We all want to get better, achieve our big goals and live fulfilling lives, but success in any worthwhile endeavor requires hard work and self-discipline. As Jim Rohn aptly put it, “Discipline is the bridge between goals and achievements.”

How can we improve it?

This is time of year when gyms are packed and everyone's trying to commit to their New Year's fitness resolutions. But is there a "secret ingredient" to working out that makes it more effective?

When it comes to managing weight, mindless eating when bored can be your downfall. However, there are simple steps which you can take to reduce your chances of falling victim to boredom eating! Let’s discuss some handy tips to help avoid mindless eating.

In our daily lives, we're constantly making choices. Some are small and basic, while others are profound and shape the essence of a life well lived.

Here are three choices that can lead to a happier and more meaningful life.

As soon as something starts to hurt or you start to feel discomfort when moving, the common phrase that comes to mind is “I’m getting older”. Our body is a unique and sophisticated instrument that controls an incredible number of processes and works intensively around the clock without interruption. Wouldn’t it be wise to make life easier for it instead of taking everything for granted or even abusing it in some cases? This is where self-love, mindfulness and general awareness come in. In simpler terms, how can we look and feel better, how do we contribute to our aging and how can we slow it down?

Most people love to feel good about themselves but often find it hard to actualise it. And the reason is easy to understand. You are the only person who knows yourself completely — with your set of strengths and weaknesses, pluses and minuses and that’s where the trouble begins.

At a first glance leading a healthy lifestyle might seem intimidating. But it’s not that complicated after all. All one needs to do is develop good habits – everything else takes care of itself.

It doesn’t require ‘all or nothing’ attitude. As with many things in life, just getting started in one area creates a domino effect and the rest starts to follow.

Many think following a regular skincare routine, exercising, and eating vegan is what self-care is all about. However there‘s a lot more to reconsider.

Fitness - in particular aerobic movement, is an easy way to combat the symptoms of depression and anxiety, a subject that is especially important in the challenging days we’ve experienced this last year and continue to do so.

New Year’s eve, it is the perfect time to reflect on the past year. Overview all that has gone by – the highs and the lows, the hits and the misses, the gains and the losses, the challenges and the opportunities, the experiences earned, the lessons learnt, the mistakes made, the little joys shared, what worked for you and what didn’t. It’s a time to reminisce all these.

Easter is commonly regarded as a time for new beginnings, hope, opportunity and positivity. We all like to look forward to the days getting warmer, with more sunshine, raising up our energy levels and perhaps looking for new projects.

However it’s not always very easy to keep a strong focus and commitment to something, even though you may have very sincere intentions at the start. Often, just after a few attempts your interest and attention may gradually diminish – so how can we stick to new habits and build those desired results?

In the current climate, where a fridge is just round the corner most of your day, mindless eating can become the downside. As they say: “we need to practice social distancing from the food!”

However, there are simple steps which you can take to reduce your chances of falling victim to boredom eating! Let’s discuss some handy tips to help avoid mindless eating.

Many people believe in the “no pain, no gain” theory. when it comes to their workouts. Believing that pain means progress, they continue to work out intensely despite of experiencing pain or discomfort.

There are others who say that continuing your exercise routine in an effort to toughen the body, may not be a smart thing to do. Is it really true? No pain, no gain?

The quantum world is a very odd place, that defies what we think is possible, so learning about quantum pschology, health and fitness, are probably the biggest breakthroughs in human potential in generations.

While everyone is talking about AI human intelligence on a quantum level is also accelerating, and if you want to live a healthier more energised life – read on and be amazed.

The first thing to get your head around is that thought influences the cells of your body and the energetic field that surrounds all living things. For those who can read auroras then they will know the colour changes in line with the feelings/energy alterations. Quantum is the basis of faith healing.

To be able to achieve long lasting progress, happiness and success in anything you do – finding the right balance is a must.

When we think about health, diet and exercise are typically the first things that come to mind. However, good health isn't just about the physical body. Our mind and body are interconnected and affect each other tremendously.

People often ask me what I do or don’t eat to stay in shape. My approach to eating is very similar to my approach to ballet: develop good habits, listen to your body and enjoy everything you do!

One of the most powerful aspects of Ballet Body Sculpture that our members benefit from — that NO other fitness program offers — ballet based or otherwise, is access to world class mental coaching; and when I say world class, I really mean the highest international standard.

Workout should not be a chore.  Exercising makes you feel terrific and look even better.  Your skin glows, your clothes fit better, you feel happier, relaxed and more confident, your sleep is more restful and satisfying at night.

So why do we sometimes fear it?

For most of us stress is a regular part of the day. Some statistics suggest that up to 77 percent of us feel the physical effects of stress on a regular basis in the form of headaches, insomnia, anxiety, weight gain, muscle aches and pains, crankiness, and difficulty focusing. Learning how to deal with it in a healthy way can actually help get rid of some of the worst symptoms.

Often the biggest barrier to our health and fitness goals is our own state of mind. Fear, frustration, a desire to wait to begin exercising until we lose some weight, have more time, less busy time at work, more energy... there are many reasons, when it comes to working out and getting results it is very easy not to make it happen. 

Sometimes all you need is a reminder to be mindful and to  take care of yourself!
