    This one blows my mind. My mentor @lesleylogan said this to me in a recent coaching call and it has become my catch cry. ⠀ I did not learn this, in fact I learnt the opposite. Self care was a reward, when I had done a good job or when everything else was done. ⠀ But you and I both know everything is never done so earning your self care is cruel trap. ⠀ Your self care must come first. If we are to be well. ⠀ People who inspire me to this are @clairesparrowpilates @carriemillerpilates @arcpilates Thanks for your leadership and inspiration. ⠀ Do you have a self care tip to share? We would all love to hear it!! ⠀ PS Head to my bio to get weekly self care inspiration direct to your inbox. ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #breakthrough #breakthroughtoyou #bodykindness #movetonurture #selflovebootcamp #hatebootcamp #findingyou #goslowtogofar #agencypilates #pilatesforeveryone #pilateslennoxhead #pilatesballina #selfcaretips

    Deep breathing 😊 a reminder you can breathe deep ANYWHERE! ⠀ I am at the mechanics waiting for my car, I have to have a mask on, and I am slightly annoyed because I wasn’t planning to spend half the day at the mechanic! ⠀ A deep breath can be taken anywhere even when wearing a mask, inhale and exhale through your nose if possible. ⠀ Also a reminder what a deep breath looks like. My shoulders don’t come up, but my ribs move out as the breath comes in. ⠀ Keep an eye on my fingers on my ribs showing how my ribs expand (fingers move apart) on my inhale. Then ribs relax (fingers move together) on the exhale. ⠀ Give it a try and let me know how it feels. If you want practical steps to deepen your breathing join my email list (in bio) and get weekly movement ideas that: ⠀ 😊improve your breathing 🧘‍♀️ optimise your posture 👂develop body awareness 💪🏽build you strength safely ⠀ Do you need to take a deep breath today? ⠀ #breakthrough #breakthroughtoyou #movetonurture #selflovebootcamp #hatebootcamp #findingyou #goslowtogofar #agencypilates #pilatesforeveryone #pilateslennoxhead #mindfulness #bodyfulness #movementmeditation #movementismedicine #mindfulmovement #postnatalpilates #ballinacommunity #ballinamums #corestrength #due2020 #duejanuay #duefebruary #due2021 #stressfreechristmas #stressless #northernnsw #dailycalm #managestress #pilatesforcalm
    Stiff and tight upper back, sore neck at the end of the day. Feelings of anxiety and tightening around your heart? Shoulder dysfunction and pain? ⠀ Your breathing pattern affects just about everything in your body. If you get stuck in a shallow breathing pattern you can have one or all of the symptoms above, plus more. ⠀ To reset your shallow breathing, focus on keeping your rib cage mobile. Imagine your ribs expanding sideways on your inhale and keep your eyes peeled for my live on how to check your own breathing. ⠀ Helping people find their deep breathing pattern excites the hell out of me! Drop an emoji below if you need help with shifting your shallow breathing… ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #mindfulness #bodyfulness #movementmeditation #movementismedicine #mindfulmovement #postnatalpilates #byronlife #ballinacommunity #ballinamums #corestrength #due2020 #duejanuay #duefebruary #due2021 #stressless #northernnsw #lennoxhead #movetonurture #dailycalm #managestress #pilatesforcalm 📸@emily.joy100
