14.01.2022 MUFFIN TOPS, CORTISOL, GHRELIN & STRESS I see so many people on a day to day basis struggling with stress and their weight. Its an epidemic. In todays society with our 'have it all' attitude we are becoming so stressed, overworked and overweight. Our 'superhuman' trend to keep pushing is making us so stressed we daily release stress hormone cortisol levels equivalent to a life-and-death situation. We cannot sustain this kind of stress. When Cortisol levels are always so hi...gh, the brain automatically thinks we are in danger. This extreme stress is manifesting itself in fat stores around the waistline. When the body believes it is in constant danger it stores fat for energy to escape. Cortisol is a fat promoting hormone because it triggers specific enzymes to store fat, in case of an emergency. The reason people accumulate tummy fat, or a muffin top, is because deep abdominal fat contains four times the amount of cortisol receptions than other fat sites. Cortisol is therefore drawn to the tummy like a magnet, leading to weight gain in this area. When the brain is so stressed over time it is unable to find emotional equilibrium, sparking anxiety and depression. The body is designed to cope with stress for short bursts of 60 seconds and it cannot tell the difference between living through a very stressful experience and worrying about it happening. 2/3 of women admit the feel on edge almost every day. The weight dilemma is compounded when we are stressed out we struggle to sleep, this leads to an increase in another hormone called Ghrelin, which is the hunger hormone, as it tell the brain to eat. Being tired causes people to gravitate towards fast energy releasing foods such as sugars/carbohydrates and fats. With blood glucose ups and downs, in time, metabolism is impacted which leads to it becoming even harder to lose weight. So, lose the bad habits, make changing your lifestyle no 1 priority, sleep better and your waistline is sure to improve. As they say .... If nothing changes, nothing changes. See more

13.01.2022 To my valued clients, Coronavirus update: For now we are business as usual. The health of our clients and the community is extremely important to me. ... In order to keep clients well and healthy I have intensified my cleaning regimen (with the recomended cleaning products) and in some cases you may be contacted to slightly adjust your appointment time to ensure I have time to thoroughly clean the area between appointments. In accordance with the Australian Government Department of Health's recommendations, we kindly ask everyone to wash your hands with soap provided before entering for your training session, massage or nutrition consultation. If you are feeling unwell, have a cough or any other respiratory symptoms, please do not come in to the studio. If you have recently been overseas we kindly ask that you refrain from coming to the studio for the recommended 14 days. If you are well and simply prefer to not come in to the studio I am also offering home visit appointments to select areas. It is extremely important that we keep ourselves healthy, stronger, calmer, and more resilient at this time. Looking after yourself and continuing your health and fitnes journey is important. More now than ever. If anyone is interested in health and nutrition to support your immunity I can be of assistance. I have a broad range of vitamins, probiotics and herbal nutrition products to help. Stay healthy & I look forward to seeing you soon. Natasha X

08.01.2022 Aluminium and paraben free deodorant are not all created the same.

05.01.2022 Today I did something amazing! Wim Hoff Method The cold is your warm friend and one of the three pillars of the wim hof method. Proper exposure to the cold starts a cascade of health benefits, including the buildup of brown adipose tissue and resultant fat loss, reduced inflammation that facilitates a fortified immune system, balanced hormone levels, improved sleep quality, and the production of endorphins the feel-good chemicals in the brain that naturally elevate you...r mood. The second pillar of the wim hof method is breathing. We’re always breathing, yet we’re mostly unaware of its tremendous potential. Heightened oxygen levels hold a treasure trove of benefits, and the specialized breathing technique of the Wim Hof Method unearths them all: more energy, reduced stress levels, and an augmented immune response that swiftly deals with pathogens. https://www.wimhofmethod.com/
