    Why it's time to take a break

    Why it's time to take a break

    I can't believe I've been putting out weekly episodes of this podcast for the last 2 years!  But now it's time to take a little break.  Tune in to hear why I feel it's time.

    The good news is you can still listen to Lucy and I chat on a range of different topics in our weekly Thursday Thoughts!

    #104 A Yes Filled Life with Brenda Winkle

    #104 A Yes Filled Life with Brenda Winkle

    Do you find you often run out of time for the things that YOU want to do?

    Perhaps you skip yoga because you've got to finish off that email or you're breathwork/meditation practice goes out the window because there's a pile of laundry that needs folding.  

    Maybe you cancel that massage you've been looking forward to because your teenager has forgotten to take the dog for a walk!

    These things seem small in isolation but when added together, can seriously impact the quality of your life. 

    If, however, you learnt to live a YES-Filled life, then you'd find a way to make time and space for yourself even when you're super busy.

    And this is exactly what  my guest this week, Brenda Winkle, and I talk about.

    As well as an Energy Healer, Breathwork Facilitator and Somatic Coach, Brenda is an expert at helping others live a life which they love, allowing them to move through their days with more freedom, ease, and joy.

    And who doesn't want some of that?!

    Join us in this conversation where we discuss:

    🌟 How to prioritise yourself
    🌟 The steps to navigating change
    🌟 The power of Support
    🌟 Living a yes filled life
    🌟 The importance of healthy boundaries

    Brenda shares such wisdom on these topics as well as lots of practical takeaways.  I'm sure you'll enjoy this conversation as much as I did. 💛

    Thursday Thoughts - Growth Mindset

    Thursday Thoughts - Growth Mindset

    On today’s Thursday Thoughts, Lucy and I are talking about learning and growth mindset.
    Having a growth mindset means that we understand that our abilities can be developed, and that we can actually get smarter. Unlike a fixed mindset that keeps us stuck, believing that our level of intelligence and capability is set in stone from birth, and determines what we can or cannot do.
    More than anything, we want to keep learning and growing. Success doesn’t necessarily depend on how ‘intelligent’ someone is - it’s often far more important to be persistent, determined, resilient, and to never give up. That’s how we actually make sh*t happen.
    We hope you’ll find something useful in here.
    Love,

    #103 How Pilates Changed My Life with Caroline Copp

    #103 How Pilates Changed My Life with Caroline Copp

    This week I chat to Caroline Kopp, a master Pilates trainer and health coach, about her personal story of overcoming chronic fatigue and pain through Pilates. 

    Pilates literally changed Caroline’s life as it allowed her to move in a way that maintained and and even increased her energy levels without the burnout associated with high-intensity workouts.  It also helped her to become pain free.

    In this episode, Caroline shares how pilates is a sustainable approach to health that  can support you through the various changes your body goes through, particularly during midlife and menopause.

    For many, midlife can bring a decline in energy levels and conventional wisdom might suggest that rest is the best medicine for fatigue, but Caroline challenges that notion.  Instead, a consistent practice of low-intensity movements, such as those found in Pilates, can be incredibly beneficial.

    I loved this episode and I hope you do too!

    Thursday Thoughts - Strength Training

    On today’s Monday Motivation, Lucy and I are talking about strength training.

    It’s important as we age that we’re incorporating some strength training into our exercise routines, not least to protect ourselves against osteoporosis.

    Polly and I talk about our own strength training routines, and Polly shares some useful tips on how we can add it into our every day lives.

    We hope you’ll find this helpful!
