Today’s Vex King quote re ‘trusting yourself’.

21/11/2025

Insightful read if you want to know what to focus on to retain muscle as you age.

You’ll find muscle-building “rules” all over the Internet.

But most of them miss the point.

This visual says it all.

🧬 Genetics: Huge influence… and totally outside your control.
🏋️ Resistance training: Your biggest lever (and where most of your results come from).
🥗 Diet: Especially protein and total calories.
😴 Sleep: Quietly does half the work for you.
💊 Supplements: Helpful, but a tiny slice of the pie.

If you want more muscle, strength, and power?

Focus on the big rocks. Ignore the noise.

THU 20/11/25 TIP OF THE WEEK: SLOW COOKER

🍲It’s slow cooker week and I have two tips for you!

First, make sure you spray your slow cooker liner with non-stick cooking spray (coconut or olive oil) before you use it. This will help big-time with cleanup.

Second, never store your food in the ceramic slow cooker liner. Instead, place your food in another storage container.

That’s because the ceramic is designed to hold heat, which means it cools down very slowly and that’s not good for food safety. 👍

🙌 Win:win for self-love🫶🏻

Love a study that proves what we always knew...

"Compared to other approaches, self-pleasure was rated among the most effective strategies for symptom relief on a 5-point scale, scoring 4.35 versus 3.89-4.06 for various lifestyle changes.

When asked about how ma********on affects specific menopause symptoms, 46% of perimenopausal survey participants reported an improvement of at least one menopause symptom, including improved mood (43%), enhanced feelings of sexual desire and pleasure (13%), improved sleep (13%), improved vaginal lubrication (11%), pain relief (8%), reduction in hot flashes (3%), and other positive impacts (10%). "

Thank you

WED 9/11/25 WEEKLY RECIPE: 🥣4-INGREDIENT SLOW COOKER OATS 🥣
(makes 4 servings)

👏If you’re used to eating quick oats, this will convert you forever to ‘real’ steel-cut oats, which are hearty, nutty and delicious!

Look for organic, gluten-free steel-cut oats if possible.

You’ll wake up looking forward to breakfast!

Tip: Use unsweetened canned coconut milk. Be sure to shake up the can so that when you open it, the fatty cream that rises to the top has fully incorporated with the liquid beneath it.

If it hasn’t, stir it well so that you end up with a smooth, creamy liquid.

Ingredients:
1 cup (160 g) steel-cut oats
1 cup (120 g) dried cranberries
1 cup dried figs (160 g), chopped
4 cups (1 L) water
½ cup (125 ml) unsweetened coconut milk (from can, not carton)

Method:
Combine all ingredients in a slow cooker. Cover and cook on low heat for 8 to 9 hours.

In the morning, give it a good stir before spooning into 4 bowls. This also will keep in the refrigerator for a few days.

MON 17/11/25 WEEKLY WELLNESS CHALLENGE: 🥘 SLOW COOKER 🥘

Slow cookers may have been one of the best inventions in the world! Don’t you agree?!

I mean, it doesn’t really get any easier...

Just toss in your ingredients, set it to your desired temp, come back a few hours later, and voila!

You have an amazing dinner … and probably lots of leftovers, too.

I personally LOVE one-pot meals because the cleanup couldn’t be easier. If you’ve got a busy schedule, a slow cooker can be a lifesaver!

🥘🧑‍🍳 That’s why this week, your challenge is to try a brand-new slow cooker recipe!

It’s always nice to have a warm, home-cooked meal ready and waiting for you at dinnertime.

If you’re looking for some recipe inspiration, here’s a great site to check out: www.eatingwell.com/recipes/17987/cooking-methods-styles/slow-cooker-crockpot

I guarantee you’ll find a great recipe in there (or three)!
