24.01.2022 Let the online classes begin!! So the first trial of our online ‘Active Ageing’ exercise classes (government subsidised >65’s) was a great success today! We have been so sad for some our very isolated older clients who had been loving getting stronger as well as having a good social when we started these classes a few months back. Now at least we can see your smiling faces on the screen and have a laugh together! It’ll suffice for now in this crazy time, gotta keep commun...ity spirit going and support each other where we can. The rest of our classes will be rolled out online in the coming week, watch this space.... #community #wegotyousunshinecoast #sportsAUS #moveitausgrants #exerciserightaustralia #activeageing #movemore #exercisephysiology #proactivelife #movementismedicine #onebodyonelife #loveyourbody #exerciseisfun #itsabeautifullife #holistichealth #sunshinecoast #healthisthebiggestwealth #livewellbewell #lifestylechoices

20.01.2022 Next Seminar- Managing Hormones and Menopause Naturally: 6.45pm Thursday 1st August We are excited to have Lynsey back again from ‘Seed and Sprout Nutrition’ to talk about natural solutions to prepare and help get through the menopausal period, as well as supporting your body post menopause. ... Did you know that perimenopause, or menopause transition, begins several years before menopause...? It's the time when the ovaries gradually begin to make less estrogen. It usually starts in a woman's 40s, but can start in her 30s or even earlier. Perimenopause lasts up until menopause, the point when the ovaries stop releasing eggs. Lynsey will be covering: - The shift of changing hormones - Strategies to manage your transition - Ways to nourish your health post menopause - Managing bone density and digestive health Cost: $20 or $10 if you attended her recent talk at our clinic (payment to be taken at time of booking). Location: Proactive Life, Shop 2-3/Rooke St (front entrance on Henzell St), Dicky Beach #seedandsproutnutrition #hormones #stress #hormonalchanges #menopause #nutrition #proactivelife #onebodyonelife #loveyourbody #itsabeautifullife #holistichealth #sunshinecoast #smallbusiness #healthisthebiggestwealth #livewellbewell #holistichealth #sunshinecoast #lifestylechoices

13.01.2022 Old English Flapjack! Such a classic, can’t beat an all butter flapjack, and yes that’s ‘English flapjack’ I’m referring to here, not the American style pancake flapjack. This is a great snack anytime of the day and super easy to make. Oats have the benefit of giving a nice slow energy release too, perfect with your mid-morning cuppa! Ingredients 1/2cup/ 115g Butter... 1/3 cup Coconut oil 1/2 cup Rapadura or sweetener of choice 1/3 cup Honey 3 cups Oats 1 cup Dessicated coconut 1/2 cup Sultanas 1/2 tsp Himalayan/Rock Salt 1 tsp Vanilla essence 1 tsp Cinnamon Method Melt butter and coconut oil in saucepan, add rapadura and honey and stir until combined. Add remaining ingredients and mix well. Scrape into baking dish and press down firmly (I use 20cm x 25cm glass dish) and bake at 170degrees for 25-30mins or until golden brown on top. Leave to cool, refrigerate then slice. #healthytreats #butterflapjack #proactivelife #youarewhatyoueat #ilovebaking #healthisthebiggestwealth #livewellbewell #holistichealth #sunshinecoast #lifestylechoices

01.01.2022 Mindfulness. You must be completely awake in the present to enjoy the tea. Only in the awareness of the present, can your hands feel the pleasant warmth of the cup. Only in the present, can you savor the aroma, taste the sweetness, appreciate the delicacy. If you are ruminating about the past, or worrying about the future, you will completely miss the experience of enjoying the cup of tea.... You will look down at the cup, and the tea will be gone. Life is like that. If you are not fully present, you will look around and it will be gone. You will have missed the feel, the aroma, the delicacy and beauty of life. It will seem to be speeding past you. The past is finished. Learn from it and let it go. The future is not even here yet. Plan for it, but do not waste your time worrying about it. Worrying is worthless. When you stop ruminating about what has already happened, when you stop worrying about what might never happen, then you will be in the present moment. Then you will begin to experience joy in life... (Thich Nhat Hanh, revered Zen Buddhist monk) #teameditation #mindfulness #holistichealth #exercisephysiology #proactivelife #movementismedicine #onebodyonelife #loveyourbody #personaltrainingcaloundra #exerciseisfun #itsabeautifullife #sunshinecoast #smallbusiness #healthisthebiggestwealth #livewellbewell #sunshinecoast #lifestylechoices
