Wanting to try a plant-based approach to eating while working the night shift? One of the easiest ways is to cook dishes that are naturally plant-based. 🥙🥬

Instead of trying to "vegan-ify" a recipe that includes a lot of meat and cheese, look for recipes that are naturally plant-based—and don’t require you to spend hours trying to make a cheese sauce out of cashews. Some ideas could include pasta, chilli, nourish bowls, veggie stir fry with rice or rice noodles, and burrito bowls.

Staying Healthy on the Night Shift

The inspiration behind Night Shift Wellness started 10+ years ago when I worked rotating shift work at a hospital. Over the following years, a few things happened.

First, I experimented with blogging for a while and wrote a single post on how to eat healthily while working nights. I was blown away by the response to it. I realized there was a real interest in how to thrive on shift work.

Then more recently, I watched a neighbour fail at night shift work within four days. He left a job that he hated and tried to transition to a “better” job – on nights. He quit by the end of the week because he couldn’t sort out his sleep schedule. I knew he might have been able to adapt and thrive if he’d just had some common sense help from other shift workers. It was a small thing that gave me a big nudge to get more serious about developing Night Shift Wellness.

Finally, I found myself once again on night shift last year. My interest in how to thrive on shift work took on new urgency – how to sleep better, eat healthily and stay fit while working nights. I wanted to create a place for shift workers to gather information and learn from one another.

So my goal with all of this is to help shift workers fight back against the ill effects of night shift work by arming themselves with sensible solutions.⁠ And that’s how I ended up here – creating a blog (nightshiftwellness.com), posting on here and IG, publishing my first Amazon book, and interviewing other amazing night shift warriors.

Please feel free to leave comments, ask questions and share your own shift work experiences. We can all learn from each other.
