Went to a great book launch in Kingscliff recently in support of local author Tim Jack Adams. His newly released book ENERGISED is a great resource for anyone seeking to recharge their mental, physical and emotional battery.
"In this refreshing and profoundly genuine book, wellness leader Tim Jack Adams introduces a powerful, easy-to-follow framework that shows you how to rebuild your energy reserves from the inside out. Working across eight core areas of wellness — purpose, sleep, physical health, nutrition, mindset, fun, relationships and friendships — this isn’t about adding more to your plate, it’s about creating a sustainable foundation for everything you do".
I find this book to be a great resource and have been recommending it to clients. The book and website contain a link to a "battery check" which you can use to check your own wellbeing - and also check in with others.
Thanks Tim, love your work and wish you all the best with your continued endeavours to improve peoples' lives through sustainable wellbeing and connected leadership practices.

Aaawww, love this post and love my doggies! Explains the loyalty and unconditional love that we constantly get back from them !! Forever thankful to have dogs in my life !! 💞 🥰

MRI studies have revealed something amazing about dogs. Their love for their owners goes beyond food, toys, or even other dogs. Scientists discovered that when a dog smells its owner, a special part of its brain actually lights up more than it does when the dog smells food or another animal.

This part of the brain, called the caudate nucleus, is connected to feelings of love and reward. The reaction is so strong that it shows dogs aren’t just recognizing a familiar scent, they’re feeling joy and affection.

It proves that when our dogs look at us or come running to greet us, it’s not just habit. Deep inside their brains, they truly love us, in a way that’s powerful and real.

Benefits - Hot Sauna then Cold Plunge :)
We recently visited the South Island of NZ and found a “secret sauna” by the lake. We spent an hour alternating between hot saunas (90 degees for approx. 15 minutes) and cold plunges in the lake (approx. 30 seconds in an icy 8 degrees!). The temperatures felt extreme but we felt pretty amazing afterwards, prompting me to find out more about the benefits of such practices!!
Benefits include:
•Circulation and vascular health: Sauna heat causes vasodilation, a widening of the blood vessels, increasing blood flow to the skin and muscles. Cold plunges cause vasoconstriction, a narrowing of the blood vessels, moving blood back toward the core. The alternating pattern can train the vascular system to respond quickly to temperature shifts and support overall vascular function.
•Muscle recovery and performance: heat relaxes tight/stiff muscles and helps to ease tension after training. Cold reduces inflammation and soreness. The combination may enhance perceived recovery, particularly for athletes integrating hard training blocks or post-workout recovery.
•Pain relief and relaxation: eased muscular tension with a calming contrast. The contrast can create a sense of pain relief and improved comfort in sore areas.
•Nervous system mood and effects - the contrast between heat and cold helps to promote parasympathetic activation, promoting relaxation and stress reduction.
•Sleep: relaxation and cooling afterward can aid sleep for some.
Some safety tips include :
•Start gradually: shorter times, milder temperatures and build up gradually
•Watch for symptoms: stop if you feel dizzy, faint, or experience any chest pain.
•Hydrate well before and after use
•Contraindications include pregnancy, heart conditions or fever/illness.
This experience and knowledge has got me researching facilities in my local area!
Would love to hear any of your own experiences in the comments below
Yours in good health,
