A little something about me - I love a little something sweet every day. But, I don't consider myself a sugar craver anymore. I used to be! I used to dive headfirst into a bag of cookies, a box of muffins, or anything filled with sugar.
The scale has tipped over that number that, in your mind, you’ve connected to “danger, danger!”. The question is - now what? The trouble is what we’ve been “trained” to do through our dieting culture usually only makes matters worse, not better.
I’ve spent the last 10+ years trying to pull the controlling threads of the dieting culture out of the minds of amazing, beautiful-exactly-as-they-are people. Because, real wellness doesn’t involve fear, control, manipulation, or a restrictive diet.
There’s something you really need to know about me – I detest diets. Like, they make me cringe when I hear about them. No matter how amazing or effective they may seem, they always make me cringe.
The short answer is – NO. There’s a better way to support your immune system <3. “How to boost your immune system” is probably the most popular blog post, article, webinar, and podcast right now…but, you won’t hear it from me because it’s wrong.
I’ve been hearing this everywhere this week, “My sugar cravings are totally out of control!!” So, why is it? Why do we crave sugar when we’re stressed? In a nutshell, the answer is 3-fold.
Don’t let the words “Black Bean” scare you off…this recipe is AMAZING! These are the best brownies I’ve made in a very long time and they even went over like gangbusters at a party recently.
Relaxing and a bit of self care might be the furthest thing from our mind, it can also be one of the most beneficial for our wellbeing and for our immune system. The key is - EASY. Let’s not add anymore stress or strain to our lives today! <3
