Tips & Nutrition Guidance

  • Balance macros: Aim to include protein, some healthy fat, and fiber (whole grains or vegetables) so you stay full.

  • Prepare ahead: Overnight oats, egg muffins, or baked oatmeal are great for busy mornings.

  • Add variety: Rotate flavors, fruits, greens, nuts, spices (cinnamon, cardamom, turmeric) so you don’t get bored.

  • Watch added sugars: Use natural sweeteners (fruit, a bit of honey / maple) rather than too much refined sugar.

  • Portions matter: Even healthy foods can add up in calories if portions are too large.

Find your constant.

Feed your temple.
