Liberté Chan Instagram - I live on salads, soups, smoothies and stir-fry’s. Here is a basic salad I make 5 days a week that’s packed with protein, healthy fats, fiber, complex carbohydrates antioxidants (plus so much more!). It’s a common misconception that vegans are deficient in iron, protein and B12…but I’ve found that if you eat a wide range of plants, legumes, and mushrooms, you will likely find that you CAN have all your nutrient needs covered. I’m not pushing a vegan lifestyle on anyone, I honestly believe you should listen to your body’s needs because everyone is different and may not feel good on a solely plant-based diet 😉💚 Before you ask if I’m getting enough protein and B12…I am! I just received the results from my latest panel of bloodwork and my B12, protein, iron and folate are all on the high-end of the spectrum (but still in the healthy range). Recipe: Base: - Romaine Lettuce - Carrots - Cucumber - Cherry Tomatoes - Hemp Seeds - Broccoli Spouts For an added protein boost: add legumes or tofu Dressing: - Olive Oil - White Wine Vinegar - 1 Whole Avocado - Fresh lemon and/or lime juice - Himalayan Salt - Cumin - White Pepper - Fresh cilantro parsley Lmk if you try it! I’d love to hear what you think. #homemadedressing #homemadesaladdressing #salad #eatathome #vegan #plantbased #healthylifestyle

Liberté Chan Instagram - I cannot imagine the @ktlamorningnews without you, Sam. I’m shocked and heartbroken and I will always remember you as the man who could make me (and everyone) laugh with your wittiness and self-deprecating humor. You were the ultimate wordsmith, always professional, kind and approachable. My mother would always comment that you were the only one on the news who pronounced my name right — Liberté — emphasis on the é. LA just lost one of its brightest lights. You will be missed. 🙏💔 #ripsamrubin #samrubin #ktlamorningnews

Liberté Chan Instagram - Make sure you live before you die. In my twenties, I was obsessed with two things: school and work. My passion helped me attain my goals; I graduated early from college, got a Master’s Degree in Public Health my dream job of being a reporter in LA (and later meteorologist). I scheduled my days like a disciplined soldier: Gym, School, Work, Repeat. While I enjoyed achieving my goals, I missed out on enjoying the process and in turn, missed out on life. I missed holidays, left family trips early, and was a no show for baby showers, bridal showers, bachelorette parties and family gatherings…welcome to working in news where the schedules don’t budge and if there’s breaking news, you’re working overtime, no questions asked (the good thing was I LOVED it, and felt like my on-air gig outweighed the sacrifice… 🤷🏻‍♀️) But then…I experienced BURNOUT. Yup, my mom was right, I needed more balance in my life… Today, I no longer work in news, but I still work my a** off daily (hey, once a disciplined soldier, always a disciplined soldier). Nowadays, I get to research health and wellness products/practices and share them with all of you. I also get to help the marketing team @softubspas (my dad’s business he started back in the 80s). And, I still get to make appearances on @ktlaunscripted (it’s on Mon-Fri @ 7pm). I guess I’m sharing because if any of you are scared to make a big change in life, all I can say is if your heart and soul is pulling you away from your current situation… sometimes you have to leave something good if you want something great. 🙏 #balance #livebeforeyoudie #worklifebalance
Liberté Chan Instagram - Never stop dating your significant other; it makes the mundane moments, magical… I’ve found it’s the little things that make the biggest difference — wearing his favorite color, surprising him with love notes on post-its or getting dressed up when he least expects it - those small things make the biggest impact. #marriedlife #marryyourbestfriend #neverstopdatingyourspouse

Liberté Chan Instagram - It took me five years to open up my heart and home to a new little girl. Anyone who knows me or has followed me for some time, knows that I was head over heels for my dog, Shanti. She was everything to me.   After I put her down because of cancer, I couldn’t bear to bring another dog into my home. However, time heals and the time has come to bring another little girl into my life. Meet Bala!  While she looks like a $3000 designer dog, I adopted her for $25 at @bfas_la   Bala’s story? She was found roaming the streets somewhere in the San Fernando Valley. She was dropped off at West Valley Animal Shelter and someone from BFAS happened to be there that day, picking up some other dogs and when they saw her, they brought her to their sanctuary in West LA. I should mention BFAS is the largest no kill sanctuary in the US.   All it took was five minutes after @luismstrohmeier and I met this little nugget. He literally looked at me and said, “we have to take her.”   So we did! And she has already brought so much joy into our lives.   In case you’re wondering why we named her Bala, I thought it would be nice to stick with another Sanskrit name in honor of Shanti. As most of you probably know, Shanti means peace. In Sanskrit, Bala means “the little one” or “the child like one,” and all I can say is the name is perfect for her. She’s super spirited and playful, and even as she ages, I know her young spirit will continue to shine thru.   If you’re looking for a dog or cat, I encourage you to visit BFAS/NKLA, I’m sure you will find your best friend.   I should mention, having a dog or cat around, is really good for your mental health. Pets can help reduce stress and anxiety, boost self-confidence, and they can trigger the release of serotonin and oxytocin - chemicals that make you feel good.   Get ready to see Bala popping up a lot on this feed!     #rescuedog #bfas #adoptadog #adoptdontshop #baladog
Liberté Chan Instagram - Mother’s Day is a mixed bag of emotions for me. To all the mothers out there, Happy Mother’s Day. For those without a mom to celebrate in person, I feel you. My mom ruled the roost with an iron fist. She was the ultimate Tiger Mom, filling my childhood with back-to-back activities, expecting me to excel in everything from competitive sports, school and later, my professional career. While she expected a lot, she also provided a lot in terms of support and education so I could succeed. She loved hard, but in an unconventional way, without hugs and “I love you’s,”and instead, with food and extravagant trips and experiences around the world. She taught me that a woman can do anything she sets her mind to and that preparation is key, presentation is everything, always leave things better than the way you found them, take advantage of opportunities, not people, and you should never stop learning (she completed her Masters at USC’s Iovine and Young Academy in Integrated Design, Business and Technology while going through chemotherapy and was posthumously honored with a degree). At 5 feet tall, 95 pounds, she was the strongest woman I ever met. Her creativity in design was evident in every aspect of her life. I’m so grateful for the life lessons and opportunities she gave me and I know I’ll see her again once I cross over to the other side. 💛 you mom Your little 🐉

Liberté Chan Instagram - Arsenic is a naturally occurring substance that can be found in the air, water and soil. The toxic substance can be found in small amounts in many foods, but the crop with the highest amount of inorganic arsenic is rice. The EPA classifies inorganic arsenic as a “human carcinogen” with links to cancer, cardiovascular disease, respiratory issues, and cognitive conditions.   One quick way to lower your exposure: parboil your rice (partially boil your rice):   -       Add 1-2 cups of uncooked rice to water and boil it for five minutes. -       Remove the pot and use a strainer to discard the arsenic water. -       Return rice to the pot or add to a rice cooker and add fresh water. Enjoy!     #ricehacks #whiterice #brownrice #cookingathome #healthylifestyle #eatright #healthhack #arsenicinrice

Liberté Chan Instagram - Two words to describe this next chapter of life: Peace Protection That means I will walk away from anyone and any situation that’s not loving. And I will protect my inner peace at all costs. Btw - years ago I got शान्तिः tattooed on my neck. It’s the Sanskrit word for Shanti, which was my dog’s name and means inner peace. Clearly peace is a priority… #peace #shanti #innerpeace #innerwork #walkaway शान्तिः @konstantin_noskos

Liberté Chan Instagram - Feeling stressed or anxious? Practice some mental imagery! If the ocean is soothing to you, visualize a beach like this. Imagine yourself running on the bright white sand with the warmth of the sun washing over you. Take a dip in the water to cool off and enjoy the light breeze. This can be your safe space and you can come back here any time of day… Guided imagery is a powerful tool that can help you relax and reduce stress. Studies show that mental imagery can lower symptoms of PTSD and anxiety, and it’s often used in CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy; I’m a big fan of this type of therapy!) to change unhelpful thinking patterns. Creating these mental experiences in your mind can evoke real emotional and physiological responses, similar to those elicited by real experiences. On the flip side, imagining a stressful situation can raise your heart rate and induce feelings of anxiety. I don’t know about you, but I prefer to imagine a peaceful scenario that puts me in a state of calm and balance.

Liberté Chan Instagram - Most of you guys know me as a former meteorologist and reporter at a local tv station in Los Angeles. What you may not know is that I have always been passionate about health and wellness. It started when I was 20 years old, after my pau pau (grandmother) was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. It broke my heart to see her suffer and witnessing her struggle sent me down a path of research. After watching her cry at one of her chemo sessions, I wanted to find out what I could do to help, what caused the disease and what I could do to prevent it from happening to me in the future. Everything I read circled back to prevention. Her sickness was the catalyst for me to make a deep commitment in my personal health. It also motivated me to obtain a Master’s Degree in Public Health, become a certified yoga teacher, and it influenced me to become a certified Functional Medicine Health Coach (I’ll graduate in August, 2024!). I love functional medicine because practitioners focus on finding the root cause of disease instead of just treating the symptoms. They give their patient’s a lifestyle prescription to help them heal and many times, making these lifestyle changes can reverse disease. A coach supports their client and helps them co-create a plan so they can reach their health goal. Coaches are masters at behavior change and shifting peoples mindsets. While I am not planning on taking on any clients, I do plan to share what I learn on this account. So if you care about your mental, physical, emotional, and/or spiritual health, you’ll probably find some tips on this feed to help you feel and look your best.    And yes, you will still see a few posts on fashion and travel…two other things I love, but mainly, I hope this account becomes a resource for you that can support you on your own health and wellness journey. #healthandwellness #functionalmedicine #healthyliving #healthylifestyle #prevention

Liberté Chan Instagram - As I continue to walk down this path of personal growth and development, becoming a functional medicine health coach was something that made perfect sense. I have been obsessed with prevention and doing my best to live in a state of optimum health ever since my pau pau (maternal Chinese grandmother) was diagnosed with cancer when I was 20 years old. It pained me to watch her struggle with the disease and chemo treatment, and it also prompted me to I throw myself into research, educating myself about what I could do to prevent the disease from happening to me in the future. Everything I read pointed back to modifiable lifestyle factors; so I committed to practicing them daily. Functional medicine spoke to me because FM doctors focus on finding the root cause of disease instead of just treating your symptoms. FM practitioners look at everything from your emotional, spiritual and mental health, to your nutrition, stress, sleep, relationships and movement. Knowing that YOU have the choice to change the trajectory of your health and lower your risk of developing disease is a powerful place to be.

Liberté Chan Instagram - What to wear on-air: 3 tips to look good on camera: 1️⃣ Bright colors look best (blue always looks good, but I also love orange and red; I prefer jewel tones over pastels, but pastels work well too) 2️⃣ When choosing a pattern, make sure it’s big enough so it doesn’t moiré (herringbones, plaids, checks and pin stripes can flicker and create waves on the screen). 3️⃣ Monochromatic outfits look great as well; to me, wearing all black looks sleek and polished; plus, around that time of the month when you’re a little heavier than usual, black or navy is a great option 😉 Bottom line: it should be fitted, flattering and comfortable so you can feel confident and be yourself. 🧡 @karen_millen 💙 @dvf 💗 @trinaturk 🖤 @karen_millen #oncamerastyle #onairstyle #tvnews #weatherwardrobe #meteorologist #workwearfashion

Liberté Chan Instagram - RECIPE ⬇️ Protein-Rich Chocolate Chip Cookies 🍪 These are grain-free, gluten-free, dairy-free, but they also taste delicious! INGREDIENTS: 1 can chickpeas (15oz), drained and rinsed 1/4 cup maple syrup 3/4 cup plant milk (I used flax milk for added protein) 1/3 cup peanut butter 3/4 cup flour (I used cassava flour, but you can use almond flour or oat flour as well, which are also gluten-free) 1 tsp baking powder 1/2 cup dark vegan chocolate chips — I used @enjoylifefoods 1 tbsp coconut oil 1 tbsp monk fruit sugar METHOD: Preheat oven to 350°F Place the first 4 ingredients in a blender/ food processor and blend until smooth. Transfer to a bowl, then add the rest of the ingredients Form the batter into bite-sized balls with your hands or a small ice cream scooper and place on a baking tray. I flattened the balls out because the ingredients don’t spread like a cookie with “conventional” ingredients. Bake for 12-15 minutes. Enjoy! #chickpearecipes #chickpeacookies #healthydesserts #healthysnacks #proteincookies
Liberté Chan Instagram - *LINK to free test in stories* You have 24 character strengths. We all do. And they’re universal, across all cultures and nations. That’s according to researchers at the VIA Institute; a nonprofit that bridges the gap between science and the practice of character strengths. You, me and everyone on the planet possess signature strengths (your top 5) that are at the core of your inner being. They’re the strengths that come naturally you, the ones you don’t really have to think about when using them day-to-day. Research shows that using a signature strength in a new way can increase your happiness and even decrease depression. Studies also show that character strengths can be used to help build better relationships, boost your confidence, reduce stress and achieve life goals. You can also draw on them during tough times to help you move through the challenge with more ease. If you want to take a test to rank your character strengths, go online to: viacharacter.org and click on “Take the Free Survey” Once you take the survey (it takes about 10 minutes), you’ll get a report, ranking all 24 of your strengths. Note: The strengths at the bottom of the list are not deficits or weaknesses, they are just lesser strengths that you don’t use as often as your top, signature strengths. The good news is that you have all of these strengths inside of you — even the lesser ones(!) - so if you want, you can develop them. In case you’re interested, my top 5 strengths are: 1️⃣ Honesty 2️⃣ Curiousity 3️⃣ Appreciation of Beauty and Excellence 4️⃣ Zest 5️⃣ Spirituality Lmk if you take the survey! Did you discover more about yourself after taking it? @viastrengths #viasurvey #characterstrengths #signaturestrengths #growthanddevelopment #positivepsychology #functionalmedicinehealthtips

Liberté Chan Instagram - Summer Uniform 🩱 Note: The first time I saw water this blue was when I was 19 years old and my parents took me on a family trip to Tahiti. The color of the water was seared into my mind and I’ve carried that core memory around like a precious treasure, always seeking to visit islands surrounded by that shade of blue. Here in Turks and Caicos, I found it again. The water is crystal clear, warm and just as striking. Another note: If you’re coming from Miami, the flight is less than 1 1/2 hours. If you’re coming from LA, there’s no direct flight. It takes almost 9 hours to get here. If you’re coming from the West Coast, my advice: stop in Miami for a day or two before coming so you break up the trip 😉 #turksandcaicosbeaches #onepiecebathingsuit #bathingsuitseason #islandstyle #travelcreator #summervacation☀️

Liberté Chan Instagram - 🌈 Rainbow Rolls w/Peanut Sauce 🌈 (GF Vegan) Taste the rainbow means something completely different as an adult 😉 These rainbow rice paper rolls are so easy to make (the tofu is the only cooking required), plus they’e light and delicious, making them the perfect summer snack or light lunch. You can customize them to your liking, but here’s what I used: INGREDIENTS: - Rice Paper (5-8) - Kelp Noodles (I added blue spirulina to turn them blue) - 1 Avocado - 1 Tomato - 1 Mango - 1/2 English Cucumber - 1/4 Purple Cabbage - 14 oz Extra Firm Tofu - 1 bunch of basil and/or mint leaves TOFU MARINADE: - 1 tbsp soy sauce - 1 tsp rice vinegar - 1/2 tsp garlic powder - 1 tsp maple syrup PEANUT SAUCE - 2 tbsp peanut butter - 1 tbsp soy sauce - 1 tbsp rice vinegar - 2 tsp maple syrup - 1 tsp gochujang 🔹 Kelp Noodles: soak them in lemon baking soda to soften. Then rinse under water. Add a teaspoon of blue spirulina to turn the noodles blue 🔹 Rice Paper: soak in water for only 30-45 seconds…or it will become a sticky mess and you won’t be able to fold it around the veggies #summerrolls #rainbowrolls #ricepaper #peanutsauce #veganrolls #plantbasedrecipes

Liberté Chan Instagram - Sometimes the only thing you can change is your mindset. But many times, that’s the most powerful thing you can change because it truly changes everything. I promise, if you shift your focus on everything that’s going right, instead of everything that’s going wrong, everything will change. As many of you know, I’m studying to become a functional medicine health coach (graduating this August!). One of the many tools coaches use to help guide their clients towards optimum health is positive psychology. While traditional psychology focuses on deficits, trauma, dysfunction and psychological issues, positive psychology focuses on the positive aspects of life and human potential. It emphasizes well being, the presence of positive emotions, strengths/virtues and meaning/purpose. Earlier this year, I was struggling with some personal stuff and felt like I was drowning in a puddle. Once I shifted my focus on everything that was going right in my life, instead of focusing on everything that was going wrong…everything changed. I found my spirit, my inner strength and life just got better…I began to find joy in the smallest moments and life began to flow once again. What do you focus on? Everything that’s going wrong or everything that’s going right? #positivepsychology #positivepsychologycoaching #functionalmedicinehealthcoaching #characterstrengths #innerdialogue #selftalk #selfcare
Liberté Chan Instagram - RECIPE ⬇️ 3-Ingredient Bread Plus, it’s dairy-free, egg-free and you can make it GF! * 3 Cups Einkorn Flour (or use GF Baking Flour to make it 100% gluten-free; see notes) * 2 Tsp Instant Yeast * 1 Tsp Salt Add: 1 ½ Cups Warm Water INSTRUCTIONS 1. Combine flour, instant yeast, and salt in a bowl 2. Add 1 ½ cups warm water and mix well until the flour is combined. Once your dough is sticky, cover it and allow it to rise in a warm place for about 2-3 hours. 3. Once the dough has risen, place it on a floured surface and shape it into a round loaf - you can fold it a couple times, but do not knead it! You’ll loose the air bubbles! 4. Preheat oven to 450F. Place a baking sheet or Dutch oven inside and leave it in there for 15 minutes. 5. Place your loaf on a piece of parchment paper, then transfer it to your heated baking dish or Dutch oven. 6. Bake for 30 minutes covered in the Dutch oven (you can add some ice cubes under the parchment paper to create some steam). Then remove the top and continue baking for 12-18 minutes. If you’re using a baking sheet with a water bath; fill the tray with boiling water in the oven and place it under your bread. This will create some steam (the added moisture prevents the dough from drying out before it has time to rise. It also helps create a thin, chewy and shiny crust). Note: My husband has a gluten intolerance, so I originally made this bread with GF Baking Flour from @bobsredmill — it was good, but a little dense as the GF flour is made from rice. This time around, I tried the same recipe with Einkorn Flour, which contains gluten, however, it’s different from modern wheat since it only contains 14 chromosomes and modern wheat typically contains 42 chromosomes. Since the structure is different and the proteins are smaller, Einkorn wheat is easier to digest. Many people with non-Celiac gluten sensitivity (like my husband), can digest Einkorn wheat without any issues. However, depending on the severity of your intolerance, it may or may not be an option for you. I used Einkorn flour is by @jovialfoods 🍞 #veganbaking #eggfree #dairyfree #veganbread #plantbased

Liberté Chan Instagram - It’s the end of May and the end of Mental Health Awareness Month, so I thought I’d take a moment to share a few things I never really talk about on this feed. 1️⃣ I struggled with depression, anxiety and extremely low self esteem as a teenager which led to self-harm, panic attacks and a decades long eating disorder. 2️⃣ After being diagnosed with clinical depression and anxiety in my 20s, I was put on medication (SSRI). 3️⃣ After years of DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy, talk therapy for people who experience emotions very intensely), I weaned myself off of the medication. 4️⃣ Today, I’m still in therapy, but I have a healthy relationship with myself and food. I am also much better at regulating my emotions and practice mindfulness techniques to manage my stress and negative inner dialogue. While I don’t know the exact reason why I struggled with a mental health condition for most of my life, I do know that childhood trauma (i.e., childhood abuse, neglect, and household dysfunction) most likely contributed to it. One day I’ll share details of my experience, but for now, I’ll talk about its impact ⬇️ Childhood trauma is prevalent in our society and can negatively affect us as adults.   The ACE Study (Adverse Childhood Experiences) found a direct link between childhood trauma and adult onset of chronic disease and other negative health issues.   The study found that nearly two thirds of U.S. adults reported at least one ACE, and approximately 1 in 6 U.S. adults reported 4 ACEs.   Females and several racial and ethnic minority groups were at greater risk for experiencing 4 ACEs, which can lead to a much higher risk of: physical health issues, depression, substance abuse, dementia and Alzheimer’s.   People with unresolved childhood trauma tend to have an unregulated sympathetic nervous system; they are quicker to activate and get into a state of fight or flight. Triggers can be anything from a word, an image or even a smell.   The good news is, with sufficient support, it is possible to heal from trauma and manage a mental health condition. @namicommunicate @nimhgov Study: https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/72/wr/mm7226a2.htm #mentalhealth

Liberté Chan Instagram - It’s the end of May and the end of Mental Health Awareness Month, so I thought I’d take a moment to share a few things I never really talk about on this feed. 1️⃣ I struggled with depression, anxiety and extremely low self esteem as a teenager which led to self-harm, panic attacks and a decades long eating disorder. 2️⃣ After being diagnosed with clinical depression and anxiety in my 20s, I was put on medication (SSRI). 3️⃣ After years of DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy, talk therapy for people who experience emotions very intensely), I weaned myself off of the medication. 4️⃣ Today, I’m still in therapy, but I have a healthy relationship with myself and food.

Liberté Chan Instagram - RECIPE ⬇️ High Protein Chocolate Pudding - 14oz silken tofu - 10 dates - 1/2 cup cocoa powder - 1 cup coconut milk - 1/2 avocado (trust me, you won’t taste it, but it makes it even more creamy) Remember those chocolate pudding cups you used to eat as a kid? Yeah, me too. I loved finding them in my lunchbox as a tiny tot, but nowadays, I would never eat the highly processed sweet snack that’s full of dairy and cane sugar. However, since my sweet tooth hasn’t gone away, I blended up a homemade version with healthier ingredients that still curbs my chocolate craving and gives me a boost of protein thanks to the tofu. If you’re new to the tofu game, welcome! It’s an incredibly versatile and tasty plant based protein source. Being that I’m half Chinese, it was a staple at our house as it’s a common ingredient in Chinese cooking - used in both savory and sweet dishes. My favorite dessert as a kid was something called, Tau Foo Fah, which is soybean pudding…it’s silken tofu in sweet soup with a touch of ginger. If you try making this chocolate pudding, tag me and lmk how it goes! #soybeanpudding #chocolatepudding #veganpudding #veganrecipe #dairyfreedessert #veganchocolatemousse #veganchocolatepudding
Liberté Chan Instagram - I ❤️ NY but here are 3 things I REALLY loved this time around: 📍 @elevenmadisonpark This is a 3-star Michelin restaurant that’s vegan, but trust me, you will not miss the meat! My husband is not vegan and after dinner, he said, “I can’t wait to come back!” We loved all of the plant-based fare and also loved how chef Daniel Humm stopped by each table to say hello. And, the granola they gift you at the end of the meal is delish 🌱 📍 Cabaret @kitkatclubnyc with Eddie Redmayne The Academy and Tony award winner is amazing as the emcee! I loved the revival of this classic. The theater was redesigned so it feels almost like an immersive experience. Sidenote - we were two minutes late (my fault 🙊), so we stood in the lobby watching the monitor for the first 15 minutes before sitting down inside and as we stood there, Redmayne HIMSELF came up to us and said hello! He remained in character and said something funny about being late and commented on our outfits before running backstage. Sorry, but not sorry we were late @luismstrohmeier 😉 📍 @baccarathotels This hotel is so beautiful and even if you don’t stay here, grab a drink at the bar. The decor is stunning! 🗽🇺🇸🫶 #nyc #kitkatclub #manhattan #thingstodoinnyc #visitnyc

Liberté Chan - 41K Likes - I live on salads, soups, smoothies and stir-fry’s. Here is a basic salad I make 5 days a week that’s packed with protein, healthy fats, fiber, complex carbohydrates antioxidants (plus so much more!). It’s a common misconception that vegans are deficient in iron, protein and B12…but I’ve found that if you eat a wide range of plants, legumes, and mushrooms, you will likely find that you CAN have all your nutrient needs covered. I’m not pushing a vegan lifestyle on anyone, I honestly believe you should listen to your body’s needs because everyone is different and may not feel good on a solely plant-based diet 😉💚 Before you ask if I’m getting enough protein and B12…I am! I just received the results from my latest panel of bloodwork and my B12, protein, iron and folate are all on the high-end of the spectrum (but still in the healthy range). Recipe: Base: - Romaine Lettuce - Carrots - Cucumber - Cherry Tomatoes - Hemp Seeds - Broccoli Spouts For an added protein boost: add legumes or tofu Dressing: - Olive Oil - White Wine Vinegar - 1 Whole Avocado - Fresh lemon and/or lime juice - Himalayan Salt - Cumin - White Pepper - Fresh cilantro parsley Lmk if you try it! I’d love to hear what you think. #homemadedressing #homemadesaladdressing #salad #eatathome #vegan #plantbased #healthylifestyle

My passion helped me attain my goals; I graduated early from college, got a Master’s Degree in Public Health my dream job of being a reporter in LA (and later meteorologist). I scheduled my days like a disciplined soldier: Gym, School, Work, Repeat. While I enjoyed achieving my goals, I missed out on enjoying the process and in turn, missed out on life. I missed holidays, left family trips early, and was a no show for baby showers, bridal showers, bachelorette parties and family gatherings…welcome to working in news where the schedules don’t budge and if there’s breaking news, you’re working overtime, no questions asked (the good thing was I LOVED it, and felt like my on-air gig outweighed the sacrifice… 🤷🏻‍♀️) But then…I experienced BURNOUT. Yup, my mom was right, I needed more balance in my life… Today, I no longer work in news, but I still work my a** off daily (hey, once a disciplined soldier, always a disciplined soldier). Nowadays, I get to research health and wellness products/practices and share them with all of you. I also get to help the marketing team @softubspas (my dad’s business he started back in the 80s). And, I still get to make appearances on @ktlaunscripted (it’s on Mon-Fri @ 7pm). I guess I’m sharing because if any of you are scared to make a big change in life, all I can say is if your heart and soul is pulling you away from your current situation… sometimes you have to leave something good if you want something great. 🙏 #balance #livebeforeyoudie #worklifebalance

Likes : 4223Liberté Chan - 3.9K Likes - It took me five years to open up my heart and home to a new little girl. Anyone who knows me or has followed me for some time, knows that I was head over heels for my dog, Shanti. She was everything to me.   After I put her down because of cancer, I couldn’t bear to bring another dog into my home. However, time heals and the time has come to bring another little girl into my life. Meet Bala!  While she looks like a $3000 designer dog, I adopted her for $25 at @bfas_la   Bala’s story? She was found roaming the streets somewhere in the San Fernando Valley. She was dropped off at West Valley Animal Shelter and someone from BFAS happened to be there that day, picking up some other dogs and when they saw her, they brought her to their sanctuary in West LA. I should mention BFAS is the largest no kill sanctuary in the US.   All it took was five minutes after @luismstrohmeier and I met this little nugget. He literally looked at me and said, “we have to take her.”   So we did! And she has already brought so much joy into our lives.   In case you’re wondering why we named her Bala, I thought it would be nice to stick with another Sanskrit name in honor of Shanti. As most of you probably know, Shanti means peace. In Sanskrit, Bala means “the little one” or “the child like one,” and all I can say is the name is perfect for her. She’s super spirited and playful, and even as she ages, I know her young spirit will continue to shine thru.   If you’re looking for a dog or cat, I encourage you to visit BFAS/NKLA, I’m sure you will find your best friend.   I should mention, having a dog or cat around, is really good for your mental health. Pets can help reduce stress and anxiety, boost self-confidence, and they can trigger the release of serotonin and oxytocin - chemicals that make you feel good.   Get ready to see Bala popping up a lot on this feed!     #rescuedog #bfas #adoptadog #adoptdontshop #baladog

My mom ruled the roost with an iron fist. She was the ultimate Tiger Mom, filling my childhood with back-to-back activities, expecting me to excel in everything from competitive sports, school and later, my professional career. While she expected a lot, she also provided a lot in terms of support and education so I could succeed. She loved hard, but in an unconventional way, without hugs and “I love you’s,”and instead, with food and extravagant trips and experiences around the world. She taught me that a woman can do anything she sets her mind to and that preparation is key, presentation is everything, always leave things better than the way you found them, take advantage of opportunities, not people, and you should never stop learning (she completed her Masters at USC’s Iovine and Young Academy in Integrated Design, Business and Technology while going through chemotherapy and was posthumously honored with a degree). At 5 feet tall, 95 pounds, she was the strongest woman I ever met. Her creativity in design was evident in every aspect of her life. I’m so grateful for the life lessons and opportunities she gave me and I know I’ll see her again once I cross over to the other side. 💛 you mom Your little 🐉

The toxic substance can be found in small amounts in many foods, but the crop with the highest amount of inorganic arsenic is rice. The EPA classifies inorganic arsenic as a “human carcinogen” with links to cancer, cardiovascular disease, respiratory issues, and cognitive conditions.   One quick way to lower your exposure: parboil your rice (partially boil your rice):   -       Add 1-2 cups of uncooked rice to water and boil it for five minutes. -       Remove the pot and use a strainer to discard the arsenic water. -       Return rice to the pot or add to a rice cooker and add fresh water.

Imagine yourself running on the bright white sand with the warmth of the sun washing over you. Take a dip in the water to cool off and enjoy the light breeze. This can be your safe space and you can come back here any time of day… Guided imagery is a powerful tool that can help you relax and reduce stress. Studies show that mental imagery can lower symptoms of PTSD and anxiety, and it’s often used in CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy; I’m a big fan of this type of therapy!) to change unhelpful thinking patterns. Creating these mental experiences in your mind can evoke real emotional and physiological responses, similar to those elicited by real experiences. On the flip side, imagining a stressful situation can raise your heart rate and induce feelings of anxiety. I don’t know about you, but I prefer to imagine a peaceful scenario that puts me in a state of calm and balance.

What you may not know is that I have always been passionate about health and wellness. It started when I was 20 years old, after my pau pau (grandmother) was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. It broke my heart to see her suffer and witnessing her struggle sent me down a path of research. After watching her cry at one of her chemo sessions, I wanted to find out what I could do to help, what caused the disease and what I could do to prevent it from happening to me in the future. Everything I read circled back to prevention. Her sickness was the catalyst for me to make a deep commitment in my personal health. It also motivated me to obtain a Master’s Degree in Public Health, become a certified yoga teacher, and it influenced me to become a certified Functional Medicine Health Coach (I’ll graduate in August, 2024!). I love functional medicine because practitioners focus on finding the root cause of disease instead of just treating the symptoms. They give their patient’s a lifestyle prescription to help them heal and many times, making these lifestyle changes can reverse disease. A coach supports their client and helps them co-create a plan so they can reach their health goal. Coaches are masters at behavior change and shifting peoples mindsets. While I am not planning on taking on any clients, I do plan to share what I learn on this account. So if you care about your mental, physical, emotional, and/or spiritual health, you’ll probably find some tips on this feed to help you feel and look your best.    And yes, you will still see a few posts on fashion and travel…two other things I love, but mainly, I hope this account becomes a resource for you that can support you on your own health and wellness journey. #healthandwellness #functionalmedicine #healthyliving #healthylifestyle #prevention

I have been obsessed with prevention and doing my best to live in a state of optimum health ever since my pau pau (maternal Chinese grandmother) was diagnosed with cancer when I was 20 years old. It pained me to watch her struggle with the disease and chemo treatment, and it also prompted me to I throw myself into research, educating myself about what I could do to prevent the disease from happening to me in the future. Everything I read pointed back to modifiable lifestyle factors; so I committed to practicing them daily. Functional medicine spoke to me because FM doctors focus on finding the root cause of disease instead of just treating your symptoms. FM practitioners look at everything from your emotional, spiritual and mental health, to your nutrition, stress, sleep, relationships and movement. Knowing that YOU have the choice to change the trajectory of your health and lower your risk of developing disease is a powerful place to be.

Transfer to a bowl, then add the rest of the ingredients Form the batter into bite-sized balls with your hands or a small ice cream scooper and place on a baking tray. I flattened the balls out because the ingredients don’t spread like a cookie with “conventional” ingredients. Bake for 12-15 minutes.

That’s according to researchers at the VIA Institute; a nonprofit that bridges the gap between science and the practice of character strengths. You, me and everyone on the planet possess signature strengths (your top 5) that are at the core of your inner being. They’re the strengths that come naturally you, the ones you don’t really have to think about when using them day-to-day. Research shows that using a signature strength in a new way can increase your happiness and even decrease depression. Studies also show that character strengths can be used to help build better relationships, boost your confidence, reduce stress and achieve life goals. You can also draw on them during tough times to help you move through the challenge with more ease. If you want to take a test to rank your character strengths, go online to: viacharacter.org and click on “Take the Free Survey” Once you take the survey (it takes about 10 minutes), you’ll get a report, ranking all 24 of your strengths. Note: The strengths at the bottom of the list are not deficits or weaknesses, they are just lesser strengths that you don’t use as often as your top, signature strengths. The good news is that you have all of these strengths inside of you — even the lesser ones(!) - so if you want, you can develop them. In case you’re interested, my top 5 strengths are: 1️⃣ Honesty 2️⃣ Curiousity 3️⃣ Appreciation of Beauty and Excellence 4️⃣ Zest 5️⃣ Spirituality Lmk if you take the survey! Did you discover more about yourself after taking it? @viastrengths #viasurvey #characterstrengths #signaturestrengths #growthanddevelopment #positivepsychology #functionalmedicinehealthtips

They’re the strengths that come naturally you, the ones you don’t really have to think about when using them day-to-day. Research shows that using a signature strength in a new way can increase your happiness and even decrease depression. Studies also show that character strengths can be used to help build better relationships, boost your confidence, reduce stress and achieve life goals. You can also draw on them during tough times to help you move through the challenge with more ease. If you want to take a test to rank your character strengths, go online to: viacharacter.org and click on “Take the Free Survey” Once you take the survey (it takes about 10 minutes), you’ll get a report, ranking all 24 of your strengths. Note: The strengths at the bottom of the list are not deficits or weaknesses, they are just lesser strengths that you don’t use as often as your top, signature strengths. The good news is that you have all of these strengths inside of you — even the lesser ones(!) – so if you want, you can develop them. In case you’re interested, my top 5 strengths are: 1️⃣ Honesty 2️⃣ Curiousity 3️⃣ Appreciation of Beauty and Excellence 4️⃣ Zest 5️⃣ Spirituality Lmk if you take the survey! Did you discover more about yourself after taking it? @viastrengths #viasurvey #characterstrengths #signaturestrengths #growthanddevelopment #positivepsychology #functionalmedicinehealthtips

The color of the water was seared into my mind and I’ve carried that core memory around like a precious treasure, always seeking to visit islands surrounded by that shade of blue. Here in Turks and Caicos, I found it again. The water is crystal clear, warm and just as striking. Another note: If you’re coming from Miami, the flight is less than 1 1/2 hours. If you’re coming from LA, there’s no direct flight. It takes almost 9 hours to get here. If you’re coming from the West Coast, my advice: stop in Miami for a day or two before coming so you break up the trip 😉 #turksandcaicosbeaches #onepiecebathingsuit #bathingsuitseason #islandstyle #travelcreator #summervacation☀️

I promise, if you shift your focus on everything that’s going right, instead of everything that’s going wrong, everything will change. As many of you know, I’m studying to become a functional medicine health coach (graduating this August!). One of the many tools coaches use to help guide their clients towards optimum health is positive psychology. While traditional psychology focuses on deficits, trauma, dysfunction and psychological issues, positive psychology focuses on the positive aspects of life and human potential. It emphasizes well being, the presence of positive emotions, strengths/virtues and meaning/purpose. Earlier this year, I was struggling with some personal stuff and felt like I was drowning in a puddle. Once I shifted my focus on everything that was going right in my life, instead of focusing on everything that was going wrong…everything changed. I found my spirit, my inner strength and life just got better…I began to find joy in the smallest moments and life began to flow once again. What do you focus on? Everything that’s going wrong or everything that’s going right? #positivepsychology #positivepsychologycoaching #functionalmedicinehealthcoaching #characterstrengths #innerdialogue #selftalk #selfcare

Combine flour, instant yeast, and salt in a bowl 2. Add 1 ½ cups warm water and mix well until the flour is combined. Once your dough is sticky, cover it and allow it to rise in a warm place for about 2-3 hours. 3. Once the dough has risen, place it on a floured surface and shape it into a round loaf - you can fold it a couple times, but do not knead it! You’ll loose the air bubbles! 4. Preheat oven to 450F. Place a baking sheet or Dutch oven inside and leave it in there for 15 minutes. 5. Place your loaf on a piece of parchment paper, then transfer it to your heated baking dish or Dutch oven. 6. Bake for 30 minutes covered in the Dutch oven (you can add some ice cubes under the parchment paper to create some steam). Then remove the top and continue baking for 12-18 minutes. If you’re using a baking sheet with a water bath; fill the tray with boiling water in the oven and place it under your bread. This will create some steam (the added moisture prevents the dough from drying out before it has time to rise. It also helps create a thin, chewy and shiny crust). Note: My husband has a gluten intolerance, so I originally made this bread with GF Baking Flour from @bobsredmill — it was good, but a little dense as the GF flour is made from rice. This time around, I tried the same recipe with Einkorn Flour, which contains gluten, however, it’s different from modern wheat since it only contains 14 chromosomes and modern wheat typically contains 42 chromosomes. Since the structure is different and the proteins are smaller, Einkorn wheat is easier to digest. Many people with non-Celiac gluten sensitivity (like my husband), can digest Einkorn wheat without any issues. However, depending on the severity of your intolerance, it may or may not be an option for you. I used Einkorn flour is by @jovialfoods 🍞 #veganbaking #eggfree #dairyfree #veganbread #plantbased

Place a baking sheet or Dutch oven inside and leave it in there for 15 minutes. 5. Place your loaf on a piece of parchment paper, then transfer it to your heated baking dish or Dutch oven. 6. Bake for 30 minutes covered in the Dutch oven (you can add some ice cubes under the parchment paper to create some steam). Then remove the top and continue baking for 12-18 minutes. If you’re using a baking sheet with a water bath; fill the tray with boiling water in the oven and place it under your bread. This will create some steam (the added moisture prevents the dough from drying out before it has time to rise. It also helps create a thin, chewy and shiny crust). Note: My husband has a gluten intolerance, so I originally made this bread with GF Baking Flour from @bobsredmill — it was good, but a little dense as the GF flour is made from rice. This time around, I tried the same recipe with Einkorn Flour, which contains gluten, however, it’s different from modern wheat since it only contains 14 chromosomes and modern wheat typically contains 42 chromosomes. Since the structure is different and the proteins are smaller, Einkorn wheat is easier to digest. Many people with non-Celiac gluten sensitivity (like my husband), can digest Einkorn wheat without any issues. However, depending on the severity of your intolerance, it may or may not be an option for you. I used Einkorn flour is by @jovialfoods 🍞 #veganbaking #eggfree #dairyfree #veganbread #plantbased

As most of you know, I make a batch of juice every week. It’s cost-saving, super easy with a good juicer and gives you a concentrated boost of nutrients in a cute little shot. This week, I kept it simple and used three of my favorite anti-inflammatory foods: 🍋 Lemon (juicing lemons offers a burst of vitamin C, boosts your immune system, aids digestion, and helps detoxify your body 🫚Ginger (Ginger contains gingerol, a compound known for its medicinal properties; Ginger helps to soothe the digestive tract and reduce nausea) 🍍Pineapple (Certain anti-inflammatory ingredients have natural pain-relieving properties.

Likes : 3Liberté Chan - 3 Likes - It’s the end of May and the end of Mental Health Awareness Month, so I thought I’d take a moment to share a few things I never really talk about on this feed. 1️⃣ I struggled with depression, anxiety and extremely low self esteem as a teenager which led to self-harm, panic attacks and a decades long eating disorder. 2️⃣ After being diagnosed with clinical depression and anxiety in my 20s, I was put on medication (SSRI). 3️⃣ After years of DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy, talk therapy for people who experience emotions very intensely), I weaned myself off of the medication. 4️⃣ Today, I’m still in therapy, but I have a healthy relationship with myself and food. I am also much better at regulating my emotions and practice mindfulness techniques to manage my stress and negative inner dialogue. While I don’t know the exact reason why I struggled with a mental health condition for most of my life, I do know that childhood trauma (i.e., childhood abuse, neglect, and household dysfunction) most likely contributed to it. One day I’ll share details of my experience, but for now, I’ll talk about its impact ⬇️ Childhood trauma is prevalent in our society and can negatively affect us as adults.   The ACE Study (Adverse Childhood Experiences) found a direct link between childhood trauma and adult onset of chronic disease and other negative health issues.   The study found that nearly two thirds of U.S. adults reported at least one ACE, and approximately 1 in 6 U.S. adults reported 4 ACEs.   Females and several racial and ethnic minority groups were at greater risk for experiencing 4 ACEs, which can lead to a much higher risk of: physical health issues, depression, substance abuse, dementia and Alzheimer’s.   People with unresolved childhood trauma tend to have an unregulated sympathetic nervous system; they are quicker to activate and get into a state of fight or flight. Triggers can be anything from a word, an image or even a smell.   The good news is, with sufficient support, it is possible to heal from trauma and manage a mental health condition. @namicommunicate @nimhgov Study: https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/72/wr/mm7226a2.htm #mentalhealth

Caption : It’s the end of May and the end of Mental Health Awareness Month, so I thought I’d take a moment to share a few things I never really talk about on this feed. 1️⃣ I struggled with depression, anxiety and extremely low self esteem as a teenager which led to self-harm, panic attacks and a decades long eating disorder. 2️⃣ After being diagnosed with clinical depression and anxiety in my 20s, I was put on medication (SSRI). 3️⃣ After years of DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy, talk therapy for people who experience emotions very intensely), I weaned myself off of the medication. 4️⃣ Today, I’m still in therapy, but I have a healthy relationship with myself and food.

Yeah, me too. I loved finding them in my lunchbox as a tiny tot, but nowadays, I would never eat the highly processed sweet snack that’s full of dairy and cane sugar. However, since my sweet tooth hasn’t gone away, I blended up a homemade version with healthier ingredients that still curbs my chocolate craving and gives me a boost of protein thanks to the tofu. If you’re new to the tofu game, welcome! It’s an incredibly versatile and tasty plant based protein source. Being that I’m half Chinese, it was a staple at our house as it’s a common ingredient in Chinese cooking - used in both savory and sweet dishes. My favorite dessert as a kid was something called, Tau Foo Fah, which is soybean pudding…it’s silken tofu in sweet soup with a touch of ginger. If you try making this chocolate pudding, tag me and lmk how it goes! #soybeanpudding #chocolatepudding #veganpudding #veganrecipe #dairyfreedessert #veganchocolatemousse #veganchocolatepudding

My husband is not vegan and after dinner, he said, “I can’t wait to come back!” We loved all of the plant-based fare and also loved how chef Daniel Humm stopped by each table to say hello. And, the granola they gift you at the end of the meal is delish 🌱 📍 Cabaret @kitkatclubnyc with Eddie Redmayne The Academy and Tony award winner is amazing as the emcee! I loved the revival of this classic. The theater was redesigned so it feels almost like an immersive experience. Sidenote - we were two minutes late (my fault 🙊), so we stood in the lobby watching the monitor for the first 15 minutes before sitting down inside and as we stood there, Redmayne HIMSELF came up to us and said hello! He remained in character and said something funny about being late and commented on our outfits before running backstage. Sorry, but not sorry we were late @luismstrohmeier 😉 📍 @baccarathotels This hotel is so beautiful and even if you don’t stay here, grab a drink at the bar. The decor is stunning! 🗽🇺🇸🫶 #nyc #kitkatclub #manhattan #thingstodoinnyc #visitnyc
