It has been a minute or two since I have been here. My absence from this space over the last couple of years was largely to do with supporting family members through their health journey.
My weight has ballooned (Thankyou menopause and years of hormone manipulation) and honestly the imposter syndrome for me kicked in.
What I have come to truly know is that our bodies are truly amazing. Intricate and yet also simple. Fostering good health is about what we feed it, not only physically but emotionally and spiritually.
Keeping in good health is accumulative and our choices of what we put in and on our bodies matter and impact the status of our health either positively or negatively at some point.

Perfection is not the goal, but small stackable habits can make a huge difference in supporting our bodies ability to regenerate.

As I continue to work on my own health join me here as I share health fostering tips.

Gravy with roast chicken is the best.
Making it from the juices from the pan is even better.
