20.01.2022 https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1533172983491456&id=865667246908703 I can 100% recommend Scott Stephens. I have been really happy with the results of accupunture for my hormone changes in mnenopause. I only wish that I had started accupunture a few years ago when my hormone changes started happening.... Scott takes a full history of all factors in your life into account. Hehelps you as a whole person and not just a quick fix. I love this about the way he works, we are all individuals and he treats you as that.
19.01.2022 I always talk about showing gratitude in my yoga classes and finding something to be grateful for in our lives. I want to show gratitude for my feet with all my heart and soul. I am very lucky that most of my work is spent in bare feet. I love being in bare feet.... These are all the things that I am grateful that my feet have helped me with since the start of November. Walked on the sand Walked anong the beach Walked in the water In fact walked in beaches at Anglesea, Phillip Island, Torquay, St Kilda and of course Port Melbourne. In fact my feet have already walked 476,348 steps in November Walked around the Tan, the city, albert park lake. They have done the 1000 steps, bootcamp, at least 30 yoga and pilates classes, danced, ran, climbed heaps of stairs and all of this without complaining once. I have treated them kindly sometimes. They have had massages, reflexology, pedicures and accupunture. Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou Love them with all my heart and sole.

07.01.2022 I have written this post on Our Community Wellbeing. OUR BODY TALKS...... I am passionate about my own health and fitness and now I want to share ways that I have found helped me through my menopause and beyond. I WANT TO DISCUSS LOTS OF ASPECTS OF MENOPAUSE AND HELP TO SUPPORT WOMEN DURING THIS IMPORTANT TIME IN A WOMANS LIFE.... Some of the symptoms of menopause include anxiety, irritability, insomnia, hot flashes osteopoosis and weight gain. These are just a few of the more common ones.I have been speaking about my number one change that I made in my life... YOGA. TODAY AND FOR THE REST OF AUGUST IT IS ALL ABOUT THE HIPS AT I LOVE BALANCE. WHY? WHAT HAVE THE HIPS GOT TO DO WITH MENOPAUSE? HOW DO STRONG AND FLEXIBLE HIPS/PELVIS HELP US AS WE AGE? As we age we loose a lot of our bone density and can be prone to Osteoporosis. There is a direct link between lack of estrogen after menopause and the development of osteoporosis. The good news is that there are ways that we can keep our bones healthy and strong. Weight bearing exercise is very important and helps to prevent against bone loss. The other problem with our hips are that they can become very tight. yoga is fantastic for not only strength but also to help with flexibility. Many times we are held back on the exercises that we can perform because of the tightness in the whole hip/glute and pelvic area. The functrion of the hip joint is to support the weight of the body in both static (standing) and dynamic (walking or running) positions. The ligaments and muscles around the hips/pelvis provide stability, strength and motion for the pelvis.The hip is a ball and socket joint, The ball and socket allow for a lot of range of motion in different planes and directions.during our yoga and pilates. We can really help to keep this whole area healthy by increasing the blood flow, synovial fluid, circulations, strength and flexibility. The hip is one of the strongest, secure and stable joints in the body. There are very strong muscles that surround the hip joint/pelvis ard help us during everyday activities such as walking, running and bending, just to name a few. Particularly during winter we can become a bit more sedentary which impacts on the whole problem even more. LETS FALL IN LOVE WITH OUR HIPS AND KEEP THEM HEALTHY AND STRONG THROUGH MENOPAUSE AND BEYOND. Over the next few days I will be showcasing yoga strength and flexibility exercies on, Are you ready for the big M. and I love Balance pages. Stay tuned and Love your hips and they will love you back. .Wendy. I Love Balance.
05.01.2022 I love this one. Priorities. haha.
04.01.2022 WEIGHT/STRENGTH/RESISTANCE TRAINING. I have been speaking about my love of training. I have been weight training for 31 years consistently. Speaking directly to women, especially peri-menopause and menopausal women resistance training is so important. ... The saying USE IT OR LOOSE IT.... So so relevent and never too late to start. I am going to highlight some of the best exercises you can do. I am particularly speaking about the benefits for women/people as they age. I have actually highlighted the importants of leg exercises, particually squats. Today I am highlighting BACK. We have so many important muscles in our back. Our back helps us to have correct posture to keep our whole spine strong. As an extra bonus, each time we use our back in resistance training we are strengthening our arms. Fabulous to keep some beautiful shape in the arms. There are so many resistance and strength exercises we can do for back. My favourites are These 2 that I have pbotos of me doing. Seated row and Assisted chin ups or pullups. These 2 are compound exercises that use a lot of muscles and help to develop strength and endurance of the muscles. The muscles that are mainly used in these 2 exercises are: Seated rows: Latissimus dorsi, Rhomboids, rear deltoids, erector spinae, middle and lower trapezius and many other small muscles and of course the muscles in your biceps. Assisted chin ups or pull ups: Another one of my favourites. Also using Latissimus dorsi and trapezius. Also developing your biceps, triceps and shoulders. Many other back exercises are very effective if you do not have access to a gym. You can use dumbells, bars or thermal bands as other options. Other exercises are: Lat pulldown One arm dumbell rows Bent over rows Lower back extensions Upright rows Always be conservative with weight and try and do between 10-15 repetitions and work upto 3 sets. If you are not sure what this all means then please give me a call and I will get you started with a basic beginners program. Wendy. 0418111905.
