The sunrises at this time of year are nothing short of spectacular. You don't even need to be up too early to witness them. On a Thursday morning I drive along the coast at 6am from Blyth to Monkseaton and honestly this morning I'm sure the colors were changing minute by minute. This feeling of awe we have towards experiences in nature like this are scientifically proven to improve our health. It calms our nervous system, reduces inflammation and boosts mental well-being. By shifting your focus away from yourself you reduce negative self talk and become fully present in the moment. So step outside and look around you with all your senses. The spiders web, the colours and maybe even an awesome sky.

We are stepping over the threshold of summer into Autumn and the skies are delivering πŸ‘Œ. Yes it's harder to spring out of bed in the dark but some mornings I absolutely get my reward.

Bridging the time between summer and autumn and using up freezer goodies.

Spiced Red Cabbage(made last month and frozen) and tofu πŸ˜‹ with my pasta and obviously some tasty cheddar thrown in for some gooiness!
Tofu simply seasoned with πŸ§‚ and pepper, and some lemon squeezed over the whole dish to keep it fresh and still summery...

I love this time of year when we can still catch those rays 😎 but a blanket will be needed to cosy up with, candles πŸ•― on!

Cultural experiences and engaging with the arts have real health benefits including lowering cortisol and slower biological aging. But that's just an added bonus because life would be pretty rubbish without art and creativity.

Took a trip to The Bowes Museum this week and it did not disappoint πŸ™Œ. Mainly for the Vivienne Westwood exhibition, but the whole museum was beautifully curated, engaging and in such lovely surroundings.
Have you had a cultural experience you would recommend ?

You don't need a picture perfect space to practice in. Yes it can be nice, but a welcoming community, a clean space and an experienced teacher are what makes it beneficial.

6 years of face to face Pilates classes at Coxlodge Community Centre and we have grown in numbers, strength and support.
