Back in my happy place 🥾 ♥️

Ben Lawers Range 🏔️🏔️🏔️🏔️🏕️🏔️🏔️

One of my life goals is to complete all of the Munros.

In 2024 I managed to tick off 34 and for one reason or another the mountains fell off my priority list last year.

But I have decided that I miss them and the feeling I get from escaping to the hills.

Maybe escaping isn’t the right word, but despite the massive bag on my back, the moment I set foot on a hike I feel like a weight is being lifted.

Day to day worries fade away and are replaced with being present in the moment.

The mountains challenge me.

They build resilience and strength, both physically and mentally.

They bring new faces and stories from others on their own adventure.

They bring smiles, tears, laughter and memories.

Not every hike goes according to plan, but that reminds me to be adaptable and helps me to learn and grow.

For me completing the Munros is not just a tick box exercise. It’s a way of challenging myself, exploring Scotland and filling my free time with new adventures.

I hope you’ll enjoy sharing the experiences with me along the way and that it might inspire you to go on your own adventures ☺️

A wholesome day out in Angus with .macleod ☀️

When you check MWIS and the man is crawling on his hands and knees you know it’s time to change your plans 🌬️🤣

A reminder that there are so many amazing places on our doorstep that you don’t need to travel far to find adventure 😃

Have you thought about your ecosystem? 🌍

It’s a word that might not have entered your mind since school, but an important one.

An ecosystem is the environment in which an organism lives in.

🌺The environment we choose to surround ourselves in can help us to thrive or wither.

Have a think about the following:

❤️Who do you surround yourself with? Do they support and light you up?

💼Do you love your work and find it rewarding?

🏡Does your home make you feel comfortable? Is it cluttered?

🌳Do you spend time in nature?

🧑‍🧑‍🧒‍🧒How is your relationship with your family?

💸Are finances a concern?

🏃‍♀️What do you do in your spare time?

🧘🏼‍♀️How do you relax and have fun?

All of these areas and more create an atmosphere which either positively or negatively impact your health.

🍽️Yes, the food on your plate is important, but there are also other elements we need to nourish us and help us to flourish.

If you feel you need support with this then reach out and I can share more about health coaching and how I may be able to help you 😊

Return of the stack…sorry, I couldn’t resist 🎶

It’s the return of my monthly newsletter.

I have been struggling a bit with how to show up online.

I enjoy interacting with everyone on here, but my main goal is to provide value and information so that you can make informed choices about your health.

These posts are great for the highlights, but sometimes I have more that I want to share.

So the monthly newsletter on (Sub)stack is back!

I will be writing about nutrition, all things health, wellness and personal development, with a pinch of my adventures in the great outdoors for good measure.

Let’s talk about your HEALTHSPAN....

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿Life expectancy in Scotland is estimated to be 76.5 years for men and 80.7 years for women (National Statistics, 2020-2022).

👵👴The average lifespan has increased over the last 40 years.

🩺We are living longer, but how many of those years are spent with good health?

The National Records of Scotland for 2021-2023 state that our average healthy life expectancy, which is the number of years of life spent in good health, is 60 years for women and 59.6 years for men.

This figure has been decreasing since 2014.

What future do you want for yourself?

Personally, I want to be one of those people you hear about who are off on epic adventures when they are in their 80s🧗🏼‍♀️🤸🏼‍♀️🚵🏼‍♀️

I want to be active in my retirement.

Are you the same?

🤔And what life do you want to live now?

🙋🏼‍♀️My ultimate goal is to make the most of the time I have right now by improving my health both physically and mentally and to support you to do the same ❤️

I know in life there are no guarantees, but I want to give myself and others the best chance at having as long a healthspan as possible.

I love the statement:

‘Genetics loads the gun, but our environment pulls the trigger’.

🧬Yes, genetically we may be predisposed to certain conditions, but there are things we can do to support our health every day.

➡️We can make different choices.

➡️We can make small, sustainable, impactful changes.

➡️We can make a difference

Over the past few years I have done just that and I continue to do so.

📚I’ve educated myself and I’ve prioritised my health and I want to help you to do the same!

🤔Have you thought about your healthspan before?

❓️What small change could you make today?

Jumping on the flashback to 2016 trend…

* 10 years qualified as a pharmacist 👩‍⚕️ This was the year I decided to leave community pharmacy. I had qualified as an independent prescriber the year before and was excited to take on a new role working in mental health at a local hospital 🏥

* I was a member of The Moray Mountaineering Club and regularly joined them rock climbing at Cummingston and on weekend meets across Scotland.

* A highlight was a trip to Loch Ossian where I bagged 3 Munros in winter conditions taking my total to 10. This was just the beginning of my love for the mountains 🏔️

* The club helped me to make some great friendships and we organised a weekend wild camping at Sandwood Bay. And yes, we did carry in a volleyball net 😂 and I left with the worst sunburn on half of my face 🥵

* We also stayed at Inchnadamph and hiked up Canisp with beautiful views over to Suilven.

* This was also the year I bought my first mountain bike 🚵‍♀️

* I had always been a foodie and enjoyed cooking and devouring a cookbook of an evening looking for new ideas. This was the year I became interested in nutrition, inspired by deliciously Ella, The Food Medic and Madeleine Shaw.

* A year full of adventure and big changes with my career. Little did I know what the next 10 years had in store for me ✨

* It’s been so lovely reflecting on how life has changed and I feel excited to see what the next 10 years will bring!

* I look forward to seeing your flashback posts 📸
