Moments worth remembering 💫💕☀️

Holding my memories from summer a little longer.

As I settle in to Autumn and the new month ahead, I have been reflecting on the things that have brought me joy over the summer months. The things I planned and looked forward to. The things that just happened, and I went with it! The moments that are now tucked up safely in my thoughts, to dip into when things feel hard or I need a pick me up 🌻

Swimming in the cold lake with my sister was an absolute highlight for me 💕🙌🏻 loved it!!!

Camping…. Love it or hate it??? 🏕️✨

I’ve just got back from a few days camping Catgill Farm near the beautiful Bolton Abbey Estate in North Yorkshire.

After a worrying start with torrential rain ⛈️🙈, the sun came out and we ended up having a lovey little break.

We walked to Bolton Abbey and tackled the stepping stones, played by the river, went on the welly walk nature trail and enjoyed a picnic and ice cream by the stunning church ruins 💕👌 (if you’ve never been… GO!!)

I love the freedom that camping brings, living outdoors and stripping it right back down to basics. I don’t think I would enjoy more than a few nights if I’m being honest, but a short break is absolutely magical for the mind, body and soul ✨☺️

Are you a happy camper? I would love to hear about your favourite site for a short break in the UK….

I will be planning my next summer camping trip soon so post your recommendations in the comments below ☺️⬇️

It’s not always aeroplanes and tropical beach bars during the summer holidays ☀️✈️

Sometimes it’s staycations, local beaches and chilling in the garden. Sometimes time off is just slowing down and giving yourself a bit of extra time that you don’t have in the normal routine of life.

This is your reminder not to compare your summer to other people’s, we all have different situations and capabilities. Spend your energy creating memories your way, because sometimes the best memories are made in the most unexceptional moments 💕

Enjoy your summer, don’t compare and notice the little things that bring you and those around you joy ☺️💫

Life can be kinda chic sometimes 💫

We visited Cuerden Valley Park this weekend for our monthly walk and it was absolutely glorious! ☺️

We had some lovely new faces joining us, alongside some of our regulars that walk with us every month. We are building a wonderful community and it feels good! 💕

A gentle 5k and a drink Cuerden View Cafe in the sunshine was the perfect start to the weekend, and the pups even got to enjoy some doggy ice cream 🐶☀️🙌🏻

Our walks are held on the second Saturday of every month and are completely free to attend. If you would like to join us, drop us a message to be added to our friendly WhatsApp group so you can stay up to date ☺️

We look forward to seeing you there…

Number 1….
💫 I always smile and say hello to people I pass. Most people do the same. Social connection is therapy.

Number 2.
💫 I focus on my breathing and inhale deeply through the nose and out through the mouth. I want to fill my body with the oxygen and nutrients it needs. Fresh air is therapy.

Number 3.
💫 I fully appreciate my surroundings, I notice little details that bring joy. I stop and take pictures or just look for a while. I am fully present and aware of my journey. Gratitude is therapy.

Number 4.
💫 I walk with purpose. I move my arms and let my whole body engage. I want my muscles to work. I want to keep my heart as healthy as possible into old age. I want to feel good and strong. Movement is therapy.

Number 5.
💫 I do not go on my phone (other than taking pictures). This time and space is sacred and it belongs to me. I do not need to check my phone or scroll on social media when I am outside. A digital detox is therapy.

A little added bonus and number 6… I invite people to walk with me, because community is therapy.

Save this for later and remember these for your next walk.
Walking is therapy 🥾🍃

And it’s called walking 🙌🏻💫✅

Micro walking to be exact, perfect if you don’t have the time for a long walk everyday.

Just 10 minutes for your body to start feeling the change..
🍃 Blood circulation improves, delivering oxygen to your brain and other vital organs. You’ll be feeling energised and thinking more clearly.
🍃 Stress hormones start to break down, a quick power walk can help you feel calmer and more balanced.
🍃 1000 - 1400 steps (depending on how fast you walk)
🍃 Improved metabolism
🍃 Fresh air, Vit D and nature.

🥾 Short break or lunch break at work
🥾 Before a meeting
🥾 Waiting to pick the kids up
🥾 Early for an appointment
🥾 Before tea
🥾 Evening power walk

Just some ideas of how to squeeze these little micro walks into your day. If you’ve ever sat in the car waiting around because you’re early…..I would invite you to use that time for a short walk, every minute and every step counts, see how you feel. Try and do it everyday, a couple of time a day if you can.

It’s the most effective and cheapest act of self care you can do to protect your physical and mental health 🧠💕

One small step…..

☀️☺️☀️When walking feels this good….

It was an absolute joy hosting our monthly ladies only walk at Avenham Park yesterday, I can honestly say it’s been my favourite route so far!

The newly opened tram bridge was a highlight and we loved every minute of soaking up the sun as we chatted away and moved our bodies ☀️🙌🏻

If you are interested in joining a friendly and supportive walking group, here’s a little bit of info about what you can expect with us:

💫 We are a women only walking group, led by a qualified therapist and a personal trainer. We believe in looking after the body and mind.
💫 Our walks are the second Saturday of every month and we meet at 10.30am. We decided on a set week so you can plan ahead (we know life gets busy!)
💫 We have a WhatsApp group where we share information about upcoming walks.
💫 Our walks are completely free and the majority are pram friendly (we’ll let you know in the WhatsApp if it’s not)
💫 We welcome all ages and abilities. Walks are normally around 5/6K and we walk at a moderate pace.
💫 We always find a nice place for a drink and snack afterwards. There’s no pressure to stay though if you don’t want to.
💫 Most women who join us don’t know anyone, that soon changes and everyone is welcoming and friendly.
💫 We are hoping to add some additional walks and social events soon, follow Katie Biggs | Psychotherapist and Femalebodyworkouts ✨Female Only Gym🫶🏻 to stay in the loop!

You can visit my highlights to see some pictures and posts from previous walks 🍃🥾

🥾🙌🏻💕 MICRO WALKING…..yes please!!

If you’ve ever found yourself with 10 minutes spare, perhaps you’re early to an appointment or you have a short break at work before a meeting….would you consider a micro walk a useful way to spend that time?

Research suggests that short bursts of walking, even as little as 2 to 10 minutes, spread throughout your day, can have a HUGE impact on your physical and mental health 💕

We have been taught the golden ticket is 30 minutes, which is great, but not always achievable. Manageable, consistent micro walks could be the difference in moving your body, or deciding not to bother.

I grab every opportunity I can to be outside in nature and have a little stroll, I’m always a few minutes early for most things, so I utilise that time and get a few steps in.

EVERY STEP COUNTS 💫

If you’re starting out on a journey to improve your health, become fitter, want to feel less stressed or just need to spend a bit more time away from your phone, see if you have any little pockets of time that you can fit a micro walk in to….you’ll be surprised how much better you start to feel.

Save this post for later to remind you next time your sat in the car waiting for something…you can move those legs and start to change your life ☺️
