On the 10th October (World Mental Health Day), we saw a lot of online presence and awareness being raised through social media around the topic of mental health.

What is a cheat meal? You may or may not have heard the term ‘cheat meal’ when it comes to healthy eating plans. Cheat meals are the name given for an ‘off plan meal’.

October ALREADY.. How did that happen!? We LOVE Autumn, it’s not quite cold enough to stop wearing our Gluteywear shorts... but is quite cold enough to get away with oversized hoodies and leggings for the majority of the time!

I recently came across a brand called Glutey wear via a friend of mine Amy Quine (check her out, she is an amazing personal trainer and fitness model, her page inspires me every day).

The demand for organic food has risen over the past few years and more organic items are being sold and purchased in the supermarkets.

We can be really hard on ourselves. I’m a woman, I get it. I work with many many women who struggle with self-acceptance and who, quite frankly, care way too much about trivial matters.

Having a goal is good. Target-setting is healthy. Challenges are empowering. There’s no doubt about it – having a passion and feeling driven by something adds an element of excitement to your life.

When a physique or training goal is set, dedication and focus are paramount to succeeding so nothing can be overlooked. Whilst it might not be super glam, it certainly pays to be prepared with your nutrition.

Having a positive mindset is one of best things for us and our wellbeing but it’s not always consistent or easy to achieve. It sort of comes and goes depending on the circumstances and people around us, and we have to work at keeping it.

There is often some controversy around smoothies and whether they are healthy or a useful weight loss aid. My main thought is that we shouldn’t get them confused with juicing.

The more I work with women, the more I notice how self-deprecating we can be. For this reason, I felt compelled to write about the feelings / emotions we might experience which arise from the way we treat ourselves, but more importantly, how we can avoid this by developing a deeper love for ourselves.

Getting an adequate range of vitamins and minerals is essential for health and as females, we are often at risk of falling short. The consequences of this could feel as minimal as being tired or low on energy but if we are seriously deprived for some time, symptoms can be much more severe.
