Happy June! How is this month unfolding for you?
I’ve just returned from a brilliant weekend presenting at the Big Retreat in Wales. It’s such an amazing festival, something for everyone in the most stunning location. You can find out more here and book for 24th – 27th May 2024!! Any questions do let me know.
Our daily habits mould us
(Atomic Habits talks about this, and author James Clear’s newsletter is worth a sign up), so be mindful of the habits you are creating and thoughts you are thinking. I don’t get this ‘right’ the whole time by a long stretch, but the awareness and commitment is key to evolving in chaos. And opportunities, hope and possibility always lie in chaos, and less often in the moments of joy, which are just this, joy (to be shared and valued deeply).
7th June was Global Running Day, do you like to run, starting to, injured or hate it!? I loved doing the Himalayan Ultra 100 miler and have a few ideas of races, how about you? I’d love to know. For an easy 10km Your Way over a week, the Sunflower Suicide Charity are hosting this event in June – I’d love you to join us, any where in the world. I’ll be speaking and running a workshop at the Bristol Running Show on Sunday 16th July, tickets are free here.
If you would like support with Autumn training plans, core and strength or mindset and motivation pop me a message, we offer 4 – 16 week training plans, mindset pre and post race, injury rehab and much more.
June’s wellness check in to action…. the open road (pic below in Scottie Land and Big Retreat Wales)
Make the time over the next couple of days to do this quickly and simply – if you did May’s you can reflect on the changes. If you need support, just pop me a message and let me know how you are flowing with it.
Put today’s date and time at the top of the page:
1. Your Mind Body Check in…
– How are you feeling, energy, movement, posture?
– How is your brain, mood, thoughts, stress?
– How is your sleep, depth, quality?
– How is your digestion, cravings, hydration?
– How is your digital time, conversations, recharge time?
Score out of 10, and/or write comments.
Choose 3 specific areas to change or focus on for the week ahead and review every week if time.
Put today’s date and time, mood at top of the next page.
2. Your Monthly Reflection and focus to flow forwards
Past month:
– What have you loved, felt happiness about in the last month?
– What have you overcome and learned in the last month?
– What are you resisting or committing to?
This month: – What are your 4 priorities to make happen, how, why?
– What will you decide and commit to changing habit or thought wise?
Letting go and growth
– Who will you connect with, ask for help/give support?
– Why does this matter to you?
– What, who and where relaxes you, make time for this
Write it down, reflect and then commit.
Be specific, simplify to one thing if I’m overwhelmed, get your family and friends involved, and have fun with it.
Repeat this every month…
and notice the patterns which come up, the growth and change and celebrate each month. Being kind and courageous with yourself. You matter. Journaling, pen and paper is proven to help calm your thoughts, focus your mind and grow your intention to change. Change is uncomfortable, but to change we have to change. Give it a go for 3 weeks or months to give it a chance and I promise you will be surprised.
What’s coming up
We have our Summer Solstice Yoga Nidra online on Tues 20th June, with donations to Sunflower Suicide Support, Chase the Sun Challenge and Holly Hedge Animal Sanctuary.
Gail is off on a well deserved holiday mid to end of June, so make sure you book up your treatments here.
