Mind Body and Sue

3 days into our 10 day Intensive Reformer Pilates Teaching Course with the always fun to be with ! And it is exactly that INTENSIVE 💪 in a very good way .
TOP TIP for today :
Before doing any abdominal exercise :
Engage your pelvic floor muscles first : draw your tailbone towards your p***c bone and squeeze your left and right sitting bones together . Then to activate your transverse abdominus , the deepest core muscle, place your fingers on the muscles just below your navel and contract those muscles by pulling down and way from your fingers towards your spine .
Then you're ready to go !

Reaching out to someone you can trust is one of the first steps .
Mental health is close to my heart 💓.
Always feel you can get in touch .

What a lovely and life changing day 🔆it was 2 years ago when invited me to go to a Shamanic workshop at the London College of Psychic Studies with world reknown Author a
Shamanic Healer and Teacher.

It sparked a fire 🔥of curiosity in Shamanic healing .( Many of you know that I have been a Reiki Master for 23 years now) . They are very similar and yet different , both coming from the Universe and a place of Unconditional Love ( roughly translated as Munay in Quechen ).

The next chapter of me having the pleasure to learn Shamanic Healing will follow tomorrow as we leave Cusco to travel to Macchu Pichu on a spiritual journey with my lovely husband Clive x

Munay

So proud of ! 👏 14kg lost and 55cms slimmer in 4 months 🙌 She knows from her DNA 🧬 Test that carbs are not her friend. Above all she has absolutely made exercise 🏋️‍♀️ part of her daily routine . She is smashing it 💪 Well done Debbie ! X

I normally train in the gym or pop TRX's up in the park with Vikki and Emily. If you're doing the healthy thing 80% of the time , 20% of the time you should nourish your soul with a little of what you fancy.
Gorgeous cocktails 🍸🍹 where we were delighted to meet up with Chase and Louise Collins and then some delicious food at hosted so well by Virginia -a fabulous evening x

Enjoyed a fantastic Pelvic Health Workshop with Susannah of yesterday.

Did you know that over 50% of women over 50 who have given birth will have some kind of pelvic organ prolapse ? And yet few people talk about it .

Who knew that the tension in your feet can relate to pelvic floor strength ? There are exercises that you can do with a fascial ball to release the tension and improve your pelvic health .

Who knew that the right kind of breathwork can improve pelvic floor muscles too . Allowing your rib cage to properly expand allows the diaphragm to properly move which in turn helps the pelvic floor muscles . I’m definitely going to share these tips with my regular PT clients for whom it’s relevant .
If you have a complex personal issue get in touch with Susannah . She’s so knowledgeable and a lovely person.

Having discovered Reiki 24 years ago and found it life-changing , I became a Reiki Master in 2001. Sharing the knowledge and techniques of this wonderful healing method helps people on so many levels . If you’re interested in learning Reiki , I’m currently arranging Reiki First Degree courses starting in June .Course duration is about 10 hours over 2-4 sessions at times to best suit the group. The course costs £175 and will give you all you need to start giving Reiki to family and friends . If you would like to know more please call 07771996118 or email [email protected]

What a lovely start to a perfect day!
Sunshine ☀️ cardio 🏃weights and 🧘‍♀️! Spent the day with 2 of my favourite PT clients who are smashing it in the best way ! You know who you are and I think you’re amazing ! I am always so grateful to still do treatments and PT .
Three very special clients had Reiki treatments to help with overall health balancing , dealing with and starting to release grief , looking forward to new beginnings and opportunities and generally feeling better overall .
This is why I do this job and I am so grateful to my clients every day 🙏🏽

Off for a game of tennis 🎾 in Calverley ! Such a beautiful day with sun,🌞 blossom 🌸 and blue skies. A nice little vitamin D boost after a dull winter.
Happy Easter everyone 🐣🌷- enjoy ! X

24 years ago my dear Kate introduced me to Reiki. 🌀Since then I have never looked back - it completely changed my perspective on life 🙏🏽I learned how to manage my energy and how to connect on a deeper level to all things living including our planet 🌈I learned how to dump stress, how to bring your higher consciousness into your daily life. ⚡️It led me to change my career as an accountant and to buy the beloved Knowle Grange Health Spa where we helped spread the good energy vibes for 17 years . Then life became simpler again and it comes back to the essence of Reiki. Now it is my absolute passion and pleasure to share the knowledge and techniques behind this gentle but very effective healing system. There are courses at times to suit those interested in learning and I teach beginners right through to Reiki Master Teachers .
Anyone who is interested in Reiki is welcome to come to my Reiki Shares where we meditate , give and receive healing and share ideas . The next dates are : Thursday 18th April 7-9pm and Wednesday 24th April 12.30-2.30pm. Just contact me on 07771996118 to book in or email [email protected]

Lovely day today shared with 💕learning the teachings of Shamanic Lightbody healing with David and Susan Hills in Matfield .🌀.
For me it’s the second time of doing the course as I loved it so much the first time ! Who knew that collecting things from nature to represent your key issues or life themes , then contemplating and sharing these with one trusted other could help bring such a release? One ‘key issue’ didn’t even feature in my chosen three, so therefore it’s not really an issue .
One feels released so I can stop spending energy on that and focus instead on other more positive things .
So literally in one day I feel that I have halved my problems . They are still there of course but I feel so much more ready and energised to tackle them . Feeling grateful for such a restorative healing day and enjoying such peace 🕊️fabulous energy and some gorgeous spring sunshine . 🌞

🥗Super healthy lunch today : one of the best and easiest tips is ‘when you have all of your ingredients out for your meal , see if there is one more colour you can add .’ It helps us eat a 🌈 rainbow diet full of antioxidants. The more naturally brightly coloured your foods are , the more antioxidants there will be .

🥦I have a variation on my GSTM1 gene which means I don’t create the enzyme for the final stage of detoxification . Eating cruciferous vegetables like broccoli every day really helps. 🌶️Peppers are full of antioxidants to fight off free radicals at a cellular level . Essential for me as I have a variation on the SOD2 gene . Antioxidants help prevent cancer and can slow down the ageing process ( always useful !) .
🔴Beetroot contains betalains that help fight cell damage and inflammation and as a vasodilator it can reduce blood pressure too .
🧆Houmous is a great source of fibre. Chickpeas are phytoestrogens , or plant based sources of oestrogen .
One of the best tips for perimenopausal or menopausal women is to eat plenty of phytoestrogens . As the levels of oestrogen naturally fall in the body , phytoestrogens help smooth the flow. If you want to know the best way to eat for your body then you too can take a DNA 🧬 test . I’m happy to have a chat with you if you want to know more . Call 07771996118

Congratulations this International Women’s Day to Eilish McColgan , the Scottish Olympian and Commonwealth Games Gold Medallist 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿. She beat Paula Radcliffe’s 10000m record just 3 days ago !🥇
In 2019 Eilish had a DNAFit test which showed a 63% power 🏋️‍♀️preference vs 37% endurance 🏃‍♀️- an unusual surprise for an endurance athlete. She learned that she got better results from quality of exercise over quantity.
She also tested with a high carbohydrate sensitivity , increased need for B vitamins, Omega 3’s and anti-oxidants. Tweaking her exercise and nutrition is clearly getting her results . DNA 🧬 testing for nutrition, exercise , sleep and stress is beneficial for anyone from a complete novice to an Olympian .
