MAGNESIUM WHY WE NEED MORE OF IT IN OUR DAILY LIVES

Magnesium is our well known yet underrated, essential mineral (meaning we need to obtain it through diet) which is vital for the proper function of every cell in the body.

Most of us don’t know that we are lacking in this, however we know that topping up our stores can make a significant different to our overall wellbeing especially if we have noticed we have had a little more nervous energy, lack of sleep, unexplained headaches and even heart palpitations.

It is needed for over 600 cellular reactions in the body, and If there is any one key nutrient that literally everyone needs more of, it’s this!

There is one thing I know for certain… sleep rules my life. When my sleep is poor, it shows. And no amount of caffeinated beverages (or otherwise) can make up for it. We spend almost half of our lives in restful slumber; precious hours when our brains are able to process everything from that day; ...

There has been a shift towards finding that perfect way to move our bodies as we found ourselves in and out of lockdowns, and exploring different ways to feel good and improve our health especially our mental health. Some of us once were gym junkies, now loving our virtual Pilates class where we can simply roll out of bed straight onto the mat at 6am, or maybe switching the yoga studio for longer walks in the sunshine and fresh air. Or maybe your needs have changed moving into a new life stage and running 10kms everyday no longer serves your joints, and more weight bearing exercise does?

Everything happens for a reason right? Whatever movement we gravitated towards, our exercise habits have changed and so have our attitudes towards health – big pat on the back for us! This isn’t about being the latest trend, it’s just about adapting and listening to our bodies. What we needed to be doing all along!

Pushing our bodies beyond its limits, without supplying it with sufficient energy is old news and we now know, is not going to get you closer to your goals. In fact, at a certain point it actually starts to work against you especially if you’re running on stress hormones for energy. In that case you start to stagnate and head towards total exhaustion and low-grade inflammation.

Research has shown that (continue reading here https://thiswildlinglife.com/move/fitness-move/fueling-for-exercise

The year has well and truly started with a bang (some good, some not so good…) and more than ever, importantly to try set some goals towards a more sustainable life. Sustainability is something we can get the whole friends and family involved with and set us up with habits that will last a lifetime. And you don’t need to be a tie die loving, chicken coop keeping human to do any of it!

There is so much that we cannot control, what we can do is direct our energy into doing what we can in our immediate environment and within our power to reduce waste and plastic use as our planet needs us more than ever!

The best part about it is every one person pitching in even a little bit has a collective positive impact, what’s the saying? “The greatest threat to our planet is the belief that someone else will save it”, and we don’t need a handful of people to be perfect at it, we need millions of people doing something about it imperfectly.

Just saying…

We’re often so consumed about what we eat – the chemicals, where its grown, is it local/organic, fresh, seasonal, over processed (the list could go on) but we often forget about what we’re drinking. Now we’re not just talking about the quality of water or telling you to put down the soft drink (obvs’), but we’re talking things you presume is a 100% healthy option, like herbal teas.

Now let’s just start by saying herbal teas are an amazing way to get a safe dose of medicinal medicine in every sip – helping a variety of things from digestion, help sugar cravings, aid with your sleep or stress and even the quality of your skin, but, did you know that a number of herbal teas out there have a secret? A kinda unnecessary dirty one at that – hiding an array of additives, flavourings and preservatives hanging out in small print on the ingredient list? Yep, even that really popular brand you love. I was actually taken back when one of Australians most loved and cool tea brands have all of these sin bin items in a majority of their blends.
