Low energy levels, lethargy, constantly tired?
It's a common complaint.

Before reaching for another cup of coffee or an energy drink, you might want to look at some of your lifestyle habits.

- Lack of exercise
- Skipping breakfast
- Excess sugar
- Poor sleep quality
- Dehydration
- Excess caffeine
- Stress

Share with your friends who are onto their 4th cup of coffee for the morning.

Which diet are you on?

You've tried them all or been curious in the least.
Perhaps friends or family members have had success on a specific diet, or it's what everyone is doing and you suffer from FOMO.
Perhaps your favourite celebrity swears by it, or a renowned health expert you follow on social media is giving it both thumbs up.

Whatever reason you choose to follow a specific diet, I urge you to at least understand what the diet is based on and who it's targeted at.
Avoid simply jumping on the latest diet trend.

We all have different needs, preferences, tolerances, lifestyles...
It's about understanding what will work best for you.

How long can you realistically and happily follow an unnecessary restrictive diet?

If you're struggling with food noise and what to eat or not to eat, I'd love to help - www.intonutrition.co.za

"I've tried every diet out there"

"I start a diet but I don't have the discipline or willpower to stick with it"

"I don't feel hungry during the day"

"I can't stop eating chocolate at night"

I often hear this from my clients.

But what I'm also hearing:
- Frustration
- Feeling of failure
- Guilt
- Lack of self-appreciation
- Self-judgment

If you can relate, you are not alone.

I help women build a healthier, more joyful relationship with food – and with themselves.

"Journal writing is a wonderful pathway to self awareness.” ― Rand Olson

If like me, you're guilty of internalizing - the worries, the fear, the holding it all together - then the process of getting it all (the good, bad and ugly) on paper, in a journal, can really help.

Putting your thoughts down on paper (actual pen to paper) can be very beneficial in:

- Increasing self-awareness

Awareness and acknowledgement of triggers.
Awareness of habit cycles.

- Emotional release

A safe space to express how you are feeling;
Recognizing your response to the feelings.

- Minimalising overthinking

Breaking the thought loop in your mind.
Making space for clarity.

All the internalizing can be unhelpful and even toxic.

Getting out of your head can be therapeutic, liberating and healing.

In my nutrition and wellness coaching sessions I encourage clients to journal. It's often step number one and it's such a beneficial 'tool' in their wellness journey.

If you're journaling, I'd love to know if you are finding it beneficial.
And if you're not, I hope you'll be inspired to start.

p.s. I couldn't resist this journal cover - 4 leaf clover and ladybirds (I love ladybirds). Finding a journal with an appealing or fun cover can make it more inviting to write in.

We are our own worst critic - especially when it comes to our body.
This 'love note' from Prana Love so beautifully reminds us to love our body unconditionally.

Daily Love Notes - # 48 of 50 - 19 May 2026

Honour your body. Love your body ... even the parts you think should be better. Listen carefully to the messages from your body ... the tightness and aches are asking for your nurturing. Take good care of your body ... but do it with kindness.

We spend so much time in our heads … the planning … the analysing … the worrying. Some of this could be useful and some of it not … and that’s okay.

But we do need to intentionally pay attention to our physical bodies. We do this not only to get relief from our over active thinking minds, but also so we can understand what our bodies need.

Even brief moments, where we are tuning into our bodies … noticing the sensations, tightness, aches and pains … is a gesture of kindness. It’s like saying to our bodies “I care for you … what do you need?”

Make sure you honour your body by giving it the nourishment it needs … the movement it loves … the rest it deserves. There is no need to punish your body.

Even if there are parts of your body that you wish were different… there are so many more parts that are just perfect.

Be in awe of your body. Be grateful for your body.

Honour your body.

Blessings
Michael 💚🙏

Who can relate?

But on a more serious note, a reminder to avoid shopping on a empty stomach. You're likely to make less healthier grocery choices and shop more than you need and over and above what's on your shopping list.

Being ‘out of control’ around food is not a lack of willpower.

Eating your emotions is way more common than you think.

Your food do’s and don’ts likely started when you were young.

Most of us eat mindlessly, on autopilot.

Punishing our body with food leads to guilt.

Depriving our body of food can be harmful.

Having a happy and healthy relationship means looking at all our behaviours around food.

Food is essential for living but it should also bring you joy.
