Pucker up your pelvic floor

Pucker up your pelvic floor this Valentine’s Day It’s true, I did almost spill my herbal tea when Diane, one of my lovely Arbonne team and a physiotherapist started chatting with me about puckering up my pelvic floor for Valentine’s day. Really! Was I actually having this conversation in a public space? But when you think about it, this is exactly the sort of conversation what we, as modern women, should be having. Our sexual health is in our hands (no pun intended!) and we need to be open about what we need to help improve it. So it turns out that physiotherapists who specialise in pelvic

Tired all the time?

Are you one of the thousands of women who are Tired All The Time? According to statistics, we’re in the grips of an energy crisis. 20% of women are said to have suffered with fatigue that lasts for at least a month. A fifth of us say we don’t shower daily, purely because we’re too tired, and records show that 10% of GP appointments are to investigate unexplained tiredness. Doctors even have a term for it: Tired All The Time (TATT).

Live your greatest life with this one day event

One of the things I love about working with Wellbeing Clients is the growth that they experience in all areas of their life as they start to take a more holistic approach to their health and wellbeing. When I first joined Arbonne as an Independent Consultant, they taught me about the power of personal learning and it is something I have fully embraced. We now have so much information at our fingertips it can be hard to know where to start and so I have been working with Keith Kochner. An amazing International Speaker, Coach and Mentor, and I’m excited to be able to share his philosophy with

Beating the 3pm slump

It’s 3pm and my energy has just disappeared. Sound familiar? If you regularly feel that you’re lacking energy and need to reach for a pick me up then read on, I may have the answer. That was me a few years ago. I would crash about 3pm, just before I was about to do the school run, or when in the office while I still had a mountain of paperwork still to complete. I still get the odd 3pm slump but they are less frequent and less likely to send me into a tail spin of bad eating and moodiness which unsurprisingly no one benefits from. So what have I changed to ensure I feel more energised

My guide to clean eating

So you’re interested in eating clean. It seems to be a new buzz word and about time too. When we see food as medicine, rather than simply fuel for our bodies, then our whole attitude to eating changes and with it our health, our sleep patterns, our energy levels and our weight! How do I know all this? Because I’ve been on quite a transformational journey to better health myself over the last few years. To be honest when one of my friends from Arbonne, (the Health and Wellness business I ran alongside my design business for 3 years and now run alone), asked me if I’d join her on a family Detox
