Love savory breakfast? Then this recipe is for you! These Zucchini Pancakes are a healthier version of hash browns. They are also great for lunch or a light dinner. Besides being vegetarian, these pancakes are also gluten-free because it uses buckwheat flour instead of regular wheat flour. Buckwheat flour is made from grinding buckwheat groats, the triangular seeds of a flowering plant (Fagopyrum esculentum). Buckwheat is not at all related to wheat and is naturally gluten-free. The ingredients are fairly easy to find with the exception perhaps of buckwheat flour. If you don't have any gluten intolerance or allergy, just substitute all-purpose flour for buckwheat flour. You can also try oat flour. Just know that it won't form as well because of the absence of gluten in oats. NOTE: If you have Celiac Disease and want to use oat flour for this recipe, use gluten-free oat flour like the Bob's Red Mill brand. Although oats are naturally gluten-free, they are almost always processed in a facility that also processes wheat. So, cross contamination occurs. Oats that are labeled gluten-free mean that the oats were processed in a dedicated facility for products with no gluten. No wheat, rye or barley were processed in that facility. Enjoy this recipe! And don't forget to share with us if you try making these Zucchini Pancakes or if you give your own twist to it! . . . . . . . #soulthrivewellness #holistichealth #healthylivingtips #holistichealthcoach #healthcoachtips #healthyrecipes https://www.instagram.com/p/CM3xFYnH2f5/?igshid=te75lmf1wjrh

Want healthy habits to overwrite bad ones? Do it one step at a time. Small steps make a huge difference over the long run. First, decide on one health habit to work on. Then, just do that CONSISTENTLY. That is the key. Don't let more than one day slide by. If you fall off the wagon, just get up, dust yourself off and get back on again. No need to moan endlessly, berate or judge yourself. No need to overthink. Figure out what went wrong and make the necessary adjustments. Then, get back on track. Just doing this one thing 1% better everyday will compound to a world of difference in your health and life. Many of us fall into the trap that we want to do it all at once--have that transformation overnight. This kind of strategy hardly ever works. Let's take our cue from nature. Nature unfolds gently, little by little that you hardly notice anything happening. Like flower buds. Then, one day, it suddenly blooms into its full beauty. . . . . . . . #soulthrivewellness #healthhabits #healthylivingtips #consistency #holisticwellness #healthcoachtips https://www.instagram.com/p/CM1BJmwncEH/?igshid=iebhhnm5nmdo

Everyone knows smoking is bad for your health, but sometimes knowing isn’t enough to make you stop.

Set a date for quitting and tell as many people as possible to help hold you accountable for your actions. It's best to pick a day within the next month - a date too far off in the future will give you a chance to procrastinate and postpone, while a time too soon may not allow you to make a plan for medications or support systems.

Notice when and why you smoke. Try to find the things in your daily life that you often do while smoking (such as drinking your morning cup of coffee or driving a car).

Change your smoking routines: Keep your cigarettes in a different place — smoke with your other hand.

Take these steps toward a healthier you! If you need extra support, don’t hesitate to reach out.

Nothing beats chilling in nature after a good yoga practice, even that piece of nature is just a patch of grass a lone moringa tree, and a couple of tortoises!

Especially when you go barefoot! Grounding or earthing, in which your skin contacts with the earth allows negative ions to go into your body. These negative ions act as antioxidants, neutralizing harmful free radicals! Yes, antioxidants! And it's free!

Read more about it in Clint Ober and Dr. Stephen Sinatra's book, "Earthing: The Most Important Health Discovery Ever!"

Or you can watch the full documentary movie, "The Earthing Movie: The Remarkable Science of Grounding" on YouTube.

What's YOUR go-to chill place?

One of Lao Zi’s famous sayings is, “The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.” And indeed, it is!

When you have a destination in mind, whether it’s one just around the block or across oceans, will never be reached unless you take that first, single step. Then, follow it with another and another and another till, eventually, you reach your goal.

It’s the same with wellness. Wellness is a journey. You will not be on it unless you take that first step.

For me, the first step to wellness it deciding to take responsibility for my health and learning what steps I can take to become healthier.

I hope that the Healthy Living Tips that I will share over the next few days will help you with this!

What do you consider to be your first step to better health? Comment below!

We are all different, with different needs and challenges. So, there are no right or wrong answers to this question. Only answers that are right for your unique self.

Keep life and meals simple. It saves time and avoids confusing your digestive system. Simpler meals lessen the work load of the digestive system. Here's a super simple salad for you. SIMPLE GREEN AND ORANGE SALAD Whisk lemon juice and olive oil. Place in salad bowl. Place your choice of greens in the bowl together with the dressing. Gently toss the leaves till dressing lightly coats all the leaves. You can use your hands so that it's gentler. Don't forget to wash your hands first! Gently place the greens onto a plate. Do it in three batches, gently placing one layer of greens over the other. Place cut up mandarin oranges on top. Sprinkle nuts or seeds of your choice. I used hemp seeds. Enjoy the light, tangy flavour of this salad! . . . . . . . #salad #greensalad #soulthrivewellness #healthandwellnesscoaching #healthcoach #healthyrecipes #healthyliving https://www.instagram.com/p/CL_i9cBnqUq/?igshid=198ht5tybajtk

Laughter and sleep, who doesn’t want more of both in their lives?

Schedule time to enjoy a funny movie, or spend an afternoon with friends who make you happy.

Getting enough sleep is also a requirement for good health. Sleep reduces stress and improves your mood. It also helps you think more clearly and complete tasks more efficiently.

Do you wish you had better-eating habits? Most of us do!

Here are a few tips on keeping a healthier diet:

1. Eat three meals a day - breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Keep in mind that dinner does not have to be the largest meal. In many cultures the largest meal is consumed in the middle of the day.

2. The bulk of your diet should consist of vegetables and fruits.

3. Choose healthy fats and lean meats, poultry, fish, beans, eggs, and nuts for your protein--preferably pasture-raised, grass-fed, free-range, or organic.

4. Opt for gluten-free whole grains like rice, quinoa, adlai or Job's Tears, sorghum, amaranth, buckwheat and millet.

5. Control portion sizes. Eat the smallest portion that can satisfy hunger and then stop eating.

6. Avoid eating a large meal before sleeping to decrease gastroesophageal reflux and weight gain. Have your last meal 2 to 3 hours before sleeping.

7. Avoid rewarding children with sugary snacks.

8. Snacks are okay in moderation and should consist of items like fruit, nuts, salads, or sweet vegetables (like sweet potatoes and carrots) to satisfy hunger and not cause excessive weight gain.

“Love yourself enough to live a healthy lifestyle.” Show yourself some more self-love by nourishing yourself with a Strawberry Cucumber Salad. Strawberries are considered an aphrodisiac! They are high in antioxidants that improve blood flow. Strawberries contain quite a good amount of Vitamin C which is important for producing sex hormones and chemical neurotransmitters in the brain. These, in turn, increase libido. Of course, the classic way to serve strawberries as an aphrodisiac is to dip them in chocolate! It’s fairly easy to do. In a double boiler, melt some butter and a bar of dark chocolate. There are variations to this basic recipe. Some add cream. Others add liqueurs like Kahlua, Bailey’s, Amaretto, or Grand Marnier (Cordon Rouge). To make this salad, just toss some spinach, sliced strawberries, sliced cucumbers, half an avocado (also sliced), and nuts or seeds of your choice with the following dressing: coconut milk, oilive oil, lemon juice, basil, your preferred sweetener, pink salt and pepper. . . . . . #soulthrivewellness #lovemonth #selflove #strawberries #veganfood #cucumber #strawberrycucumbersalad #plantbasedrecipes https://www.instagram.com/p/CLFDYsqHqez/?igshid=7gi2khuubzs0
