Last week we discussed short term goals, changing our inner narrative around them and the Love You Philosophy of Well-being. To recap it was about embracing the ebb and flow of life and make goals but not start:stop or on:off to acknowledge that life will happen and is to be lived. Well-being to work shouldContinue reading “Love You: Riding the waves of life and learning from a lived experience”

Love You: The Love You Philosophy for Well-being and getting ready for Summer
This week, I was learning about the effectiveness of setting short-term goals to enhance our nutrition and eating habits. This approach is not limited to food; it can be applied to all aspects of our well-being. For instance, establishing short-term objectives can help us achieve a desired fitness level, whether that’s training for a 5kContinue reading “Love You: The Love You Philosophy for Well-being and getting ready for Summer”
Love You: Everyday movements that matter
Last week we looked at the active process of resting! This week we are looking at activity and why we need it in our lives. If movement was a medicine we would all be on it – why did I say that? Here is why 👇 So what is the magic formula? Movement, strength, flexibility,Continue reading “Love You: Everyday movements that matter”
Love You: The Active Process of Resting
The Yin and Yang of Well-being We all know that movement is medicine! Or as the physiotherapist at my practice says, “motion is lotion”. If physical activity was a tablet we would all be on it! But what of rest? Where does that fit into the mix? Often when patients have viral respiratory infections (commonContinue reading “Love You: The Active Process of Resting”
Love You: Love Living

Love You: What are you waiting for? The time is now.
Putting off off doing things until your ducks are all in a row?
Love You: Really Do
We are all familiar with the concept of securing your own life jacket or oxygen mask before helping others. This is not a selfish act but a matter of safety. Yet when it comes to self care we often have difficulties. It can be easier to place the needs of others before the needs ofContinue reading “Love You: Really Do”
Love You: Are you a stress eater?
At almost 52, the penny finally dropped that I am a stress eater. I tend to cope pretty well in the moment and calm in a crisis and all that ….but! After the challenges, when the stress has abated I can run into difficulties. I guess previously I would have had a “rewarding” glass ofContinue reading “Love You: Are you a stress eater?”
