Who is #notinmybelly?!

Hey there! My name is Cat Santos and I am based in Sydney, Australia. I work as a professional dancer & teacher and because of the nature of my work, I spent majority of my life working on my body and what it looked and felt like on the outside. Later in age I found myself not feeling 100%, it took my skin breaking out for me to finally explore & learn about my body on the INSIDE and how it affects me not only physically but mentally & emotionally as well. This passion led me to discover all things to do with gut-health, overall wellbeing and places & resources that support this life-style. I've created this page to share all the mind-boggling information that I keep learning about with you! Falling in love with my body on a deeper level changed my life, I hope you find a way to fall in love with yours too. Love, Cat.

The last 2 years of my life I have been so absorbed in learning more about our purpose and the body we’ve been given, and not just gut-health stuff, but so many other topics and subjects. ✨ I am so grateful for the amazing mentors I have had who have expanded my perception of the physical body, its importance and what it can actually do. And whilst I am so passionate about my dance career I have noticed that what is motivating me so much more is the desire to help people who feel out of touch with their bodies and help them find the connection with themselves again. If you feel a little lost and “out of your body” or you find yourself becoming aware that you don’t have a good relationship with it, then I’m here to tell you that you’re not alone! And I suggest the first thing you do is be a little more “human” and do some really nice human things... like taking a walk, or having a bath, or painting, or drawing, or meditating, or calling a friend, or anything that makes you feel one with yourself again. ✨💕 almost everything works again after you disconnect it for a little bit! ... remember - don’t get so busy thinking, that you forget how to feel!
When was the last time you did something for yourself? ✨ Something that has nothing to do with your career, your responsibilities, your duties. But just because you simply “wanted to just do it” ? Guilt likes to show up in these moments and convince us that we must be constantly doing something that is helping us achieve and keep pushing forward in life and yeah sure that is definitely an extremely important ethic to have... ...but you cannot possibly fill anyone else’s cup if yours is empty. 🤷🏻‍♀️ So this weekend, find some time alone, or with someone you love or with a group of special people and just do whatever fills your soul up and leaves you feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. And tell good ol’ guilt to just back off, ain’t no body got time for that. 👍🏼 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Grilled wild caught barramundi with brown rice, coleslaw & hot chips. ... don’t mind if I do. ✨
When inspiration strikes ✨ 〰️ Hellllooo, these are crispy cauliflower bites that I just made in the kitchen with some vegan mayo mixed with some Tabasco sauce for a bit of kick! They were quick to make and so dammmmmn good 🤤
Once upon a time there was a man woke up one morning with extreme vertigo. The pain made him so incredibly sick and unable to function as his usual self. Many tried to treat, but unfortunately - it kept coming back despite all the effort. The man decided to see someone else, and this someone else asked him “what do you do every day?” To which the man replied “I work as a bank teller” It was after much conversation that it came to light that this man was slightly deaf in his left ear. “Yes, I struggle to hear out of my left, so when customers speak to me I push my right ear towards the space between the bank dividers so that I can hear them”. It was then obvious to this someone else that the issue then lay in the clear un-balance in the neck tissue, where he continuously stretched his right side, and shortened his left. You see - no matter how many people tried to “fix” him, it was what this man practiced - every day - that kept the same trouble coming back. No matter how much help we seek, or guidance we receive it is ultimately up to US and what we choose to do EVERY DAY that truly makes the impact. There are distances only we must travel on our own, and our challenge is to learn how to do that. The power to “changing your life” is as simple as changing your every day. ✨
I know a lot of people think that I only eat healthy... which is kinda true 🤭😂! But here’s the thing - this insanely delicious pizza that I’ve made here IS healthy for me. Sure... I don’t eat it everyday (too much of ANYTHING isn’t good for you!) but once in a while means this bad boy isn’t harmful to me. The reason it is so is because when I do choose to have it I use a sweet potato wrap as a base and top it with a vegan mozzarella cheese. I’ve eliminated Gluten and Dairy because those are the things that are un-healthy for ME!However for you it could be the acidity in the garlic and tomato paste that could make this “un-healthy” for you or if you were allergic to mushrooms, well that would make this “un-healthy” too (obviously) right? Another example I love to use is Oats. Oats are considered an extremely healthy breakfast meal because of the slow energy release carbohydrates, but for someone who is gluten-intolerant this would be one of the worst things to eat for breakfast!! Pretty much what I am trying to say is that 〰️ A nutritious “healthy” meal can only be determined but what YOUR body needs and the fuel IT needs. Oh and yes... feed your soul too!!! Cause that bad boy has got some cravings we best not ignore!!! 🍕🍕🍕
