Greetings

Welcome to the December edition of In Balance Physiotherapy newsletter.

If you want to improve your fitness, you don’t have to make drastic changes to your life. Long-lasting fitness success is often based on consistent, small changes you make to your daily routine. These simple and small changes, such as including short bursts of exercise into your day and making mindful snacking choices, can significantly improve your overall health and well-being.

The 80/20 rule is based on the Pareto Principle, which allows for a balanced and flexible approach to eating. The Pareto Principle suggests that 80% of your results come from 20% of your effort.

When you apply this rule to your diet, it means that if you focus on eating nutritious whole foods such as fruits, veggies, whole grains, lean protein options, and healthy fats 80% of the time, you can spend the remaining 20% on less healthy options, including your favorite treats, without feeling guilty.

The 80/20 approach to diet provides a more sustainable eating pattern as opposed to a strict diet, making it easier to maintain over the long term.

December is filled with festive cheer and is marked by many celebrations, including Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and New Year’s Eve. It’s a time to celebrate with loved ones and create lasting memories. Amidst the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, it’s important to prioritize spending time and cherishing the moments spent with family and friends.

Here are two simple recipes to enjoy for lunch or dinner.
