There is an old mentality about exercise that’s reflected in common sayings you’ve probably heard or spoken yourself, like:

“No pain, no gain.”

“Whip yourself into shape.”

It’s the idea that exercise is something you have to do, or that it’s even a form of punishment for overeating.

But what if exercising and moving your body could be easy and fun, and it didn’t even require a ton of your time?

How are your New Year’s resolutions going?

Even if you’ve been struggling with them, February is a great time to take on a “new year, new you” approach to your daily habits and rituals.

And one of the best ways to do this is to swap out old habits that no longer serve you with some new habits that make a BIG impact over time!

3. Have I lost my passion for what I do?
4. Is that loss of passion affecting other areas of…

Your life today is essentially the sum of your habits.

How in shape or out of shape you are? Is a result of your habits.

How happy or unhappy you are? Is a result of your habits.

How successful or unsuccessful you are? Is a result of your habits.

What you repeatedly do (i.e. what you spend time thinking about and doing each day) ultimately forms the person you are, and the results you currently see in every area of your life.

But what if you want to…

With the changing of each season we find new reasons to up level our health and fitness.

At the beginning of the New Year many people want to shed the winter holiday pounds and get back on their best healthy habits.

At the onset of spring and warmer weather and lighter clothes many people are wanting to cleanse and lighten up their body and their environment, the famous “spring cleaning”.

And so on…

So many of my clients talk about wanting to shift their mindset about fitness from a “no-pain-no-gain”…

What does that mean you might ask?

In simple terms, it means to put on your favorite piece of music, close the doors and the blinds, allow your body to be your guide, and dance like no-one is watching!

There’s nothing, in my mind, that’s more fun and freeing, and life giving than even 5-minutes of dancing!

Whether it’s just 5-minutes or my…

As I dive head-on into my 40’s I notice now more than ever the importance of my natural life-style and how it’s made a BIG difference over the years.

I often get told I look a decade younger (or more) than I am.

I think what people are really telling me is I look healthy, vibrant, that I glow, and that I don’t look tired, depleted and old.

So how can you feel and look radiant and vibrant? Here are my top ten tips!…
