March 09, 2022The History Of The Paleo Diet
I've always been kind of curious where modern diets originated from or what the process was that made them rise to prominence when there have just been so many attempts at weight loss trends and fad diets before.

The paleo diet is a recent diet trend that has a surprisingly modern origin, and I will run you through the early records of it through to the modern-day.

Spoiler alert - it didn't carry through as a weight loss diet from several thousand years ago.

March 08, 2022Is Exercise Variety Wrecking Your Workouts?
It's easy to go down the route of choosing exercise variety for the sake of getting variety, but that doesn't always mean an exercise choice is going to be effective.

I'm going to talk you through 2 examples of "varied" exercises that are not only not effective, but probably a bit dangerous as well.

I'll also cover when variety is a good thing, and what to look out for.

Let's look at ecotherapy, some of the benefits, and a few ideas for how to get started with it.

March 06, 2022How To Use Empathy To Not Get Angry
One of my strengths (that's not exactly a long list) is my ability to not stress or get angry when in stressful situations. I can usually maintain a level of calm even when most people would crack.

I suspect a large part of that is because I try to use empathy to see things from another perspective.

It doesn't mean the other person is automatically right or that I am agreeing with them. It just means that I am trying to use empathy to keep my own emotions in check, and to help me feel calm and balanced.

Here are my thoughts on using empathy to overcome anger and get past fears.

March 05, 2022How To Handle Things That Trigger You
As someone who is annoyed by innocuous and innocent things and feels triggered mentally and emotionally by these things on a daily basis, and as ADHD and being neurodivergent means my senses are overloaded easily, it has been important for me to find ways to manage my stress and reactions to certain things, whether they're in my control or not.

Here are a few of my go-to strategies for handling things that trigger me, and the constant droning low-level stress they may cause me.

March 04, 2022Are Meal Replacement Shakes Worth It?
Over the last few years, meal replacement shakes that are moderate to high in calories and offer what they claim to be complete nutrition, have really taken off.

They claim to offer a quicker, more convenient, and cheaper solution to get complete nutrition when you're busy or constantly on the move.

I tried some of the most popular brands with some mixed results.

Here's what I found with Huel, MyVegan Whole Fuel Blend, and PHD Complete.

March 03, 2022Is Milk Chocolate Or Dark Chocolate Better For Your Diet?
Cocoa as a natural product has a lot of health benefits - both mental and physical - and it is one of my most-consumed daily food items.

Dark chocolate, with a higher cocoa content, will have a higher nutritional value than milk chocolate.

But that doesn't always mean t is the right thing for you and your diet. There can be more to consider.

March 02, 2022Dealing With Fitness App Daily Streak Obsession
Fitness apps - and actually a lot of non-fitness apps - use daily streaks or tracking number of consecutive days to help motivate you and encourage you to stay consistent.

And a lot of the time instead of the app continuing to serve the purpose we signed up for, it becomes more about making sure we hit that daily streak one way or another.

Here are a few thoughts on daily streak obsession, how to recognise it, and how to take a moment to pause, reflect, and figure out the best way to move forward from it.

March 01, 2022How Often Should You Change Your Workout Routine?
It's easy to think we should be changing our workout routines every 3, 4, 5, or 6 weeks or they go stale or our body gets used to them and we need to switch things up to "shock" the body again or something like that.

That is usually not true, and sometimes the less you change it the better.

Here's my answer to the question of how often you should change your workout plan, and the most important factors to consider.
