Have you ever tried eating seasonal fruit and vegetables rather than the same things throughout the year? If you haven’t, giv

Different fruit and vegetables flourish at different times of the year, and eating them when they’re in season offers increased nutrient density and freshness, along with a more natural favour. Eating with the seasons also means that there’s plenty of variety all year-round, meaning you can try lots of different recipes.

Eating seasonally also supports local communities, economies and producers. It’s good for the environment by reducing the distance that food needs to be transported, lowering carbon emissions, and often doesn’t require preservatives because it goes from picking to plate more quickly too.

Align with your body’s natural needs throughout the year, and be sustainable to the planet at the same time. It’s an easy way to make your diet more varied, more nutritious, and more flavoursome.

If you're struggling with finding foods that suit your system have a chat with your local kinesiologist and get the lowdown on what works best for your body. Find your local practitioner at www.kinesiologyfederation.co.uk/search

Everyone likes a cup of tea, or so it seems. But how many of you know that herbal teas offer health-promoting properties and can be good for you? In fact, they’ve been used as natural remedies for centuries. We’re not talking about some sugary drinks that you can buy in shops. We mean traditional herbal teas, tisanes, which are blends or infusions of dried fruits, flowers, spices or herbs in water.

Studies have shown that certain teas can boost your immune system, fight inflammation and support cardiovascular health amongst other things. It’s because of the specific antioxidants found in tea. Why not see if there’s a herbal tea for you?

Remember to always buy from a reputable source, and drink in moderation. Some herbal teas can interact with specific medications so make sure you take professional advice if you’re unsure or are concerned about health conditions.

Reducing your caffeine intake can also support the impact of other therapies and activities so ask your local Professional Kinesiologist if they can recommend the best ones to support your well being journey.

How often do you visit a forest? Aside from the enjoyment and visual stimulation of being closer to nature, there are genuine health benefits in regular visits to forests, known as forest bathing.

Have you ever heard the term phytoncides? You’d be forgiven if you haven’t. Think of them as tree essential oils that have medicinal properties. They are one of the main benefits of forest bathing.

Studies have shown that if you visit forests regularly you could experience health benefits including reducing stress levels and boosting immune function, as well improvements to a range of other lifestyle-induced illnesses.

Our tip number 12 is to try forest bathing. Get outside and breathe in the fresh phytoncide-filled air. It’s a fantastic way to promote your health and wellbeing.

Kinesiology is another wonderful way to support your body and mind, especially if you find yourself overstimulated in the 'busyness' of the modern world. Visit www.kinesiologyfederation.co.uk/search to find a practitioner local to you.

Are you a fast eater?

We all know who in our family is the one whose plate will be empty before anyone else has barely started. Maybe it’s you? It’s actually a common habit for many people, made worse by busy lives and people often rushing from one thing to another.

It’s not a joke though. Eating slowly has been shown to be better for your health than eating quickly.

It takes about 20 minutes for your brain to register that you’re full, so slowing your eating pace lets your body register fullness signals from your brain. This can help to control calorie intake and weight management. It also gives you more time to chew and break down food, which can help improve nutrient absorption and reduce problems like bloating, indigestion and heartburn.

Try pausing throughout your meal, chew your food more mindfully and thoroughly before swallowing, and give your body the chance to know when it’s full.

It’ll give you greater enjoyment and appreciation of the food that you’re eating too!

Give tip number 11 a try. Eat slowly and if you find that a challenge contact your local kinesiology practitioner at www.kinesiologyfederation.co.uk/searchto help you redefine your relationship with food.

In a world dominated by phones and computers, many of us rarely actually write anything.

Our tip number 10 is therefore to write something. By writing, we mean physically writing something with a pen or pencil. Typing emails doesn’t count!

Writing by hand isn’t a nostalgic skill which we don’t need in our everyday lives, it’s more stimulating for the brain than writing on computer. There’s lots of evidence that it has psychological benefits. It increases brain connectivity and keeps your mind active. If you write a diary or journal it can help you gather your thoughts and process life’s emotional ups and downs too. This can support positive wellbeing.

So whether you write a diary or journal, or something more creative, the benefits to your wellbeing could be surprising.

Remember too, that the physical action of writing is also good for maintaining dexterity, and engaging the fine motor system has positive effects on learning and memory.

Stretching isn’t just something which sports men and women do. We should all be doing it regularly, ideally daily, whatever our age.

Stretching is important in keeping our muscles flexible and healthy, and the increased flexibility helps us maintain motion in our joints. It can also help to release tension. If our muscles shorten and become tight then our mobility suffers, and we risk injures, strains and joint pain.

Our tip number 9 is to develop a stretching routine to fit into your day.

Now don’t feel overwhelmed. Aim for a couple of days a week, and work from there. Start with the areas which are key to mobility, such as your hamstrings and calves and hip flexors. Shoulders, neck and lower back are all important too. Focus on the areas which you feel need attention most.

It’s important to get the blood flowing in the muscles a bit first before stretching, else you might hurt them. Warm muscles are more pliable and receptive to being stretched. A quick walk is enough, and perhaps you could combine this tip with our tip number 1 which was to go for a walk.

Hold your stretch for about 30 seconds, or build up to that. Keep breathing and be aware of your back, neck and shoulders to prevent injury from twisting badly. Don’t bounce or do anything sharp, which could cause injury. You can do stretches seated too if it’s easier for you.

You should feel a little tension as you stretch, but nothing more. If you feel any pain or discomfort, or if you’re not sure what to do, then consult a suitably qualified healthcare professional who will help you with any advice or concerns.

Your local kinesiology practitioner knows a great deal about the impact of muscle tension on your physical and emotional health so, if you find you just can't stretch like you used to or notice that you seem to be holding a lot of tension in your body, visit www.kinesiologyfederation.co.uk/search and let them help you stretch back into life.

Most of us will have heard the phrase ‘eat your vegetables’ when we were children. As adults we may even say the same to our children, although raw food might seem a step too far. Governments tell us to eat 5 portions of fruit and vegetables a day however we choose to prepare them. To some of us, these things are a natural part of our everyday diet. To others, it’s something that feels like too much hassle in a world where fast, processed foods are so readily available.

Tip number 8 is to try introducing raw foods into your diet. When it comes to eating raw foods start small. Why not begin by choosing one day per week, or one meal a week, which consists off raw food. By raw food, we mean uncooked and unprocessed foods, which will mainly be plant based foods. It might seem daunting, but if you lead a busy life with work and family then it’ll even save time on cooking, as well as costing you less due to not needing to be cooked. With the weather getting warmer it’s often nice to have something which isn’t cooked too. There’s plenty of inspiration for recipes available, so you can’t make the excuse of it being boring or not knowing what to try.

If you can give it a go, then the health benefits could be significant as part of a balanced diet. Better gut health, increased energy, and weight loss are some potential benefits, as well as being kind to the environment, especially if you buy local produce.

Remember though, that some vegetables need to be cooked. Don’t go eating a raw potato! And if you’re going to make any significant changes to your diet it’s always better to consult a suitably qualified healthcare professional for advice and guidance.

If you feel you have issues with food that may be upsetting your system, contact a kinesiologist and book yourself a food sensitivity testing session, and find out what foods are adding additional stress to your load.

Life can be hectic at times, and we can get swept along by work and other commitments.

It’s important to find time to pause, focus on grounding, awareness and breathing. A sensory reset. Try taking a step away from from work, problems, social media and other distractions, and bring calmness and clarity. Bring yourself back to the present moment.

Tip number 7 is to build mindfulness breaks into your day. They can help to reduce stress, enhance mental wellbeing and relax the body. Maybe you just need to take a breath. Maybe a few moments to connect with your environment through your senses. Maybe some time to sit and think about how you’re feeling about something that's going on.

Mindfulness can involve breathing methods, guided imagery, and other practices to relax the body and mind and help reduce stress. Find a simple mindfulness exercise that works for you. Many can be practiced anywhere and anytime. Research indicates that engaging your senses outdoors is especially beneficial. Some mindfulness exercises may need you to set aside time when you can be in a quiet place without distractions or interruptions. These could involve walking, sitting or body scan. Perhaps practice this type of exercise early in the morning before you begin your daily routine.

If you need help to find your calm, amid the chaos, connect with a Professional Kinesiology Practitioner near you at www.kinesiologyfederation.co.uk/search
