STUFFED PROTEIN BALLS🤎

Rich, chocolatey, and naturally sweet.
These no bake protein balls are made with dates, cashews, cocoa, seeds, and flax, soft, fudgy, and finished with a creamy peanut butter centre. The perfect grab and go snack when you want something nourishing and satisfying.

Ingredients:
Soft dates, roasted cashews, raw cocoa powder, toasted sesame seeds, ground flaxseeds, and peanut butter.

How to:
Add the dates, cashews, cocoa, sesame seeds, and flaxseeds to a food processor and blend until the mixture holds together when pressed.
Roll into balls, create a small crater in the centre, and fill with peanut butter. Seal, roll smooth, and coat in cocoa or sesame seeds if you like.

Storage:
Keep in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 4 days, or freeze for up to 2 months.

Try this quick breath tool to re-centre yourself 😌

One of my favourite nervous system tools is called Humming Bee.

It’s simple, grounding and very effective if you’re feeling anxious, overstimulated or unable to switch off.

How to do it:

➡️ Sit comfortably and close your eyes
➡️ Use your thumbs to gently press the small flaps in front of your ear canals to close them
➡️ Let your fingers spread up and over the top of your head
➡️ Take a slow breath in
➡️ As you breathe out, hum softly
➡️ Then pause and notice the vibration and quiet inside your head

Keep your attention on the sensation rather than your thoughts.

I use this a lot in the evening — especially if I’ve worked late or feel a bit wired.
It helps me settle, re-centre and come back into my body.

Simple, but powerful.

Save this for later and let me know if you try it 🤍

TOFU CREAM CHEESE ✨

Simple, savoury, and quietly luxurious.

A creamy, plant-based spread that comes together in minutes and works almost everywhere — on toast, bagels, crackers, sandwiches, or swirled through bowls and roasted veg.

You’ll need:
200g firm tofu
20g cashews, soaked in boiling water for 15 minutes
2 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
2 garlic cloves (or roasted – see tip)
1 tsp onion powder
1½ tbsp white miso
1 tbsp nutritional yeast
3–4 tbsp unsweetened soy milk
1 tsp sea salt
Black Pepper
2–3 tbsp freshly chopped chives (stir in after blending)

How to make it:

Add everything except the chives to a blender and blend until smooth and thick but spreadable.

Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, then stir through the chopped chives.

Store in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 5 days.

Tip:
If you’re sensitive to raw garlic, roast it in the oven until soft before blending — it mellows the flavour beautifully and is easier to digest.

Plant-based comfort that actually satisfies 💚

Your guide to winter eating 🍎

Here’s the truth about your diet in winter:
your body doesn’t want juices, smoothies and cold salads.

It wants warm, nourishing, comforting food 🍲

When the weather is cold, your nervous system and digestion are already working harder.
Piling on cold, raw foods often has the opposite effect of what you’re aiming for.

Eating salads might feel like the “healthy” choice — especially if weight loss is the goal — but in winter it often leads to:

more cravings

lower energy

poorer digestion

increased stress on the body

Warm, nutrient-dense meals help your body feel safe and supported.
When the body feels safe:

appetite regulates

blood sugar stabilises

you stay fuller for longer

the nervous system calms

Ironically, eating in sync with the season often makes weight loss easier, not harder.

This isn’t about comfort eating your way through winter.
It’s about eating in a way your body recognises and responds to.

I’ll be sharing warming winter recipes that support both your body and your nervous system - keep an eye out!

Is your nervous system flexible? 🤸‍♀️

If your nervous system can move into fight or flight quickly and then back into a parasympathetic state quickly, then it is!

This means that you can deal with difficult situations, but you can come out of those situations and feel okay again fairly quickly.

What you want to avoid is being stuck in the fight or flight state.

And if you find yourself often getting stuck, this is when you need to take action to improve.

Because it can end up impacting your long-term health, which is often where chronic illness comes from.

Not sure what state your nervous system is in? DM me ‘NERVOUS SYSTEM’ and let’s talk it through🤍

8 signs you’re stuck in fight or flight 👀

Nervous system regulation starts with awareness.
You can’t change a state you haven’t recognised.

If you’re in fight or flight, your job isn’t to push harder, optimise more, or “fix” yourself.
It’s to meet the state you’re in and respond appropriately.

Here are 8 signs you may be stuck in fight or flight:

😣 Tightness in the chest
😣 Headaches
😣 Feeling on edge or jumpy
😣 Increased irritability — everything gets under your skin and your reactions feel out of proportion
😣 Racing thoughts
😣 Deep tiredness (even if you’re wired)
😣 Anxiety
😣 Strong cravings to dopamine your way out — food, shopping, Netflix, alcohol, gambling, scrolling

If you recognise yourself here, don’t mess with your nervous system.

This is not the moment for discipline, restriction or pushing through.
This is the moment for calming, grounding and safety cues.

Regulation first.
Everything else comes after.

I’ll share simple ways to do this in my next post — keep an eye out.

5 easy ways to get your body out of fight or flight 🙌

Social media loves to tell you that nervous system regulation means more:
more clean eating
more workouts
more supplements
more protocols

But when you’re stuck in fight or flight, more is often the problem.

Regulation usually comes from less — less stimulation, less pressure, less trying to fix yourself.

If you’re in fight or flight and want to come out of it, these are my go-to resets:

① Step away from the gym
Hard workouts can keep you stuck in stress mode.
Lying down, reducing stimulation, and genuinely resting often does far more for your nervous system than pushing your body.

② Plant your feet and shake
Stand barefoot if you can. Shake out your arms, legs, jaw, shoulders.
This helps discharge excess stress energy from the body.

③ Push hard against a wall
Strong, steady pressure gives your nervous system a sense of containment and support.
Simple. Grounding. Very effective.

④ Bang a cushion into the bed
Physical expression helps move trapped energy out.
It doesn’t need to look pretty to work.

⑤ Scream into a pillow
Sometimes frustration needs an outlet.
Anger may come first. Tears often follow.
Both are regulating.

From a food perspective — don’t overthink it.
Stick to 3 proper meals a day.
Eat enough protein.
Reduce ultra-processed foods.
And don’t fast — restriction signals threat and keeps you stuck in fight, flight or freeze.

If you feel chronically wired, exhausted, anxious, or unable to switch off — this isn’t a willpower issue.
It’s a nervous system pattern.

And it’s changeable.

THE EVERYDAY LENTIL PASTA 💚

Simple. Nourishing. Easy to throw together.

Red lentil pasta tossed with roasted courgette, peppers and mushrooms, finished with a generous spoon of vibrant pesto.

High-protein, plant-based, and perfect for an effortless lunch or dinner.

My go-to combo? red lentil pasta with their basil pesto.
Great quality, clean ingredients, and none of the unnecessary extras.

This is the kind of comfort food your nervous system actually likes — grounding, satisfying, and genuinely nourishing.

Comfort food that loves you back 🍝🌱

DM me ‘2026’ to get started!

Planning to detox this month? Read this first ⬇️

A lot of people want to detox in Janaury and I get it.

You’ve had a highly stressful, busy (the good or bad type of busy) Christmas period and likely overindulged a bit.

So detoxing by cutting everything out feels like the best way to course correct (and lose a bit of weight).

Although in theory, this sounds like a great plan, the reality is that doing this can wreak havoc on your nervous system.

If your nervous system is fried after the festive period and you start to starve your body, you're going to push it further into flight or fight. And I promise you that won’t make you feel any better.

So here’s what I recommend instead:

😌 A gentle reset, I often use a simple Ayurvedic Cleanse with clients.

😌 Using a Kitchari recipe for 2-3 days. It's nourishing and calming to the digestive system. Goal is not to feel hungry, the goal is to feel nourished.

😌 3 meals a day, no snacks - this helps reset the snack habit you've likely built up over the Christmas period.

😌 Focus on incorporating gentle, grounding movement like walking and yoga.

Not only will this help calm and rest your nervous system, but you’ll likely lose those few additional pounds too but without the feeling of heavy restriction.

All you need is a few minutes and the right techniques! ✨

Each of these techniques offers an easy way to move your body out of fight or flight mode!

I use different tools on different days, depending on how much time I have and how I’m feeling.

I trust I know when to use them because I know what feels right for my body- this comes with practice and trying out different techniques, so feel free to experiment to find what works best for you!

If you need more personalised guidance when it comes to resetting your nervous system and reaching your health goals, pop me a DM and let’s chat🤍

If you picked A, read this⬇️👀

If you want to start 2026 feeling balanced, healthy, happy and energised instead of dull, exhausted and anxious, things need to start changing now.

I have one space available to work with me before the end of the year.

So if you want to get started on improving your health before the festive season, then pop into my DMs asap and say ‘HOLA’

BUT…

Only do this if you mean business.

I want to work with people who are as dedicated to improving their health as I am.

I give my all to my clients, and I care deeply about helping them. But for this to work, you need to be just as committed!

I’ve seen clients transform their health, body and mindset whilst we’ve worked together, and I want that for you.

I want you to start January feeling like you can confidently and calmly handle the year ahead and feel GOOD while doing it 💪

A regulated and restorative end of year is here if you want it.
