Chia seeds, a nutrient-rich pseudo-cereal, are underused despite boasting high levels of protein, more than many of the common cereals out there. Being gluten-free, they're ideal for those with celiac disease. Chia seeds are a powerful antioxidant that combat free radicals and may help prevent chronic diseases like diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and cancer.

I mix the chia seeds, cocoa and fine oats with the yoghurts and milk in a large mug or mason jar. Then stir in the blueberries and nuts. Leave it in the fridge overnight or for at least 3 hours to give the chia time to absorb some fluid.
Give it a mix before eating.

Prioritising well-being can encompass so many different areas. It's not just about physical health, although that's definitely a big part of it. It also includes our mental and emotional health, our social connections, and even our sense of purpose and fulfilment.

Remember that no matter where we are on our journey, we can always make choices that support your well-being and build a healthier future. It's not just about physical health, although that's definitely a big part of it. It also includes our mental and emotional health, our social connections, and even our sense of purpose and fulfilment.

𝐌𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐰𝐞𝐥𝐥-𝐛𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐠 - managing stress, practicing mindfulness, or nurturing positive self-talk.

𝐅𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 & 𝐩𝐮𝐫𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐞 in your daily life or pursue in activities you find fulfilling.

Whatever it is, taking small steps can make a significant difference over time. It's about progress, not perfection, and being kind and patient with ourselves along the way.

It appears that our dinner plates have gradually increased in size over the years.

🍴In the 𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗹𝘆 𝟭𝟵𝟬𝟬𝘀 our dinner plates were around 9.6 inches/24 cm in diameter.

🥣 In the 𝗠𝗶𝗱-𝟮𝟬𝘁𝗵 𝗖𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘂𝗿𝘆 they increase to about 10 inches/25.4cm in diameter.

🥄 And then, 𝐌𝐨𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐧 𝐓𝐢𝐦𝐞𝐬 came along and now the size of our standard dinner plate is 11 to 12 inches/ 27.9cm to 30.4cm. Worryingly some of us have dinner plates that are even larger at around 13 inches/33cm.

⚖️ If you're looking for ways to control food portions, one simple trick is to dish up your food onto a smaller plate. 🤷‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷‍♂️ Try it and see if it works for you.

💬 𝙎𝙥𝙚𝙖𝙠 𝙩𝙤 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧𝙨𝙚𝙡𝙛 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙙𝙣𝙚𝙨𝙨. Don't be your own bully.
𝗪𝗵𝘆?

Studies show that talking negatively to yourself can actually have some negatives effects on your body and mind.

𝙃𝙤𝙬?

😰 You may feel more stressed and worried - Negative self-talk can make you focus on the bad things and imagine the worst happening. This can make you feel super stressed and anxious all the time.

😔 It can make you feel down or even depressed - Constantly putting yourself down can really lower your mood and make you feel sad.

😟 Your self-confidence goes down - If you keep telling yourself you're not good enough, you'll start to believe it, and your confidence will shrink.

🤔 It's harder to focus - When your inner voice is being mean, it can be distracting and make it tough to concentrate on your tasks, work and hobbies.

❌ You might avoid trying new things - If you're always thinking you'll fail, you might not even want to try new things, which means you could miss out on great experiences.

𝙃𝙤𝙬 𝙞𝙩 𝙖𝙛𝙛𝙚𝙘𝙩𝙨 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙗𝙤𝙙𝙮

💤 It can disrupt your sleep - Stress from negative thoughts can make it hard to fall asleep or stay asleep.

😑 Your body can become tense - When you're stressed, your muscles can get tight, which can lead to headaches, stomach aches, and other discomfort.

🤧 It can weaken your immune system - Continued stress can make it harder for your body to fight off germs, so you might get sick more easily.

🫀 It can even affect your heart - Some studies have found that long-term stress from negative thinking might not be good for your heart.

🧠 Think of it like this, your brain and body are really good listeners. If you're constantly feeding them negative messages, they can start to react as if those things are actually happening.

Being kinder to yourself with your words, your brain and body can also learn to respond to positive self-talk in a better way! It takes practice, but it's totally worth it.
