Last week’s episode of the Feel Better, Live Mor

Last week’s episode of the Feel Better, Live More Podcast was a brilliant episode where @drchatterjee talks with David Bradford and Carole Robin on how to build exceptional relationships. There were many notable points during the two hour chat - enough that I once again broke my "no new books" rule to buy their book, Connect.

Carole mentioned that one of the executives who had taken their course at Stanford had started to implement a 90 second per person intro at team meetings where they would say if you really knew me, you'd know...and then share something a bit more personal about themselves. They also needed to include 3 feelings that they were having.

I’ve decided I want to try out this tool here! I might even make it a regular feature!

Here we go…if you really knew me, you’d know…I’m an information addict. I listen to podcasts, all of the Feel Better, Live More episodes as soon as they are released, and I jump around a bit on other shows depending on who is speaking and the topic. I would love to sit at my computer or with a notepad and make copious notes on everything that I listen to and ultimately write a blog review on each too. But as a busy mum, who has two children, a dog, two cats, a business and a husband who is working abroad most of the time, I’ve accepted that I will make do with listening to podcasts in the car and when I walk. I know I will forget a lot, but the points most relevant to me and my clients seem to be remembered. I often read the books on the topics that grab me most. I read mostly in the bath and sometimes when I’m eating or if I get a moment in a coffee shop alone. Finally, I listen to training calls, summits, and other videos that I’ve saved for later whilst I cook and clean up. My information addiction often leaves me feeling a little wired and overwhelmed, so I periodically will then have a few hours of quiet, no radio, nothing to learn, nothing to listen to. I tend to feel anxious in my luteal phase and the overload makes my head feel like it's about to explode. Then I need to back off and potentially see @acuholly_buntingford_herts!

What do you think? What would I know about you if I really knew you?

This is 40! I celebrated by 40th birthday last Sa

This is 40!

I celebrated by 40th birthday last Saturday! What a decade it has been! I started by 30s as a working very long hours, slightly stressed, but loving life in-house lawyer working for a trust company in Switzerland. My husband proposed to me just after my 30th birthday and I felt well on the way to checking off all those boxes prescribed by society.

Two daughters, a move back to the UK, a dog and a few post birth issues (prolapse, diastasis recti, leaking) later....I retrained to be a Restore Your Core teacher and then a yoga teacher who is passionate about helping other women feel good in their bodies again free from core and pelvic floor issues.

The past 5 years in particular have been a journey of self discovery leading to me reaching 40 feeling more confident about myself and who I am than I’ve felt for a long time. Now I can take decisions based on my values and what I want out of life as opposed to getting hung up on “shoulds” and boxes to check.

I have never felt more present in the moment and grounded in my body. I look back on the past with compassion and affection. I look forward to the future with curiosity and excitement.

Bring on the 40s!

Second photo is the present I received from hubby and the girls! 💪 The beautiful joy-bringing @nohrd Swing Tower. Oh how I love it (and them!)!

Restore Your Core from the comfort of your own hom

Restore Your Core from the comfort of your own home on an evening!

My next Restore Your Core Foundations 6 week (one week break for half term/bank holiday) course is available for booking. It starts on 10 May at 7.30pm. There are only 6 places, so don't delay booking your space. It's online via Zoom and includes more than 50 videos for you to do between classes and after the course that you can keep. During the six week course, I send you messages every weekday with tips and a video suggestion for the day.

What questions do you have for me about the course? Either ask in the comments below or send me a DM.

Is your bra preventing your core from engaging wel

Is your bra preventing your core from engaging well?. Yes, your bra could be stopping your core from engaging well!

Don’t have time to watch now? Save💾 for later!

Are you one of the many women who has worn a bra a lot less due to being at home in lockdown? You might notice more now that you’ve had a break or more breaks from wearing bras that your bra is feeling tight and restrictive. And often they are!

When we breathe, we need to be able to breathe into our ribs 360 degrees, front and back, side to side and a little bit of up and down. If you’ve got a tight bra on, you won’t be able to expand the ribs as easily. We need to breathe into our ribs to have optimum breath, core and pelvic floor connection.

➡️ Bra too tight

➡️ can’t breathe into ribs

➡️ increases pressure on abdominal wall (not great for diastasis recti/separation of the abdominal muscles) “bulging” and/or

➡️ increases pressure on pelvic floor (not great for pelvic organ prolapse or leaking) “bearing down”

➡️ doesn’t help the synergy between the breath, core and pelvic floor, which should work together as a system.

Watch the video to hear more!

And let me know what you think? Is your bra too tight?

It's World Earth Day!

I'm far from the biggest eco-warrior, but my awareness has grown a lot quicker in the past few years.

From reducing food and other waste, avoiding single use plastics, using less chemicals, avoiding fast fashion - I'm a lot more mindful about how and what I consume and spend time checking out the eco (and human) credentials of the companies that I buy from.

For now, I'm tagging some of my favourite small businesses who are helping me increase my eco-friendly knowledge.
