Something Is Better Than Nothing 🏃‍♂️💪
When it comes to exercise, perfection isn't the goal — consistency is. Maybe you don’t have an hour for the gym, or even know where to start with exercise. A 10-minute walk, a few stretches, or a quick bodyweight circuit still counts.
That short burst of movement
boosts your mood, supports your health, and builds momentum.
Remember:
Some movement always beats no movement.
Keep it simple. Keep it going.

Sitting Too Much? Your Body Feels It!
As a massage therapist, we see this regularly back pain, tight hips, stiff necks
Often caused by sitting for too long.
Here’s how to help your body out:
✅ Stand up every 30–45 mins
✅ Stretch or walk for 1–2 mins
✅ Use a standing desk or mix up positions
✅ Move during calls
✅ Hydrate often (bonus: you’ll need to get up more!)
Your body was made to move—don’t let sitting be the reason you’re in pain.

A sign of hope for those impacted by cancer. Funds raised go to cancer research, prevention programs, support services, and the current stats show 1 in 3 New Zealanders will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. A cause well worth supporting.
