A Personalised Approach to Wellbeing, and How to Deepen Self-Understanding to Find What Really Works For You

It's here! My first episode in a really long time, and one on my most demanded topics; food, fitness and feeling good in your body.

In this episode, I unpick all of the routines, rituals and methodologies I have gathered and resonated with personally throughout my journey working in wellness for over 10 years. I emphasise the importance of self-understanding, and of learning to cherry pick information and recommendations from the media and others, to create a unique formula for your unique self, that really works, feels good, and fits into your life and personality effortlessly, manageably, enjoyably and sustainably. I discuss cutting out the noise - of which there is a lot on these topics - and honing in on the things that really light you up, make you feel good and thrive, and just resonate in a way that feels right. It is all about developing a personlised formula - trying on several things for size and selecting only what fits - and using this to go smoothly through life feeling armed, empowered and aware.

I discuss how quick fixes and magic pills just aren't realistic, and how instead a slightly more time consuming route is ultimately going to save you so much time and energy. It is about developing a deep sense of self-understanding in order to then be able to make educated decisions, and to know what things work for you and what to leave for others. I emphasise how we are all so different, in so many ways, and how certain things will work for someone, whilst others won't respond to them in the same ways at all. I touch slightly on specifics of foods and ingredients, and whilst I discuss approaching health foods lightly, and explain how 'less healthy' foods make more regular appearances in my meals these days, I am not saying this will 'work' for everyone, or is the healthiest approach to take. I am simply debunking the bad rep that these foods often get, and sharing my own experiences with these foods, removing negative beliefs about them. I emphasise how wellbeing and having a balances approach to food comes from mindset and beliefs - conditioning around food that has developed over the years - and the importance of focusing more on simpler ingredients; making educated decisions on foods that do good, but also make you feel good emotionally and energetically, too.

I discuss my own journey into the world of wellness, the methods and teachings I have resonated with most, my current routine and rituals, and what my meals and workouts look like day to day. I then unpick a few of my most frequently asked questions, too. This is not a "how-to" episode, filled with life-changing tips and tricks I promise will work for everyone. Instead, it is a combination of things that have helped me deepen my self understanding and soften my approach to and relationship with food, fitness, my body and my mind; that I think will help you to do the same, in order to begin looking inwards for the answers, instead of following trends, diets, the latest hot topics, or anyone else's "what I eat in a day" or exact fitness programs.

It's all about you! I hope you enjoy this episode; it's a long one!
