Thank you to everyone that commented about beginners strength training. I will be sending out messages on Saturday to you all!

Who is this course for?

If you’ve lost weight quickly through a GLP-1 medication or a diet, then some of this weight will be muscle loss, also if you’re in perimenopause, menopause, or post-menopause, strength training isn’t optional—it’s essential.

As we age and during hormonal changes, we naturally lose muscle mass. Rapid weight loss can accelerate this, leaving us weaker, slowing metabolism, and increasing the risk of poor balance, injuries, and reduced independence later in life.

Strength training helps you:
✔ Preserve and build lean muscle
✔ Support bone health
✔ Boost metabolism
✔ Improve strength, balance, and confidence
✔ Maintain a healthy body composition

And also…

Muscles and the brain constantly communicate with each other. When muscles contract during strength training, they release beneficial compounds called myokines that can positively influence brain health.

The goal isn’t just to weigh less—it’s to be strong, capable, and healthy for years to come.

Strong is not just how you look. It’s how you live. 💜

So comment below if you haven’t already and I will include you in my messages.

💪💪💪💪💪💪

Coming soon… 💪💪

if you are a midlife woman or post menopausal woman and know how important strength training is but are clueless about what to do, then I will be running a 10 day ‘intro to strength training’ which will help you!

Equipment, exercises, how many, how often, etc etc!

I try and avoid stress wherever possible as I know the harm it can cause on your mind and body..

but the course I’m currently doing actually made me think…

Stress – Is It Always Bad?

Not all stress is harmful. In fact, small doses of challenge and stress can help us grow stronger, build resilience, improve confidence and adapt to life’s demands.

The problem comes when stress becomes constant. Our bodies are designed to cope with short bursts of stress, not to stay in “fight or flight” mode day after day.

Too much stress can lead to:
• Poor sleep
• Increased anxiety and low mood
• Fatigue and low energy
• Digestive issues
• Weakened immunity
• Increased inflammation
• Hormonal imbalances
• Higher blood pressure
• Muscle tension and headaches

The goal isn’t to remove all stress from life – it’s to create balance. Challenge yourself, step outside your comfort zone, then make time to rest, recover and reset. This is the important part. You need to stop. Then you restart stronger and deal with situations better.

Strength comes from both resilience and recovery. 💜

do you know when your stress levels are becoming too much? Are you taking time out regularly?

I am very excited to announce that I am collaborating with the very talented Kate from Soulful Soundbaths again, for a wonderful afternoon and evening ‘RESET’ wellness retreat at the beautiful Chichester Arts Centre on Saturday 12th September.

RESET: A Wellness Retreat for Mind, Body & Soul

Chichester City Arts, Mount Ln, Chichester PO19 3DQ

Saturday 12th September

Join us for RESET, a restorative afternoon and evening experience designed to help you slow down, release tension and reconnect with yourself.

The intention behind RESET is to support nervous system regulation and holistic wellbeing by creating space to release tension, quiet the mind, and restore balance through movement, breath, sound and stillness.

The retreat begins with grounding movement, breathwork and sensory activation using essential oils, alongside techniques to support lymphatic drainage, vagus nerve stimulation, fascial release and nervous system regulation.

Guests will then enjoy a nourishing grazing board with herbal teas and soft drinks before settling into a period of reflection and relaxation.

As the evening approaches, the experience culminates in Crépuscule (Twilight), a deeply immersive lying-down classical concert where music and mindfulness meet. Following a guided meditation, guests will be transported through the evocative sounds of harp and Tibetan singing bowls, alongside music by William Alwyn, Ludovico Einaudi and Ólafur Arnalds.

All participants will receive a goodie bags of wellness gifts

3.30pm - 8pm

EARLY BIRD (First 10 spaces) £55pp

STANDARD £65pp

I’m so excited and nervous about going to see The Mind Architect in London next week. A live audience interaction event. I’m taking myself out of my comfort zone and going on my own.

The mind fascinates me. Overcoming fear. Overcoming anxiety. Pushing yourself.
All things I need and hope to pass onto people.
