18.01.2022 Double tap if you love ice-cream The food you eat does affect your mood, but maybe not in the way you think. Yep, I am sure you get a surge of pure joy and happiness while you are eating that delicious ice-cream But have you ever really stopped to consider or even noticed how you feel a short time after eating it? Have you ever considered how you feel after eating any of the foods you eat?... Studies show that your gut is responsible for 90% of the messages that the brain receives to help determine the health of our body and mind. This means that the food we eat has a very important and direct impact on our mental and brain health - not just our physical health. Eating for your mental wellness is important and so follow along if you would like to learn more. See more
15.01.2022 The other day I was asked what are the most important traits I would like to help foster in my kids. I honestly have never been asked this before and not ever consciously stopped to consider this while raising my kids. Having being asked this question though my answer was clear. If my kids grow up to have an attitude of gratitude, be resilient and empathetic humans I will happily give myself a pat on the back for a job well done... What are the traits in yourself or others that you value the most? See more
13.01.2022 In a year where our lives have changed beyond recognition. Are you ok? The lines between work, school and home have been blurred like never before. This year parents took on the mind-blowing task of both supporting their kids during remote learning, whilst working their jobs from the kitchen bench, the dining table or if they were lucky a little study nook in a corner of the house. ... This year kids were expected to stop doing what kids do best. Stop seeing their friends every day, stop playing sports, stop playing on the monkey bars & swing This year singles people in Victoria were told to self isolate & businesses told to close their doors I know for me personally this year has been one where I had to put the pause button on my business. I did this for so many reasons. Mainly because 3 young kids needing my 24/7 undivided attention whilst learning to manage their new normal was my main priority. This decision has been challenging for me. My business is all about helping others live calm, healthy and happy lives with a focus on mental health. Something that has become such a massive topic over the last 6 months as more and more people struggle with feelings of stress, anxiety and overwhelm. Rates of depression have increased significantly and yet here I was just trying to get through my days with my own and my families mental health intact. Watching this conversation happen has been heartwarming (improving awareness and overcoming the stigma is one of the positives), heartbreaking (that so many are struggling) and also incredibly frustrating (that I haven't had the capacity to contribute in a more meaningful way). Here's what I am learning though, sometimes it is ok to let go, to do what serves you best. To recognise what is important to your own mental health and treat self-care as your #1 priority. So today you might want to reach out to a friend and ask them #ruok ? Or you might need to ask this of yourself and reach out for help. If you are concerned about someone close to you and are unsure of how to start the conversation @ruok has so many wonderful resources to help you navigate this sometimes challenging question
08.01.2022 Anyone else? Fellow Victorians perhaps? Feel a little like this? Just when it looks like things might possibly return to normal COVID goes and throws us back into lockdown!... My little brain is exploding at the idea that I could be thrown back into remote learning with the kids. Here's the thing I realised last night as I was tossing and turning in my bed, trying to calm my mind and find some way to let sleep in. It is these times that I really need to dig deep, to dive into my wellbeing toolkit, to nourish my mind with healthy food, movement and mindfulness. I would love to hear how you are navigating the challenges that 2020 keep throwing at us. What's in your survival toolkit? Comment below - I am sure we can all use the support and ideas.
