Well I never thought I’d ever get round to runni Well I never thought I’d ever get round to running 5k. I’ve never been a runner in fact I’ve always tried to avoid it as much as possible and never quite got why people enjoyed it so much. But I do love a challenge! Well after completing the @_couchto5k challenge I’m hooked and I really enjoy it. During lockdown one of my goals was to improve my fitness levels. I had the app on my phone for about 2 years but just couldn’t get I can’t recommend it enough. It starts very gradually so is perfect for complete beginners and I loved having Laura motivating me when things progressed and got a bit tougher. There are lots of tips and advice and also a chat forum where you can share your experience and hear about others. And it’s free and you can do it anywhere. I choose to run in green spaces with my favourite music on and I totally switch off. Fitness and exercise isn’t just about weight loss it’s so much more than that. It’s about •strength and stamina •increasing your energy levels •improving your sleep quality •improving your well-being and mental health •Reducing stress levels And so much more. Just choose something you enjoy. So what’s next? Well even though I’ve completed the challenge it’s got me to a fitness level where I am able to now continue to run three times a week and then progress to running 10k. . . . #exercise #runninggoals #justdoit #exercisegoals #getfit #gethealthy #challengeyourself #5k #couchto5k #youcandoit #lockdownexercise #runner

Always lovely to get positive feedback. I’ve bee Always lovely to get positive feedback. I’ve been working with Gill since October last year. She had been suffering for years with diverticulitis and IBS affecting her quality of life and mental health. Working together I devised a tailored nutritional and lifestyle plan and recommended supplements as well as undergoing functional testing now Gill feels much better and together resolved her gut issues. #nutrition #nutritionaltherapy #clientfeedback #postivefeedback #guthealth #ibs #diverticulitis #healthandwellbeing
It’s never ok to treat someone differently becau It’s never ok to treat someone differently because of the colour of their skin, their ethnic background, their sex, religion, disability or their sexuality and this is something I constantly teach my children. Discrimination isn’t something we are born with it’s something that is taught or passed down and often born out of fear and ignorance. Let’s teach our children to be kind and respectful. What makes us amazing human beings is our differences #saynotoracism #bekind #respectothers #itsnotok #saynotodiscrimination #haveavoice
One of the best things about travelling to differe One of the best things about travelling to different countries for me is food inspiration and recreating recipes when you get back home. Such a nice feeling eating whilst feeling nostalgic and remembering the wonderful places and experiences. We all had big smiles on our faces this morning when we eat these beauties. This recipe was one of our favourite from Costa Rica that was cooked for us by Hermida who we stayed with on her coffee farm in the beautiful hills of Monteverde. . . INGREDIENTS * 🥚 6 large free-range eggs * 230g plain flour (you can use gluten free) * 2 heaped teaspoon baking powder * 🥛 280ml milk * 🍌 Ripe bananas Serves 6 Method 1. separate the eggs, put the whites into one bowl and the yolks into another. 2. Add the flour, baking powder and milk to the yolks and mix until you get a smooth thick batter. 3. Whisk the whites with 1 pinch of sea salt until you get stiff peaks, then fold into the batter 4. Heat a non-stick pan over a medium heat, add a knob of butter. Using a ladle pour some of the batter into the pan and add thin slices of banana, a sprinkle of cinnamon (we used @suryaprananutrition cinnamon it’s the best) and sprinkle a little of any type of sugar you prefer on each pancake. Cook for a couple of minutes, or until it starts to look golden and firm. 5. Using a spatula and flip the pancake over. Continue frying until both sides are golden. You can make these pancakes large or small and you don’t have to add banana you could add blueberries, stewed fruit whatever takes your fancy. It’s a great way of using up any sad looking fruit you have lying around though. And we love it because it reminds us of our wonderful Costa Rican road trip last summer. #breakfastinspo #foodnostalgia #breakfastgoals #foodtravelstories #costarica🇨🇷 #monteverde #homestays #summer2019 #holidaynostaliga #recipesfromaroundtheworld #recipeshandeddown
