🤒🤧😷 It's that time of year. ⁣Here are some tips for getting better if you're sick:

1. Drink lots of fluids. Hydration is key, and when your body is fighting a virus, it needs even more than typical.
2. REST and recover. You can't get better if you never take a break. Rest is just as important as work in all aspects of life.
3. If you're hungry, eat. If you're not hungry, don't. Both overeating and undereating can stress the immune system, causing it to not be as effective as it could be in fighting those bugs that get passed around. Listen to your hunger cues and follow your body's lead.
4. Focus on immune-boosting foods, like garlic, chicken noodle soup, green tea, honey, and elderberries.
5. Supplement with pre- and probiotics if you can. Focus on Vitamin C, zinc, and ginseng, but some people can find a boost with quercetin, beta-glucan, stevia, and selenium as well. Some whole food resources for these are asparagus, garlic, Jerusalem artichoke, leek, onion, barley, beans, oats, quinoa, potatoes, yams, apples, bananas, berries, kiwi, flax seeds, chia seeds, fermented foods like cheese, yogurt, kefir, kimchi, kombucha, pickles, sauerkraut, miso, tempeh, soy sauce and wine.
6. Use immune-boosting supplements if needed. I personally recommend store-bought supplements as a last resort, but if you can't get what you need through whole foods for whatever reason, it doesn't hurt to look into them. Be careful, though, because supplements are not regulated and some can contain a lot of fillers.

Cloudy day? No worries. Try wearing a brightly colored scarf or shirt to change your mood. We’re influenced more than you might think by our surroundings… and having bright colors can also brighten your mood! What's one of your favorite colors that puts you in a good mood?

It's Workout Wednesday!

I don't have a video because I'm not yet able to do video editing and such, so bear with me. You'll have to settle for just some text and a picture of that text for now.

Here's the workout:

4 Rounds, for time
400m Run/Walk
15 Burpees https://youtube.com/shorts/T2jwprC0_Vg

Complete 4 rounds of the exercises as written. Record your time if you like. Modify the movements as needed. Modify the movements as needed. Email or text me if you have any questions.

You can find more demonstration videos and follow along workouts on my coaching YouTube channel here:
https://www.youtube.com/

Don't forget to warm up and cool down before and after the workout. Our goal is to stay injury-free!

I currently host live workouts here on the farm Monday through Friday at 8:15am. Email me at [email protected] for the address and to let me know you're coming so I can make sure I set up the class properly. (Don't send me a message, I probably won't see it.) These classes are free/donation-based and mostly held for accountability (mine and yours). Email me with any questions or concerns. See you on the farm!

I am still trying to gauge interest in a 5am workout class here on the farm each weekday morning. Classes will be $10 each, or you can pay $100/month for unlimited classes. Please email me at [email protected] if you are interested in attending 5am classes. (Again - don't send me a message, I probably won't see it.) Once I have enough interest in the classes, I can start hosting them. Have an idea for another class? Let me know!

Can't make it to class, but still want to do the workouts at home or at your favorite gym? Email me (please don't message me on this platform!) at [email protected] and let me know; I'll be happy to send you the workouts so you can complete them on your own time.

Quick reminder: if you want to place an order for gluten-free baked goods to pick up at the market this weekend, you need to email us at [email protected] by tonight to let us know what you'd like. Send in those orders so you don't have to make it to the table before we sell out!

A little pre-workout caffeine can actually make a buzz-worthy difference. It can help give you a little boost during your workout and reduce both physical and mental fatigue. About 200 mg (one cup) 20-30 minutes before your workout should do the trick. (Cookies to dip into your coffee are optional.)

We are looking forward to seeing everyone in person at the markets this week! This Saturday, June 20, we will be at the Martinsville Farmers' Market from 8am to noon, and the Farmers Market from 9am to 1pm, with your favorite gluten-free goodies.

Email us at [email protected] to place your preorder for pickup at the market by 6pm on Wednesday so that we can make sure we have everything to make your order.

This weekend, we plan to definitely have brownies, ladyfingers, sourdough loaves, hamburger buns and bagels on the table. What else do you think we should have in stock with us? Let us know!

It's time for a mental health self-check.

Have you taken any time to check-in with yourself and make sure your needs are being met? Here are some questions that can help you get started:

How am I feeling emotionally/physically right now?
What's been on my mind lately?
What do I need to feel better?
What brings me joy or what am I grateful for?
What small self-care step can I take today?

Most people who come to nutrition coaching already know what a healthy, balanced meal looks like.⁣ The real question they have is: How do I consistently eat healthy, balanced meals in the context of real life?⁣ You know, like “I got home late, after a long meeting, then my toddler spilled an entire bottle of olive oil on the
kitchen floor!”⁣
⁣
With these meal prep strategies, I teach clients exactly how to have healthy food ready when they need it.⁣ The result? A fridge full of fast, healthy options to choose from, even as life continues to unfold.⁣

1. Look ahead at your week - which days will be the busiest (and need more prep)?
2. Make a menu - make a list of ideas for what you'd like to eat this week.
3. Shop - this is the longest step; buy the stuff you need to eat!
4. Cook - do all the time-consuming stuff: chop veggies, cook the meats, etc.
5. Store - pack your food the way you like. Some people make full meals they can grab and go; some people prefer to pack each dish separately so they can make the plate they feel like eating that day. Do what works for you.

Some tips: lean on one-pot meals, slow cooker recipes, and components that go with anything (like grilled chicken, steamed or roasted veggies, easy carbs like rice or beans you can make in a big batch). Most importantly, keep it simple!
