MONDAY MOTIVATION.. it's all about finding what sport/exercise puts a smile on your face! And enjoying it with your buddies, or even a new group of strangers...
.
Working out with a friend or in a group environment is proven to push you harder and keep the motivation up. Accountability can really help you stick to a routine, so if you've been putting a workout off and letting yourself off the hook, arrange a session with a friend or a group next time!
.
It's so rewarding for us to see groups of individuals from all over the world, bond, support & encourage eachother, laugh and help motivate one another. Arriving as complete strangers, but leaving as friends! 💙💪🏼🙌 #tuscanyretreat #tuscany

INJURY IS A DIRTY WORD. It evokes fear in every cell in our bodies. It can damage the human spirit in profound ways. 💡
💡
Repetition kills you. The best way to avoid injury is to cross train. MORE IS NOT MORE, LESS IS NOT MORE, MIXING IT UP IS MORE. Variety really is the spice of life and there are a plethora of irrefutable benefits of X training for both mind and body. 😇

X training is not just for old people. It helps avoid injuries that arise from the overuse of certain muscles. It improves posture and coordination and removes imbalances from the body. But crucially it actually is performance enhancing as it allows you to gain a greater range of movement, more strength and overall fitness. Sign me up! 🏃‍♀️
🧘‍♂️
💪🏻 Our ski fit days throughout the winter designed consciously to mix it up. The day involves 3 hrs uphill ski touring in the morning, then the afternoon is a HIIT class at 2200 and then hanging upside down in a hammock with aerial yoga. You will work all aspects of your fitness; endurance, speed, agility, flexibility and strength and explore the mountains in a fun new way. What’s not to love? 😘

What is yoga? There are so many different styles, it's easy to get confused. ✌️
💡

Yoga comes from the Sanskrit language of ancient India. The word yoga comes from the work ‘yuj’ which means yoke, to join or unite. Yoga represents uniting all aspects of the individual; mind, body and spirit to bring about a balanced and happy life. Yoga is the scientific art of remembering our true nature with the aim to create a balanced and happy life. 🤩
In the west is often just a reflection of the ‘asana’ which are the physical postures. The asanas are only one of the 8 limbs of yoga. The other limbs focus more on your mental and spiritual well being which has equal importance. 🧘‍♀️🧘‍♀️
🧘‍♀️🧘‍♀️
BKS Iyengar says yoga is ‘meditation in action’. Last weekend at the ‘Movement and mind’ conference I was fortunate enough to listen to the director of research at Headspace spoke about how meditation activates the autonomic nervous system and promotes the relaxation response. Yoga has also been shown across a huge range of studies to actually reduce the size of the right amygdala. The amygdala is often englarded in people with mental health problems. It controls emotions and particularly the fear response; regular practice of yoga has been shown to reduce the right amygdala. Ye ha no more ruminative thoughts!
🧘‍♀️✌️ In summary, yoga is not a work out it’s a work in. This is the point of spiritual practice; to open up our hearts and make us aware so that we can know what we already know and be who we already are.

HAPPY WORLD MENTAL HEALTH DAY!! 😍 Last weekend Co founder Emma was lucky enough to attend the British Society of Lifestyle Medicines conference on “movement and the mind’ created by @drlucyloveday .It showcased pioneering, international and multidisciplinary research from leaders in psychiatry, psychology, neuro imaging and doctors, passionate about mental health. The great news is; exercise really is the best medicine. .
.
.
.

The statistics are shocking. 1 in 4 people will suffer with either stress, anxiety, depression or more at some point. In 2017 there were 63.5 million prescriptions for mental health in the UK alone. Horrifyingly suicide is the leading cause of death for people under 35 and even more terrifying its that millenials are the first generation in history who are more likely to harm themselves than anyone else.

It might seem self evident but really exercise is a magic pill. Just a non profitable one to pharmaceutical giants so the funding behind the research has obviously been massively limited as there is no dollar to be made in a country walk! However this serious epidemic in mental health is prompting some specialists to get behind this research. Huge amounts of evidence unambiguously portrays that exercise can reduce depression, anxiety and stress without any adverse side effects.
.

It doesn’t have to be an ultra marathon, just simply walking 1 hr a day significantly helps reduce your risk of stress, anxiety and depression. The whole point is that exercise should be seen as a daily dose to keeping well, just as you brush your teeth daily you should move! It can be dancing, walking, yoga, running, whatever floats your boat but the key is to move more and move throughout the day.
