Mums Get Fit

There is a lot of pressure out there for mums, we are supposed to have it all figured out and be in control and on top of everything. 

The reality though is very different, caring for a new person 24/7 isn't just an extra job, it makes everything else more challenging too.

This is why I have created a free online community on Facebook  that understands this because of our shared experience.

If you're a busy mum who wants to get fit, who wants to find with best way to eat, that works for you and your family, while juggling everything else... 

Then mums get fit is for you.

As a functional health and neuroscience behavioural coach, I have over 8 years of experience in helping women who struggle with PMS, period problems, pain, gut issues, and headaches/migraines, improve their health and wellbeing. 

Besides that I also consult with businesses on how to support employee health and wellbeing, because good health and low stress is good for business.

I work with female leaders and business owners who want to become more productive, energised, and feel a sense of vitality in work and life.

I also offer workshops, talks, group sessions, and wellbeing programmes for businesses, focusing on topics such as nutrition, lifestyle change, menopause, hormones, and stress reduction. 

My mission is to empower women and businesses to thrive with functional health and neuroscience.

Most women under-eat

Not eating enough food is one of the biggest issues I see in my clients.

Eating enough food every single day is FOUNDATIONAL for our health and our body will start to struggle if it doesn’t get enough of what it needs to function every single day.

Here are some clues that you may be under eating:

• Having regular food cravings
• Feeling tired a lot
• Experience regular afternoon crashes
• Having trouble falling or staying asleep
• Having low or no libido
• Struggle with Low body temps/cold hands/feet
• Always thinking of food
• Struggle with lack of muscle growth/strength progression
• Experience constipation and bloating
• Feels fatigued during or after exercise
• Experience poor recovery with exercise

Does any of these signs sound familiar? 

I would love to know ♥️ so feel free to comment below?

Just a little Sunday morning thought ♥️

My successful clients are learning to give their bodies what they need out of love for themselves and because they just can’t help themselves.

When they work out it is about what gives them joy and why, they find themselves treating their body better and the result is that they start to look, feel and perform better every day.

If you are focussing on using force and motivation to try to achieve your goals you eventually will give up if you aren’t enjoying it.

If you don't like running after a while of doing it you will stop.

The same goes for broccoli if you don't like it but keep trying and that doesn't change eventually you will stop having it.

All which results in a vicious circle of starting health projects and stopping them.

Which with time changes how you feel about yourself.

The nervous system doesn’t forget anything!

Everything is information to help us survive and it is all stored in our system to keep us safe in the future.

But we can retrain the response of nervous system so it doesn’t have to be overreactive. 

I work with a lot of women who has experienced traumas and has been diagnosed with PTSD. 

They have all had therapy to help them with their Traumas (I’m not a therapist) but they come to me because their bodies are showing physical signs that balance hasn’t been restored.

Signs like physical pain, hormones issues, gut issue, chronic inflammation, autoimmune diseases, cystitis, anxiety/ depression and fatigue

We work together to restore their bodies balance so they can live their lives without physical symptoms that control their lives by focussing on the nervous system relearning so it can stop overreacting 🙌

If you have had a newborn you know there is certain things you need to do to help your newborn to feel safe and content.

Healthy newborns are born with the ability to breathe, feed, wee, poo, sleep, feel hot/cold and feel pain, when we meet the needs of the baby the baby is relaxed and Happy. 

The baby works just like the protection networks of your brain 🧠 that you still have today.

If your inner newborns needs aren’t met your brain and body will be giving you signs that they aren’t happy.

Signs like pain, shallow breathing, gut issues, skin issues, poor sleep, bloating, cramps,IBS, low energy to name but a few. 

If you are experiencing some of these checking if your inner newborn baby’s needs are being met is a great place to start to change how you feel.

Do you feel super overwhelmed and exhausted trying to manage your migraine episodes?

I was talking to a woman the other day and she was saying the thing that frustrates her the most about her migraine episodes are she has NO idea what is causing them or even where to start looking.

When she had tried to do something about it she would find contradicting info and restrictive diets.

She was scared to do something wrong and she would have an episode that would keep her in bed for days. 

It can feel overwhelming managing your migraine episodes because your body is complex and everyone's different! 

No one can use the same roadmap and there is no one size fits all model. 

The last 10 years I have worked on creating a model that helps women work out what their personal roadmap looks like. 

A roadmap that is perfect for the journey you are on. 

It helps you tune in with your body so you can use it as your guide and not your enemy because it knows exactly what you need. 

If you would like to feel good in your body and become migraine free then send me a PM as you might be a good fit for my programme ‘Get Healthy’ ♥️

Just a little thought about why it is we need to take stress seriously and start changing our approach to it.

We have these things called telomeres that sits as protective caps at the end of our chromosomes.

Through our life they shorten and at some point they become to short and we will die, this is normal ageing.

But studies show that stress causes them to shorten quicker. 

This is why we should take work stress seriously. It isn’t just about taking a week or longer off and then go back to work without finding the root cause of the stress.

Because if you don’t find the cause of your stress you will actually be shortening your life.

This is why we take bullying of kids seriously, because the stress of bullying is actually shortening the life of the child.

Nutrient deficiencies can have serious consequences for your health.

Some of the top problems for nutrient deficiencies are malabsorption, low stomach acid, poor liver and/or gallbladder health, and even infections.

It's important to note that these deficiencies show up gradually with time symptoms will get worse.

These symptoms are your body’s way of talking to you telling you to listen ♥️

If you aren’t sure what that looks like let me show you: 

One of my favourite is restless leg syndrome as it is often a sign off iron or magnesium 

If you suffer with tingling hands & feet that is often a sign off a lack of vitamin b12

Cravings for Sour food could mean a lack of vitamin c

If you have white bumps on your skin it could mean your body is lacking omega 3's

If you bruise easily then it could be you are lacking vitamin K or C

If you crave salty food cravings then your might need more sodium or potassium

The best way to prevent nutrient deficiencies is by maintaining a balanced diet rich in lots of different nutrients and some times supplementing can be necessary.

The symptoms you have are not your enemy they are signs that your body is communicating with you telling you what it needs. 

If you would like to feel good in your body and become symptom free then send me a PM as you might be a good fit for my programme ‘Get Healthy’ ♥️

Lifestyle is without a doubt what determines our health 🙌

In my job I see some remarkable transformations every single day and this is one of those.

My client had just been diagnosed with diabetes 2 and didn’t actually come to me because of that that exact symptom, he came because he wanted to live a healthier life and lose weight. 

So when he went to the nurse for his check up and found that his numbers had changed
and start to return to normal ranges just through lifestyle and mindset changes he couldn’t believe his eyes.

Diabetes 2 is an autoimmune disease so we have planned that in to his programme because it tells us a story and that story is what helps us put his health puzzle back together. 

I’m so proud of my client as he has taken this challenge by the horns and is now after 6 months seeing some unbelievable results.

♥️♥️
