Ever felt that classic Monday slump hit you like a ton of bricks? 😴 What you eat can seriously shape your energy, motivation and even your mood, especially at the start of the week. One of the easiest (and most colourful) ways to get your sparkle back is to eat the rainbow 🌈


Different coloured veg and fruit are packed with phytonutrients these are natural compounds that help fight inflammation, boost immunity and improve circulation. All of these support your Pilates practice by helping your muscles recover quicker and joints move more freely.


✅ Red (peppers, tomatoes, beetroot) – anti-inflammatory and heart-supporting.

✅ Green (spinach, rocket, broccoli) – energising, iron-rich and full of vitamin K.

✅ Orange/Yellow (carrots, sweetcorn, squash) – packed with vitamin C and antioxidants.

✅ Purple/Blue (red cabbage, blueberries) – great for brain health and focus.


So if you’re feeling sluggish, try a rainbow salad at lunch, then notice the difference when you flow through your Pilates this afternoon.


The result? More energy, better focus and a body that feels ready to move again ⚡

It's National Salad Week, and we’re giving this crunchy classic the spotlight it deserves 🌟.


Salads can be more than limp lettuce and soggy tomatoes, they’re versatile, vibrant and packed with nutrients that support your body from the inside out.


Do you want to support joint health and bone strength? If so then load up on leafy greens, nuts and seeds. Magnesium, calcium and vitamin K are all key players in maintaining mobility, and here is where you can find these nutrients.


✅ Magnesium from pumpkin seeds, almonds and cashews – brilliant for muscles and reducing cramps.

✅ Calcium from chia seeds, sesame seeds and almonds – great for bones and balance.

✅ Vitamin K from dark leafy greens like spinach or kale – essential for bone strength and mobility.


So when you’re putting together your salad this week think beyond flavour, you’re fuelling your body for movement. Especially if you're moving daily with Pilates.


Nourish well = move well 💪
