When you set yourself a goal, or embark on something new make sure you have the right intentions around it. Yeah sure it would be nice to have abs if thats what you so desire, but it's also great to have a better relationship with your body regardless of how it looks.

It's ok if you want to lose weight but its also great to simply exercise for your mental health and to feel strong and have more energy rather than be focused (or obsessed) with a certain number on the scales.

Your journey, whatever the purpose or reason is yours alone. So instead of making sure others know about or understand it, make sure you understand it and that at the end of the day, it's what you really want and what's going to help you be the best version of you moving foward 💜

Due to circumstances outside of my control, the recent rule changes of COVID-19 and gyms have made it impossible for me to continue to run without the risk of huge fines to me or the venue I operate from.

So it is with a heavy heart I share this post that I am closed for business with no clear return date 😔💔 for the second time in 2020.

I started this business 7 years ago. Just a girl with a dream and a passion for helping others. And while it is no longer my primary source of income, my passion remains the same and I can't explain how much I miss training my small group of wonderful ladies each morning. Thankyou all for your ongoing patience and support 💞

To all the other small business owners out there living their dream or following their passion who have been affected by COVID-19, I am thinking of you and sending you a huge hug and lots of ❤ at a time that is unpredictable and hard for us all.

We have been consistently taught/told to believe that there are certain body types and weights that are acceptable in society. You don't meet this? You need to change.
The diet industry makes millions each year from men and women who believe that in order to "fit" or be acceptable in our society they need to look a certain way or fit a certain weight profile.
What's worse is this idea, is spilling further and further between generations. We have children as young as 5 who are believing things such as "I'm too fat" and "I can't eat that". A 5 year old?! If that isn't completely screwed up then I don't know what is.

WE have the power to change the message that's being sent to the younger generations. We have the power to create a body positive society where curves, rolls, cellulite, and FAT are accepted.

Whether you're young or old, male or female, whether you've carried a child or not, your body, the human body is amazing! It deserves to be celebrated and treated with respect 🙌

Embracing, loving, respecting and caring for your body is absolutely what it deserves. 2020 has been a tough one so far and I'm sure many of you, like me feel emotionally drained by all that's happened. Training helps my mental health and I know it can change my mood in just 30 minutes a day 🥰

Why not give it a try? What have you got to lose?

Thankyou so much to everyone who has liked and shared my post about losing my previous business page in the past week. You are all wonderful and it means a lot to have the support.

Still a long way from where I was, but truly grateful for where I am ❤

Sadly on Thursday last week my facebook was hacked and as a result, Facebook disabled my account. This meant that my previous business page that I had built up over the past 8 years was also wiped and everything gone with it which has been hard to comprehend.

However as this is something I cannot change I'm choosing to take it in my stride and start again and make this page better than before.

It's going to take some time to rebuild, but if you can help by giving the page a like and share if you are still wanting to follow my content, I'd be really grateful 💖
