WE CAN DO HARD THINGS.* Is having three kids unde

WE CAN DO HARD THINGS.*

Is having three kids under 3 hard? Does it feel overwhelming or like I am drowning in kids? Do I feel like I spend my days as a human climbing frame? Do I struggle with the guilt that comes with trying to spend time with them all?
Yes.
I realised even just this week that I am still constantly learning about what is feasible for us/me to do know at this stage of life. I often try to do too much and get overwhelmed.
Thanks to this phrase coined by @glennondoyle though - I know I can do hard things.
But what I've realised is its not the actual tasks involved that make parenting hard. Changing nappies and mopping up puke is NOT hard - it's actually pretty easy. It's my thoughts about those tasks that make it hard.
The critical, guilt-ridden, overwhelming 'not enough' thoughts make it feel harder.
And it exactly the same with my clients.
Eating more food, getting better sleep, drinking more water or whatever action they need to take is often in itself NOT hard. Ditching bread for example* is NOT hard - it's actually incredibly simple. You just stop buying bread 🍞❌.
What makes it hard is all the thoughts and drama you create about it in your own head.
THAT is why I work closely with my client for over 3 months so that yes we can work on all the geeky 🤓 nutrition stuff, and run labs 🧫🔬👩‍🔬but also so we can ditch the DRAMA that we create around food and our bodies.
Cos when you ditch this drama, meaning when you switch your thoughts about food and about your body you feel better so much faster.
❤️
So yes we can do hard things....but sometimes we make things WAAAAYYY harder than they need to be.
What if sorting out your belly, energy, and hormones could feel easy, simple, and like there was zero drama? Change was involved but it felt empowering and simple?

LESSONS FROM MY GARDEN: 1. It is very easy to p

LESSONS FROM MY GARDEN:
1. It is very easy to plant too much kale. 🥬
2. We all need sunlight, water, food and time outside to bloom and grow. ☀️ 💦 🥘 ⏰
3. That my mindset is key.
(For years I told myself I am terrible at keeping plants alive. I decided to change that narrative and speak differently. I now say I am learning how to grow vegetables, that I am better than before. I focus on my PROGRESS not my perfection.)
🧠
4. It feels really good to be proud of myself. ☺️
5. It feels really good to achieve something that I once thought 'impossible'.
(As pathetic as it sounds -growing veg just felt way too overwhelming and I felt far 'too busy' to ever try or bother before. Now with 3 tiny kids, a business and having just delivered twins I am as busy as I decide to be. And this is something I see with my clients all the time - spending too much time thinking about how hard it will be to 'give up sugar or bread' for example instead of actually doing it! Then once they have started they ALWAYS tell me it's easier than they think. Always.)

So thank you garden...and please pop round if you need purple kale or chard...I have tons.
❤️❤️

I GAINED 30 POUNDS. And guess what - it doesn’t

HE IS MY SECRET WEAPON.
Lots of people have said to me recently that I am ‘rocking it’ (whatever that means?) as a mum of twins and a toddler.
Well this man is mainly why.
The one who:
Does endless amount of laundry daily.
Is the expert dishwasher.
Will always find time to bundle and throw 🧙‍♂️ around.
Is exceptional at his work
Is incredibly clever.
Is helping me dismantle the ‘TP’ (the patriarchy ) within our relationship and life
Has been with me every night time session with all our babes
Who listens and remembers
Will do ‘diaries’ with me even though he hates it
And so much more.
Thanks man-of-dreams and for being a great day.

FOUR MONTHS POST PARTUM 👯‍♀️ Can you bel

FOUR MONTHS POST PARTUM 👯‍♀️
Can you believe it? These girlies are nearly 4 months old!
I still often can’t believe this body of mine made TWO totally different, totally unique humans at once. 🤯😳
Human bodies are simply amazing.
They are complex, beautiful, mysterious and worthy of our deepest respect.
❤️
And as I was sharing with various clients this week - our bodies deserve our RESPECT and our GRATITUDE.
And when you respect you body - guess what? You eat better.
When you are grateful toward you body- guess what? You treat the MF temple it is!
Boom.
....also this is how I exercise now- with two tinies at my feet or I use them as human weights!!

‘WHAT SHOULD I BE EATING??’ Ever wondered this

‘WHAT SHOULD I BE EATING??’
Ever wondered this? Ever felt a tad confused about what to actually eat ?
Paleo, keto, vegan, plant based, gluten free …but 🤯🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

This has become one loaded and over complicated question.
So keep it simple.
Don’t get bogged down in dieting dogma and labels.
Do what I tell all my clients to do and eat MORE of the following:

🫑Non starchy vegetables & low fructose fruits- all the plants that grow above ground (in general) and citrus fruits and berries. (If you have severe digestive issues you may need to cook all your fruit and veg. You may also have problems with the oxalates, histamine or fibres in these food.)
🧈 Healthy Un-processed fats - think seeds, nuts, egg yolk, high quality grass fed organic meat, oily fish, avocado, butter
🐠 Whole-food protein - fish, meat, egg, lentils, pulses, tempeh.

Are other foods ‘bad’?
NO - they are yummy. 🍠🍔🧀
But its clear that we all need to eat more of the above if we want to feel good.
SO think veggies packed smoothies, omelettes, stir fries, curries, scrambled eggs.
While I can get super technical and personalised with my client programs - the first step is to focus not on what to eliminate - but what to eat MORE off.
Deal?
👊
And side note - I find that most of the people I work with (*cough* and myself) have no bother eating more healthy fats (hello butter!) but struggle to eat enough protein and vegetables - are you the same?

TAKING A MINDFUL MOMENT 🧘‍♀️ This week I

TAKING A MINDFUL MOMENT 🧘‍♀️
This week I have chatted to several clients who have told me they find it near impossible to meditate.
They have tried to do it and it was impossible. 🤯
Their monkey mind just keep swirling and it is hard to shut it down.😶
Plus who has time to meditate? Who has time to take some mindful breaths?
??
But the more resistance you feel to taking 5-10 mins of meditation the more you need it.
Its something I ask all my client to practice in some form as the research is SO clear in terms of all the benefits.
I forced (yes FORCED) myself to start doing it years ago and it was PAINFUL for me to sit and try to focus on being present.
PAINFUL.
It was and is hard - but my brain is so much happier when I take the time to simply be, breathe and do nothing…and also everything.
If you want to improve you mood, sleep, anxiety, weight, hormones, digestion, skin etc - meditate.
There are so many different ways to do it - weird and wonderful, simple and no nonsense, faith based - just pick your flavour and calm your brain.
Calm happy brain = happy digestion, hormones, sleep, skin, immune system and so much more.
-
And let me know below if you find it as difficult as my clients do!!! Cos we can do hard things 😘

I TALKED ABOUT THIS ON THE PODCAST THIS WEEK.
⭐️
One of the fastest ways I am cultivating a healthier body image right now (because HELLO new postpartum body) is with gratitude.
💪
Gratitude doesn’t deny how you feel about your fat/scars/cellulite/bloating/whatever BUT it does shift your focus and raise your energy.
Think about what IS working in your body.
❤️Your heart beats - but you don’t ask it to.
👐You skin repairs and covers you - without any effort from you.
🧠 Your eyes and brain translate light into images and symbols.
🦶 Your feet give you your balance.
…I could go on.
👊
So don’t make yourself wrong if you struggle to like your body - instead try channelling just 10% of the energy you use criticising yourself into thanking your body.
Are you up for that?
If so give me a YES in comments below 👊
❤️❤️❤️

HOW ARE YOU NOURISHING YOURSELF - OUTSIDE OF FOOD?

HOW ARE YOU NOURISHING YOURSELF - OUTSIDE OF FOOD?
🧐
It is REALLY easy to get a wee bit too obsessed about the food you are eating (yes a holistic nutritionist did just say that).
And sure I wholeheartedly believe in the healing power of food (its something you can ‘dose’ yourself with 3-4 times a day with zero side effects!) and it something I talk to my clients about all the time.
Food is powerful…AND its not everything.
I can’t tell you how many wonderful people I’ve worked with in my private practice who come to me and eat really really well yet still feel terrible and aren’t improving.
Why?
They are solely focused on food and they are not nourishing themselves in other ways. This leads to them, yes having a healthy diet, but still having raised stress hormones, hectic lifestyles, an unhealthy mindset, toxic environments, poor skin care & cleaning routines and un healthy boundaries.
😳🤯😳
So make sure you nourishing yourself FULLY.
I break it down this way:
🌈
HOW TO FEEL GOOD
40% foods that are suited to your biology
30% quality sleep
30% stress management
🌈
Every program I create for my clients covers these 3 areas.
And for me right now, non-food nourishment looks like:
-Wild swims. (This is my selfie from last weeks solo swim - I was pretty cold hence the weird expression!)
-Embodiment movement practice (think flailing around, feeling feelings with all the curtains closed!)
-Grounding (I put my feet on the grass and have a grounding sheet on my bed)
-Walking outside.
-Yoga Nidra
-Good quality REM and DEEP sleep (I use an Oura right to track.)
-Good Music.
-Watching Brooklyn Nine Nine on Netflix.
But what about you? What one thing could you do this week to nourish yourself???
👇👇👇

Well HEY THERE - I am BACK ❤️👏😍 But it's

Well HEY THERE - I am BACK ❤️👏😍
But it's been a hot minute hasn't it?
5 months
1 birth
(10000’s milligrams of drugs)
2 baby girls
1 tantruming and cute toddler
100+ cups of coffee
50kg of Lindt 90% dark chocolate
20+ litres of pumped breast milk 🍈 🍈
100s stretch marks
10000 muslin cloths washed
5 humans in the Hall family.
👫👯‍♀️🕺
People - I've missed you but I am back from the 4th trimester!
I needed to get off social as I was worried about the changes in the privacy settings (still am), and the ongoing censorship on these platforms PLUS I was definitely doing too much mindless scrolling and choosing to 'Instagram instead of feeling my feelings.
(Plus I was about to pop out 2 baby girls so I figured I might not have tons of time for talking to myself via stories...😂)
So some lessons needed to be learned off the gram and life has been lived.
Well I say life has been lived but really postpartum is a very intense but dull time in my opinion!
But aren't these girls beauts? I am in love with them.
❤️❤️❤️
Scroll right to meet Luna 🌙 Aurelia Ann Hall and Rainbow 🌈 Sophia Ruth Hall. They are now 3 months old and loving life. They are also being very kind to me in that they sleep well and are happy, settled ladies.
Life with twins and a toddler has been full but also awesome and TBH - much better than I expected (although I have a tendency t always plan for the worst!). 🌈🌙
Both myself and joe-of-dreams (AKA husband) have been off on parental leave together so that has been a massive blessing.
⭐️
Thanks for being here and I will be sharing more healthy geeky awesomeness soon ;)

HELLO LOVELIES! Update from me: - I am doing well
