What Has Happened To Your New Year Resolutions?

2013The start of a new year may seem like a good time to make resolutions about what we want to change in our lives.  However, once the Christmas decorations have been cleared away and life goes “back to normal” these often lose their appeal – much like turkey leftovers or spent fireworks!

THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT IT DOESN’T HAVE TO BE THAT WAY!

With a little help, it is possible to break down your resolutions into ‘bite sized chunks’ that can be tackled over a period of days, weeks and months.  It’s a bit like climbing a mountain, you have to do it one step at a time.

It is important to remember that on days when things don’t go your way, being kind to yourself will help you to keep on track, whereas if you ‘beat yourself up’ about what you haven’t done/achieved, this has a negative effect on you and makes you less likely to succeed going forward.

So, if you are one of those women who constantly do too much, Eat Breathe Love Workshops are for you.  In addition to teaching you loads of great stuff about what to do to help you feel better, they are a fantastic day out where you will meet ‘like minded’ individuals.  The Eat Breathe Love team will help you to get back on track and make some important and necessary changes in your life, which will not only make you feel better but will benefit those around you too.

Loving Yourself Has To Come First

Women have many reasons why they do not put themselves first:

“The children are my priority”

“My husband earns more than I do”

“I am only a woman”

“If I didn’t do it, who would?”

etc

My question to them is, “if you were unable to do it what would happen?”  This question is crucial, because if you do not look after and care for yourselves ladies, you may end up being unable to helps others.

Can I let you into a secret?  If you love and care for yourself first, you will be in a much better position to love and care for others.  

I can hear you now “that’s easier said than done”.  I agree, it isn’t easy but the rewards are worth the effort.

And, the good news is you don’t have to do it alone.  We are all on a journey, and sharing that journey with like minded individuals means that you can share each other’s joy and help each other through the difficult times.  Are you ready to embark on your journey?

What age group is this workshop aimed at?

Any age! The pace of modern living can affect us whatever stage of life we are at. Sadly more and more young people are being affected. However we have aimed the content of the day roughly to the 30 to 60 age group, but it really applies to all. When we are younger the body is in a better place to adapt as we get older it can struggle.

But the demands on a 30 year old are just not the same when you get to 50 plus, so how can you help us all?

Whilst the demands of life do change as we age the way our bodies cope remains the same.

For example, a few case studies:

‘Ann’ a 35 year old working in London, and mother of 2 who mysteriously gained weight over the past year and begun to experience panic attacks on the commute into work

‘Jane’ a 52 year old teacher, whose both children had just left home for University and had begun to struggle with menopausal symptoms and just felt exhausted every day.

 ‘Tanya’ a 30 year old single solicitor, a high achiever with out of control PMS symptoms who couldn’t function properly without a constant infusion of diet coke.

These ladies lives and symptoms are all very different yet the underlying cause the same, their bodies were out of balance, more specifically their adrenal glands (once tested) were struggling from on-going stress. Once this happens it can affect anyone of our body’s systems

What are my adrenal glands?

They are 2 small glands that sit on top of the kidneys and are crucial to our health, mood and well being. They are what help us cope with unusual challenges and stress, protecting our bodies from damage. We will look at how they work and sometimes struggle with modern life during the workshop. I believe such an understanding is so important, in helping us take control of our health and vitality.

But surely stress is not all bad? I love to be busy and enjoy my hectic lifestyle.

Yes stress is not bad it itself, it’s a natural response of the body. In fact without some stress our lives would become dull and boring! The key is balance a stressful response needs to be followed by a relaxation response. Rather like pushing down on the accelerator on a car, to rev the car engine for a specific purpose like to over take, you then ease back on the accelerator, the engine is designed to cope with this. If on the other hand you drive with your foot always hovering on the accelerator revving up the engine for not real reason say at the red traffic lights when you are stationary, the engine over years will be affected. So it is with the body. The answer is balance and this is what we look at in the workshop……..how we can all achieve some balance in our lives.

Why is the workshop for women only?

Although men and women have the same basic physiology when it comes to the stress response we feel that a woman faces many extra burdens/challenges through her life. We are ‘wired’ differently emotionally and tend to put other peoples needs first, before our own both at work and at home. Many women end up in stressful jobs with a lot of responsibility but very little power such as nursing and professional women still often feel that they need to work harder to achieve the same accolades as their male colleagues. Being mothers also adds many demands; we tend to be on the alert ready to respond to our child’s needs what ever the age and it doesn’t really end when they reach 18! We are constantly ‘juggling’; we need different ‘pause buttons’ to keep our lives in balance and energy levels up. The workshop will help you find your own ‘pause buttons’.

Why is breathing included? I have been breathing perfectly

well all my life

How are you breathing at this moment?  Modern living does affect our breathing and it tends to go unnoticed. Most people take shallow breaths that just enter the very top of their lungs, yet our lungs reach to the bottom of our rib cage.  They are there to be fully utilised.  The prime energy of the body is the breath and if we are not breathing at our optimum we are limiting our life force and the amount of energy that can reach every part of our body.

I do Yoga and practice the Yoga Breathing Techniques my teacher has taught me is that the same?

What Judith teaches is also Yoga – Kriya Yoga.  It is intended to clear all the energy blocks that prevent us experiencing union with universal energy.  Most people breathe at a very restricted level and what Judith teaches is to breathe as we all did babies – until we learned to restrict our breath.  This, of course, enhances our lives at every level, physical, mental, emotional and spiritual.

Opening up our breathing opens up our lives!

What Makes A Woman Feel Guilty?

I have been pondering this question for a while as it often comes up in conversation with women in a whole variety of situations.
 
It appears that as women get older they assume responsibility for parents, husbands/partners, children and even work colleagues.
 
Women who work full time and have children may feel guilty because they are unable to attend such ‘special’ events as school sports day or school plays/concerts.  Women who are full time mums and homemakers (no easy task) may feel guilty because they don’t earn any income from external sources.  Even women who have children and work part time may feel guilty, as they are unable to give 100% to anything.  They may be constantly rushing from school to work, to school, to home (or some combination of the foregoing).  Women without children may feel guilty that they are not spending enough time with their own parents, or their partner. And, so on….
 
“So,” I hear you say, “what’s the solution?”
 
Aside from waving my magic wand, I have a few suggestions you may wish to consider.
 
In my opinion, based on my research to date, women may wish to consider the choices they have.  A woman should take some time to consider what she really wants for herself, rather than just thinking of what others expect of her.  She should prioritise her ‘to do’ list and eliminate anything that is not absolutely essential.  She should be honest with herself as well as others when doing this exercise. 
 
This is really important:  Saying “no” to others on occasion will give you the freedom to say “yes” to yourself more often.  Saying ”yes” to your own needs will ultimately result in a happier you, which benefits those around you – wouldn’t you agree?  Just think about it this way - if you had the choice, would you rather spend time with someone who is constantly rushing around/unfocussed and maybe short tempered as a result; or spend time with someone who is able to take the time to smile and enjoy you, giving you his or her full attention.
 
LADIES, ELIMINATE THE GUILT AND BE KIND TO YOURSELF FIRST – YOU DESERVE IT!
Come along to our workshop and we will help you.
