However, amidst the hustle and bustle of Christmas preparations, it's easy to forget one essential person on your gift list—you! This December, let's unwrap the gift of self-care and make it a priority. Here's your guide to infusing wellness into your Christmas celebrations. 1. Prioritise
Embrace the Chill! Why being active in winter is so important. If, like me, you have a tendency to be a bit of a fair-weather exerciser, now is a good time to remind ourselves why being active in winter is so crucial to support both physical and mental well-being.

What is the best way to lose weight? What should I be doing to get rid of my tummy? How can I tone up? As a PT, these are just a few of the questions I get asked. And this comes not just from clients that pay me to help them achieve their goals but also friends and family. It is so

I was always an all or nothing girl. In pretty much every respect, but especially from a health and fitness point of view.
