You can have thoughts WITHOUT becoming them. 💡

It's healthy and necessary to be mindful of your feelings and thoughts, as they provide valuable insight into how you are doing. However, the challenge lies in finding the balance and not over-identifying with them. When you become your thoughts and emotions, it can be easy to lose your perspective and allow them to dictate your behaviour.
By viewing your thoughts and feelings as passing visitors, you can begin to acknowledge and understand how they affect you and what they are communicating about your current experience. In doing so, you can create the mental space to make more objective decisions, helping you stay on track and move forward with greater clarity. ✨

Cozy, comforting, and ready in just 30 minutes!🥣

This stew is a powerhouse of nutrition! Red lentils and a base of vegetables provide a satisfying mix of plant-based protein and high fibre. This combination slows digestion, promoting long-lasting fullness and helping you manage hunger.

The flavourful dish is packed with vegetables and features a generous amount of smoked paprika, giving it a rich, deep, and satisfying smoky taste that feels comforting on a chilly day.

A big thank you to Laura Wright for sharing this quick and wholesome recipe! ✨

It is common to fall into the promise of a "New Year, New Me."
Sometimes, one may feel the need to be overly ambitious and/or feel the need to compare themselves to others. This approach can be dangerous as it can lead to burnout and the feelings of failure, causing us to halt our efforts altogether!
However, with the mindset of a “New Year, Sustainable Me”, the journey is about enjoyment and consistency. The goal is to create small, manageable habits and sustained effort. Gradual progress allows us to solidify the habit of simply showing up. Once that foundation is built, we get better and better, creating lasting change.📈

The velvety texture comes from blending roasted acorn squash and apples, providing a great source of fibre (6g per serving) that helps keep you full and satisfied. It's naturally vegan and dairy-free, using coconut milk for creaminess (you can easily swap to light coconut milk for a lower fat option!).
Pro Tip: Since this soup is lighter on protein, serve it alongside a large, protein-rich salad to make it a perfectly balanced meal!
A huge thank you to Sarah from Making Thyme for Health for this delicious recipe!

Towards the end of the year, our schedules can get busy and it’s easy to let sleep be the first thing we neglect. That being said, getting 7–9 hours of sleep every night is important to keep your batteries charged. 😴

This week we challenge you to prioritize rest so that you feel empowered to move towards your health goals and enjoy the last month of 2025. ✨

This week, we recommend intentionally shifting our focus to joy! Our challenge is to capture Grateful Snapshots throughout the week. 📸

We love this idea because it creates a personal album of all your favorite things and moments from the week. What you photograph can be simple (like a warm cup of coffee ☕) or a very special event, it just has to spark some joy!

By the end of the week, you'll have a visual reminder of positivity that helps train your mind toward gratitude. Our graphic designer has compiled several photos to lead by example!

What small joy can you capture this week? ✨
