Crisp Chocolate Slab
You’ll be amazed at how easy it is to actually make your own slab of chocolate. This is a classic recipe and will show you just how easy it is to make delicious natural chocolate without all the additives and preservatives found in commercial chocolate.

Ingredients:
195 g cacao butter
120 g cacao powder
10 tablespoons of maple syrup
1 ½ teaspoons of vanilla powder
½ teaspoon of salt
250 g pistachio nuts
250 g goji berries

To Make:
• Place a glass bowl into a pot of simmering water. Make sure the bowl is not actually touching the water but just sitting above it.
• Melt the butter in the bowl.
• Once melted, add all of the other ingredients except the pistachios and goji berries.
• Stir the ingredients in the bowl until they have combined evenly and you have a smooth chocolate.
• Line a tray (such as a baking tray) with greaseproof paper.
• Roughly chop the pistachios and add half of the nuts and the goji berries to the mixing bowl.
• Pour the mixture into the tray until the chocolate is about 1/2 cm thick deep.
• Sprinkle the remaining nuts and goji berries over your chocolate slab.
• Once it’s cooled down, place the tray into the fridge to set for at least 3 hours.
• Once set, break into chunks and store in an airtight container in the fridge.

Did you know menopause is actually a single point in time!

I know that there’s a lot of confusion about the specific phases of menopause, and we often use the term ‘menopause’ to describe the entire menopause transition, which can span decades.

So, I thought a post providing some definitions of each phase might help provide some clarity.

Please note this may not apply to someone who did not have a naturally occurring menopause.

Perimenopause
The time when hormones begin to fluctuate and predictable menstrual cycles cease. It typically occurs in your 40s but can be earlier, and can last for many years.

The fluctuating hormones create lots of symptoms, including hot flashes, mood changes, night sweats, anxiety and many more. The good news is perimenopause is temporary.

Menopause
Menopause is actually a single day! We hear it used to describe a season, but it actually refers to a single point in time.

The clinical definition of menopause is actually the point in time exactly 1 year following the final menstrual period.

The onset of natural menopause (not caused by surgery, medication or disease) occurs between the ages of 40 and 58. The average age in Australia and the US is 52.

Post-Menopause
Post-menopause is the time after the menopause. If we had our last menstrual period 13 months ago, we are post-menopausal. Menopause symptoms can continue for many years during the post-menopause phase, but they are less erratic than during peri-menopause and eventually plateau. Many women will spend 40% of their lives post menopause.

LEARN TO SAY NO

Taking on more than you can handle is a sure-fire way to raise your stress levels. Having firm boundaries and saying no to things can keep it in check.

Be the BEST version of you

Your digestion begins the minute you take your first bite. We often think of digestion in terms of what happens behind the scenes long after we swallow, but a crucial part of the equation begins right away.⁣

To help make digestion easier on your body, be sure to chew your food well before swallowing. This releases your body from doing the work for you, allowing it to absorb more nutrients and making the process more efficient and effective.

A good rule of thumb is to chew each bite 20 times. This may seem like a lot at first, especially if you're generally a quick eater. Give yourself a week of being incredibly mindful of this, and you'll be well on your way to building a new habit of chewing well.
