Lesson Overview

2.8 – Making Meals When You Have Low Energy or Motivation: On tough days, cooking can feel like a mountain, but planning small helps you climb. Start with easy wins—grab pre-cut produce or frozen meals that only need reheating. Set realistic goals, like assembling a sandwich instead of preparing a full dinner. Keep “energy-saving” recipes ready for these moments, such as soups, overnight oats, or wraps. Listening to music or setting a timer can make cooking more engaging. Ask for help from a friend or family member if you can. Remember that feeding yourself is not just survival; it’s self-respect. Every small effort counts toward stability and emotional balance. Building backup meal plans helps you push through fatigue while still caring for your body with kindness.
