Have you ever wondered why your body is the way it is and no matter what you do, it seems nothing is working?

We are bombarded with messages from fitness influencers and the likes showing us how our body should look like at a certain age. Good for them that they have those bodies! The reality is our body adjusts at every stage in our life. Our current circumstances whether it’s our environment, family dynamics (marriage, divorces, pregnancy, kids leaving the nest, aging parents), work stressors, and even constant travels affect the way our body works.

Our body may never look the same as it was 20 years ago, but you can definitely regain your energy and be even stronger in your later years if you look after it. It’s a big bonus if you look even better than when you were younger. But, our goal should be to HONOR how our body will help us get through the years as we transition through various stages in our lives. Protect your body in as much as it tries to protect you.

If you need guidance in navigating through the transitions in your life, feel free to DM me and I will get back to you for a quick conversation.

What’s for breakfast?

Because I have easy access to baby spinach, I just have it most of the time. I make sure I have a protein and fiber rich meal to start my day. This is the same thing I serve my daughters to keep them alert in school the whole morning. No energy crashes in the morning.

2 eggs
a handful of baby spinach
a squeeze of lemon juice
100 gms or more of cherry tomatoes
1 Tbsp of olive oil
parsley (optional)
Sea salt and freshly ground pepper

Place the cherry tomatoes in a bowl and drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Sear them on a small pan or roast them in the oven for 20 mins at 180C. I don’t have much time in the morning so I do it on the stove top. Once the skin starts to blister, add in the chopped parsley. This will take around 8-10 mins. Turn fire off and put in a bowl. Mash gently. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.

Squeeze a bit of lemon juice and a pinch of salt on the spinach and just mix thoroughly.
Beat the eggs.
Spray your pan with olive oil. Add in your beaten eggs. I like stirring it a bit then just letting it cook a bit. Add the spinach and fold. Place on a plate and top with the tomatoes. Season with freshly ground pepper.

*I am not a chef so I usually go by taste, the time I have to prep, and what I currently have in the ref. So, adjust according to what works for you.

If you want a light and nutrient-densed meal, Ina Garten’s roasted salmon with herbs fits this. This is an excellent dish if you are looking into balancing your hormones. You have your protein and healthy fats from the salmon and olive oil. The herbs and lemon support digestive health and have anti-inflammatory properties. Having salad greens on the side contribute to your fiber intake for the day.

I made adjustments to the measurements as my salmon is around
650-700 gms.

650-700gms skinless salmon fillet
Sea salt and freshly ground pepper
1/3 cup olive oil
11/2 TBPS fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup spring onions, chopped
1/4 cup dill, chopped
1/4 cup parsley, chopped
1/3 cup white wine

Preheat oven to 220C.
Season salmon with sea salt and freshly ground pepper.
Mix the olive oil and lemon juice. Pour over the salmon, and let sit for 15 mins.
Mix the 3 herbs together then place on top of the salmon and underneath.
Pour the wine around the salmon.
Roast for 10 to 12 minutes until almost cooked in the center. I cooked mine for 11 minutes. Place a foil on top to let it rest.

I served this with a mixed salad of baby spinach, shredded carrots, cherry tomatoes, alfalfa sprouts, and chopped raw almonds.

Dressing:
1/4 cup EVOO
1 Tbsp maple syrup
1 Tbsp peanut butter or tahini
1 Tbsp lemon juice
Sea salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

The more you eat veggies, the more your body looks for it. Let your body get used to the best stuff! Just like Popeye 😉 (the younger generation won’t probably know who I am referring to 😁)!

Button mushrooms with spinach

200 gms button mushrooms
125 gms or more baby spinach
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 tsp dried thyme
1 Tbsp butter
1 Tbsp juice of lemon
sea salt and pepper to taste

Clean the mushrooms and just break them in chunks. You can also slice them if you prefer it that way.
Wash and drain the spinach.
Sauté the minced garlic in a tablespoon of olive oil for a few minutes without burning it.
Add in the mushrooms and cook for a few minutes until they are soft.
Add the butter and thyme (rub between your fingers to release its oils and flavor before adding). Mix throughly.
Season with salt and pepper.
Put in all the spinach. Once they start wilting turn the fire off as they will wilt from the heat.
I like adding lemon juice for an extra boost of vitamin C and which also helps our body absorb the non-heme iron present in spinach.

Living a healthy lifestyle is not just for me. It’s also for my family and those around me. When I feel good physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually, I can engage better with others.

It always starts at home. Your family is your anchor, your source of strength and inspiration. You keep it strong so you can have something to fall back on when times get tough.

I make sure that my children get fed healthy food as much as possible. It’s that one aspect in their life that they can count on because they don’t have much time to do themselves. But, I know it sticks with them when they are on their own. And, something I hope they carry when they have their own family.

Be consistent. Be patient. Your weight is not the only indicator that you are progressing.

If you are sleeping well and waking up refreshed, if you have regained your energy and not feeling fatigued anymore, if your skin is glowing, or if you have daily bowel movements, then these mean that you are progressing. Our body takes time to recalibrate but you will get there. Trust the process. Stop comparing.

Feed yourself the good stuff both in mind and body so you can live longer and better.

Always think, “Is this good for me?” Asking yourself this gives you a moment of pause which makes you more likely to pick the best choice for your well-being.

Midlife can be chaotic. But this season is not about losing yourself. It’s discovering that there is MORE of you - more wisdom, strength, and clarity of what you want. So, listen to your body’s needs, be in the present season, and more importantly, give yourself permission to rest without the guilt.

When powerful things come in small packages…

These micro-greens and sprouts may be small but they sure pack a lot of nutrients and antioxidant properties. They are in my excellent list of foods to enjoy in .ph360 to support cellular repair and menopausal health.
They can be eaten raw or cooked. It’s also easy to grow them indoors if they are not available in your supermarket. Growing these kept us busy during the pandemic 😊.

For this salad, I got broccoli and mustard sprouts, and mixed them with bib lettuce and carrots. Dressing was just juice of lemon, extra virgin olive oil, sea salt, and freshly ground pepper.

Are there any types of food that you are focusing more on now to support your health at this stage?
