Thriving Lifestyles

Thriving Lifestyles Thriving Lifestyles is all about creating YOUR own version of your healthy lifestyle. Focussing on w We all have a choice, and we choose to Thrive!

Thriving Lifestyles represents a movement of healthy living that aspires to help women create their lifestyle that works for them, on their terms, their way! We promote the basics that help women to engage in life long participation of healthy living. We are advocates for the process of thriving, rather than the fast attained and quickly lost results that many of us strive for. Thriving Lifestyles has a core focus on improving the life that we already have. To work with what we've been given and turn it into something that we can be proud of and excited to get up out of bed for! We understand that everyone is dealing with their own struggles and no two women are the same. We also know that there are fundamental requirements to living a healthy lifestyle such as regular exercise, healthy eating, adequate sleep, hydration, rest and many other basic lifestyle habits that simply go unnoticed and are merely undervalued and under utilised.

​

It is for this reason that it has been out mission to bring these fundamentals back into fashion and empower women to implement them on a daily basis so they can prevent, control and even overcome their health conditions, injuries or illnesses so they can enjoy a fulfilling, exciting and active life that's created on their terms! We help you discover what a healthy lifestyle means to you, and support you to achieve it.

​

You see, when we struggle with areas of our life that we wish were better, like our weight, happiness, health, fitness, stress or any other areas of our lives, we often overlook our habits, behaviours and routines that usually get us to this point in the first place!

​

We believe that everyone's answers are already within them, we help women that are struggling to find those answers to figure them out themselves and get the results they deserve! No one should feel tired, crappy, frustrated, lethargic, stressed, unmotivated or unhappy every day, yet many do.! Which is why we are creating this movement, and why we want you to jump on board too. Thriving Lifestyles is not a program or a 'short term solution'. It is a movement of healthy living and it's founded on what works for you! Our Thrive Movement allows us to guide women to change and remove the habits and routines that shape our lives now, and create new ones to support the ideal life we want to have. We help find balance, transform habits and create a thriving mindset that allows us to achieve our goals. We do this by taking out the overwhelm of 'quick fixes' that no one can stick to. We take it slow and make it meaningful by matching it up with individual, personal goals. Let's create your healthy lifestyle!

Little jobs with new perspectives.

I once struggled to include Jack on simple jobs or tasks that I just wanted to get done. Even though he is always keen to help and do it with me.
All this time I was robbing him of key learning moments doing things he didn’t yet know how to do.
Now, Jack is involved in everything! He is so clever and learns really fast at even the smallest of jobs that seem irrelevant to me. They are big to him!
I once read a quote, ‘if it matters, take your time’. This property needs a lot of work and it’s easy to tackle jobs for the sake of getting them done. But, it really does matter to us and we are learning to take our time.
Jack always says ‘this is home school’ and he is right! Everything is growth here :)

Gym update - we have been slowly progressing with the gym lately.
The old shed we thought we would turn into a gym has completely been rated by termites. So, we are building a new one out of steel 😜

Concrete pour soon, then frame :)

10 Years Ago Today Our Lives Changed Forever… for the better!

The 10th of July, 2015 I was officially diagnosed with MS.

I had just turned 26 and I remember it like it was yesterday when the Neurologist said to me, ‘What kind of a mother do you want to be? Do you want to be in a wheelchair in 10 years…’ if only he could see me now, what would he say?

From the beginning, we went down to Melbourne for regular scans and appointments to repeatedly be told that I needed to be medicated, and that everything I was doing with diet changes (removing gluten, dairy and refined sugars) and making improvements to my lifestyle (less stress and regular exercise) had no clinical impact on the disease.

They all disregarded and gave no credit to our improved lifestyle and the changes we had made, despite the undeniable reduction in lesions on my brain which were visible on brain scans. The changes were huge and I was feeling better than ever! Over the span of only a few years, I no longer had any new lesions at all. Indicating no activity of MS what so ever. The disease was gone! How could all that really not count for anything?

10 years on, no episodes or symptoms since my first, big changes in our lives, reducing stress, nutrition, 2 beautiful kids and a life we continue to thrive in!

We are so proud of what we have created for our lives since then and Dave has been by my side from the very beginning and I couldn’t ask for anything more.

A lesson I truely believe in out of all this is that we have so much more power over our health than we realise. Disease is created from dis-ease. By creating a thriving environment, we can remove the ‘dis’ and live in ease!
