The adaptability of the human body never ceases to amaze me!

My advice to clients is that self-care has to be "non-negotiable" as we get older, especially for women in peri- and post-menopause. I took my own advice! I've got the exercise covered, now Gwenright Nutrition helping me to fine tune my health for my future. Solid & practical advice, Gwen has such a depth of knowledge, but somehow manages to make it feel easy and enjoyable!!

Movement snacks! I love them.
If you would like to move more, and move well, but the idea of endless reps in a gym is not your style.... get in touch, we can create an individual approach to suit YOUR lifestyle 😉

This is such an important message for many of my clients. I often ask: What sparks joy for you? And we can build better movement habits from there. Exercise has been overcomplicated by many in the fitness world, and it doesn't need to be.
Get in touch if you want to know more about how to move well!!

This is good news...
One of the highest correlations with falls risks in elderly is being on 4 or more medications.
We are so lucky to have do many fantastic medications, but so important to moderate use.

Medical systems are set up to put people on drugs, not take them off

We've had so much rain the past six weeks... I've definitely been using it as an excuse to be more sedentary, along with mollycoddling a minor back strain.
Gave myself a "talking to" after work yesterday 😜🤪 and headed up the hill despite the rain. And it felt so GOOD!!
🤩😍🤗🌧
Moving your body is as much about mental health as physical.
Choose activity that sparks your joy 🌟

A fascinating account linking intense grief with experience of physical pain.
Over the years I have encountered several examples where acute unexplained pain were correlated with bereavement.
My role is to support pain reduction, I do not diagnose or judge: examples like this can help us recognise how complex and multifactorial pain experience can be.
Medical approaches have a long way to go in this too.

Wouldn't it be great (and evidence based, and safer), if doctors would write a prescription for exercise instead of medication?

"Exercise has similar effects on pain and function to that of oral NSAIDs and paracetamol. Given its excellent safety profile, exercise should be given more prominence in clinical care, especially in older people with comorbidity or at higher risk of adverse events related to NSAIDs and paracetamol"

Objective Clinical guidelines recommend exercise as a core treatment for knee or hip osteoarthritis (OA). However, how its analgesic effect compares to analgesics, for example, oral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and paracetamol—the most commonly used analgesics for OA, remains unk...

"Interoception" is putting attention inside your body.
"Exteroception" is putting attention outside your body.
This video by a neuroscientist, details a nifty way to use these to settle your focus.
A pleasant interlude in the Christmas wind-up! Enjoy 😉
