The news. The endless scrolling. The 'need' to have more, be more, do more... Our lives seem so stressful at the moment and to be honest, it's pretty exhausting.

In my journey to calm my nervous system, I really like the ideas of gadgets and supplements to help me feel more calm and in some cases I have found getting more 'stuff' can help. Magnesium and B vits were a biggy for me and meditation/ yoga apps also helped too BUT...

What I find to HANDS DOWN positively impacts my stress levels, mood, nervous system and brain health the most...

🌿🌳 Getting into nature 🌳🌿

It's like my whole body takes a huge exhale

My shoulders relax

My brain slows down

And things just become simpler

The things that grab my attention are shapes and shadows rather than depressing headlines and pointless reels.

You're forced to listen to birdsongs and the rustle of leaves over 'baby shark' and radio ads 🫠

Life is simpler and the body recognises that as feeling safe. Hence why it's so much easier to move into our rest and digest state. My little boy is sooo much calmer when he's in nature too.

Whether it's splashing your feet in water, hunting down the final blackberries this season or just walking under trees, I'm pretty sure your nervous system will thank you for it.

What's your favourite thing to do in nature to de-stress?

Could sugar in a babies diet impact their dementia risk in later life?! 😰

A new study thinks maybe there could be an association with those who have less sugar in the first 2 years of life having a lower risk of dementia many decades later.

At any age though, we probably know (even if it's just a gut feeling 😄) that many of the ultra processed snacks we eat probably aren't the best kind of fuel for long term brain health- especially foods that really spike our blood sugar levels. This is because our brain is really sensitive to glucose shifts and it CAN impact inflammation and cause oxidative stress (i.e things that are not cool for the brain).

Sooo shifting to more nutrient dense, protein and fibre containing snacks can be an awesome alternative. Like these delights!

To make around 10 scones:

Ingredients-

250g Self-raising flour
1 tsp Baking powder
50g Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
Tsp salt
100g cheddar cheese (grated)
75g Green peas (cooked and cooled)
120ml Whole milk
1 Egg (beaten, for brushing)

Mix flour, baking powder, and salt.Rub cold butter into the flour until it looks like crumbs.Stir in grated cheddar cheese and green peas.Add milk slowly to form a soft dough.

Press out into an inch thick dough and cut into circles ( I just used a glass!). Brush with whisked egg or milk and bake at 200 degrees for 12 mins until golden.

Enjoy! 🥰

Sometimes all it takes is an old school banger, a deep breath and a change of scenery for a mental reset ☺️

Supporting overwhelm and burnout doesn't need to be too complicated... Maybe a bit of kisstory needs to be added to my burnout protocol?? 😆

Are festivals the new wellbeing retreat? 😋😆

I'd say a dose of dancing serotonin, dopamine cuddles and some soul food all did the trick for a pretty perfect weekend!

If I chucked in some extra pre/ probiotics next time I reckon we've got ourselves a pretty all round happy gut, happy mind experience.

Your healthiest life can still be fun 🤩

A few months after having my little boy, I realised I wasn't coping with stress and overwhelm in the way I normally would.

I felt irritable, overwhelmed and, if I'm honest, quite angry at times. The thing was, I couldn't really pinpoint where that anger was coming from 🤯

As I reflected on it, I realised that many of the things that had previously been my bread and butter for supporting my mental wellbeing had slipped. My nervous system felt dysregulated, I wasn't paying as much attention to my gut health, and I wasn't prioritising the habits that usually helped me feel grounded and resilient.

So I slowly started to come back to the basics.

🥑 Nourishing my body with food that supported my gut health.

🥑 Paying attention to my nervous system.

🥑 Supporting my vagus nerve.

🥑 Creating small daily habits that helped me feel more regulated.

It wasn't an overnight fix, but it felt like a reset 🥰

I felt calmer, more patient, more energised and more like myself again. Better able to show up as a mum, a wife and a business owner.

This is exactly why I'm so passionate about sharing the gut-brain connection and practical ways to support mental wellbeing.

Over the coming weeks and months, I'll be sharing simple, evidence-based tools around nutrition, stress, the nervous system and mindset that can help you feel more in control when life feels overwhelming.

I'd love to know:

Had you heard of the gut-brain connection before?

And what do you currently do to support your own wellbeing? 👇

For years, we've been taught to think about mental wellbeing as something that happens only in the brain.

So when I noticed that I mentally felt so much better when I ate 'better' I knew that there HAD to be something else influencing how I felt 🧐

*Gut bacteria enters the chat*

So now this is an area I've become increasingly passionate and speak about because once you understand the gut-brain connection, you start to realise there are practical things you can do to support your wellbeing.

Over the next few weeks I'll be sharing simple, evidence-based insights around nutrition, gut health, stress and the vagus nerve, helping you understand how your body and mind work together.

I'd love to know though, had you heard of the gut-brain connection before?

I went to prison... 🫣🫣

And I came out with story after story of individuals looking to better themselves with the limited resources they have.

🥑 Better their mental wellbeing through simple additions of fibre.

🥑 Switch their mindset to focus on what they want and exploring the steps to get there.

🥑 Being resourceful to better their diet, even if they don't have the kitchen, the equipment and the money to have a 'perfect diet'

I was so inspired by them that I reminded myself to practice what I preach and I came home and re-wrote out some of the things that I want in my life. I have the privilege

So this is also my reminder for you... What teeny tiny step are you going to make to better yourself today??

Are you a serial rusher like me? 😅

I have noticed recently that everything I seem to be doing has to be done with urgency.

A quick shower.
A quick snack.
A quick workout.

Fast became the norm and the stress that naturally comes with rushing became the default.

In a fast world which often rewards 'busy'ness it's often soooo hard to slow down and to even just do... Nothing...

A recent urine test I did showed that my adrenals were struggling and that was impacting hormone production. Functional test results that my 'gut instinct' already knew. So what am I going to do about it??

For me it's about focussing on stimulating my vagus nerve and getting out of that fight or flight response into my rest and digest. I'm currently doing this by:

🥑 Morning kundalini yoga which involves breath work, chanting (awesome for the vagus nerves) and meditation
🥑 Slowing down on tasks that don't need to be rushed- super slow water filter at the gym now = time to just be
🥑 Tryyyying to use down time for doing nothing (rather then default screen time- but this is soooo hard!)

I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one though. Any fellow 'rushers' with me?? 🙋🏼 Are you going to join me to aim to go slow?

The Sun is out...iv just boshed an incredible Indian breakfast with double chai 😍 and I wanted to share with you a new method I have been working on recently in my talks 🥑

So, I am a speaker that will inspire you to focus on optimising your B.N.M to create the happy life that you crave 🤩

B= Bacteria. The trillions of bacteria within our gut that are desperate to support our mood, energy and resilience. They need us to nourish them though and take care of them so they can take care of us

N= Nerves. Specifically our vague nerve. That place where we can turn our right or flight into our rest and digest response and feel calm even in the midst of chaos.

M= Mindset. Working with our unconscious mind so that we naturally look for the good our lives, back ourselves rather than belittle ourselves and create new habits with ease.

I cover all of these elements in my talks. Whether that's on stage, in corporate settings and hopefully now a little more on here! 🥑🥑🥰
