    How To Start Eating Real Food (and make it practical for busy moms!)

    Learning how to start eating real food can be a daunting task. There's a lot of information and systems out there to rely on but it can be overwhelming. And as a busy mom, you might be curious as to how eating less processed food is going to fit into your grocery budget! Learn not only how to make the transition to a whole food diet but also how to make it PRACTICAL as a big family with small kids. Don't want to read? Join mama of four Heather Englund and me in the audio version above as we share our tips and tools for learning how to start eating more whole foods and less processed foods... and making it PRACTICAL for a busy household. What Is A Real Food Diet? Though the term "real food"' means something a little bit different to everyone, a general consensus is that a this diet refers to eating whole, unprocessed food as much as possible. The easiest way to think about it is to ask if it came from nature. Did it grow from the ground or have a mother? Is it something you could find if you went out into the world? Some examples are: * Meat * Vegetables * Fruits * Nuts * Grains * Seeds Foods that are as unprocessed as possible Benefits Of Real Food For Kids (and moms!) To help our babes grow, we want to give them the best building blocks we can. And that means whole, unprocessed foods. Some benefits of eating better foods are: * Optimal growth (giving the body what it needs) * Better brain development * Improves focus * Hunger regulation * Stabilized energy levels * Quality sleep * Well rounded palate Though the benefits of learning to eat real food are immense, it can definitely be a struggle teaching kids to appreciate them. Hack: the younger you start them the better! How To Start Eating Real Food Making the switch to a healthy is daunting. But there are some tricks you can use. Most importantly though is to not try to do everything all at once. Give yourself (or your kids) time to adjust to the changes. Start Slow Especially when it comes to kids, you can't just do a full overhaul. Starting by adding MORE options on the table instead of just taking things away. Be Open Minded Have an open mind about trying new foods and new ways of cooking. If you jump into the mindset that you dislike something before you've tried it, you're not likely to enjoy it. Learn To Cook You'll need to learn to cook if you expect to not eat processed foods . Challenge yourself to try one new recipe each week to branch out of your usual way of cooking. Experiment with spices, seasonings, and different vegetables you normally wouldn't grab. You need to step outside your comfort zone if you expect to make ...

    Self Care 101: Bubble Baths Are NOT The Answer

    The wellness trend is a hot one this year but unfortunately, many people have the vibe wrong.

    5-Minute Fixes For Everyday Health

    Use these quick, practical actions to improve your everyday health. These healthy tips tackle all five major areas of health and help keep being a fit and healthy mom practical during busy days. It’s overwhelming trying to do it all and follow the rules. As moms, our time is limited, and we feel overwhelmed as to where to place it. So, screw the rules and instead find a better system for everyday health. Learn the best way to improve your health and wellness in under five minutes. These quick fixes (courtesy of Amanda Quin From the Fit Chicks Chat Podcast) tackle all four major areas of health and require nothing more than five minutes each. It’s a busy mom win. JUMP to the resources mentioned in this podcast. Have you ever felt overwhelmed as a mom? HA, Which moment of the day right? But have you ever felt overwhelmed about all the actions you need to take to be healthy? Fitness, healthy meals prep, self-care, mindfulness… the list goes on, but our time doesn’t increase. It’s overwhelming and impractical to try and do it all. Everyday Health Versus Time At the end of the day, it comes down to time. We only have so much of it as moms and something always falls behind, often a healthy habit. We simply can’t do it all (which is a lesson we need to remember and accept!). I will never be the person to preach hour-long gym sessions multiple per week- because I can’t do that. Nor do I believe in spending Sundays in meal-prep mode for three hours. However, it is our minds making us believe that we need more time for everyday health. So, let’s fix that. Below is how to rock everyday health habits in just five minutes ????   The Five Everyday Health Areas When it comes to healthy living, there are four main areas: * Workouts * Healthy food and prep * Meditation and stress * Affirmation By acknowledging all four areas you’re already better off. Health and wellness is a balance, there’s no one perfect system and often we overlook some of the biggest pillars for health because we’re short on time. To improve our everyday health though, we need to make an effort to hit all of those pillars in some way. Everyday Health: Fitness & Working Out Perhaps the biggest stress of moms everywhere: workouts. We repeatedly beat ourselves up for missing workouts, the gym, or simply not doing enough. But here’s the thing: there is no rulebook that says that workouts need to be sixty minutes, or it doesn’t count. Instead, we need to shift our mindset to frequent movement and not just structured workouts. Workouts don’t need to be a specific length or even include specific things. I adore resistance training but it’s not for everyone. Five Minute Fix: do five-minute workouts. Yes, seriously! Instead of focusing on duration,
