The Secret of Eternal Life
Eternal life is impossible, so why not try the next best thing; a life enriched for a healthy mind, healthy body and healthy life. The pressures and expectations of living in the 21st century, the distractions, the indulgences and of course the sheer lack of time, make it increasingly harder to get fit and even harder to stay healthy. Combine this with the extreme emphasis on achieving the ‘ideal weight’, as well as the many misconceptions surrounding health in general, it is no wonder following a healthy lifestyle becomes so difficult.
What is the answer?
The first step is to make sure you don’t become carried away by setting yourself a crazy, restrictive diet and unrealistic hours of exercise. By the same token, get realistic!
Lifestyle changes are important. If you want to play hard, you’ve got to work hard (in terms of your health) and swapping to a diet coke with a large fast food meal is not going to make you feel or look any better.
Your body is under constant attack from pollution, late nights, long hours at the office and all those cocktails you’re downing at the weekend, so help it out. Nourish your body from the inside out and let your diet help you feel energised and ready for anything.
Yoga is one of my favourite tools to use with clients in order to help them focus at work, improving their clarity of mind, reducing stress and improving their body shape. Even just one session a week will help balance your hormone levels and allow your body to cleanse.
I run a Monday morning and evening class where we look to flush all the toxins out after a weekend on the town and cleanse the body. We couple this with our #meatfreemondays to give your body the kick start it needs every week.The purpose is to get people to program in their minds at least one day each week in which they do everything perfect. It’s like a spa day for your insides. As I always say, the key is balance! Just as your shopping basket needs to be varied, so does your exercise.
