Writing My 1st Book

August 26, 2020November 23, 2021 JP

I am in the middle of writing my 1st ever book. It will be a cookbook compiling and curating all my favourite recipes into one place. As I am embarking on my final year (4 of 4!) in Nutritional Therapy in a few short weeks time, I routinely provide meal ideas to my clients to help them make better choices around food and improvements in personal performance.

I am, like many of you, a busy parent, husband, employee, friend, colleague and son – so many hats! I like simple recipes that call for a handful of well chosen ingredients, which when carefully combined can get nourishing wholefoods onto the table with minimal fuss so everyone can fill up and be happy.

I personally road test each and every recipe and tweak it for my own personal twist where possible.

A Mindset Approach for Dealing with Covid-19

I hope everyone is doing ok out there in the world where Covid-19 still rages wildly. Here in Ireland, we are seeing cases rise now each day and have begun to reintroduce restrictions into society to try and suppress the virus once again.

It is an unbelievable time of uncertainty and for alot of people this brings new levels of heightened anxiety. I feel it too. What happens if this happens, what happens if that happens….it’s an endless spiral that does you no good.

One Year + No Beer = DONE

For many years I had a niggling voice in the very back of my mind about the booze. The little voice used to say things like:

What would life be like if you didn’t drink alcohol anymore
What cool stuff could you achieve in your life if you were no longer tethered to alcohol as a means to have a good time
Could you achieve health, fitness and weight goals easier and more consistently if you did not have alcohol dragging you back down into excuses and setbacks
Would removing alcohol help me live better, happier and more truer to myself
