When life gives you lemons, make lemonade.

Thanks to lock downs and staying homes since 2020, it’s been trendy to cook home-made meals in China. People started sharing photos of home-made foods on social media apps, which helped push more and more people spend time and effort learning to cook at home. Some Chinese even have been making really visually appealing meals for home dinners, just to show their mental toughness and positive spirits! What a real-life demonstration of turning difficulty into opportunity!

Well, since it is still at the beginning of the Chinese lunar new year, we are learning basic stir-fry, from which you can adapt and make or develop your own stir-fry variations! Let’s have a listen together!

Your host Charlie Wang, based in Toronto Canada, is the founder of this podcast show. His father is a stroke survivor.

He started this podcast, because he wanted to help people with the knowledge of healthy food to avoid what had happened to his father and his friend. He hopes you will all be healthy, and have healthy relationships and better lives because you and your family are all physically healthy, and eating better.

Your mind is emotionally immature. Your mind is crazy. Yes, we all have emotional weakness. But, what if you could leverage your own emotional weakness and make the best of it?

Yes, that means make your own emotional weakness to your advantages. And this way, you don’t need to spend your willpower, instead, you could go with the flow and let your emotional weakness lead you to something good, healthy, and positive. What a wonderful technique if you know how to use it!

So next time you see or make a list of weaknesses, or someone shows you some weaknesses examples, don’t panic! You can turn them into your advantages! Let’s have a listen together!

In this fast-changing society, it’s common to hear people say that, “I’m so busy, I wish I had the time.” Great! Let’s make it to your own healthy versions, for example, I’m so busy cooking black bean soup!

For those who have pets, I bet you treat your pets nicely. You feed them healthy pet foods, and take them to pet grooming shops. Now think about this, while you pay so much attention to your pets health, you should treat your own health as carefully as well. That means, spend time on your own healthy cooking at home, thus you could say to your friends next time, while she tells you that she is so busy, that you’re also busy at home, cooking black bean soup. Okay you know what we are learning to make today already, let’s have a listen together!

Already don’t feel like wanting to learn more healthy eating habits or healthy recipes? Learning fatigue? Think again. We all need support from family, and friends. So what?

That means, if you can think from your family or friends perspective now, you would agree that they all need support from you, as well. So if you keep yourself healthy and vibrant, you are ready to offer them support at any time. And I’m sure you don’t want to see that while they need your help, you are physically not ready, or actually in need of support yourself.

And the recipe we are learning today is so so so easy and simple chia seeds yogurt pudding. Let’s listen together!

7 Chia Seed Benefits, According to a Nutritionist

https://www.health.com/food/chia-seed-benefits

If you don’t know, you should eat more vegetables to keep healthy, then you’ll have problems. But, if you know that you should eat but still don’t eat more vegetables, then you’ll still have problems. So now what?

We normally brush teeth and wash face every morning and night. And it feels normal. However what if you just wash face without brushing teeth first, do you feel a little bit awkward? I know I will, and won’t wash face that way. It’s the same as eating vegetables, without having…

Charlie’s childhood memories

(No internet link, only sweet memories)

Have you ever been frustrated in January that you gained so much weight, because you’d eaten too much during the holiday season? If yes, you got to listen to today’s episode.

Earlier this month I attended an online workshop by a registered Dietitian & Diabetes Educator who works at a Toronto local community clinic. She talked about mindful eating during the holiday season. And there are 6 strategies to make mindful eating choices. I found it very insightful and helpful, and I want to share them with you today. If you are interested in knowing more about their ongoing workshops later on, check the link below for more detailed information. Okay, let’s have a listen together!
