"There's no such thing as bad weather, only unsuitable clothing".

Don’t let the colder weather stop your outdoor walks or workouts. Dress in layers so you can adjust as your body warms up. Start with a moisture-wicking base layer, add an insulating middle layer, and finish with a windproof or waterproof outer layer if needed. Wear gloves and a hat to protect your extremities, as they lose heat quickly.

Stick to bright colours or reflective gear if it’s darker outside. Staying active in the crisp air can keep your energy up and your mood lifted.

At this time of year there is a great selection of fresh root vegetables available. These are a great source of fiber, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, which support digestive and immune health, and provide a steady source of energy. They are also rich in complex carbohydrates and relatively low in calories, making them a nutrient-dense choice for a healthy diet.

Eating seasonal vegetables is also beneficial as they are typically fresher, more nutrient-dense, and tastier than out-of-season produce. It also supports the local economy by buying from local farmers, and it is better for the environment due to reduced transportation and energy costs.

It's a win-win all round, so get your soup season started and enjoy the flavor.

Fall is now upon us and the days are getting cooler. But don't despair. Cooler nights are perfect for better sleep. Keep your bedroom between 65 and 68°F, as this is the ideal range for quality rest.

If the chill makes it hard to relax, try a warm drink like decaf tea or hot water with lemon before bed. Avoid caffeine or sugary drinks, as they can disrupt your sleep. Switch to warmer bedding if needed, but don’t overheat—your body sleeps best when it stays cool.

Getting back into movement after surgery is important but should be done carefully.

Start with gentle activities like walking or stretching, as approved by your doctor. Focus on improving circulation and preventing stiffness without pushing too hard.

Pay attention to your body—if something feels painful, stop and rest. Gradually increase intensity over time, following your care team’s advice.

Consistent, gentle movement supports recovery and helps you regain strength.

What you eat can speed up recovery after surgery.

Include plenty of protein-rich foods like eggs, fish, or beans to repair tissues. Add fruits and vegetables for vitamins and antioxidants to reduce inflammation. Stay hydrated to support healing and digestion.

If you’re on pain meds, include fibre-rich foods like oatmeal or leafy greens to prevent constipation. Small, balanced meals can make a big difference in how you feel.

Recovering from surgery? Sleep is key to healing. Try to sleep on your back or in a position recommended by your doctor to avoid straining the surgical area. Use extra pillows for support if needed.

Stick to a consistent bedtime routine to help your body relax, even if you’re napping during the day. Avoid caffeine in the afternoon and keep your bedroom quiet and comfortable.

Rest is when your body does its repair work, so make it a priority.

Regular exercise helps your body fight off illness. Aim for moderate activity like brisk walking, cycling, or yoga for 30 minutes most days. Avoid overtraining, as it can weaken your immune system instead of strengthening it.

If you’re already feeling under the weather, stick to light movement or rest until you recover. Staying active keeps your body resilient during cold and flu season.

10/25/2025

What you eat can boost your immune system. Include foods rich in vitamin C like oranges, peppers, and strawberries. Add zinc-rich options like nuts, seeds, and lean meats to your meals.

Choose whole foods over processed snacks and drink plenty of water to stay hydrated. Herbal teas with ginger or honey can soothe your throat and support immunity.

Small changes in your diet can help you stay healthy.

10/24/2025

Cold and flu season is upon us but there are ways to fend it off...

Good sleep is your best defence against illness. Aim for seven to nine hours each night to keep your immune system strong. Stick to a regular sleep schedule, even on weekends, to help your body recover and recharge. Avoid screens for at least an hour before bed to improve sleep quality.

Better sleep means better protection during cold and flu season.

Finding time to exercise as a busy executive can be tough, but it’s possible. Schedule short, effective workouts into your calendar, just like any other meeting.

A 20-minute session of bodyweight exercises or a brisk walk can make a big difference - even if you never leave the office.

If you travel often, pack resistance bands or use hotel gyms. Consistency matters more than duration, so focus on showing up regularly.

When do you find time to exercise?

10/17/2025

Healthy eating doesn’t have to be complicated, even with a packed schedule. Start by planning your meals ahead of time to avoid last-minute unhealthy choices.

Choose meals with lean proteins, whole grains, and plenty of vegetables. Keep healthy snacks like nuts, fruit, or yoghurt on hand for busy days.

Avoid skipping meals, as it can lead to energy crashes and overeating later. Small, consistent changes will improve your energy and focus.

What's your go-to meal when you're in a rush?

10/16/2025

Constantly feeling tired? It might be the caffeine...

If your day runs on coffee, your sleep might be paying the price. Limit caffeine after 2 PM since it can stay in your system for up to eight hours. Create a wind-down routine with activities like reading or meditation to signal your brain it’s time to rest.

Keep your bedroom cool and dark, ideally between 18 and 20 degrees. Stick to a consistent sleep schedule, even on weekends. Better sleep leads to sharper decisions and more energy.

Make sure you follow along for more sleep, eating and exercise advice.
