Sick of feeling sick? 🥴

I’ve been there, and i just wished i knew the answers back then when i was constantly nauseous!

It’s all about:
-hormonal balance (all hormones even sleep, thyroid and hunger hormones)
-a diet high in nutrients to support your body’s health
-less stress and more habits that destress

Ready for no more nausea?
☀️ Follow @growithalina for more cause and remedy posts, i love making them 💕

Vitamin C season 🍊🍋🍅
We need vitamin C for our immunity, and the back to school season, pre-winter is the perfect time to fill up your vitamin C boots! 🥾
Think lemons and oranges are the only food high in vitamin C?
Allow me to open your eyes…
Peppers and tomatoes are HIGHER in vitamin C than citrus fruits!

Enjoy tomatoes, peppers, lemons, oranges, kiwi, strawberries and broccoli daily. Eat them raw for higher vitamin C content☀️

I post it daily because I drink it daily - yep, this is the Collagen and Cacao that has become part of my morning routine!♥️

🎢 When we wake in the morning the hormone, cortisol, is at it’s highest - because it wakes us up! It’s our bodies natural stress response, so when we throw a cuppa coffee on top of that, we over stimulate the nervous system thus showing as hormonal upset, anxiety, insulin resistance, sugar crashes and holding onto that weight around the middle - often referred to as the ‘cortisol roll’

But, if you’re like me, I like a ritual in the morning which is why swapping my cuppa caffeine to Ceremonial Grade Cacao is my alternative - providing the body with something protein and fat focused, this sustains our stress to avoid a crash/hormone disruption than can manifest in multiple modalities, including the skin. ☹️ Within half an hour of waking, I ensure I’ve hydrated with a big glass of water💧 and head to the kitchen to boil the kettle and sip on my frothy chocolatey delight 🤩…

To make → Combine 1 table spoon of Ceremonial Cacao (I like @nourishandglowdrinks @cacaocalling_bygemma and @nibbed_cacao ), 2 table spoons of collagen, (I use @barebiology or @motionnutrition ) and whisk/blend with water. For a more indulgent frothy mix, you can also blend one table spoon of cacao, two tablespoons of collagen with ½ cup of nut milk (I like @plenishdrinks cashew). Pour into a mug and top with boiling water.

Now remember, 100% cacao does have a natural caffeine stimulating effect ⚡️ so this wouldn’t be your ideal hot coco before bed, but it adds a spring to my step before the I’ve even got out of my PJ’s 🤩

Feel FAB & festive 🎄

Ok, it’s the start of the Christmas celebration weekend and my client inbox is being filled with similar questions📧 as well as myself questioning what I’m going to do to keep myself feeling great but still enjoying mince pies, mulled wine and baileys hot chocolates…🤔

💦 Hydration - upping your water intake is going to be your best friend over the next few weeks! Not to forget that alcohol and caffeine instantly dehydrate the body and can also dysregulate your sleep pattern/blood sugar stability…up the water, treat yourself to some cosy herbal teas like nettle, fennel and peppermint to enjoy between festivities!

🥬 Fibre - we’re moving away from those regular fibre rich meals and having a little more sugar and spice which isn’t always so nice. Sugary treats can slow digestive transit & mess with our💩 routine. Adding an additional side of greens when eating out, a handful from the nut bowl before the chocolates to keep blood glucose stable and enjoying one ‘normal’ meal each day will help keep things moving in the right direction - for me, keeping breakfast ‘normal’ means everything can be eaten with ease!

⏰ Routine and you time - you’re probably heading to family, and moving away from the routine that makes you feel best, fear not! Keep one of two things in your daily routine that are non-negotiable no matter where you are! For me, that means packing my @nourishandglowdrinks ceremonial cacao and my @mysensate for those morning moments of calm before the rest of the family wake up!

I for one am truly excited for the new year and all it will bring for my health👀…but it’s Christmas & we’re here for the 80:20 rule! Life is to be enjoyed with the finer festivities! Don’t label the food as naughty or nice, just nourish your body between the celebrations!

Have a great weekend😜

‘I’m great in the week and fall of the waggon at the weekend'🍸 one of the biggest misconceptions about being working with a nutritional therapist is that you can’t enjoy the more indulgent things in life without ‘falling off the wagon’ 🤪🤪

To those people I say:
👏🏼 what ‘wagon’ are you on? Is it achievable or unrealistic? What is the reason you’re on said ‘wagon’ & have you got the right balance?

👀👀 Now don’t get me wrong, there are definitely times for intervention to be put in place when going through a period of healing or to prevent damage & I’ve been there too - BUT having said that … In my practice I like to make sure clients have the perfect balance, i always start with what we can ADD to someones lifestyle rather than what we can take away... which is also why you’ll find me with a green juice and matcha one day and a margarita on the dance floor of the early hours another 🤷🏻‍♀️ I call it the 80:20 rule & ALWAYS make sure life is enjoyed with the finer things for my clients too😉

Have a great weekend😜

I cried after my first lecture about blood cells & told my family I’m quitting after failing my biomedicine exam…I’m so glad I didn’t because yesterday I was awarded an achievement award for clinical aptitude 2022 whilst graduating with a distinction as a Naturopathic Nutritional Therapist 🎓 (better late than never)
-
I enrolled thinking I’d learn how to ‘eat healthier’, instead I studied the anatomy & physiology of every body system, the biochemical systems and what happens when they come out of balance. I met the most incredible network of people along the way, some of which are friends for life❣️

I knew there was something ‘wrong’ with me and no one could tell me what it was or why - I discovered a whole new outlook on healthcare that is individualised and focuses on the root of the problem. Regaining control of my health is one of the most empowering things I have ever done - and I will support you to do the same💪🏼
