Cara Klein - Encouraging Wellness

Post-partum feels

Eww what’s this?? This is me being a busy new Mum but wanting to support my body. I find it’s so much simpler putting my powder supplements together. So what’s in here? Water! + Nutrition Care Gut Relief + Designs for Health Tri-Mag Supreme Night .... I also put some supps in my morning smoothie too.. more on that later 😀

We definitely have a different way of thinking these days

This is my outlook most of the time that I’m awake lately

So this page has been quiet for a while as I’ve been busy brewing this little human! She is now 8 days old ❤️. And I’m not going to sugarcoat that I’ve struggled with the transition. This birth was not easy and it has affected our first week together. I obviously love her with all of my heart and soul, but as new parents it can be tough and what we all need is real talk not and the worst word in our vocabulary ! So I’m all about and doing our best for ourselves and our children that we can, that’s real encouragement.

Home garden update! Check out our rocket!! And the beautiful lettuce and chives are doing well! We’ve also got some tomato’s , basil and even corn brewing in a little greenhouse ready to transfer to the outside soon ❤️☀️ 🌱

Looking for an easy and healthy mid week dinner? How about DIY steamed sweet potatoes? Only 20 mins to steam the potatoes in a trusty steamer and chop up some fresh delicious veg... and don’t forget some cheese.. mmm cheese.

Old school advertising! But seriously.. Celery is brilliant! Especially if you’re having some toilet troubles as it’s full of fibre and water.. if the taste is not massively appealing then it can be cut up and added to a salad or had with some nut butter... 🤤

Spring has sprung for our nectarine tree!!

Naps!! I’m a nap lover and don’t apologise for it at all! We seem to have developed a culture of ‘go, go, go’ but our bodies are screaming for us to slow down and listen to them. Since I have started to be able to study from home on my own schedule,and given up caffeine 🤪, I’m listening to my body more and am now allowing myself the naps that my body is craving. Also; side note: studies show napping can reduce risks of cardiovascular disease... win!

WATER! It’s a habit that I myself have trouble keeping. We all need at least 2 L per day. Why? All of our cells and energy rely on it.
Ever had a headache you can’t explain? It could very likely due to dehydration. Dehydration could also lead to dry skin, slow healing times and much much more.
