We all get excited at the change of season!
Spring is almost upon us; the days are getting warmer and the promise of longer days and finally coming out of hibernation has us itching to break free!
So this is an opportune time to look at your health and weight loss goals for the next 4 months and finish the year as a healthy and happy you.
Here is a basic guide to getting back on track:
- First up is Nutrition – how can you incorporate more greens into your diet?
Are you getting enough protein? The right kinds of protein keep you fuller for longer and you’ll find the need to snack less. If you struggle with getting enough protein in your diet, try our plant-based protein powders, great to add to your favourite smoothie or into your morning muesli.
If you are looking at having a better balance of nutrition and don’t know where to start, book a consult with our expert Naturopath and Nutritionist, Karen.
Karen is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to finding the right balance to suit your needs.
2. With good nutrition comes exercise!
If you move it, you lose it…
Make sure you are getting enough exercise each day. How can you increase your daily steps?
What kinds of exercise can you do that helps you tone and muscle build?
The more weight-bearing exercises you do, the easier it is to lose weight and strengthen.
3 Are you getting enough sleep?
If you are not sleeping well, you are not functioning well and everything in your body has to work harder to maintain daily life. That’s why it’s so important to get a good night’s sleep.
We have 3 amazing products to help with sleep –
- Bach Rescue Remedy Sleep is traditionally used to relieve sleeplessness. Rescue Sleep is a natural sleep aid, that calms your restless mind providing natural relief from insomnia caused by stress and repetitive thoughts. Ingredients: Rock Rose, Impatiens, Clematis, Star of Bethlehem and Cherry Plum, plus White Chestnut.
- Sleep & Insomnia Drops contain five herbs traditionally used to promote restful, recuperative sleep without next-day grogginess, allowing you to wake refreshed and ready to face the day. This high-quality extract absorbs quickly to address several factors that may inhibit normal sleep.
Sleep/Insomnia herbal drops are designed for someone who has been under stress for a short or long period of time. When this happens, adrenals become depleted. Common symptoms of adrenal fatigue are waking in the night, sometimes getting hot during the night and needing to put your feet out of the bed covers, feeling overwhelmed during the day.
This herbal remedy may need to be taken for several weeks to allow the adrenals to become regenerated. While this regenerating is happening, this herbal can be accompanied by Sleep Forte Drops.
- Sleep Forte Drops is a blend designed for those who need help getting to sleep. Sleep forte herbal drops contain zizyphus, valerian, skullcap, and kava herbals.
Sleep Forte Drops may help with anxiety as well as sleep.
4. Weight
Losing weight can be a real challenge, but if you have the right support it can be easier than you think.
