💧Hydration

It’s vital for our bodies to function properly; however with temperatures due to rise over the next few days, I thought I’d highlight how imperative it is and that it’s easy to overlook.☺️

💧Staying hydrated is essential because water makes up more than half of the human body and supports nearly every bodily function. It helps regulate body temperature, supports kidney function and waste removal, lubricates joints, and helps transport nutrients and oxygen throughout the body.

💧As you age, your brain’s natural thirst signals diminish. By the time you actually feel thirsty over the age of 60, your body is already experiencing early stages of dehydration.

💧Upon waking in the morning, it is recommended to replenish fluids, as we are naturally slightly dehydrated.

💧So, try to carry a bottle of water with you, and take small sips, rather than downing large volumes in one go! If you exercise, or on warmer days, make a point of replenishing more frequently.☺️

☺️I love it when clients fall asleep!
It means their parasympathetic nervous system has engaged, they feel safe, secure and completely relaxed.
Please, never apologise for falling asleep (or snoring!🤭).

💆🏻‍♀️Stress doesn’t just live in the mind, it shows up in the body too.
Chronic stress can affect sleep, digestion, immunity, hormones, memory, and even heart health.
Tight shoulders, headaches, fatigue, brain fog and burnout are often the body asking for rest, balance and care.
Slowing down isn’t laziness: sometimes it’s necessary maintenance for the nervous system.🫶🏼

“Self care isn’t selfish” is an overused trope, however I have to agree with the sentiment. Prioritising our health and wellbeing is paramount!🫶🏼
