The closer you are to nature, the closer you are t

The closer you are to nature, the closer you are to health. This pretty much sums up The Body Retreat food philosophy. 80% of the time choose to eat real whole foods, that have little or no processing, that are local, seasonal and organic if possible. It’s simplistic but it works ... eat food that nourishes your body and your brain and you won’t go far wrong 🤩 .

Eat More Plants Now full disclosure we are a Meat

Eat More Plants Now full disclosure we are a Meat Eating Retreat... but we are HUGE advocates of Eating More Plants and Less Meat. This is decision that has formed our food philosophy for both health and ethical reasons. So you won’t be surprised to learn that about 70% of the recipes on our Conscious Cooking Blog are plant based. So if you are plant curious today on World Vegan Day then some of our Conscious Cooking Recipes might be just the place to start. Click the link in the BiO To go check it out

Willpower Have you got it? Do you want it? Is it

Willpower Have you got it? Do you want it? Is it positive? In today’s Bitesize Behaviour Workshops we were chatting about Willpower. Most people who crave think they lack willpower, and that cravings and stress eating are due to weakness, but that’s simply NOT the case. When we ignore our physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual needs; and push ourselves throughout the day, restricting, depriving and forcing ourselves to behave in a way that really isn’t natural for ourselves we can end up craving. We shared a variety of ideas how to stop using Willpower as a stick to beat yourself with. It starts with recognising that there is no one size fits all when it comes to achieving and maintaining the body, health and well-being you want and deserve. What do you think when you think about Willpower? .

Juicing Many people see fresh fruit juice as the

Juicing Many people see fresh fruit juice as the best way to get a mega-dose of health – but is that entirely true? Now I think that juicing CAN be a great way of super dosing vitamins, mineral and antioxidants.... BUT it is never a replacement for developing a good relationship with whole food. Whole food always wins. The problem with juicing is that is removing the dietary fibre (yes there is still soluble fibre), fruit juice’s fructose is absorbed more quickly. This can not only have an impact on your pancreas and insulin production but more much more important as fructose is metabolised by the liver if you are stressed, on medication, have an autoimmune condition then this can actually cause problems for liver health. Non alcoholic fatty liver disease anyone? Juicing has had a bit of a shift away from the high fruit content juices recognising the negative impact of fructose on health.. I particular liver health and so therefore immunity. These days the majority of good quality juices contain a good dose of vegetable... but check the label as you’ll possibly find that your Green Juice is actually 50/60% Apple juice. Of course I’m not saying that fruit is bad or juicing is bad ... but it is not the holy grail of health ... in fact for some individuals it can actively work against health and wellness. Just a thought 🤔 .
