This is me. This is not who I used to be
I used to do everything in my power to skip PE at school, hated (and still do) the idea of the gym and generally preferred my sofa to my trainers.
Until I made a commitment earlier this year to go back to running and get better at it.
Until at a vitality retreat in June I made a commitment to…
Big weight questions answered
The world of weight loss is full of confusion, conflicting information and fear. I talk to so many women who are never satisfied with the number on the scale, never satisfied with the way they look and they wait to start living their lives when…. they hit the target number, when they buy the smallest pair of jeans, when….
They often have many questions because as I said before the…
If I was in my ideal body….
Last week I asked you what would you do if you were in your ideal body and you answered so openly and thoughtfully.
Here are some answers I received:
- I would do a skydive for charity
- Buy and wear some super sexy hot dresses
- Book a boudoir shoot
- Run a 10k
- Walk around the house naked
- Keep wearing a bikini on holiday/ at the spa – I believed I was…
What would you do if…
Today I want to keep it short and sweet and actually give you homework.
Get your journal out (just pen and paper will do too, so don’t look for excuses here) and answer this question:
If I was in my ideal body what would I do this year?
This is it – just one question to explore and journal about. And please share in the comments so I can support you.
Sick of diets
Thank you Jennifer Lawrence.

What do you think? I would love for you to share your thoughts.

My Dear Body – an apology letter
For years I’ve had resistance to talking about my Body. I’ve done a lot of work on body image, self-love (I used to roll my eyes at that term) and today I am sharing something deeply personal. An apology letter I wrote to my Body.
Hi My Dear Body,
I am writing this long overdue letter to apologise to you, and I am sorry it took me so long to actually…
Would you listen if I told you what I need?
If your body told you what She needs would you listen? Would you pay attention? Would you actually do what She is asking for or would you override Her because you know better?
My main goal every day is to be nice to my body. Do I always succeed? Hell no! I fail probably most days, but I keep trying.
I didn’t sleep well last night and this morning I was…
Body Love
Up until couple of months ago I used to refer to my body as IT, until I learnt to call my body SHE. It is a small, subtle change but boy was it significant. It changed the way I look at my body; it made her more real, deserving more attention and made me realize that together we are a team. It is not me running this show on…
