Ep 13: Movement

Today we discuss the great topic of Movement and Exercise. We like using the word movement over exercise as this is what is more important, rather than trying to chase or keep up with our generalised idea of mainstream exercise.

We share how exercise is a primary food which means it has a direct impact on our health more than food itself. It has the power to not only transform your physical state but also your mental and emotional state of being.

We encourage you to get creative, have fun and nurture this area of your self-care in a way that serves you by setting yourself up to succeed. Placing yourself in the best environment for you and also tuning into what type of movement best suits you, your body and the season of life you are currently experiencing.

Movement is so unique for everyone and changes day to day. Honour and discover what works for you, while removing judgment and expectations of how it should be done.

In other words, make it FUN!

Ep 12: Sleep

Today's chat is a super important conversation around sleep. The quality of your sleep and how much you get is a crucial part of self-care and good health.

As we chat, we hope you start to have a closer awareness of your sleep patterns and pinpoint areas that may be affecting the quality of your sleep. With simple suggestions to incorporate into your evening routine that may help set you up for a restful night's sleep.

We talk about different reasons that can affect good sleep, how and why it can change the way our body unwinds before we go to sleep, and provide you with some simple effective tools that we have noticed are really helpful for good night routines.

Ep 11: Grounding

In today’s episode, we discuss the power and science of Grounding, also known as Earthing. How it works and why it is such a holistic health game changer.

Grounding is a true science and once understood properly you will be running out the door to plant your feet on the grass, get to your nearest beach or forest, and collaborate with Mother Nature to get back into tune with yourself, your flow, and your bodi’s optimal state.

Tune in with us as we share our own personal experiences with grounding and the impact it can have on your mental, physical, and spiritual well-being.

Ep 10: Breathing

In this episode, we talk about the incredible practice of breathwork and the awareness of breathing.

This tool is not to be underestimated. The power of the breath is connected to so many areas of our health and well-being, and can literally put the body into a state of healing when used consciously.

We discuss different types of breath work, the benefits of mindful breathing, being conscious of your breath, and take you through a little exercise with us at the end.

Even if you only walk away with the awareness of how you are breathing and how you would like to breathe, this is a huge realisation.

Join us as we highlight the power of breath and breathe life back into your body.
