🎄 Christmas at Body & Soul 🎄
We’re all about crafting maximum health, energy, and vitality—especially as we age. And yes, we LOVE Christmas! The message of hope, time with loved ones, cozy films on the sofa, and tables full of delicious festive food.
But you might be wondering: How do I keep a healthy lifestyle at Christmas?

Here are some timely tips:
✅ Enjoy the food—without guilt!
One mince pie won’t ruin your life. Choose real, delicious food over ultra-processed options, then eat with gratitude and joy.
🚶 Move a little every day
Time off work? Perfect for catching up with friends—why not take a stroll while you chat? Pack walking shoes and a warm waterproof coat if you’re away. Even a brisk 10-minute walk in the morning can boost energy and improve sleep.
😴 Rest well
Christmas is a great time to recharge. Stick (more or less) to your usual sleep routine to avoid that groggy morning feeling.
We’ll be enjoying the season guilt-free, knowing our healthy routines will be back in January.

📢 Why Your Body Matters in Your Spiritual Life

Christianity is deeply rooted in the truth that we are not just spiritual beings—we are embodied ones. Our bodies are a sacred gift from God, designed to participate in worship, service, and daily life.But when did you last stop to consider how modern lifestyle pressures might be steering you toward unwise choices—choices that can harm your physical and mental well-being and limit your ability to serve God fully? Too often, we focus on nourishing the soul while neglecting the very vessel that carries it—our body. That’s why we created Body & Soul and why we are putting on our first retreat in March 2026.

At our retreat we will reflect on how to:
✅ Spot lifestyle traps that undermine health
✅ Make smarter, faith-aligned choices
✅ Care for your body as part of Christian stewardship

After all:
“For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” — Ephesians 2:10

💪 Excercise to beat cancer.

Exercise isn’t just about fitness—it could help slow cancer growth! 🧬 Research shows that when you move, your muscles compete with cancer cells for sugar, making it harder for tumours to thrive.

At Body & Soul, we believe in simple, creative ways to stay active—whether it’s a brisk walk, dancing in your kitchen, or taking the stairs. Every move counts toward better health and vitality!

👉 Ready to start your journey? Join our next Body & Soul course in January:

🥛 How does Kefir work?
Just putting a bit more flesh on the bone following our Introduction to Fermented Foods workshop the other day🧑‍🍳✨
The microbes in kefir grains feed on lactose (milk sugar) and convert it into a mix of:

🧪 Lactic acid – gives kefir its tangy taste
💨 Carbon dioxide – may add a little fizz
🍷 Tiny amounts of ethanol
🌿 A range of bioactive nutrients and vitamins that are great for your health

Lactose is found in the watery part of milk, so it’s not directly related to fat content (as we inadvertantly said yesterday). That said, lactose levels can vary slightly throughout the year depending on things like season, breed of cow, and stage of lactation 🐄🌱. These changes are usually small – but in practice, the kefir you make can vary quite a bit.

That variation is more likely down to things like:
🥛 Type of milk
🧈 Fat content
🌡️ Temperature
⏱️ Fermentation time.. and the list goes on! Even your grains can change in composition over time.

But whatever the variation, kefir brings a whole host of health benefits when enjoyed regularly, including:
✅ Improved digestion (especially for those with lactose intolerance)
🦠 Support for a healthy gut microbiota
🔥 May help reduce inflammation
💪 A good source of B vitamins, calcium, and protein

👉 Have you tried making kefir at home? Or do you have a favourite way to enjoy it? Let us know in the comments—we’d love to hear your tips, questions, or kefir stories! 💬👇
