To a healthy start- self care and self love

Instead of doom-scrolling and draining my energy, I chose cooking time and a gut-friendly meal.

In my bowl today: savoury oatmeal made with AYAM veggie cube and frozen vegetables simple, nourishing, and comforting.

My goal is to stay consistent with healthy meals, clock my 6–10k steps, and take care of my body from the inside out.

Small choices. Big love for myself. 💚

1/9 Edited to

Starting my day with a nourishing meal like savory oatmeal has been a real game-changer for my energy and mood. Using wholesome ingredients such as veggie cubes and frozen vegetables makes the cooking process straightforward and keeps the dish packed with nutrients that support gut health and overall wellness. I've found that pairing mindful eating with daily physical activity—aiming for 6,000 to 10,000 steps—creates a powerful combination that uplifts both body and mind. These small yet consistent choices not only enhance physical health but also improve mental clarity and emotional balance. Self-care for me means more than just the occasional treat, it’s about establishing routines that honor my body’s needs from the inside out. This holistic approach has helped me reduce feelings of overwhelm and avoid unhealthy coping mechanisms like doom-scrolling. If you're looking to cultivate self-love, start by prioritizing what you feed your body and how you move it daily. It’s amazing how these intentional acts can bring us closer to feeling grounded, energized, and truly cared for.

Today, I wasn’t expecting to hit my usual goals, as I took part in Thaipusam by carrying a milk pot on my head, weighing around 5kg. By the grace of Lord Murugan, my family and I were able to complete this walk of faith safely and peacefully. After abstaining from food throughout Saturday, I allow

No matter what happens, keep showing up. I keep hearing about poor health caused by years of neglect. I won’t go into details, but it’s a reminder to keep moving and try to eat better. It’s okay to snack just be mindful of your portions. I’ve started making it a habit to walk after lunch, e

Some days, even starting feels heavy. But then I remember why I began in the first place. I thought about getting a walking pad, but space can wait commitment can’t. So I walked where I could, marched where I stood, and still showed up. One step at a time, right at home. My goal is 6–10k steps.

It was a long day. I walked from home to the temple, then headed to my favourite coffee shop for a kopi o kosong. I had my home-cooked meal and was later offered a chocolate bar all the way from Japan. I took one piece, since I had my own snacks packed a red apple and some nuts. Dinner was simple

Had my double peanut butter pancake around 11am with kopi-o kosong, followed by lunch, some chocolates, then walked in the rain and came home to my overnight oats. I still showed up for myself by completing my meal prep for the rest of the week.

Meal prepping can be tiring, but I’d rather eat mindfully than make poor choices. When hunger hits, it’s easy for me to reach for convenience, French fries, chocolate, quick fixes like Maggi mee or instant meals. Today was a good, easy day. I walked a lot and had lunch with my homies at a Punjab
