SHEREE'S HEALTH DIARIES
Dear Beautiful Soul,
You’re not going to believe where you are right now. The smile on your face cannot be shaken and the love in your heart will never fade. You are sharing your light, you are sharing your gifts with the world and you are expanding and exploding with joy.
Your soul aligned mission on this earth that has been divinely guided is being lived in right here, right now.
I know where you are in this moment is tough, I know that it feels like the world is crumbling around you and at times like it is all too much. I know that this is not where or how you pictured your life at this point and I want you to know that it is okay to grieve that.
I also want you to know that it is all coming. This is the initiation. A chance for you to reset. To realign your life to your higher calling, to your deeper purpose and also a chance for you to be the fullest, most beautiful expression of yourself.
It is by stepping into this version of yourself that you will attract everything that you’ve ever wanted and more, and let me tell you… it is SO MUCH MORE than you could’ve ever dreamed.
I want to take a moment to see you, to recognise the strength you have had, the vulnerability you have shown, the beauty you have been amongst the chaos and your willingness to continue the fight.
I also want you to take a moment to acknowledge how far you have come and how much you have accomplished, your younger self would be so proud of you if she could see the woman you have become now. Honour that.
You are beautiful, loving, kind and beyond words. This life may not be kind at times, but remember… No one else in this world can do what you do, the way you do it, and that my darling is your superpower.
It is my hope for you that you will trust the path you are on right now, and know that God/Universe/Source has your back every step of the way.
I wish you could see yourself the way the world sees you, you light up every room you are in, your heart transcends the time, space and fear and allows others to feel safe and seen, your ability to simply be is enough. You are enough, exactly as you are.
I love you. I love you. I love you. Thank you for being you, thank you for existing and remember to never stop shining your beautiful light, the world needs you. I need you. You are enough.
And so it is.
With love,
Your Higher Self

THIS IS WHAT’S DRAINING YOUR ENERGY

SHEREE'S HEALTH DIARIES
More sleep isn't the answer to your lingering fatigue
Sure, more rest can definitely help you feel less tired, but you need to address what the underlying issue is that's draining your energy in the first place
You might see this everywhere, but gut inflammation is very closely linked to fatigue
If your body is constantly inflamed from the foods you're eating, the stress you're feeling, or not recovering effectively from training, it will really start to zap your energy levels
REASONS GUT INFLAMMATION IS MAKING YOU FEEL TIRED
These are the top 3 reasons why gut inflammation is causing you to feel tired all of the time:
1. You're not absorbing nutrients from your food
Gut inflammation can lead to poor nutrient absorption, meaning you're not getting enough vitamins and minerals from the food you're eating, leading to fatigue and low energy.
2. Your immune system is running in overdrive
The immune system uses so much energy to fight inflammation and repair damaged tissues, which can take away from your daily energy stores and make you feel fatigued.
3. Your hormonal balance is completely disrupted
Gut inflammation negatively affects the production of hormones, particularly cortisol, causing imbalances that could be contributing to your decreased energy levels and your feelings of fatigue.

How To Eat Chocolate Guilt Free
HOW TO ENJOY YOUR EASTER CHOCOLATE GUILT FREE

SHEREE'S HEALTH DIARIES
HOW TO ENJOY YOUR EASTER CHOCOLATE GUILT FREE… Without messing up your hormones!
You’re allowed to have your cake and eat it too (or easter eggs in this case)
When it comes to our health and eating habits, especially at this time of year, it can be very easy to find ourselves OVER-EATING or EMOTIONAL EATING… 😓 and an overindulgence in refined sugars and processed foods can send our hormones into haywire!
I’m here to help you ditch the guilt and eat intuitively whilst keeping those hormones happy! 🙌🏽
As someone who really used to struggle with binge eating, especially around Easter I can totally relate, and know the battles that can be going on in your mind right now 😣
I also know how much it used to end up affecting my mood, my energy and ultimately my next period because I had overindulged
Believe it or not, we actually have internal hunger cues and appetite regulators that help tell us when we are due to eat, and when we are full 🤯
However, I also know we are human 😅, and these can be easily overridden when it comes to emotion, stress, boredom or even hormonal imbalance
I want you to be able to go enjoy your easter eggs or hot cross buns with freedom, or choose not to from an empowered place 🍫😍 🙌🏽
Instead of focusing on what you can’t have, focus on what you really want! 🤩I can’t tell you the amount of times I have actually passed up chocolate, ice cream and cake because I really didn’t feel like it, 👌🏽 and other times where I have devoured more than my share! 😅
However, there was a time where bingeing was my go to, 😓 followed by purging…
I won’t even tell you what happened to the poor giant Reese’s pieces peanut butter egg that I ate in one sitting 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️ But that was before I found the balance I now have 😍 There is no restriction, so there is literally no need to binge or purge 🎉🎉🎉
TIPS FOR CHOOSING WHAT TO EAT FROM A HEALTHY PLACE
I give myself full permission to have what I want, when I want, and this for me is truly FREEING! 🥳 However there are a few key things I also do, so that I know that I am making the decision from a healthy place.
- Ensuring I have had a protein rich meal, with plenty of leafy greens too, this way I know I am satiated, have given my body a bunch of nutrients and I won’t be trying to satisfy the hunger by filling myself up with sugar.
- I then practise intuitive eating, by asking myself and answering honestly - ‘Is this going to serve me right now?’ And the answer may very well be YES, I might really feel like the chocolate and want to savour and enjoy it, or I might check in and see I’m actually not that hungry right now and having the chocolate is only going to make me feel too full and bloated and that’s not fun. The key is to understand, there is no wrong answer.
- If I do choose to enjoy the chocolate (and I know at some point over Easter weekend I most definitely will), I am really present and mindful with it. I don’t just snack away in front of a screen, or mindlessly consume it without even realising I’m eating it. Instead, I notice the feel, taste, texture and sweetness of it as I enjoy every mouthful/piece. Mindful eating is an amazing practice to practise.
- Finally I make sure I am keeping on top of my supplements, magnesium is amazing to keep on top of sugar cravings, but also support your hormone health and reduce that stress hormone cortisol from floating around unnecessarily. I take this daily, and sometimes increase it during times like these to support my body.
FINAL THOUGHTS
By listening to my body, hunger cues, feeling into whether or not I am wanting the chocolate 🍫 from a place of lack and emotion, or because I truly want to enjoy it and savouring every delicious mouthful, has been a GAME CHANGER! 🤩🤩
And if it worked for me (with my history of ED), then I know it can work for you! 🙌🏽
Listen to what your gut is telling you (like seriously), take that pause and then make your decision from a place of empowerment and completely GUILT FREE! 😁
HAPPY EASTER!!
Yours in Health & Happiness,

7 Daily Habits For A Healthy Gut
7 DAILY HABITS FOR A HEALTHY GUT
15 / MARCH / 2023
SHEREE'S HEALTH DIARIES
WANT TO KNOW HOW TO HAVE A HEALTHY GUT AND KEEP IT THAT WAY?
It’s probably not what you’d think, and some of these may surprise you with just how easy they are… Small things done consistently, is what makes the biggest difference!
HERE ARE MY TOP 7 DAILY HABITS FOR A HEALTHY GUT
- BOWEL MOVEMENT(S)
Having a daily bowel movement - this is a non-negotiable to keep the gut clean and healthy, it means you are eliminating toxins and your detoxification pathways are open (and if this isn’t happening for you, DM me!) - BONE BROTH
A morning mug of bone broth before I start my day helps line my gut with nutrients to support a healthy gut lining and feed my good bugs! There are so many benefits of bone broth, read about it here - BELLY BREATHING
Deep belly breathing to activate my rest, digest, reproduce and repair system (PNS), if you are living in fight or flight (often unknowingly), you will be chest breathing. This takes blood away from your digestive system and can actually lead to bloating, indigestion, and other gut issues. - EXERCISE
Regular movement = regular movement, and I mean that quite literally, get your body moving so your bowels do too! Even if you are just going for a 30 minute walk daily it will really support your gut and how it functions! - PROBIOTICS
I personally choose to take probiotics on the regular to keep growing the diversity and richness of my gut microbiome (aka increase the amount + quality of my good bugs). But quality is important… if you aren’t sure where to start, DM me! - FIBRE
Fibre is the toothbrush for your gut, you don’t want any plaque building up (yes that happens in your gut, not just your teeth)... So adding a regular serve of leafy greens and other non-starchy veggies to main meals keeps you regular - WATER
Drinking 3L + of water each day keeps your body hydrated so the cells can communicate effectively, and it also keeps your stools flowing regularly, we aren’t a fan of constipation around here!
*BONUS HABIT* I have also been loving the addition of @mitchells.nz gut supporting teas, having ‘digest well’ in the morning and ‘digest soothe’ before bed to help me unwind!
FINAL THOUGHTS
All of these habits continue to make sure that I am managing my gut health, keeping my body in a state of flow and allowing my body to keep having a regular healthy bowel movement each day so I can absorb my nutrients and have the energy to thrive!
What ONE habit are you going to add to your day to help your gut health? Let me know in the comments below!

How To Survive Temptation During The Holiday Season
HOW TO SURVIVE TEMPTATION DURING THE HOLIDAYS
7 / DECEMBER / 2022
SHEREE'S HEALTH DIARIES
First of all, let me start off by saying there is NOTHING wrong with treating yourself any time of the year, and I am not here to support restriction or guilt when it comes to food!
I however also know this time of year can be really hard for a number of us who may have struggled with unhealthy eating habits or maybe you are still healing your relationship with food
December rolls around, and it can be so tempting to over-indulge on the chocolates, wines and festive treats… And I get it, as someone who used to struggle with binge-eating as a way to cope with stress, the holiday season used to be when I'd go ALL OUT!
But then I'd end up feeling like crap - crashing from all the sugar, bloated, and puffy and often end up rather moody at the time I wanted to be my happiest self
It's also not fun when you get to the end of the year and you feel like all of your hard work has gone out the window for a moment of sweetness or treats!
TIPS TO STOP BINGE EATING
Here are 3 things I did to help stop the binge-eating (which work especially well at this time of year) and I hope they help you too!
1. Up your protein intake
Before going to a holiday function or gathering, I always make sure to have a protein rich meal or smoothie so I know I am going to be satiated before I arrive, and less likely to mindlessly snack on things in front of me
2. Eat plenty of veggies
Whether you are going out, or staying in, the temptation often appeals more when you are hungry, so on top of adding in protein, make sure you are getting leafy greens and other beautiful colours on your plate, this might be veggie sticks, a salad or some sautéd broccolini it's up to you
Not only will this boost your micronutrients, but it will also keep you fuller and from there you can action step 3!
3. Enjoy the treat mindfully
If you've had the protein and veggies and still feel like that Christmas cookie, give yourself permission to enjoy it guilt free, and REALLY enjoy it
Don't scoff it down, or do it in secret, just be really present with it, eat it mindfully to enjoy the flavour of every mouthful and bite
But always ask yourself... is this going to serve me right now? And maybe the answer is yes (and that's fine), and maybe you realise it's not (and that's fine too), at least this way you are making a choice from an empowered place!
