If you’ve been following me for a while, you might know a few things about me. Like that I strongly dislike the word “diet”. Or that I can’t get enough of asparagus. Or that I smear my face with coconut oil every day. Or that I have a few auto-immune conditions. But did you know […]
Ah, the years spent trying to find the perfect face cream. Either they all have too much of this and not enough of that. Or the other way around. Or they just plain old have too many chemicals in them. That’s how it was for me. I tried everything from drugstore brands, over pharmacy brands, […]
There is this one food I can’t get enough of right now! It’s a true multi-talent in terms of health benefits. (Yay!) And super versatile in terms of preparing it. You can fry it, steam it, boil it, broil it, grill it, mix it…. Endless! In this post, I’ll give you the low-down on my […]
There are a lot of suggestions of what we should eat, what we shouldn’t eat and what we should perhaps, maybe eat (but only if it has a pinch of seaweed on it). These things are generally dubbed “diets” and are equally generally incredibly misleading. What seems to have stuck around as a guide is […]
…but not of the candy kind! I think you might have guessed that though. Anyway, one of the most common questions I get is about who my health-heroes are. So today I thought I’d share some of my own personal health gurus with you. People that inspire me, people who get my nutrition and health […]
I promise. It will be a short post today. Short, but valuable. Whatever the reason is that you currently don’t have a kitchen to make your usual, incredibly healthy and nutritious home cooked meals in; you’ll still need to eat. And preferably keep up the healthy habits you’ve worked so hard to maintain. So whether you’re […]
Sometimes life is just not what you thought it would be. You haven’t reached or achieved what you thought you would have by now, there’s something that drags you down or maybe an autoimmune issue is blossoming, keeping you from doing things you want and have to do. At times like these, self motivation doesn’t […]
Recently, whilst visiting a restaurant (fine, it was date night with my husband), I did something ridiculously stupid. Something so dumb I wanted to punch myself a little afterwards. I should have known better, especially considering what I do for a living… I should have asked what, exactly, was in the “basil crust” on the […]
A word of warning: this is not a positive blog post. If you’re looking for a pick-me-up from me today, stop reading right now. Because this is real, unapologetic and potentially annoying to some. You’ve been warned. I need to motivate myself out of a major rut right now. I just want to give […]
I’ve been there countless times before. And so have you, I bet. That second it takes for all your motivation to just run off of you, leaving you feeling tired, hopeless and in a general state of “why bother”-ness. Motivation, you little rascal, why can’t you just stay put and be my life long partner, […]
