It was a throw whatever we have in a bowl for lunch type day, and that’s not a complaint. Leftover quinoa, homemade fire cider avocado oil dressing, broccoli micro greens, perfectly cooked hard egg, crushed walnuts, s&p. Easy peasy quick and delicious. Protein packed, with yummy fats and clean carbs, vitamin and mineral rich, a really good light but filling energy boost. It’s just what I needed on day three of heavy menstruation, sigh.

Many critical activities occur during the sleep state. The internal organs rest and recover, tissue repair themselves, muscles grow and proteins synthesize. Our bodies release hormones that regulate appetite control, stress, growth, and metabolism. When we are asleep, our memory consolidation happens. This allows the formation and storage of new memories which is essential for learning.
Quality sleep leads to increased energy, strong immune system, creativity, better focus, improved mood, reduced anxiety, and increased libido. Sleep deprivation can cause weight gain, increased risk of chronic disease, and a decline in cognitive function. Yikes!
This is why when my cat wakes me up every hour during the night and then has the audacity to nap all day long while I have to work, I find myself in a difficult position. It’s unfortunate how adorable he is despite being an absolute monster at times. Thankfully, I started morning stretching and meditation as well as evening stretching and journaling to settle my mind and make room for more peaceful rest. I am relieved to say that alone has helped me so much.

Cooking always helps to take my mind off my mind if that makes any sense. I’m working on recipes this week.. I think these are a keeper. Anti-inflammatory energy bars. My website is under construction still but I’ll have my recipe share up and running soon, thanks for being patient.

It’s time to act yet I feel frozen. I’ve noticed I go through these phases of extreme overwhelm that bleed into a creative block. All the ideas and plans I’ve made seem so much further away than I imagined. I know this is a result of working at full speed for so long, it’s become difficult to recognize progress at a steady pace. I exist in a culture so tightly bound to framed exhaustion, picturesque model of a workhorse, sometimes I forget to give myself the credit I deserve. I forget that I need to take time to breathe and recharge if I’m going to continue moving forward.

Stewed collard greens & black eye peas with a side of the crispiest spicy potato wedges. I’m happy, and it was easy as hell. I’ll have this recipe up on my blog soon but feel free to dm me for it!

I hope your Wednesday is going smoothly. I’ve been busy making future designs, organizing my space and clearing my head. Looking forward despite obvious uncertainty in the world and doing my best not to get distracted by the overwhelm. Sometimes I feel defeated, my efforts aren’t making as much of an impact and I feel misunderstood and timid in defense. I still believe I have much to offer the world and I stay determined to continue creating and sharing my kind heart with you. Thanks for listening (reading?) thanks for being here. Take good care of yourselves.

Enjoyed a glass of home brewed iced tea this afternoon. Green tea with orange peel and a little pomegranate concentrate. Very delicious and bright, a necessary re-fueling to get me over the mid-day hump.

Busy week over, phew! Nothing in fridge, Ug. Ok- quick trip to and ta da! Just like that I’m surrounded by goodies 🌿 I was silly today and shopped without a list but grabbing veggies that called my name will make for an interesting meal plan this week and keep the appreciated spontaneity in my kitchen. I have been craving collard greens and the broccoli rabe looked too good to pass, struggling with anemia these days so tons of beets to keep my blood production up, purple carrots for those super antioxidants that combat inflammation, rosemary for tea and to make a healthy hair tonic, cranberry/pomegranate concentrate for extra potassium and iron.. I think for an impulse shop.. I did pretty damn good. I’m so thankful to have this access.

I have never been one to make a “New Years resolution” let alone stick to them. Life is unpredictable and in my opinion, setting these abnormally high expectations adds unnecessary pressure on a goal you’re already intending to meet. Don’t let the hype skew your focus- you’re on the right path, trust yourself and keep moving forward. (Pictured): This year I will keep building tangible dreams, be a better friend to myself, choose peace and progress over frustration, harbor gratitude for what is and maintain hope for what will be, cease activities that do not serve me, and help my community thrive in every way that I can. Call it what you want, I’m calling it a friendly reminder that I am blessed and have so much to offer the world regardless of what it has for me.

Indifferent yet still loving; trying to redefine my relationship with myself... Standing at 5ft 2in, with a big heart and even bigger thoughts, I examine this body (and mind) in the mirror. I have known her my whole life and yet, I always feel like I am still really getting to know her. She is very good at adapting and compromise, so good that, I don’t believe her sometimes. I look at her and I think, what are you hiding from me? We are supposed to be friends and you don’t always treat me like one, I pray with intensity to my reflection. I can lay out as many designs as I can conjure but in reality I struggle with believing in myself. In my head I want to blame mom or dad, sisters or brother, cousins or friends but deep down I know it is my fault.

Here is the best part, I, Liana Orazi, accept my faults. I love them, I vow to learn every lesson with neutrality because when I see and understand my darkness can I relish on the bright side. I never thought of myself as special, until now. I wasn’t a very good Irish dancer, I wasn’t the star of the school play or soccer team, I didn’t excel in Math or any subject for that matter. I realize now, I never knew how to vocalize what I truly needed and wanted (I was afraid to) and just did what I was told. That trait has certainly translated into my adult life to an extent. Learning to say no to things I don’t want to be a part of (and yes to things I really do!) and showing up for myself has been vital these last few years. Certain things in life are harder to sever from but in acknowledging that, I find the motivation to explore my desires in ways that are true to my heart. Growing even when I feel stuck.. My ability to persevere in the face of indifference, that is something I am proud of and thankful for.

When I say join the club.. I mean to encourage you to stick around and engage. I hope you feel like you belong in this community and take away something from what I share. This is a safe place for everyone.

Health isn’t exclusive. We all want to feel good and be better.. and we deserve to. Unlearning conventional food systems and reconnecting with your roots is a feat no one should do alone.
*
You’re not into weight loss.. me neither! I’m into NUTRITION and they are not the same thing. You or someone you know deal with anxiety or depression.. stick around! I can help you develop a new perspective and gain a little clarity.. You love eating but don’t like cooking.. stick around! I’ll show you simple and delicious recipes to try. Plato once said "Knowledge is the food of the soul" and I say, FOOD is the knowledge of the body. It's time to learn more about ourselves on and Off the Plate.
