IFS & Emotional Eating || How the Internal Family Systems framework makes sense of disordered eating lilykoi hawaii 2023-04-14 | Hello friends!Today is all about the Internal Family Systems (IFS) framework that uses "Parts Work" to learn about and heal our complex wee psyches.

Your nervous system is sabotaging your diet || + What I ate Today lilykoi hawaii 2023-04-07 | Hello friends!Today we'll start diving in to the nervous system and emotional eating connection, particularly the relationship between the vagus nerve (part of the autonomic nervous system) and our urge to comfort eat.I hope having this knowledge about how the ANS and vagus nerve associate food (eating) with safety & connection will encourage you to be a little kinder toward yourself in the moments you feel the urge to reach for comforting food.Some Reading to Consider:(None of these speak directly to eating as a strategy of nervous system regulation, but they’re great general resources of nervous system function or IFS.)Remember to check your local library or your library app for these resources!Anchored: How to Befriend Your Nervous System Using Polyvagal Theory:amzn.to/3zKA7vfAccessing the Healing Power of the Vagus Nerve:amzn.to/43b2LDrIntroduction to Internal Family Systemsamzn.to/3zF6Dz6(Full Transparency: Amazon links are “affiliate links.” This means that if you make a purchase from Amazon using my link, at no additional cost to you, I’ll receive a small commission.

Back & Here to Stay! Life & Work Update (Spoiler: Community & Coaching is coming!) lilykoi hawaii 2023-03-31 | Hello my dear YT friends,I've been gone for so long! And for that absolute absence, part of me is very sorry -- but several other parts are really not sorry because it's been so good to be away! I've been in such a cool exploratory and learning phase, but I'm ready to be back and excited to make more videos and work with some of you more intensively in the near future.Because health and wellbeing are so much deeper than what we WANT to eat... And what we want to eat isn't always what we end up eating...So if the idea of a shared community (membership) space where we can dive deep into healing our relationships with food, our bodies, and all of our parts appeals to you, stay tuned! And let me know in the comments below!Thank you all for hanging in there. Your support and encouragement has meant a lot to me (and all my parts 😂)! Looking forward to seeing you all next week!
The End of Emotional Eating Embracing the Wisdom & the Map to Healing lilykoi hawaii 2021-08-14 | Hello my friends!Today marks the beginning of the Emotional Eating Mini-Series (nested within the Weight Loss Series). The Steps in this series are:1.) Embracing the Wisdom of Emotional Eating2.) Laying the Foundation of Safety3.) Learning Nervous System Resourcing3.) Healing and Integration (will likely take 2-3 videos to fully cover)Today's video is on the Wisdom of Emotional Eating and talks about WHY some people develop the coping mechanism of Emotional Eating in the first place. This discussion centers on the legitimate need many of us have have for nervous system soothing in the face of unbearable overwhelm.We also discuss how that "unbearable overwhelm" develops, exploring the idea of the nervous system's "Window of Tolerance" and why some of us have smaller Windows of Tolerance than others.We'll also take a few minutes to appreciate the deep wisdom and reliable soothing of Emotional Eating. Acknowledging that moving our relationship with Emotional Eating from angry warring to gentle acceptance is a powerful first step toward healing and integration.

I Ruined my Skin with Skincare + Healing Skincare (Oumere Review) lilykoi hawaii 2021-07-16 | Hello all!I want to acknowledge that the brand I mention (Oumere) is pricey, which I know means will be inaccessible to many of us. I generally do not believe in spending lots of money on high-end personal care products, but in this case I made an exception for the following reasons:- My skin had been quickly damaged by the skincare I was using, including vitamin C serum, hyaluronic acid, alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), and benzoyl peroxide that were used as directed. I was very motivated to stop and reverse that damage using evidence-based ingredients.- My skin was in a very inflamed state, which was causing very deep, painful, cystic breakouts. As anyone who has experienced these types of breakouts know, the inflammation becomes a self-perpetuating cycle that can create a lot of damage (pitted scars, lumps of scar tissue). I was very motivated to address and reduce this inflammation and heal the damage that had been done.- After spending so much money on products that contained “trendy” ingredients, I didn’t want to spend any more money on products that aren’t evidence-based or heavily-tested while in development. I also saw the trouble caused by my DIY concoctions!- During my teens and early 20’s, I had A LOT of unprotected sun exposure, including many, many sunburns to my face and body. Though I feel my lifestyle choices have mitigated some of the visible effects of that damage, there’s no way to escape the full effects of lots of sun exposure. - Despite being expensive, using the full Oumere range is cheaper than pursuing dermatological resurfacing treatments, like Picosure Laser Treatments and Microneedling (which were recommended to me to address the collagen depletion and acne scars), which I now know would have likely led to more long-term damage and a potentially increased risk of cancer initiation.Please feel free to ask more questions in the comments section below, if you have them!Here are some of the Oumere blog posts that changed my perspective on the skincare ingredients I was using and treatments I was considering:💦Hyaluronic acid:oumere.com/blogs/news/part-1-hyaluronic-acid-vs-vaseline-one-hydrated-the-skin-the-other-dried-it-out-can-you-guess-which-oneoumere.com/blogs/news/cosmetic-hyaluronic-acid-causes-skin-dryness-so-we-took-it-out-of-our-formulasoumere.com/blogs/news/hyaluronic-acid-does-not-hold-1000-times-its-weight-in-water-not-even-close🍊Vitamin C:oumere.com/blogs/news/the-3-reasons-why-vitamin-c-serums-are-bad-for-your-skinoumere.com/blogs/news/how-vitamin-c-serums-cause-acne-in-healthy-skinoumere.com/blogs/news/the-10-ways-vitamin-c-serums-destroyed-your-skin-as-reported-by-yououmere.com/blogs/news/the-scientific-papers-supporting-vitamin-c-serums-skin-benefits-are-flawed🌋Retinol:oumere.com/blogs/news/creams-cannot-remove-wrinkles-bakuchiol-and-retinol-will-age-and-damage-the-skin-and-a-discussion-on-exfoliating-body-washes-ask-a-skin-care-biologist🌱Essential Oils: oumere.com/blogs/news/essential-oils-the-fragrant-danger-in-your-skin-care💉Microneedling:oumere.com/blogs/news/how-dermarolling-causes-collagen-breakdown-premature-aging-and-possibly-canceroumere.com/blogs/news/the-10-ways-microneedling-destroyed-your-skin-as-reported-by-you💸Mass Produced/Standard Skincare:oumere.com/blogs/news/by-the-time-you-read-this-the-antioxidants-in-your-skincare-are-already-deadoumere.com/blogs/news/the-5-unnecessary-and-damaging-skin-care-products-that-are-in-everyone-s-routineoumere.com/blogs/news/you-ve-tried-everything-and-your-skin-is-still-dry-these-are-the-10-reasons-whyoumere.com/blogs/news/the-50-ingredient-red-flag-list🌿“Natural” Skincare:oumere.com/blogs/news/your-natural-non-toxic-skin-care-is-extremely-cytotoxic🥔Melasma mentioned:oumere.com/blogs/news/are-clay-masks-safe-can-melasma-be-treated-can-hyaluronic-acid-injections-age-my-skinImportant Note:Please remember that no video or opinion could ever take the place of the advice of a qualified medical professional.

Food Rules arent Bad (but they can be) || Healthy Diet vs. Orthorexia lilykoi hawaii 2021-06-26 | Hello friends!Having “rules” (restrictions) about foods we prefer to avoid is not automatically a bad or indicative of pathological disordered eating patterns.It 100% can be, but there are — in my experience and opinion — important distinctions. Today, we’re diving into the three most important distinctions (imho). 1.) Internal values systems2.) Mindset3.) Whether we use food for emotional regulationI hope you enjoy the discussion and please feel free to add to it in the beautiful comments section down below.So much gratitude for being able to connect with each and every one of you, truly.

My DIET RULES for Easy, Permanent Weight Loss lilykoi hawaii 2021-06-22 | Hello my friends,I want to be extra-super-clear that these are the choices that have worked for me. There are many, many, many people who eat and live differently from the way I do, and that’s okay! That said, I’ve gotten to know my body and my metabolism very well over the years. What I’ve learned is that my body (affected by years of caloric restriction, hypothyroidism, and chronic fatigue) thrives on a diet of whole plant foods that excludes the foods and dietary patterns mentioned in this video. If I include these foods in my diet, I gain weight (often very quickly). Since I value maintaining my health (which, in my scientifically-informed opinion, includes maintaining my weight), I happily choose to eat the way I do.Does this mean you have to eat the same way? Absolutely not!Does this mean you’re a bad person (or doomed to “fail”) if you eat the foods I mention in this video? Absolutely not!You get to choose the way you prefer to nourish yourself, just like I do.This video is my attempt to be absolutely honest about the way I choose to maintain my health and weight.Because I believe information is power. When we have authentic information, we have access to data that allows us to make informed choices. When we are informed, we are truly empowered to make choices that align with our deepest values and current goals.———————Polenta Pizza Recipe video:youtube.com/watch?v=TVGKmzyIj9cBanana-Oat Cookies Recipe video: youtube.com/watch?v=6qtpSCLsvawAdvanced Glycation End Products video:youtube.com/watch?v=xOiIyE6fyFcMy Favorite Teas video:youtube.com/watch?v=hdlBAQrJs4s My Favorite Bean Recipes video:youtube.com/watch?v=ik7Ckdd5MqQ--------------------Here are some of my favorite information resources for Easy, Permanent, Health-Enhancing weight loss strategies (check out your local library or pick up your own copies):How Not to Diet:amzn.to/3xGxzLWHow Not to Diet Cookbook:amzn.to/3j0zqHdHow Not to Die:amzn.to/3j0aUWxHow Not to Die Cookbook:amzn.to/2UoGPWCThe End of Dieting:amzn.to/3xDUV4x-------------------Important Note:Please remember that no video or opinion could ever take the place of the advice of a qualified medical professional.

Perfect Plate for Easy Weight Loss || NO MORE RESTRICTION! lilykoi hawaii 2021-05-22 | Hello everyone! Today we're exploring the design of the "Perfect" Plate for restriction-free weight loss. As we've explored throughout past videos, restriction of calories or food volume only leads to eventual weight GAIN and CRAVINGS. So done with that!!!! My goal for meals is to be fully nourished (which I consider having access to all the MACRO and MICRO nutrients my body needs) and fully satisfied (which means at the end of a meal, I feel comfortably full, sated, and content). The fact that I can achieve this while still reaching and maintaining a healthy, comfortable weight (for me) speaks to the deep wisdom of eating a whole plant food-based diet.The “Perfect” Plate (for Lunch/Dinner):1/2 Non-Starchy Vegetables1/4 Legumes1/4 Whole Carbohydrate-Rich Food+ Healthy fat (mindful of portion size)+ Flavor (mindful of the effect on sensory-specific satiety)Please feel free to leave questions and/or requests for future video topics in the comments section below. I do my best to respond to those as I'm able. And, of course, I really, really, really, reallllllly appreciate and enjoy all the love I read down there, too!

Appetite: The Key to Easy Weight Loss on a Plant-Based Diet lilykoi hawaii 2021-04-20 | Hello my friends!I hope this video is able to offer some clarity in response to several questions about how to determine if we're consuming adequate calories to ensure basal metabolic rate doesn't drop due to caloric restriction.We cover the wisdom of listening to one's appetite, important questions to ask one's self regarding appetite and "allowed" food intake, the difference between appetite and craving, and many nuances that can influence appetite (and our ability to accurately perceive appetite cues).I hope you get a lot of value from this discussion and please feel encouraged to leave further questions in the comments section down below!

Weight Loss without RESTRICTION + What I Ate Today lilykoi hawaii 2021-04-03 | Ok! We've all agreed not to purposefully calorie restrict any more... Now what???Now we facilitate permanent weight loss by:1.) Naturally and safely increasing metabolic rate (we'll go into deeeeeep detail in upcoming videos).2.) Letting our natural appetite regulating mechanisms function by eating foods our bodies can register, digest, assimilate, and eliminate; i.e. whole plant foods.3.) We reduce caloric density while maximizing nutrient density. That's what we're talking about in this video!📚Books Mentioned:Salt Sugar Fat: amzn.to/2QTlqTwThe Pleasure Trap: amzn.to/3wpBcG0Great to find these at your local library and/or by using your library card to access a FREE LIBRARY APP for ebooks and audiobooks.

Diets Always Fail: How Calorie Restriction CAUSES Weight Gain lilykoi hawaii 2021-03-19 | Long time, no see, my friends! As promised (a really long time ago), it is time to revisit the subject of evidence-based weight loss. Today we're taking a dive into the metabolic-slowing effects of PURPOSEFUL restriction of calorie intake, recommended by virtually every weight-loss diet program in the world.Somehow--despite literally billions of failed calorie restriction attempts--marketing departments trying to sell the public weight loss plans still promote purposeful calorie restriction even though ample clinical evidence is available to prove that such diets slow the metabolism and prime the body to regain as much fat tissue as possible once extra calories again become available.

Dill and parsley would be the classic choice, but I didn’t have any, so I used garlic chives and some fresh oregano from my garden. (Which added a bit of a spicy kick!)-Mix all ingredients together. You can enjoy immediately or let it sit for an 1-8 hours to let the flavors integrate. Usually, I like to make this while the potatoes are still hot, as the heat mellows the flavor of the fresh garlic and encourages the potatoes to soak up all the flavor. Then I let the potatoes cool, which creates the resistant starch mentioned towards the end of this video! Curry/Dahl1-2 cups dried split peas, green or yellow (the more you use, the thicker your curry will beSeveral cups of whatever vegetables you’d like to include. Here I added eggplant, onion, carrots, potatoes, celery, and green beans. I leave them in big chunks as the split peas need 12-15 minutes in the pressure cooker and smaller cut veggies will disintegrate.2-3 bay leaves (optional)3 cloves garlic, rough chop1 inch of fresh ginger, chopped finely1 package of extra firm tofu (I do not cook the tofu in the instant pot. Instead, I marinade it in tamari and add it into the hot curry once it is already cooked.Spice Mixture (ground)2 tbsp vindaloo curry powder1 tbsp cumin seed1 tbsp dried mustard seeds2 tsp turmeric1 tsp black pepper1 tbsp coriander seed-Add all ingredients into the pot-Cook in the instant pot on high pressure (I use the Bean setting) for 15 minutes.

The Omega 3 Supplement Scam? lilykoi hawaii 2019-07-03 | Consider a wide range of information pertaining to EPA/DHA omega 3 fatty acids so you can make an INFORMED decision about whether or not to supplement with a low-dose supplement containing preformed EPA/DHA.I chose not to supplement for many years and assumed my body would convert enough ALA to EPA and DHA. After doing more research on the importance of EPA/DHA and genetic/lifestyle factors that can inhibit conversion, I decided to take a low-dose supplement that contains approximately 250 mg/day of DHA, plus some EPA.It's up to you to decide what's best for your circumstances.My Detailed Omega 3s video:youtube.com/watch?v=ilwNZ778YAM&t=204sThe VegSource Omega 3 Supplement Video: youtube.com/watch?v=c8_kTtWUnf8&t=223sHigher circulating individual and total omega 3 fatty acids associated with lower total mortality (please note, this study is one of many which contradict one another. It would be a mistake to base one’s entire lifestyle around such inconclusive findings, but I view this as supporting evidence that *reasonable* levels of DHA/EPA in the blood, IN CONJUNCTION WITH A WHOLE PLANT FOOD DIET, is likely harmless and perhaps beneficial due to potentially low EPA/DHA conversion in modern vegans/vegetarians):annals.org/aim/article-abstract/1671714/plasma-phospholipid-long-chain-3-fatty-acids-total-cause-specificStudy Indicating fish eaters better protected from heart disease than vegans:academic.oup.com/ajcn/article/70/3/516s/4714974Vegetarians have lower levels of DHA/EPA.

My Tubal Ligation at 24 - Convincing my Doctor, Recovery, Regrets & Post Tubal Ligation Syndrome lilykoi hawaii 2019-05-27 | After years of asking, at 24 years old, a doctor finally agreed to give me a tubal ligation surgery.

What the surgery & recovery process was like, 3.) Symptoms associated with Post Tubal Ligation Syndrome (my Fallopian tubes were cauterized, no clips or other foreign objects were used in my procedure), and 4.)

Trusting our Natural Hunger + What I Ate Today lilykoi hawaii 2019-05-18 | Hello YouTube Friends!I feel so happy to be coming to y'all this week with an invitation to meet, learn about, and accept ourselves in a deeper way. Though so many of us have been taught to treat food intake and weight issues as purely physical problems, in my experience, these topics have deeply rooted links to our most fundamental beliefs about our worth, trustworthiness, and acceptability. If we are safe enough and willing enough to meet and accept ourselves with curiosity and compassion, our confusion about food intake and struggles with our weight can be wildly transformative.

Gluten-Free, Vegan Bread || THE HOLY GRAIL RECIPE || The Sexy Tablespoon lilykoi hawaii 2019-03-23 | It's Gluten-Free. It's Vegan. It's Oil-Free. And it's Whole-Grain. Oh... and it's moist/damp-but-also-warm. I hope you enjoy!Psyllium Husk Powder: amzn.to/2Cy51KrInstant Yeast: amzn.to/2JyXnVRVitamix Dry-Grains Canister: amzn.to/2umfnsc Our Bread Maker: amzn.to/2CuYJuLBread Recipe:Dry Ingredients:1 cup Brown Rice1 cup Oat Groats1 cup Rolled Oats1/2 cup Millet1/2 cup Buckwheat1/2 tsp Salt1-2 tbsp Sugar3 tbsp Psyllium Husk Powder4 tbsp Flaxseeds (equals approximately 5 tbsp of ground flaxseed)Wet Ingredients:3 cups Water1 tbsp Blackstrap Molasses (organic)1 tbsp INSTANT YeastMethod:1. Mill whole grains using milling method of your choice. (If you do not have access to a dry-canister or grinder, simply use store-bought whole grain flours, though please be aware this will affect how much water is needed to achieve dough consistency. That will depend on the humidity in your area and type of flours used, so add in water slowly.)2. Mix in additional dry ingredients.3. Add water, molasses, and instant yeast. 4. Stir vigorously until combined.5. Place into bread maker and use Ultra-Fast, Quick-Bake, or Gluten-Free setting. The setting that works best for mine is takes about 2 hours. High-heat settings appear to achieve the best rise!Oven-Baking Method (I haven’t used this method, as we don’t have an oven, but this is my best guess based on bread-making techniques I learned in culinary school.):1. Place mixed dough into an oiled loaf pan. 2. Put in the MIDDLE of a WARM oven for 30 minutes.3. Turn oven up to 350-375 F for about 60 minutes. Keep an eye on it to prevent over-browning.“Hummus” Recipe:I cup/can White Beans1 clove Garlic1/4 tsp Salt1/2 bunch Garlic ChivesRosemary, oregano, thyme, or any other Italian herbs you enjoy!Blend until it’s the consistency you prefer. Use some of the bean liquid to thin if desired.(Please note: Many oats are CONTAMINATED with traces of gluten during harvesting and processing. If you are MEDICALLY GLUTEN FREE, this is NOT the recipe for you. Alternately, you can SUBSTITUTE the oats for certified-gluten-free oats or other gluten-free flours. I'd recommend the Bob's Red Mill Oats OR Bob's Red Mill Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour. Hope that covers all the bases!)☽ CONNECT ☾@lilykoihawaii #legitdeliciousinstagram.com/lilykoihawaiitwitter.com/lilykoihawaiiLiwai @808plantfat: goo.gl/IibvReLily Koi Hawaiion facebookgoo.gl/eY7hHe☽ READING RECOMMENDATIONS ☾goo.gl/Lix3JZ
Rawvana & Raw Alignment - NO LONGER VEGAN + What I Ate Today lilykoi hawaii 2019-03-22 | Rawvana and Raw Alignment have attracted big followings by promoting some very questionable dietary/lifestyle habits and projecting (along with most YouTubers/Instagram influencers) an unrealistically "perfect" lifestyle.Fortunately, succeeding on a vegan or a plant-based diet is possible if we refrain from unnecessary/harmful "healthy" habits and...

Kalels Not Vegan Anymore + What I Ate to Stay Health on a Long-Term Vegan Diet lilykoi hawaii 2018-12-07 | My friends, the ways we choose to nourish ourselves (or not) while eating vegan diets matters. Our lifestyle choices have consequences. Our state of mind affects our health.I'm sad to hear Kalel has been unwell and that she's decided to start eating animal products again. It seems like a very misguided choice that is ignoring the more likely causes of her ill health. Here's hoping she and her doctor keep exploring other options.**Please take care of yourselves:**What is a wisely planned vegan diet?: youtube.com/watch?v=e4QnnREelWMSupplements to consider on any diet: youtube.com/watch?v=H2nFdKwFLuk&t=33sB-12: http://amzn.to/2sldQThThe SAFEST Omega-3’s you can find: http://amzn.to/2sZcJ9PVegan Vitamin D3 1,000 IU: amzn.to/2AwcsDo Liquid Vegan D3: amzn.to/2N0vmY0Vegan D3 2,000 IU: amzn.to/2MD6bez☽ CONNECT ☾@lilykoihawaii #legitdeliciousinstagram.com/lilykoihawaiitwitter.com/lilykoihawaiiLiwai @808plantfat: goo.gl/IibvReLily Koi Hawaiion facebookgoo.gl/eY7hHe☽ LIFESTYLE BASICS ☾ are covered here: goo.gl/9Xr3jRQuestions about Weight Loss, Calories, Nutrition, and Exercise???
