We all need some downtime to reboot each week

We all need some downtime to reboot each week. This includes a weekly Pilates class for me. . If we keep our bodies reasonably fit and eat healthily, then when we are super busy we are still able to cope when life becomes stressful. . This is an exercise from my Wednesday physio reformer pilates class. . This Pilates exercise strengthens arms, helps the movement and flexibility of a tight upper back, works the tum, core and glute muscles, the inner thighs and needs balance to be able to stand, twist and bend over. . It's more difficult than it looks, especially when it's done slowly with control, holding out the platform steadily before returning it back in. . . . . . .

Happy face

Happy face. Haircut day. No make-up selfie. No filters. . Thank you @andyatagency as always. Thank you @chanelnott for my blondeness. Love my 2 favourite hairdressers. . As you get older often shorter hair cuts can be more flattering as they frame and lift the face instead of the impression of dragging down.. Also the correct hair colour tone is very important too as it can make so much difference to flattering or draining your skin tones. . . . . .

Today’s Stripes

Today's Stripes. Sloppy, Sunday comfy dressing. . My posts are always non-filtered and exactly how I look that day. . It shouldn't be necessary to filter, Facetune, or create a social media enhanced perfect version of yourself. . NO celebrity or client I have ever styled or dressed for the Red Carpet has had a perfect body or skin. You can always aspire to be the best version of yourself but your imperfections are what make you unique. . Be confident enough in your own self-image and body-image to not judge or compare yourself to others, especially others' fitered Instagram posts. They're not real. . Tshirt dress: Primark Sweater: Zadig and Voltaire Metallic trainers: Superga Specs: People . . . . .

#Tbt Me age 15 and age 28

Me age 15 and age 28. . . These photos are pre-social media when there were no filters on photos and no pressures to look a certain way. . Of course there were those who were skinny too and those who were fat but no-one judged or had anywhere to post photos that weren't real. The only place to post a photo was in a personal photo album which stayed in your living room. . No-one exercised, worked out or went to gyms in the same 'addicted to fitness' way so our bodies were a different shape and less toned than gym bodies of nowadays. . Maybe we did ballet or horse riding or swam or did some form of sport at school and beyond but only for our personal enjoyment. Not with the same end goals to have the perfect Instagram body. . We didn't compare or judge. No pressures to look a certain way. We were happier and more confident in our body image then. Free to be who we were. . . . . . .

Back to a barrecore class today

Back to a barrecore class today. . . It's another birthday next week, (in my 60's) which reminds me that as we get older it's important to keep fit, healthy and mobile. For mind and body. Even if the exercise is only a 20 minute brisk walk a day. Exercise should be a minimum of 3 times a week. . . . I like to mix up my fitness classes each week. Each style of class has a different purpose. So today is barrecore which has core and glute work, plies and sqats, together with ballet style barre exercises and light weights for arms. I do Pilates once a week for core and glute strength and spinal mobility. 30 min boxing and HIIT workout once a week for cardio and also to help weight maintenance or loss. Horse riding is my occasional special feel good treat especially when It's riding along the beach. And then there's the dog that needs a walk.... What's your weekly fitness or exercise regime? And what's your favourite class? . . . . .
