    #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!

    #101 Do You Breathe Like You Should? Learn How to Assess Your Breathing

    #101 Do You Breathe Like You Should? Learn How to Assess Your Breathing

    Have you ever stopped to think about how you breathe? It's something we do unconsciously, around 23,000 times a day! But what if you're not doing it right?

    It's thought that over 50% of us are breathing dysfunctionally and studies suggest that up to 75% of people with anxiety also have dysfunctional breathing patterns. And the truth is,  even without a diagnosis, most of us could breathe better so that we can feel better.

    This week's episode dives deep into dysfunctional breathing, uncovering the reasons behind it and  its effects on your well-being.

    Most importantly, I teach you how to identify it in yourself by sharing three simple ways to assess your own breathing.  

    You'll also learn what healthy everyday breathing looks like.

    If you're ready to unlock the full potential of your breath? Tune in!

    Thursday Thoughts - Complaining

    Thursday Thoughts - Complaining

    On today’s Thursday Thoughts, Lucy & I are talking about complaining.

    We all love a good moan, but there’s a difference between getting something off your chest, and constantly complaining.

    We all have a choice as to whether we want to be a ‘drain’ or a ‘radiator’; whether we set the thermostat in the room, or shift our state of being to the temperature of those around us.

    We also have a choice about who we allow access to us. Are we surrounding ourselves with people who lift us up, or drag us down?

    While it’s normal and necessary to have a good old rant sometimes, it’s important not to allow the negativity of complaining to become our norm.

    We hope you’ll find something useful in here.

    Love,
