52. Holiday Cooking Without the ache: Ergonomic Tips for Big Meal Prep

Big holiday meals shouldn’t mean a sore back, stiff shoulders, or aching wrists. In this episode, Amanda shares her go-to ergonomic strategies to help you cook smarter, not harder — so you can actually enjoy the holidays you’re working so hard to create.

 

Learn how to:

🍽️ Plan and prep large meals in stages to avoid fatigue

🪑 Set up your workstation for maximum comfort (yes, you can sit!)

🧑‍🍳 Use anti-fatigue mats and surface height hacks for neutral posture

💪 Safely lift heavy dishes and avoid back strain

🎄 Keep your cooking space efficient and body-friendly

 

Whether you’re hosting Thanksgiving or baking cookies with your kids, these small tweaks will make a big difference in how your body feels at the end of the day.

 

🤍 Because you deserve to feel good in the body you mother—and cook—in.

Hope this episode is enlightening and helps you find joy and reduce pain.
