25.01.2022 It is often the stories we tell ourselves about our own limitations and inabilities (that are actually BS) that stop us reaching our goals... or even trying to attempt them in the first place. If you feel you 'can't' do something you desire (insert out of comfort-zone desire - e.g. lose weight, speak publicly, heal from a disease, learn a new skill, change jobs, leave an unhealthy relationship). Make sure you analyse that belief with interrogation style intensity and show yourself the proof (which if you do it honestly, I bet you won't find) as your beliefs are likely the number one thing standing between you and your greater life.

23.01.2022 Ahhhh... love this so much. With kiddliwinks at home right now, this is important to remember

21.01.2022 Did this little interview yesterday If you are in your 40s or 50s and having some hormonal or period issues, this might be worth a listen PS. Love how she calls me 'Dr Vanessa' In the US, Naturopaths have this title and I did not have the heart to correct her. https://www.facebook.com/Nourishdoc/videos/900981614017688/

21.01.2022 So excited that my colleague Mary and I are guest speakers on this amazing Fertility Summit. If you know anyone struggling to have a family, you can share this link, there is an abundance of wisdom in these three days of expert talks, and it is all FREE! There is an encore day too on Thursday EST if you have missed any of the talks :-) https://bit.ly/3bLnKRl

20.01.2022 Amazing news! Well done to everyone that has worked together to make this possible!

19.01.2022 Found this on my desk yesterday morning... best Practice Manager ever! Thank you Sarah my friend

18.01.2022 I am not sure if it is the Italian Nona or the Naturopath in me but I really get off on feeding my loved ones healthy food. We have been doing a lot of green smoothies in the mornings, which if you tried blindfolded, I swear you would not know there is a single vegetable it it! So tasty! This one has: Water, spinach (like 5 handfuls!), celery, broccoli, parsley, mint, cucumber, avocado, lime, pineapple, banana, ginger.... You can add whatever you like, but I try for a ratio of 70% veg, 30% fruit and sometimes add a bit of stevia to keep the sweetness but keep the natural sugars down. It is seriously such an easy way to get in all that fibre, antioxidants, vitamins, minerals and enzymes first up in the morning. I dare you to give it a try, trust me!

17.01.2022 What’s the deal with bread? Is it nutritious friend or dangerous foe ? Well the answer is it depends.... It depends on the quality, it depends on your body. I believe bread can be a healthy part of a well-rounded diet if it is nutrient-dense and prepared well (think dark rye, long-fermented sourdough) I am not talking that fluffy white stuff you can get for a dollar and squish into a doughy ball. Every part of my European DNA screams YES to bread (especially dipped in extra virgin olive oil or with lashings of grass-fed butter), but there are many things to consider before inhaling that warm crusty goodness. Here are the caveats. How do you feel when you eat bread? Does it bloat you? Give you stomach pain? Make you want a nanna nap? Are you sensitive to gluten or grains? Do you have any Coeliacs in your immediate family? Do you have an autoimmune or inflammatory health condition? Do you have PCOS or diabetes? If you answered yes to any of these then you might like to give bread a wider berth. But if you tolerate bread well and are generally well and vital, here are some tips: try to choose a good quality bread (think heavy, solid, dark - you could hurt someone if you hit them over the head with it - unlike a white bread pillow fight). Try to choose long-ferment sourdough (easier to digest, more nutrients and less phytates and lectins and if you ask me much tastier). Over time mix up your grains (try rye, barley, spelt, ancient grains etc.) so you don’t build up an intolerance by mono-eating. Also, organic is best to optimise nutrition and avoid glyphosate contamination, which is a whole other conversation in itself! Here was a super quick on-the-run breakfast this week - dark rye sourdough topped with ricotta, tomato and basil from the garden. Coupled with a protein smoothie, it was a great start to my day.

15.01.2022 Ooohhh I like this!

15.01.2022 I just wanted to share with you this amazing #FoodMatters Nutrition Certification Program that I was honoured to contribute to creating. I am blown away by the level of expertise brought together in one program and the depth of information James and Laurentine have collated. If you are struggling with food choices, or have a keen interest in learning more about nutrition, this program is amazing value and covers so many fantastic topics such as nutrition, stress, sleep, detox...ification, gut health, hormones (that was my module of course!), chronic disease, lifestyle choices and many other health conditions.

14.01.2022 My kind of pharmacy!

12.01.2022 Do you keep your seeds and nuts in the fridge? If you don't you should! Nuts and seeds contain high amounts of lipids (oils) that are very sensitive to heat, oxygen and light, and that oxidise readily, especially once out of their protective shells. Once oxidised, these lipids are very harmful to the body.... Make sure you keep your nuts and seeds in the fridge or freezer and use them up as quickly as possible. If you have a bag of cashews that has been at the back of the pantry for a year or two, do your body a favour and throw it in the bin

07.01.2022 I absolutely love having canned chickpeas, beans and lentils in the cupboard for a super fast lunch addition. They make a salad so much more satisfying, and provide fibre, protein, slow release carbs and general deliciousness

06.01.2022 Oh my! This gave me goosebumps. How beautiful.

04.01.2022 Happy Spring! Vanessa has a new clinic location! - https://mailchi.mp//happy-springvanessa-has-a-new-clinic-l

03.01.2022 This is a beautiful global meditation event that will be held at 5am tomorrow. HeartMath are leaders in scientific research of the heart and of consciousness.

01.01.2022 So grateful every. single. day. for where I live and work. Beautiful Friday views from my office today

01.01.2022 Snacking. Should you or shouldn’t you? In some nutrition circles it is as controversial as elections. In my opinion, this is a complex question and one that really depends on the individual. ... If you train intensively, are pregnant, have stress/adrenal issues, struggle with blood sugar regulation issues or experience low energy, the answer may be yes. If you get super hangry between meals, it could be a hormonal issue or could also be a sign that you are not consuming enough quantity or protein or good fats at your main meals (e.g. a bowl of corn flakes with a coffee just won’t cut it until noon). Also always do a self-awareness check-in, making sure it is not just habit or boredom. If you do choose to snack, it should contain a good amount of protein, a bit of fat and of course plants to help maintain good blood sugar, nourish your body and prevent you rummaging through the pantry half an hour later. I have put together a little snack guide for some healthy inspiration for snacks that you can prepare in advance (so you don’t have to shake the vending machine at work or give in to temptation at the petrol station register). You can download it free and will find it halfway down on my home page :-) Happy snacking! Vanessa https://vanessalamaro.com.au
