Restore Renew You

🧬 𝐀𝐒𝐄𝐀 𝐓𝐡𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐝𝐚𝐲

Even when I'm off the grid these come with me 😊

Just got back from a weekend away surrounded by nature and these were part of the routine the whole time. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗸, 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘂𝗺, 𝗥𝗘𝗡𝗨𝟮𝟴, 𝗥𝗘𝗗𝗢𝗫𝗚𝗼𝗹𝗱. All the products I use daily no matter where I am.

There's something about having that consistency even when everything else around you is different. New environment, different schedule, mountains instead of my usual backdrop, but the basics stay the same.

ASEA has genuinely become part of how I support my body day to day. Whether I'm at home or out camping in the middle of nowhere, it's just part of the routine now.

Not all wellness looks like a workout or a meal plan.

We talk a lot about movement, nutrition, sleep, recovery. All important. 𝗕𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝘄𝗲 𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗹𝘃𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘆 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗮𝘀 𝗯𝗶𝗴 𝗮 𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝘄𝗲 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹.

This weekend reminded me of that. Good company, easy conversation, the kind of time where nobody's checking their phone or rushing to the next thing. Just being present with people who genuinely add something to your life.

And I think that's the part we overlook. Not just having people around. 𝗛𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱. The ones who fill you up rather than drain you. The ones you can be completely yourself with.

That's wellness too. Just as much as a workout or a good meal.

The weekend just reminded me of something I keep forgetting.

We say it all the time. Fill your cup. Look after yourself. But when was the last time you actually stopped and thought about what fills yours?

After a weekend away surrounded by nature, good company and birds that woke us up before the alarm ever could 😂 I came back realising how much I'd needed it without even knowing.

The things that fill us up are so personal. And so easy to put off.

So, let's do something fun today. I'll start.

I used to wear busyness like a badge.

Always something on. Always moving. Always tired but somehow convincing myself that meant I was doing well.

It took me a while to realise that 𝗯𝘂𝘀𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴. At all.

𝗕𝘂𝘀𝘆 is filling your day.
𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 is actually moving something forward that matters to you.

And for a long time, I was doing a lot of the first and not nearly enough of the second.

This week I've been heads down working on something and it reminded me how good it feels to just be in it. Focused. Present. Moving forward on something that actually matters.

I'm still figuring it out honestly. But noticing the difference is a start.

No judgement. The supplement aisle is genuinely overwhelming and most of us are just doing our best with the information we have.

I recently completed a short course on supplements and it confirmed a lot of what I suspected. Most people are taking things they don't really need and missing the ones that would actually make a difference.

The new blog breaks it all down in plain language. What the research actually supports for active people over 40. What's worth your money and what probably isn't.

It's a good one 👇

Winter is the time I really notice the difference this makes.

When it's cold and grey and your body is working harder to stay warm and healthy, having something that supports you from the inside out just makes sense.

𝐀𝐒𝐄𝐀 has been part of my daily routine for a while now and the consistency of it is what I think makes all the difference. Morning and night without fail.

It's not a quick fix or a magic solution. It's more like 𝗴𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗯𝗼𝗱𝘆 𝗮 𝘀𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗼 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺. Better energy, better balance, better recovery. Everything just functions a little better when your cells are supported properly.

And in winter when we're all a bit more susceptible to getting run down… that matters even more.

Hands up if winter makes you want to hibernate 🙋😂

Same. But here's the thing. Winter is actually one of the best seasons to get really intentional about how you look after yourself.

Because when you give your body what it needs in the colder months it shows up for you. Better energy. Better mood. Better sleep. You just feel more like yourself even when it's cold and grey outside.

I've been doing this for decades now and honestly the thing that keeps me going is 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲.

Not the programmes. Not the sessions. The actual humans who show up week after week, who trust me with their health and their time, who become part of something bigger than just a workout.

That means everything to me.

And I was thinking about it this morning over my coffee and I realised… I know so many of you. Some of you have been with me for years. Some of you just found your way here recently. And I love that this little community keeps growing.

But here's the thing. 𝗜 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝘁𝗼𝗼.

How long have you known me or been part of this community? How did you find your way here? A class, a friend, social media, something completely random?

And what's one thing that's shifted for you since you've been here? Big or small.

Anything counts.

Drop it below. I'm asking because I genuinely want to know 💙

Quick question before the week gets away from you.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘀𝗮𝗶𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴?

Just in your head. That quiet voice that starts up before you've even gotten out of bed.

Too much to do. Not enough time. Already behind. This week is going to be hard.

And here's the thing. You would never say that to a friend who was nervous about their week. You'd encourage them. You'd remind them of what they're capable of. You'd tell them they've got this.

So why do we speak to ourselves so differently?

Just notice it today. Catch the story you're telling yourself. And ask whether you'd say it to someone you love.

If the answer is no… maybe choose a different one 💙

Save this graphic for the days that voice gets loud 💙

Heading into the weekend feeling really full.

Looking at these photos and I just feel grateful all over again.

The outdoor sessions. The aqua classes. The ASEA community. The faces that keep coming back again and again. The ones who show up even when life is busy or hard or they really didn't feel like it.

This is what it's all about for me. Not the fitness. Not the programmes. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲.

I feel genuinely lucky to do what I do and to have the people around me that I do. That's not something I take for granted. Not for a single second.

So, thank you. To everyone who shows up, who trusts me with their health and their time, who brings their energy into every session.
