Spring into Outdoor Wellness: Energizing Movement & Fresh Seasonal Meals

Shake off the indoor blues and embrace the invigorating power of the elements! No matter the forecast, today’s weather is the perfect excuse to move your body and clear your mind.

🚶‍♀️Why Move Outside Today?

Outdoor movement offers a natural boost in:

  • Mood and mental clarity

  • Vitamin D levels

  • Energy and circulation

For an added fitness challenge, try a weighted vest—even a brisk walk becomes a strength-building, calorie-torching workout. 🌤️

Ditch the excuses. Feel the sun (or the breeze), breathe deeply, and rediscover how great your body was built to feel.

🥗 What’s Cooking This Week: Spring Meals with Clean Protein & No Dairy

This week, we’re keeping it clean and seasonal: high-protein, anti-inflammatory meals with fresh spring produce—and zero dairy. Perfect for hormone health, gut balance, and sustained energy.

🍤 1. Spring Asparagus & Shrimp Stir-Fry

Why It Works: Shrimp is light but packed with protein. Spring veggies like asparagus and snap peas are loaded with fiber and antioxidants.

Ingredients:

  • Shrimp (or chicken/tofu)

  • Asparagus

  • Snap peas

  • Garlic powder, lemon juice, salt, pepper

Method:

Sauté shrimp until pink. Add veggies and cook until tender-crisp. Season and serve over cauliflower rice or greens.

🍣 2. Grilled Salmon with Lemon-Herb Roasted Asparagus

Why It Works: Omega-3s in salmon reduce inflammation and support hormonal health.

Ingredients:

  • Salmon fillets

  • Asparagus

  • Olive oil, salt, pepper

  • Fresh herbs (dill, thyme, or parsley)

  • Lemon wedge

Method:

Roast asparagus at 400°F with oil and herbs. Grill salmon until flaky. Serve with lemon and enjoy!

🍖 3. Lamb Chops with Roasted Spring Vegetables

Why It Works: Lamb is rich in iron and zinc, while seasonal veggies offer a colorful nutrient boost.

Ingredients:

  • Lamb chops (or chicken/beef)

  • Spring onions, asparagus, radishes, bell peppers

  • Olive oil, garlic, rosemary, salt, pepper

Method:

Marinate chops for extra flavor. Roast veggies. Grill or pan-fry chops to your liking. Plate together.
