Time to Enjoy :)

An important part of health and well-being is having balance, so as well as training and even resting is the importance of taking time to enjoy.

What this means for each of us is different but every now and then, or when we can its important to treat ourselves and enjoy.

Enjoy that chocolate egg over Christmas, that time out with friends and family and that well-earnt holiday.

With the right balance of rest work and play, our heath and well being can also be at its best.

To your healthiest and best always πŸ™πŸ’› 😊

Maintain Faith on your Fitness Journey

On your fitness journey there will be many ups and downs, so how do you maintain faith through it all?

The following ways are the top 3 I recommend;

  1. Daily reminders– keeping daily reminders, such as regular habits, journalling and affirmations, can all help to keep your goals in mind combined with positive association.
  2. Positive Feedback – by keeping a journal you can also keep a record of your journey and all the good things on the way, there’s always much more along the journey.
  3. Variation – if you find yourself getting bored, then varying your workouts and approach can be the best way to overcome this.

For more information on how you can maintain faith on your fitness journey and for further guidance and support, please get in touch via the form below.

5 Ways to Improve your Energy Levels

Fatigue can be a common problem, however it doesn’t have to be one that we just put up with. As with many problems, there are also many solutions.

Here are just 5 ways you can start to improve your energy levels.

  1. Exercise more; first and foremost would be to exercise more, even just 20 mins of light exercise a day can make a big difference and it comes highly recommended.
  2. Eat healthy meals at regular intervals, eating healthily we all know is important to do, yet to eat at regular intervals, so that your body knows when food is coming can make an even bigger difference. Try to stick to the same meal times each day and to not skip meals. Even if you are doing intermittent fasting you can try applying this rule of having set times.
  3. Drink plenty of water, all drinks other than alcohol and caffienated drinks can help us to stay hydrated. However if you can it drink plenty of water daily, you will find this to be much better as it rules out any sugar intake, which can send your energy levels up and down. Pure water is always best.
  4. Spend time in nature, being in nature brings us back to our natural healthy balanced state, reducing any stress or anxiety and helping us to reset. Always give this a try when you can, for a natural energy boost.
  5. Chi Gung – a great and more unique way to improve energy levels is with Chi Gung, which literally means energy work. Using gentle movements it helps our natural energy to circulate and improves circulation and joint pain as well as many more health benefits.

If you have been struggling with energy levels give some of these simple yet effective methods a try.

For more advice and information on Chi Gung classes, please send me a message below and I will get back to you as soon as possible.

Yoga Outdoors

The benefits of Yoga are numerous, however with the added benefit of being outdoors the positive results multiply even further.

With Yoga literally meaning to connect, being outdoors for practice allows us to truly tune in to nature and ourselves, allowing for a deeper calm and connection.

The sights and sound of nature can also help us to relax, therefore helping us to breath deeper and find posture easier to get in to deepen also.

It can also help to build our vitamin D supply, leading to more health &happiness. In addition it can help to improve your confidence and subsequent connection to fellow Yoga practitioners.

For more info on outdoor Yoga sessions and how they can help you, please get in touch via the form below.

Body, Mind & Heart

In training, we like to take a holistic approach, that is for body mind & heart/soul. This is because we are much more than just a body and in training, all aspects of ourselves are involved and intertwined.

As we train we not only improve our physical health but also that of our mind and heart. We continually grow & evolve and learn new ways of connecting and expressing ourselves in the most complete way.

This is the most satisfying journey where you are able to meet all of your needs and not just those of physical health and fitness. All aspects of yourself are equally important and meeting all of these enables you to be at your best and connect with all in the best way that is true to you.

For more information on our training and programmes, please drop me a message below.

Getting Started

Happy New Year to you all and wishing you all a great 2024!

Most of us at this time of year will be eagerly focused on our new year resolutions and goals.

This a great time for starting something new or restarting after the often indulgent Christmas and New Year period.

So what is the best way in getting started with your goals and ensuring you stay focused on what it is you want to achieve.

As we all may know having enthusiasm for something is a big part of getting started and keeping it going.

This is where having the mindset of getting started comes in to play and can be each day you are focused on this.

Always taking that approach of something new with the excitement and enthusiasm it brings, will help to keep that energy alive for as long as you need or want it to.

Ensuring you are maintaining the enjoyment and pace along the way.

Keep getting started each and every day with joy and love in all you do πŸ™πŸ’›πŸ’«

To Your Best Year Yet,

Miranda

Positive Focus

Becoming aware of our mindstates and taking charge of our focus, is a very important and helpful practice for our overall wellbeing.

Once we are our more aware of our mindstate and then able to consciously choose thought processes, we can direct our mind to a positive focus.

Our inner world can shape our outer world so once we have a more positive focus, it becomes far easier to have a more positive lifestyle.

Our choices are vital in directing where we want to go and adapting accordingly, and with a positive focus we will contue to make more positive choices and outcomes.

Leading to positive habits that stay. It all begins within.

Through the practice of deep looking, we can identify the positive seeds we want to water everyday. Even a few days of this can bring transformation. πŸ™

– Thick Nhat Hahn

Start today, where you are, with what you have. Set aside some time to meditate daily and set positive intentions. Become more in charge of your mind and focus & you will be sure to see and feel the difference. πŸ™πŸ’›

To your healthiest and happiest πŸ™

Towards Dreams

“Before a dream is realized, the soul of the world tests everything that was learned along the way.

It does this not because it is evil, but so that we can, in addition to realizing our dreams, master the lessons we’ve learned as we’ve moved toward that dream.

That’s the point at which most people give up. It’s the point at which, as we say in the language of the desert, one ‘dies of thirst just when the palm trees have appeared on the horizon.” – Unknown

Finding time to meditate

Finding time to meditate daily is essential for our inner peace and as we become more peaceful , we can help create more peace around us too and subsequently for the world.

In todays busy lifestyle, many find it difficult to find time to meditate for any length of time. However it is often found that when we regularly meditate we become much more productive.

This is because we become more present in each moment and therefore more efficient. It can then happen that you begin completing your tasks much earlier than expected and find you have more spare time.

The best time I recommend to mediate is in the morning. This is because, if you sit to meditate first thing in the morning, then it will benefit your whole day and help your mind to be clearer and therefore more productive.

If you really struggle with the morning then the next best time would be before bed, for this time, set aside 20 minutes before you go to bed to meditate and you’ll find you sleep much deeper.

20 minutes is the optimal time to start with, however you can adapt this and build up. If you do struggle, start with 5 mins and build by 5mins a week until you get to 20 minutes.

When you are comfortable and if it feels right for you, you can then do both first thing in the morning and last thing at night for optimal results.

As with any new habit; stick to the same time each day if you can and this will help to form the habit much more easily.

Also remember your reasons why and all the benefits you will gain from taking the time to meditate daily.

Benefits such as reducing stress and anxiety, improving productivity and efficiency and many more give you lots of reasons to stick to this life changing and life improving habit. πŸ™πŸ’•πŸ™

To your Healthiest and Best,

Miranda
