Midweek Blog: Put Yourself First?
Happy Wednesday. I’ve not been posting as much of late, but I have been writing a lot more than normal! A mix of annual leave, sad family news and work has filled my time. Putting myself first might sound a little selfish? In one sense it could be interpreted that way, but on another view…
Blog: Labels
One thing I have always disliked in the world is labelling. I dislike that everything needs to have definition and name tags. I find this does lead to negative impacts on our wellbeing if we are suddenly grouped together by a general tag. I am gay, I don’t even talk with that personal label very…

Exercise vs Mental Health
Exercise is more than just the physical health of our bodies. Exercise is not just about aerobic capacity and muscle size. Sure, exercise can improve your physical health and your physique, trim your waistline, improve your sex life, and even add years to your life. But that’s not what motivates most people to stay active….
Get Active Blog: Easter
Happy Easter everyone. Last week I had to take a break from exercising. I was physically exhausted and struggling with tiredness, and a little stress too. After two days of need complete rest I had improved drastically. On Thursday I went for a coastal walk, which ended up being a 10 mile walk. It was…
