The 10 best inspirational feel good podcasts you need in your life

Balanced LifeLife Purpose, Vision & Goal Setting
I love podcasts! Especially the inspirational feel good podcasts! I used to be a huge YouTube fan but about half a year ago discovered the podcast world and I've got hooked. I used to watch, well mainly listen to, YouTube videos while cooking, cleaning and folding the laundry to make these boring tasks a bit more interesting. But it wasn't very effective. I had to look at the screen from time to time, so things went a bit slower than they would've without this distraction. As I don't have much time, I had to figure out something because I absolutely hate cleaning. Need some entertainment to make it somehow more bearable. I don't mind folding the laundry and cooking but they can get boring too. Used to love cooking, trying new recipes and getting creative in the kitchen. But since I have two picky eaters in the house, cooking became pretty boring. Just making the same meals over and over and over again. (Of course, I experiment a bit, introducing new foods, but usually with not much success). I also like learning new stuff and these minutes or hours during household chores could potentially be used for that too. First I started to listen to audiobooks. It was good but I prefer reading. Going back to a sentence I liked, thinking about it, highlighting it, getting involved. With audiobooks, it is really difficult to go back and find again what I liked. 10 best inspirational feel good podcasts you need in your life ...

Low-carb or low-fat? How to lose weight?

Healthy Weight Loss

The diet industry makes you feel confused

Low-carb or low-fat? Are you confused about what to eat? I'm not surprised. There are so many different diets out there contradicting each other it makes your head spin. The popular Keto diet tells you to eat high-fat, low-carb foods to lose weight and keep your blood sugar under control (to prevent or control diabetes), while others advocate a high-carb, low-fat diet to prevent or reverse heart disease and diabetes and lose weight. Bodybuilders say you need to eat a lot of protein to build muscle and lose fat, while doctors/scientists tell you that too much protein in your diet causes cancer. So now what? What should we eat to be healthy and lose weight?   Low-fat or Low-carb? How to lose weight?   ...
Get rid of bad habits with the power of your brain

Use your brain to get rid of bad habits – 5 effective steps

How to get rid of bad habits

This post is about how to get rid of bad habits by using neuroplasticity. Our brain is amazing. It waits for our orders patiently and executes them diligently. The brain controls automatically our breathing, heart, and digestive system and it processes all the information coming from our sensory organs (eyes, ears, nose, mouth, skin). We can learn new things, remember old experiences, recognize objects and people all because of our brain. If our brain is so powerful, why is it not able to make us happy? Why can't we use our brain to get rid of our bad habits, such as smoking, overeating, drinking, procrastinating, overspending, laziness, swearing, nail-biting, worrying, being late all the time? Why doesn't it help us eliminate depression, frustration, fear, and other unpleasant mind states?

simple vegan protein pancakes with peanut butter and berries

Extremely simple vegan protein pancakes

Recipes
Let me introduce you to these extremely simple vegan protein rich mini pancakes. They are my favorite Sunday breakfast when I want to eat something other than fruit, smoothie or oatmeal. These protein pancakes can easily keep me satiated till lunchtime. The fun part is pouring all kinds of yummy things on top of them. My two favorites are peanut butter plus berry sauce (frozen berries warmed up a bit) or plant based yogurt plus fruit. Mango or strawberries are sooo good. I'm sure you have your favorite combos too.

[irp posts="664" name="Acai smoothie bowl for breakfast"] I increased the protein content by adding vegan protein powder and flaxseeds to the batter. Flaxseeds are very healthy, we should eat 1 tablespoon every day, according to Dr. Michael Greger, famous American physician. He introduced the so called "daily dozen" foods, from which we should eat every day, if we want to be healthy. I will write about the daily dozen in a future post, so stay tuned :-) So why are these small seeds so healthy? They are one of the best sources of essential omega 3 fatty acids, they contain cancer preventing lignans, control the cholesterol, triglyceride and blood sugar level, anti-inflammatory and prevent constipation too. The recipe for the pancakes is extremely simple: just blend the ingredients with a blender or hand held mixer and cook about one tablespoon amounts in a little coconut oil. Now comes the fun part, decorating them :-) ...

Increase your happiness and confidence with these 3 simple life changing tips

Balanced LifeEmotional Eating
  This post gives you three simple tips to increase your happiness and confidence. Marisa Peer, a famous British psychiatrist, has been treating many famous people including Hollywood stars, Olympic athletes, rock stars, politicians, billionaires, and the royal family. She believes that the following tips will help us become happier and more fulfilled in our lives.  

3 Secrets of Happiness

Something is missing from your life

Do you ever feel that something is missing from your life? Maybe love, relationships, success, money, happiness, or an attractive body. In the vast majority of cases, this lack does not have a physical reason that would prevent you from acquiring these things. Your own limiting belief, that this thing is unavailable for you, makes you unable to get it. For example, if a child's parents were not happy with each other, they had divorced, or one parent left the other, as an adult, he is also unable to have a happy relationship. Or she grew up in a family where everyone was overweight, therefore she feels, there is no other option, she must be overweight too. Another example: he grew up in poverty, therefore he believes, he also has to face financial problems throughout his life. This fixed belief system, however, can be changed, and transformed, it is not engraved in stone. Our brain can be programmed to believe that we can and deserve to have everything we want for ourselves. But how? How can you increase your happiness? ...

We all know that antioxidants keep us healthy and we should aim to eat as much of them as possible. You know that, right?

So what is this acai berry? It comes from Brasil, it contains a good amount of vitamin A and C, a lot of fiber, calcium, iron, potassium, zink, magnesium and omega 6 - 9 fatty acids. It is, as most of the berries, a very low calorie fruit. You can sometimes find it frozen in health food shops but much easier to get hold of it in juice or powder form. In this recipe I used a powder. Most of the powders are produced by lyophilization (freeze drying), this way the useful ingredients are preserved. Instant Energy For Busy Moms, 7 day smoothie challenge It is well known that banana makes our smoothies nice and creamy. It is also rich in fiber (no more problem in the loo) and contains tryptophan, which turns into serotonin, our happy hormone, in the body! Do we need more? Ok, maybe some healthy fats would be nice too. That we get from the walnuts and flaxseed. As a bonus, they also make the smoothie creamy and they contain protein as well. As we know from the equation of healthy eating, leave greens are the healthiest foods in the world. In the form of spinach we have some of them in this smoothies as well. You will not taste it, I promise! [irp posts="626" name="What is the equation of nutrient dense, healthy eating?"] Acai smoothie bowl, acai reggeli tál

What is the equation of nutrient dense healthy eating?

Healthy LifestyleHealthy Weight Loss
Did you know that there is an equation describing the nutrient dense healthy foods and differentiating them from not so healthy and junk food. I will show you this system in this post. Cardiovascular disease causes 1 of every 3 deaths in the US. Cancer is the second leading cause of death globally, and is responsible for about 1 in 6 deaths. I have friends in their 30s who are battling with cancer. IT IS SCARY! In my family almost everyone has some kind of cardiovascular disease or diabetes or both. The parents of my friends/classmates started to die due to the mentioned diseases. It is very worrying. I have always been interested in healthy eating and lifestyle but mainly because of vanity; just wanted to look young and slim. But now I feel I need to take the healthy side of it really seriously. I started to research the topic more deeply and I'm going to share with you what I learned.  7 days meal plan for weight loss, nutrient dense healthy meal plan
