The power of nutrition, finding motivation, and self-kindness: Ixta Belfrage and Miriam Krug

Why I… Move - A podcast by ELLE UK

Categories:

In this episode, Liv speaks to friend, chef, and author Ixta Belfrage about her love of food and cooking, her time in the Ottolenghi test kitchen, and her celebration of bold recipes in her new cookbook. Ixta speaks about growing up in a very healthy household in Italy and having a nutritionist mum and the influence this had on her relationship with food and nutrition. They are joined by Nike Well Collective Trainer Miriam Krug, whose specialised approach to nutrition involves reframing our goals to move beyond the aesthetic. She describes how she is re-learning how to view her body, that healthy looks different for everyone, and how a career-altering injury led her to a deeper understanding of the importance of rest and a rounded approach to fitness and nutrition. They also discuss the importance of motivation when you aren’t feeling your best, and how the key is being kind to yourself and finding different approaches to movement and nutrition - whether that's a 10-minute walk outside or a few stretches while you are watching tv. If you want to get in touch with the show, email us [email protected] Liv Little on Instagram @livslittleFollow Ixta Belfrage on Instagram @ixta.belfrageFollow Miriam Krug on instagram @miri.krugIn association with @nikewellcollective Hosted on Acast.
