Overall Health & Wellness

My approach to health is holistic, focusing on the interconnection between physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing. I believe in:

  • Balanced Nutrition: Eating whole foods with a focus on plants, lean proteins, and healthy fats while maintaining flexibility.
  • Mindful Eating: Paying attention to hunger cues and enjoying food without distractions.
  • Stress Management: Regular meditation, adequate sleep, and mindfulness practices to keep stress levels in check.
  • Preventive Healthcare: Regular check-ups and staying informed about health research.
