Getting going – the easy way. I know there is a lot in the box and that’s because I really wanted to give you all you need to lose weight and enjoy being slimmer, happier and healthier. You really do have all you need but most of the questions I get asked are about where you should start. There is so much good stuff in the box that it can feel a little overwhelming, so, here’s the quick....

Wow what a difference a few inches make, well at least in some sections of the media… unless you’ve been buried under a mountain of snow you’ll have read the debate in the gossip mags on the lovely Jessica Simpson and her recent weight gain. It’s front page news… I think the world’s gone mad! It’s been an up and down month all round on the celeb scene, Jessica Simpson and Kelly....

Here are some popular fitness myths you may have heard and what I hear daily when teaching in fitness classes: Muscle turns into fat when you stop exercising Muscle and fat are completely different body tissue, it is impossible for one to become the other. It is definitely true to say that if you stop exercising you will gain fat, but this is because your muscle decreases in size if they are....

Osteoporosis is a common health problem in this country. As many as 1 in 2 women over the age of 50 will have osteoporosis. A sedentary lifestyle with a lack of weight-bearing exercise is a risk factor. Osteoporosis results in bones becoming less dense and more “honeycombed”. The bones are therefore more easily broken, especially if you have an injury such as a fall. Oestrogen is a....

I am a glutton. It's the passion of us 7's on the Enneagram (also perhaps Scanners or Renaissance Souls?). It may not be about food (although that fits for me) but a glutton for anything -- experience, doing, seeing, touching, hearing, learning, etc.. I can feel like a giant mouth searching for things to CONSUME. Which can be really, really fun, if I keep coming back to the place of "Nothing....

How often do we sit waiting for inspiration? We sit and stew and ponder and pout. We think it's all about the mind and how it tie ideas to inspiration, yet, the experience of inspiration is first physical. What is your calling card of inspiration? Goose bumps? Chills? A burst of energy? The urge to dance? Suddenly feeling rather randy? What if, rather than believing....

When something feels "difficult" or "hard," that is not a signal you should not proceed or that you are not "living on purpose" or any other new age nonsense. I've had so many clients and retreat participants stay stuck for years because they thought they shouldn't do their business or creative ideas because it didn't always feel easy or "in flow." Instead of deciding a lack of ease is an....

Now let me explain that statement. If you see the world as a friendly place, you'll tend to notice the ways in which things work out for the best. Because you're looking for 'friendly' things to happen, you're that much more likely to find them. At times, you may even create them with your intention and actions. This ‘Law of Attraction’ has been known for centuries. What you believe and....

You can’t be a great communicator without being a great people reader. Attractive communicators are super-detectives of human signals. They’re alert to every little shift. So, how open are you to what’s going on? Many of us have developed a kind of protective bubble that keeps the world out. If you live in a busy city you will know the unnerving feeling of scurrying down a quiet....

Can working out in the morning burn more calories?

Try to eat something within 2 hours of your workout as this is known as your ‘golden window of opportunity.’ Your body will be craving nutrients in order to replenish all the energy you’ve used up and will be burning fat to do this.

Always listen to your body when you're exercising as to how you're feeling – whether you're feeling really good and feel like pushing yourself that little bit further on that particular day or if your feeling tired and are finding it more challenging than usual doing your regular workout – take it that little bit easier. There will always be days when you feel you can do more and other....
