MY BOOKS

 

 

A very happy wet and muddy team 😁. Taken half way around yesterday’s @tough_mudder . I didn’t think being covered head to toe in mud could be so much fun. It’s totally liberating and we all felt like big kids again. . ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ Our team ages ranged from 39-53. Just remember you are NEVER too old to try something new. Don’t put limits on yourself 💥 : : : : #teamfun #supporteachother #nevertooold #trysomethingnew #outofyourcomfortzone
I am SO proud of my team today, these ladies have never done anything like this before and I don’t think they imagined they ever would 😜 (a gentle hollyactive persuasion) But today we crawled, we climbed, we ran, we scrambled over 13 obstacles as a TEAM. We supported and encouraged each other every step of the way and I think I can speak for everyone to say it was amazing 😁 (they all want to do it again). Don’t let excuses like I’m too old or I’m not fit enough stop you. Is it fear talking? • Fear can stop us from trying new things and the unknown can be scary but when we challenge ourselves to step out of our comfort zones the rewards are huge. Especially when you have the support from the people around you. I LOVE the @tough_mudder pledge (last photo). It’s NOT a competition, it’s all about TEAM work 👍💕 : : : : #nevertooold #trysomethingnew #challengeyourself #comfortzone #toughmudder #teamwork #workingtogether #tryit
WHAT DOES YOUR FRIDAY NIGHT LOOK LIKE? Is it wrong that I’m happy to be in my PJs at 6pm?. I have to say I LOVE it 😁. Face mask, a movie and an early night for me. Off to do a @tough_mudder tomorrow with some of my clients. Ha I could have waited for a mud mask tomorrow 😜. : : : #fridaynightgoals #chilling #facemask #inmypjs #fridaynightvibes
PROGRESS CAN TAKE TIME. I spoke about this in my story today. If we don’t see results quickly it can be easy to lose motivation. When we focus only on the end goal we can miss all the small positive achievements along the way. Rather than seeing it as huge mountain to climb, break it down into small steps, each step (however small) IS PROGRESS. Sometimes it might not feel like it BUT every small change you make adds up and DOES make a difference. Give yourself praise for the little triumphs and remember this is a life long journey, so enjoy the ride 💕. And as Bob Dillon wrote “keep on carrying on” 💪 : : : : #thursdayquotes #thursdaymotivation #keeponcarryingon #progress #progresstakestime #youwillgetthere #keepongoing #smallstepstobigchange #smallstepsaddup

RYE BREAD RECIPE One of the best smells has to be freshly baked bread. And the taste of a warm crusty loaf is simply divine. This loaf will cost less than £1 and it’s 100% wholegrain, Uh hello 😍 yes please!. Check out my saved stories and you’ll see our attempt at a @thebodycoach quick recipe video (we need some practice 😜) INGREDIENTS 500g finely milled wholegrain rye-flour 4 dl water 12 g salt 1 tablespoon sourdough starter. This is very easy to make (just flour and water and leave it to do it magic) have a google and there will be lots of detailed explanations about what it is and how easy it is to make. METHOD Mix 200g flour with 4 dl water and 1 tablespoon of sourdough starter in a bowl and cover. Let sit till it’s bubbling (16-22 hours) Mix in rest of the flour (300g) with the salt (12g). Stir for a few minutes. Make a ball of the dough and sprinkle with flour, place it in a bowl and cover with a tea towel, let it rise for 1-2 hours. Bake in oven at 200C for about 20-25 minutes. Some would say let it cool for a bit before slicing but we love straight out of the oven 🧡 : : : . #breadrecipes #breadrecipe #wholegrainbread #bread #healthybread #healthyrecipes #healthyfood #mondaymotivation #foodie #healthybreakfast #healthybreads
Snooze you lose. TIPS ON HOW TO GET UP EARLY! You’ve packed your gym kit, you’re psyched up raring to go and as you snuggle down to sleep your plans are to hit the gym bright and early, nothing is going to stop you. Until your alarm goes off you instantly hit the snooze button and your good intentions disappear as you head back into dream land 💤 🤦🏻‍♀️. THINGS TO HELP ✅ 1️⃣ Leave your alarm across the room so you have to get out of bed to turn it off. Once you are physically out of bed you are half way there ✅ 2️⃣ Turn a light on straight away (if your partner is sleeping go into another room and turn on a light) stimulate the senses ✅ 3️⃣ Go to the bathroom and wash your face. As soon as the water hits your face you will start feeling more awake ✅ 4️⃣ Put the kettle on. Start the day. No turning back now ✅ * I get up most days between 5-6am, it did take a while to get used to but now I freaking LOVE an early start. You get SO much done 👊 ** Side note...I do sleep in a bed (not the floor) but this was the closest photo I had of me sleeping 🤪 : : : : : #morning #earlymorning #earlystart #justgetup #getstarted #getgoing #thursdaymotivation
