled and seed removed
1 cup (170 g) low-fat plain Greek yogurt
1 large lemon, juiced
ยฝ cup (15 g) chopped fresh parsley
Pinch of sea salt
16 oz. (455 g) bag of broccoli or veggie slaw mix
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 lb (455 g) sea scallops, patted dry
Freshly ground pepper

Make the dressing: In a blender, combine the avocado, yogurt, lemon juice, parsley, and a pinch of salt. Cover tightly and blend until smooth. If you want a thinner dressing, add a small amount of water, ยฝ tsp at a time.

Prepare the slaw: Place the slaw mix in a large salad bowl and pour the avocado mixture over it, tossing to coat.

Sear the scallops: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place the scallops in the pan and cook for about 1-2 minutes per side (until browned). Remove from the heat, and sprinkle with pepper and additional salt if desired.

Place on a serving plate with the slaw. Enjoy!

๐Ÿ™ˆ
๐Ÿ™‰
๐Ÿ™Š

๐Ÿ”ฅMYTH ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Being able to hold a plank for a good amount of time (1-2+ minutes) is a great sign your core muscles ARE strong and have a lot of endurance.

In fact, if you get my emails you might have seen the โ€œplank testโ€ for core strength!

But for most people, itโ€™s not necessary to hold your planks for more than 1 or 2 minutes during your everyday workouts.

Instead, you can mix up your exercises and include more challenging plank variations. Thereโ€™s an almost endless list of options to make it โ€œfunโ€ (depending on your definition of fun. ๐Ÿ˜œ)

There are one-armed and one-legged planks, walking planks, spiderman planks, side planks, rotating planks, and the list goes on and on!

What do you think of planks โ€“ love โ€˜em, like โ€˜em, or leave โ€˜em?

๐Ÿฅ˜Today I present to you โ€ฆ a curry recipe that doesnโ€™t take hours to simmer on the stove.

Thatโ€™s because it uses a store-bought curry simmer sauce, which helps this come together in just minutes.

๐Ÿ‘‰TIP: When you choose a simmer sauce, be sure to check the nutrition label for sodium and choose one that is below 20% of your daily value.

Fast & Easy Chickpea Curry
(makes 4 servings)

1 Tbsp avocado or coconut oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1 large bell pepper, chopped
2 large carrots, sliced medium-thin
1 15-oz (425 g) can of chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1 cup (240 ml) curry simmer sauce
ยฝ cup (120 ml) vegetable broth
6 big handfuls of baby spinach
2 cups (380 g) of cooked rice

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chopped vegetables and cook, cook, stirring often, for about 5 minutes, until they begin to brown.

Add the chickpeas, simmer sauce, and broth. Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally. Lower the heat to medium-low and continue to simmer until the vegetables are tender, 5-8 minutes. Stir in the spinach in batches and cook until wilted.

Remove from the heat and serve your curry over rice.

๐Ÿ‘‰The Thomas Test! (how to tell if your hips are too tight)

If you sit or stand in one place a lot, thereโ€™s a good chance you have tight hips. Even working out a lot can set you up for hip tightness.

Iโ€™ve got an easy test for you that you can do at home to check if your hips are tight. Itโ€™s called the Thomas Test.

Hereโ€™s how to do it:
Sit at the edge of your bed โ€“ the back of your thighs should be supported, your knees at the edge at a 90-degree angle, and your lower legs hanging toward the floor.

Now lie back, bringing both knees toward your chest so your back is flat against the bed.

While holding one leg close to your chest, slowly extend your other leg and let it hang off the edge of the bed, from the knee down (keep your back, neck, and shoulders against the bed).

If your hanging knee is at an 80- to 90-degree angle and you donโ€™t feel a lot of tightness, you passed the test! Now try the other side.

๐Ÿง˜ Let me know if you do this โ€ฆ and if you passed the test!

If you prefer to avoid chocolate chips, try cacao nibs.

Avoid the temptation of cutting these before they have cooled. If you cut them too soon they will turn into a crumbly (but delicious) mess.

(๐˜”๐˜ข๐˜ฌ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด 16 ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ท๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜จ๐˜ด)

3 cups (240 g) rolled oats
ยพ cup (190 g) natural peanut butter or almond butter
โ…“ cup (110 g) honey or maple syrup
ยฝ cup (120 g) mini chocolate chips
2 eggs
Pinch of sea salt

Preheat your oven to 350ยบF/177ยบC and line a 9x9 inch (23x23 cm) baking dish with parchment paper.

Combine all of the ingredients in a large mixing bowl and stir until well combined.

Transfer the mixture to a baking dish & press into the pan so that it forms an even layer.

Bake for 14-17 minutes. Itโ€™s done when the center feels firm(ish) and the edges are becoming brown. Remove from the oven and let cool completely on a rack before slicing into 16 squares.

Try not to eat them all at once!

Avoid buying foods just because theyโ€™re โ€œhealthyโ€ โ€“ if youโ€™re not going to eat them, they arenโ€™t a good deal
