This week’s article is all about what is going on at Balance! However, I thought I would share a really useful piece of information with you that I learnt whilst on my MPI Summit: We can help speed up our Brain Processes/Changes – Dr Mike T Nelson (the science behind our Mindset modules), informed us that there is now SCIENTIFIC evidence that the following has  been proven to speed up these changes in our brains:

  • EXERCISE  
  • FISH OIL (OMEGA 3)
  • SLEEP
  • BERRIES
  • SUNLIGHT/VITAMIN D
  • INTERMITTENT FASTING

Mmmmm sounds familiar, those of you that have done the Pilates Detox, or read my newsletter or blog posts, will have often heard me talk about the benefits of the above!

It’s exam results time…….but it made me think of the impact this could have if we ensure our children get enough of these – makes you think, doesn’t it, we can ALWAYS help shape our future!

DETOX TIME!!! A few of you have asked if I am doing a new Pilates Detox, right now I’m busy working on putting together all the Mindset programmes, so I have no plans to run another one at this time…… However, Danii who does Arbonne is doing a 30 day detox which follows very similar principles.

She is running a Healthy Living Workshop at Balance where she will be able to go through all the details with you.   The detox is for 30 days and includes:

  • Lots of clean eating recipes
  • Facebook Group
  • Supplement advice
  • Some exercise Videos
  • Mindset clips

It’s  a great time of year to do it after we have all overindulged a bit over the summer!  So come along to the Healthy Living Workshop and see if you want to join Danii on the detox.

Healthy Living Workshop, 17th September, 7.30pm-9pm

Introduction to Clean Eating Principles & Information on the Supplements recommended to maximise nutrient intake and maximise toxin elimination.

Free Goody Bag for all Attendees

Please book for the workshop through me: pilatesbyphilippa@btinternet.com

I sneak the odd routine into some classes, particularly the Healthy Backs 4 Life classes, it’s powerful stuff and works with the Mind and Body to improve your range of movement!
