Alcohol – Sleep – Recovery 🌙🥱

  • Jul 8
  • 1 min read

Did you know alcohol is linked to broken sleep patterns, which can reduce the production of growth hormone — crucial for muscle recovery? 💤 Even one night of drinking can send your body into recovery mode rather than rest mode 🛌


Instead of a nightcap, try a gentle evening stretch — just 5–10 minutes before bed. It calms the nervous system, helps your brain unwind and supports deeper, more restorative sleep 🧘‍♀️


That’s far more likely to help you bounce back the next day, whatever you’ve got planned 🌞


Tip for the day: Sip a herbal tea instead of alcohol tonight before your 5-minute stretch ☕🌿

Your joints, energy and skin will thank you in the morning ✨

You Don’t Have to Drink Like Everyone Else 🍹🚫

  • Jul 7

It’s Alcohol Awareness Week (7–13 July), and throughout the week I’ll be sharing a few facts and tips to help you feel more informed about how alcohol affects the body — and how small changes can make a big difference 💡


Let’s start with this: you don’t have to drink like everyone else.

Whether you’re at a wedding, a networking event or sipping cocktails on holiday, there’s real strength in choosing what feels right for you, not just what’s expected 💬🌱


Swapping a glass of wine for sparkling water with a slice of lime doesn’t make you the odd one out. It can actually help you enjoy the moment more — you’ll feel clearer, more present and more in tune with your body 🧘‍♀️


And let’s be honest, waking up with a clear head, a smile on your face and energy for the day ahead? That’s the real win 😌☀️


You don’t need alcohol to connect, relax or have fun. Sometimes the best version of you — the one who’s energised, grounded and content — is just a breath, a walk or a good stretch away 💧✨


Are you switching your wine for water today?

Follow me for more tips and exercises.

Change of scenery 🌳

Sometimes all we need to shake off a slump is a change of scenery. Rolling out your mat somewhere different — the garden, the balcony, even a shady spot in the park — can totally boost your motivation 🧘‍♀️


There’s something about fresh air and a new view that lifts your energy and helps movement feel more enjoyable, not like a chore 🌬️
