Exercise WITH your Female Cycle
Group & One to One | Online | 4 -Weeks
Since I have studied biology, human physiology, health coaching and being a woman myself, I would have thought I would have very well understood my hormones - I didn't! Since then, I have done a deep dive and have become a passionate advocate for knowing more about how these hormones, which shape us - and much of it, we would consider positive, which is often counter to our cultural messages.
If you are a female who exercises and wish to take a little journey together with like minded individuals to explore the way oestrogen and progesterone may manifest in us feeling and performing differently at various points in our cycle. We will look at the body's signs of ovulation; critical to properly tracking our cycle and also to give us a window into our health.
This program will include:
-
An understanding of our hormonal changes through the month and signs to know where we are in that cycle!
-
The role of our hormones outside of reproduction and how they impact our physical performance, emotions and mindset - ie. te motivation and confidence to perform.
-
How various aspects of our lifestyle; nutrition, stress, sleep can interplay with hormones and performance
Using our Breath for Stress Resilience
Group | Online | 4-Weeks
So often stress is an underlying obstacle to us functioning optimally and living out our values and goals. Learn, understand and develop the power of your own breath to help create resilience and manage stress. Stress so often goes under the radar, as the 'creeping' effect means we don't notice subtle changes, or we don't see the classics signs in ourselves (ie. the extreme states as pictured!).
-
Assessments of breathing, which will also give us an indication of how much our body is being impacted by stressors.
-
Learn how to breathe optimally and understand how this links to our stress.
-
Interventions for when we are stressed!
-
How we build stress resilience - focusing on using the breath but also considering other aspects of our life; nutrition, exercise, sleep, connection.

Improve Sleep
Group & One to One | Online | 4 -Week
Many health experts argue sleep is the most important pillar of health and I would agree there is a good argument for this being the case. Without good quality deep sleep, our energy, mood, motivation, appetite and metabolism suffer even in the short term. The resulting effect means all of the other 'pillars' of good heath are more difficult! It can be frustrating to hear this when you feel you are struggling with your sleep and not able to improve due to external factors (such as kids!) or you have been trying 'all of the things'.
-
What is the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) and how do we 'regulate' it's function to enhance our sleep.
-
Assessments of breathing; Giving an indication of the nervous system function - an underpinning system involved in our sleep-wake cycle.
-
Learn how to breathe optimally and understand how this links to our sleep -clue - breathing optimally during sleep is essential for optimising sleep quality.
-
Nutritional considerations for good sleep.
-
Environmental considerations for optimal sleep - our light exposure during the day and the night, as well as other environmental factors is critical.

It's a real mix for me, I loved and appreciated the conversation between participants and I also really valued the slides and the thinking that encouraged

Really appreciated what you said last night - 'Focus on one thing and make it bite sized.' So simple but so helpful.
Why Health Coaching?
Research from the UKIHCA (UK and International Health Coaching Association) stats that 88% of us understand that lifestyle is the main cause of chronic disease in the UK and we want to know how to take control of our health, yet only 18.5% of us feel confident of taking control of our health on our own.
The research shows that we want better health, but we're overwhelmed with information about what we 'should' be doing about our diets and lifestyle.
The questions I hear most often are; Where do I start? How do I start? How do I keep going?
93% of us feel it would be easier to make positive lifestyle change with the support of a health coach and 88% of people who used a health coach had a positive experience.
The research is clear - working with a health coach makes it much easier to make lifestyle changes and is a positive experience.
