Are you "back to normal" yet?

Life might have felt a bit overwhelming, perhaps for longer than we expected. Sometimes we need a little bit of self-care to get ourselves back on track and ready to enjoy being with friends and family, whether in person or remotely. Why not book yourself in for a relaxation session, recover that sense of calm control? https://calendly.com/movemountainshypno

It's lovely when you get a message like this from a client's supporter: "Just been with [insert client name here], what a dramatic change for the good. You are a miracle worker!"

In my personal life I belong to a fitness group on FB and today someone posted her reflections on and reactions to something someone had once posted elsewhere - "Don't quit from the couch." She's coming from a weight-loss, health perspective yet the principle applies to any goal or target we set. Don't give up when you're not doing whatever it is you said you'd do. If you've decided to go walking, go. Even when you arrive at the park where you thought you'd go walking, you can turn around and go home. But once you have got there, you may as well walk a bit. And so she progressed, little by little, extending her performance at her own rate. The lesson is: quit while you're doing it if you want, but don't quit from the couch.

Her post is beautifully written, personal, emotional, thought-provoking and well worth a read in its own right. The link is below and I have her permission to share it, I think you have to join the group tho to see it.

I'm just watching the BBC Four TV show Dog Tales: the Making of Man's Best Friend. Among other things, Episode 1 discusses the age-old debate, did early humans tame wolves into dogs, or did early wolves choose to live with and adapt around early humans? The answer? lt was the wolves 😀 and to quote, "survival of the fittest turned out to be survival of the friendliest." And that's true for us too, social interaction is crucial to our health and wellbeing, even small things like nodding a thank-you to a stranger in the supermarket makes us feel better.

Have you gained weight during lockdown? This study estimates about 29% of us have. When we're challenged, especially by the unknown, we can react by eating. It's a primitive response prompting us to take on more fuel in case we need it. You can override it! First consultation is free of charge, let's talk about it and get the real you back!

‍According to the latest research from the COVID Symptom Study app, almost a third of those surveyed gained weight since March 2020. Lean more about the results from our diet and lifestyle survey.

Great blogpost about the importance of noticing good things in your life. We call this "What's Been Good?"

Do you take the good things in life for granted? You’re not alone, and studies show it's very human. But here’s a way to find more joy in the everyday.

Good to see the Prince of Wales endorsing social prescription. Watch out for this, it's coming, it may already be happening near you. Social prescription is where GP surgeries can "prescribe," that is, advise and refer socially isolated people to day centres, activities and so on in their area that will help them meet other people. And now more than ever, we know just how debilitating being on your own can be, day after day after day. Don't be afraid to ask!

The Prince of Wales says there are 'so many other interventions that can contribute to our health and healing'
