#nationalfitnessday. Age 64. . Its important to stay flexible as you grow older. . Not necessarily as flexible as myself

Age 64.
.
Its important to stay flexible as you grow older.
.
Not necessarily as flexible as myself as I have hyper-mobility which is not a good thing so I have to be careful to not over-stretch.
Especially as I had a hip resurface ( like Andy Murray) a few years ago.
.
However exercising, stretching and moving every day, even if its just a 20 min dog walk will make a difference to your body, how you feel and also your mental health.

2nd guest speaker talk this week For Mental Health Week

2nd guest speaker talk this week
For 
Mental Health Week 
The topic is
Body Image and Social Media 
For BNP Paribas Leasing Basingstoke.
.
I love doing these speaker talks for organisations or schools.
If I can inspire or change the mindset even of just a small percentage of my audience it's all worth while.
.
I want both women and men to aspire to be their unique best selves, to not aspire to be like the images that they perceive to be the reality on Instagram social media posts.
.
I'm wearing:
A current season £29.00 Zara dress.
I replaced the plastic red belt it came with, with a Gucci one.  I like to mix affordable High street with occasional Designer accessories.
Orange ballet shoes Zara past season.

Ask your friends or your family how they see you?

Ask your friends or your family how they see you? 
The answer will always be more positive than how you believe they perceive you and how you see yourself. 
You will be so surprised 
So
Think of one word to describe ......
"How you see yourself.
And 
then,
"How you think others see you.
"How you'd like others to see you."
And start asking....
.
Did your three answers match? 
I want you to love what you see in the mirror.
The same as how others see you.
That unique, glamorous, confident, sexy, ageless beautiful woman who doesn't compare herself to others.

This collection of CBD oils, capsules and creams are for me to test and trial with some of my lifestyle and wellness clients

This collection of CBD oils, capsules and creams are for me to test and trial with some of my lifestyle and wellness clients.
.
.
Until now I have been very anti CBD oils as I believed that any with enough strength to do anything significantly helpful would be addictive due to the addictive nature of THC compound in cannabis.
.
However the THC has been removed in all these products but they are still high strength enough to be effective.
.
So we here we have from L-R... Kat's Naturals organic CBD THC free drops- Heal: These high dose anti-inflammatory formula drops are peppermint flavoured and can help with anxiety, depression and insomnia.
.
.
Medterra drops are fast acting as they are absorbed sublingualy for anxiety and  pain relief during periods. These I am going to test out on a young women client.
.
.
The  Mediterra capsules can help lessen interrupted nightly sleep as they are slower to kick in as they are absorbed slower in the body than drops. These are what I am  goimg to try myself. Apparently they will not give a Melatonin style hangover effect in the morning.
.
.
The CBD pain cream can help arthritis and inflammation. I am going to try this on an arthritic finger and an ageing knee joint myself.
.
.
The Lucent botanical mints can help to be calming.
.
.
The tester sachet creams can help redness, rosacea etc.
.
.
I would be inyerested to know if any of my Instagram followers  have tried any CBD products for any medical reasons and how you got on.
I will report on my progress too.

For my New Year mental and physical well-being my go-to special place is @grayshottspa

For my New Year mental and physical well-being my go-to special place is @grayshottspa .
.
Faddy instant quick fix diets can never work successfully as they're not sustainable long term. So finding a way of healthy eating that works for your own lifestyle is the way forward. .
.
So over the next week I'm going to post examples of the Grayshott "regime week"
with nutrition tips for you to follow. 
So you too can do a simple home version.
.
.
The key to the Regime is improving gut health with fermented foods (sauerkraut and bitters) before each meal and then having a good balance of complex carbs (vegetables) and protein ( chicken, fish , beef, etc). .
.
Yummy carrot, kale and spinach soup to start. Main course fillet of red mullet in miso broth with crispy shallots and stir fry vegetables in wheat free soy sauce. .

Dont be self critical

Dont be self critical. 
No one is perfect, whatever your age.
Dont believe the filters.
No celebrity I have ever styled has been perfect.
Embrace your flaws and love yourself.

Today’s School speaker talk on Social Media and Body Image for year 6 girls (10 and 11 year olds) this morning

Today's School speaker talk on Social Media and Body Image for year 6 girls (10 and 11 year olds) this morning.
Discussing what's real and what's not. Filters and self image, self confidence and body confidence. How to make social media work for you in the future and not become addicted and have anxiety.
Thank you to @ursuline_prep school.
Loved interacting with your girls. They were beautifully behaved, interested and interesting, and asked me loads of questions after my presentation talk and told me some of their personal stories which all had positive endings. .
