Self care has been bandied around for years now hasn’t it - and while I will always talk about the vital need for us all to engage in self care, I also know that some of us have maybe grown a bit weary of the phrase. And that it can feel like yet another stick to beat ourselves up with when we’re not doing self care the way we are supposed to. But …

Self sabotage - it’s something that I think we’ve all done right. Being amazing with exercise and nutrition all week before throwing in the towel on a Friday night as you dive into a tub of celebrations and vow you’ll start again next week. But in my world, when this happens, it’s not just some senseless act that we do to deliberately undo all of o…

If you’ve ever uttered the words “I just prefer it when I’m busy”, the truth is that this could be a little lie that is holding you back from making the changes in your life that you would really like to.

Supplements can be a bit of a minefield with so many options out there and so much advice on what we should be taking to support our health and wellbeing.

Diet culture has existed our entire lives. From thigh gaps to heroin chic to Kim kardashian bums to leggings legs. And call me stupid, but I kind of hoped that in my 40s some of that stuff would start to fade away.

Well today, I’m …

Summer is on it’s way - and with it I know a lot of panic and worry about getting fitter and maybe losing some weight ready for beaches and more heat and generally less clothing to cover ourselves up with.
