25.01.2022 A reminder of a simple way to improve your vegetable and hence overall nutrient intake. #simplenutrition #healthbehaviours

25.01.2022 And I am STILL ON EXERCISE ROUTINE NUMBER ONE! Yet I still feel like I have progressed.. Because I am starting to know the exercises myself, it gives me the opportunity to further make each one suit what my body needs today, adding in extra stretches throughout and really enjoying the movement and how it feels ... And with less focus on what is being said, the more I can focus on my bodys needs, myself, and my personal challenges to gain more clarity on the next steps..

23.01.2022 One of our back up cost effective pantry staples found at ALDI Australia to support the unsupportive food and health behaviours of being TIME poor.. Microwaveable Red and White Quinoa - Cooked and ready to serve in 1.5 minutes. Quinoa is known to be easier to digest and a more nutritious grain than brown rice.. ... #simplenutrition #foodbehaviourblitz #healthbehaviourblitz

22.01.2022 Sometimes we miss the small things that are available to us everyday that are there to help us keep well.. why is this so? Too busy? An example is the small message found on this pre-cut celery on how much is equivalent to one serve of recommended daily vegetable intake and what essential nutrients are contained within to support what parts of your body.. Are we over complicating instead of taking note of such simple offerings? Simple things done often give big results.. ... See what other supportive nutritional messages on foods you find and post if you like.. #foodbehaviourblitz #healthbehaviourblitz #simplenutrition

22.01.2022 If youre dreading that post festive indulgence feeling then maybe some of my simple supportive strategies at this workshop are the key to avoid this?? And healthy can be delicious! True #healthierchristmasspread #glutendairyfreechristmas #refinedsugarfreechristmas #healthierfestiveeating #simplenutrition

21.01.2022 How is your vegetable intake? By simply increasing your vegetables each day you can have a large impact on your health positively Try it and see for yourself for at least one week.. ... #getyourveggieson #simplehealing #simplenutrition

21.01.2022 Blitzing unsupportive food/health behaviours.. Who said eating well had to taste bad, be expensive, difficult to prepare and boring? I had this large piece of barramundi (enough for two) which was around $9 and 1/2 kilogram of green prawns (shell on) enough for 4 people $9..... The large amount of oil in this video is from the fish.. Sprinkle with curry powder or your other favourite herbs and spices (garlic, Tumeric, cumin, coriander) and a dash of olive oil before cooking and serve with your favourite salad and/or vegetables .. delicious #simplenutrition #healthbehaviours #protein

19.01.2022 Another option for the unsupportive food behaviours of lack of TIME and DISORGANISATION.. Roasted vegetables.. just add a little good quality oil (e.g. olive) and your favourite seasoning (optional).. (pictured here sweet potatoes, carrots, cloves of garlic, fennel, zucchini and broccoli).. Simple yet delicious and a great way to start working on PREVENTING chronic non-communicable DISEASE..... Add this to your favourite protein (were having roast chicken).. #foodbehaviourblitz #simplenutrition #nofilter #getyourveggieon #healthbehaviours

18.01.2022 Simply for any meal any time of day.. Cauliflower rice and frozen mixed vegetables with your favourite protein and spices.. I added lemon pepper and olive oil tuna and garlic..... #simplenutrition #getyourveggieson #supportivehealthbehaviours #keepitsimple

17.01.2022 Following on from my previous posts about eating and drinking what YOU FEEL to, WHAT to eat and drink when we feel to, the CYCLES that do and dont support the best nutrition choices for your body and eating and drinking from RULES... I wanted to expand on eating and drinking (nutrition) from RULES even those considered to be healthy... RULES OF EATING can include low fat, high protein, low carbohydrate, grain free, vegetarian, you must eat all thats on your pla...Continue reading

17.01.2022 Hi Everyone, I will be offering part two of Your well-being in the current global climate webinar next Wednesday 20th May, to further unpack the behaviours/patterns that can arise when we attempt to implement the strategies discussed in part one, to support your health during times such as now. The part one recording is available, as will the recording of part two post the live session.... It is recommended, though NOT essential, to listen to part one prior to part two attendance.

16.01.2022 Peppermint Carob Choc Balls for the festive celebrations..

16.01.2022 Following on from my previous post on how BEAUTY ROUTINES can affect FOOD BEHAVIOURS Here is an article you may be interested in by Our Everyday Life at https://oureverydaylife.com/7-reasons-why-wearing-makeup-ca The particular components that resonated with me was where it stated that women have said that even 6.5 minutes of their morning beauty routine makes all the difference in many ways to how they FEEL and are in their day from increased CONFIDENCE to being more SOCIAB...LE to supporting WOMEN to CONNECT. My favourite is how some see its benefit due to the "RITUALISTIC ASPECT" and being a way to get ready for the day "PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY" and time to "CHECK-IN" with themselves (Whitefield-Madrano, 2018). Its clear the benefit of having that time for yourself, whatever your beauty routine is each day, for how the rest of your day flows and supports including your nutrition. #beautyroutineandfoodbehaviours #selfcare #selfnurturing #simplenutrition #blitzingfoodbehaviours #healthbehavioursandbeauty

15.01.2022 An awesome simple tasty dish inspiration by Janines Gluten-Free Kitchen with essential greens and light protein to support your body during any festive season - remember, this season you can leave the stuffing for the Christmas turkey (@Unimed living, Dec 2019)... #foodbehaviourblitz #healthbehaviours #simplenutrition #getyourveggieson #loveyourgreens

15.01.2022 Blitzing unsupportive Food/Health behaviours.. I find having @Birdseye 100% broccoli and cauliflower rice as a freezer staple supports for those days when I havent made it to the grocery store or I have little time to prepare a nutritious meal.. AND.. IT CAN BE COOKED FROM FROZEN.. ... Add a little: *Olive oil *Spices *Tin Tina or other protein (I have added some leftover zucchini) This realistic video (including a little of our daughters singing in the background) shows how that may look in your kitchen - the simplicity of a nutritious meal to overcome any reason not to increase your vegetables.. #getyourveggieson #simplenutrition #healthbehaviours

14.01.2022 EXERCISE!!!! This can make many people cringe! We know we should do it as it is proven to make us feel better but not everyone does it - why? Theres plenty of excuses that get in the way - I know them well!... Did you know this is another way to support FOOD HABITS/BEHAVIOURS? My way around my health behaviour of "Im too busy" and "Ive had no luck going to gyms" is SoulFit - a simple AND easy program for everyone called GET FIT IN 15 where you can do the recording any time at your own pace and work your way to getting FIT IN 15 MINUTE SESSIONS.. Exercise helps us to keep CONNECTED to our BODY and hence be clearer on what our body needs throughout our day whether it be foods to nourish or what key changes are needed to be made for a BETTER LIFE.. I find the busier I am, the more ESSENTIAL I feel exercise is as it keeps me on track and well throughout this time including best foods to eat to support and the key decisions to act on at each moment. This is how EXERCISE SUPPORTS HEALTHY FOOD BEHAVIOURS. #foodhealthbehaviours #healthsimply #simpleexercise

Its also takes minimal time to prepare and save you loads of money..... #simplenutrition #nofilter #supportivefestiveseason #supportivenutrition #foodbehaviourblitz #healthbehaviours

11.01.2022 This article supports to put things a little more into perspective regarding COVID-19. By following keys guidelines to prevent its spread youre doing the best for everyone. Remember, alongside these key guidelines, nothing supports your immune system better than good rest and good nutrition. Also, getting unnecessarily stressed about this certainly wont support your or anyone elses immunity either.

10.01.2022 Something for the weekend.. thanks for sharing Live Love Nourish. Organic hotdogs on a grain free bun.. We often have Cleavers Organic Meat hotdogs on a Friday night or weekend as a simple easy protein that takes around 8 minutes to cook up. On their own, in a wrap, in a bun, or on our pizzas, this is a weekly staple in our household.. ...

10.01.2022 I bought this organic coriander at Woolworths recently and placed it in a lovely mug with water as it still has its roots in tact. This will allow it to keep for longer and has the added bonus of a bit of decorative greenery in my kitchen .. Coriander adds many health benefits to a meal or snack including essential health promoting antioxidants, vitamins and minerals and a key point to note is how its widely known to support heavy metal detoxification. Add to Asian soups, ...curries, and guacamole naming a few options but tends to be Indian, Thai and South American style dishes where it is traditionally used. Id say, for those new to coriander, try it on whatever you desire to and discover your palate preference - I love adding it fresh chopped onto my curried fish dishes #simplenutrition #coriander #nofilter

05.01.2022 Hi Everyone, I have been watching the events related to COVID-19 unfold over past weeks seeing the untold effects on all people from all walks of life relating to the sudden unplanned changes that have occurred. It has lead to a deeply felt appreciation for what I have learnt over many years in managing our lives and hence health and well-being through many extremely challenging times.... I want others to have the potential to feel this same sense of ease and so I felt I must share the strategies we have and still use regardless of the intensity of what we, myself and my family, are met with. Hence, next Wednesday the 8th of April I will be offering a webinar, so we can connect and workshop strategies to see this as an opportunity for positive change, whether it be in your home life, your relationship with yourself, work, nutrition, beauty, or exercise. Overall we can use this time to broaden our understanding of better health, leading to a better you. If you feel this is something that will support you, book your place on the link below and I look forward to connecting with you then. In true health, Stacey WEBINAR: Your well-being in the current global climate WHEN: Wednesday the 8th of April, 2020, at 11am AEST. PRICE: $37

05.01.2022 Good morning.. Just a reminder that part two of Your Well-being in the Current Global Climate webinar will be held tomorrow at 11am. Look forward to seeing you then. ... Alternatively a recording will be available for purchase. Stacey

03.01.2022 I decided to have a vegetarian lunch today.. Sometimes I choose this option because too much protein makes my joints stiff or makes me tired.. Protein in general is supportive to counter these symptoms of tiredness and joint stiffness however, sometimes your body needs a break dependant on what’s going on in particular organs and systems. ... These organs and systems are also influenced by your lifestyle and associated experiences, adding to the reason why supportive foods can sometimes become just the opposite. Hence why you need to listen to your body’s signs regularly as there is no one set food rule for anyone

03.01.2022 A simple breakfast for the children but high in essential nutrients to get a good start to the day. Homemade baked beans and almond bread. Almond bread recipe care of Live Love Nourish. Having high protein, low glycaemic index (slow energy release carbs and high in fibre) foods is known to give substantial longer lasting energy for a big day of learning and play. #protein #complexcarbs #lowgi #fibre #simplenutrition #nofilter #reallife

03.01.2022 Last week I posted on listening to our body when it is time to eat rather than from a rule.. I shared a brief overview of how the digestion works to support your connection with your body to appreciate what may be going on at each stage related to when we eat.. Next is what do we eat when we feel it is time to eat..... Do you feel like or crave a healthy salad? A cheeseburger? Hot chips? Beef pie? Sushi? What does this mean? Many times if we have ignored our bodys request for food we go far too long and hence have to quickly recover our blood glucose levels and tend to choose high energy foods like hot chips, cheeseburgers and so on.. thats ok Make a note next time to pay more attention to when you require food and if you dont leave it so long, you may be satisfied with a more supportive choice.. Even if it still a cheeseburger you choose in this more aware state, you have a higher chance of not needing the second one or the additional coke and chocolate bar.. It is more important to break the cycles we get into that lead to poor food choices than what we actually eat.. this forms a solid foundation to break the need for yo-yo dieting or other harsh eating regimes.. If you already make good choices, are you being truly honest with yourself what you feel like? If so great! Or are you just good at eating from rules? We will address this next.. So step one- eat when you feel to; Step two - check in what choice youre making and see if you need to alter your bodys fuel check in time.. #eatwhatyoufeel #simplenutrition #nutritionstrategies #foodybodymindconnection

03.01.2022 Yes healthy can be delicious too (simply).. #healthierchristmas #healthyfestiveeating #healthsimply #foodbehaviourblitz #healthbehaviourblitz

02.01.2022 So how is eating what you feel truly supports you going these days? Is it a lack of TIME or DISORGANISATION that is getting in your way? Here is a simple QUICHE recipe that may support during those times:... INGREDIENTS 12 eggs (for 3 peoples dinner and lunch - you can use less eggs [6] if you have less people and dont need leftovers) 3 rashers of bacon (organic nitrate free is my preference - rind off some left fat on)* 1 grated zucchini 1 grated carrot 1 small brown onion diced or 1/2 cup chopped spring onion 1 clove if garlic or 1/2 tsp. Garlic powder 1/2 tsp mixed herbs (optional) 1/2-1 cup grated Vegan Biocheese or other preferred cheese Pepper *Alternative option - replace bacon with smoked salmon or other leftover meat or omit meat altogether and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil for more flavour. METHOD Preheat oven 180 degree Celsius Add all ingredients into a bowl and mix well; Oil/butter quiche dish or other oven proof dish ; Pour mixed ingredients into the dish Put in the oven for 45min. to 1 hour (when knife is clean post when inserted in the middle and removed). BENEFITS Simplicity; Cost effective; Protein to stop sugar cravings and satisfy appetite; Fibre, vitamins and minerals from vegetables; Gluten, dairy and grain free makes it easy to digest. #simplenutrition #glutendairygrainfree #quiche #foodbehaviourblitz

02.01.2022 YOUR BEAUTY ROUTINE AND FOOD BEHAVIOURS Have you considered how you feel in yourself with regards to your hair, makeup and dress and how this affects how you eat? For example.. I will always find a way to add varying degrees of a BEAUTY ROUTINE dependant on what my day will bring..... On a non-work day my basics are shower, moisturise, simple comfortable hair-do, comfortable clothing that makes me feel good, a bit of tinted moisturiser or SPF foundation or powdered bronzer, tidy and defining of eyebrows and mascara.. This makes me feel READY for the day and have a bit of BOUNCE in my step. In the past I didnt do the minimum many times and always felt HEAVY, sluggish and lacking VITALITY.. then interestingly enough my FOOD HABITS usually followed on from this with CRAVINGS for and often consumption of things that make me feel worse.. There is something about focusing on YOURSELF and just being with you, even if it is a short moment. Often we use this time to REFLECT and ponder on all those topics we are often too busy to address. We all know when we have those moments more, opportunities for SOLUTIONS for problems are more likely to present, which could be part the reason why EMOTIONAL EATING is less likely to occur.. Or, when we feel BEAUTIFUL we can take on anything that we are met with in our day. So there you have it - FOOD BEHAVIOURS affected by YOUR (not someone elses) BEAUTY ROUTINE.. Its the SIMPLE things that can make a HUGE difference to your health. #howyoueataffectshowyoulive #foodbehaviours #simplenutrition #simplicityinlife #beautyroutineandfoodhabits

01.01.2022 BREAKING NEWS! - LISTEN TO YOUR BODY TODAY I started at session number one in the fit in 15 program from SoulFit even though Ive been participating in the sessions for over 12 months. TECHNICALLY I was up to session 5 again, but after painting all weekend, I needed to move a bit gentler but strengthen and stretch at the same time. YESTERDAY I didnt LISTEN to my body and started the day with the number of the program that I "SHOULD" have been at - I had a "crappy" day. I ...didnt feel better after the session like I normally do and the rest of my day reflected that - it was a STRUGGLE and I couldnt get my FLOW on. This then reflected in what I ATE, how I interacted and my work flow. MY POINT - Listen to your body, respond accordingly and it will support you. Have a great day :) #listentoyourbody #healthbehaviours #healthbehaviourblitz #healthsimply
