We all go through stress in our lives but there are some ways to minimise the impact it has on your life

1. Kick them out! People who are toxic and energy vampires need to go. Remove them gracefully from your life. It will feel like a weight being lifted off your shoulders. It’s not mean, it’s not unkind, it’s just what you have to do for yourself.

2. Work on a solution not ponder over the problem– Life is going to throw ‘stuff’ at you all the time and it is up to you to stay in the ‘why me!’ or flip it and say ‘Lets do this!’. Being quick to get out of a funk and take action to get energy flowing. You might not find the right answer immediately but you will be better than where you are.

3. Seek mentorship– Others have travelled down the same road before so why not talk to them to see what they have done. You can’t figure life out on your own so fast track it and leverage off others to their opinion. Get the shortcuts, tips and most importantly save time!

4. Be a kid– do something you use to get a lot of joy doing. It could be playing computer games, shooting some hoops, going for a jog, eating some ice cream whatever it is be a kid again. We’ve lost the child-like happiness and life has become really serious.

By enjoying the little things again, it will release the feel good hormones in your body so you are more relaxed, even if it’s for a moment, you will start to feel why you are here.

5. Peace– get some peace and quiet in your life. Rest, read, relax and have some quiet time. No phone, no email but instead be quite. Head to the country for a drive, go for a mountain trail walk and re connect with nature. Swim in a river, walk barefoot on grass, watch a campfire flicker through the night. A break in your everyday environment will produce a different energy and thinking.

6. Gratitude– your situation is bad compared to who? The homeless guy on the street who can’t even find a hot meal or Richard Branson?

We generally compare to those around us and that is where we stick our benchmark for life but it that necessarily right? We all have different challenges, opportunities and circumstances we need to handle. It definitely could be worse but we live in a country where all things aside we have running water, roof over our head, food on our plate and clothes on our back. Sit back and think for a moment that you are in a good place and be grateful for the people around you, the experiences you’ve had and the wins that are to come.

It’s heating up again so we all want that summer body. Here are my 5 quick tips to get fitter, faster

1. Eat more- Eat more of the good food and less of the bad ones. Less sugar, less soft drink, less chocolate. More fruit, more vegetables, more water!

2. Move it!- get up, get up and move about. Nothing fancy just do the work and move more.

3. Patience– Weight loss is not glamorous and not fancy BUT you have to grind it out and be patient with your results. Eyes down and start working hard to get the results you want.

4. Burn it– If you want to fast track your weight loss, pick up your training with higher intensity exercise where you sweat, huff and puff.

5. Less stress– Enjoy the ride, have fun with it, smile and laugh when you can. It’s not all doom and gloom. You’ve survived this far but it’s time for a better change in your life so make it today and STICK to it.
