THIS 🥰 .
.
SUCH a treat to get messages like this from clients - it's so kind when they take the time to feedback ❤️. We don't share them often but from time to time we think we're probably doing a disservice by not doing 😬 - because they speak for themselves. PLEASE hear this - this ISN'T a 'look how good we are' post because it's actually not just on us that this process works - it's a team effort. .
.
It's actually about the fact that if you can, engaging in this process of working through nutrition stuff (and often all the things connected because nutrition isn't an isolated thing we can just micromanage) can be life changing. And that's not just down to us - it's about working TOGETHER and listening to your wants/needs/struggles and finding a new way through 👊. So if you've sat on the fence about enquiring about or engaging with 1-1 nutrition work...can this be your nudge?! 😉 Maybe you can have it as a Christmas gift or gift it to someone you know would benefit from it? 🎄 You and those around you are worth investing in 🥰
.
.
Whether it's a health issue, a struggle with your relationship with food, or trying to figure out what works for YOUR body (nutrition is never one size fits all), we'd ❤️ to help. Feel free to message us, email wethrivelife@outlook.com or go to our website for all the contact info if you want to know a bit more 👍

Gotta admit - he's pretty cute! 😂
.
.
We've had the first festive weekend of the season, helping at Santa's 🎅 grotto this weekend (a friend of ours did a cracking job of setting that one up), mince pies and Christmas jumpers with friends😋 and eventually getting round to putting up the tree 🎄and our Christmas lights 🌟 (well done Andy 👏).
.
.
We know this time of year isn't easy for everyone and can be a tonne of pressure for some too. This year, we're making some really simple little traditions of our own...things like new movies, favourite meals/foods, exploring places to walk and choosing some new songs...things that bring it back to the simple stuff 🎄. It's easy to over complicate, over do, over commit, over exhaust at this time of year. If you're finding yourself feeling a bit panicky and overwhelmed (like we can do!), maybe doing the simple things will be enough after all 🥰. .
.
Hope your weekend has been what you've needed friends 👊

MINDFUL EATING🧠. .
.
Had a good old chat on our stories yesterday about the concept 'mindful eating' - the idea of being aware of and present with our food🍝. It's kind of a trendy topic at the moment - we reckon largely due to the fact that we live at such a fast pace 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️these days so one of the last things we can be is mindful about food! .
.
.
Being present with the food in front of us is associated with improved awareness of appetite signalling😋 (awareness of how hungry or full we are), enjoyment and awareness of our nutritional wants and needs. It might sound a bit 'woo woo' and out there but actually it's kind of vital for being in tune with what our bodies needs and tackling some of those trickier behaviours around food. .
.
.
A simple thing you can do before your next meal is just to sloooow down 😉. Removing other distractions (TV/phones etc), try some deep breaths before you eat - it can improve your digestion and also slow you down enough to be aware of when you feel full, if you need some more🍴 and where the enjoyment factor of food ends. Experiment! You might discover something that helps you get more in tune with your body 👊 Oh and if you want some more thoughts and things to try, have a look on our Instagram feed and find the 'mindful eating' highlight we've saved 👍.

"Not sure I could've been much more grateful for blue sky and fresh air today! A mix of being #glutened at the weekend and then getting the latest bout of the norovirus - which Andy consequently caught - not my idea of fun. Bugs be GONE thank you very much! 🤢 Seems it's spreading like wildfire round here, hadn't realised quite how many people had been struck 😞. Thankfully we're on the mend 👍" Saz

SICK DAY 🤢 .
.
Got glutened and spent last night and today on the sofa feeling sick as a dog 😞 Managed some egg 🥚and a bit of loaf. Some days #coeliacdisease sucks. Not everyday, sometimes it's managed and just in the background. But stuff like an accidental mouthful of something not #glutenfree really does one on you and it's rough. It doesn't just feel better in a day or two either - the fatigue can take time to go and the aches or flare up symptoms don't just disappear overnight. Thought I'd share this on the incase you know someone with it/with an autoimmune disease because flare ups require some extra patience and grace. You can't always see it from the outside either which makes it tricky - although anyone seeing me today would know! 🤢🤢🤢Here's to feeling better tomorrow hey 🤞
