How much do you love your job? I have only ever worked in a few jobs I disliked. For the first 5 years I was in the workforce I hated every job I had. My body was stressed before I even stepped into the office and it was because I wasn’t enjoying my work. Now I can’t think of anything more horrible. When I became a journalist I thrived. While there were many stresses like deadlines, I had passion and drive because I loved what I did. Same with the job I am in now, except I don’t have any stress this job, wait there is one stress... but it’s a good stress to the body. It’s called exercise. The rest of my day runs smoothly because I understand what my body needs and when. I understand when it needs to move, eat, be mentally stimulated and need mental rest. It’s called chronobiology and it’s one of the most important parts of health. Yes, more important than exercise and food. So I have your attention now...... . . . #personalisedhealth #ph360 #shaewellness #ph360me #shaewellness30 #chronobiology #stress #lifestyle #lifestylechange #health #healthischanging #geteducated #knowyourbody https://www.instagram.com/p/B2Os1s-nYGb/?igshid=u083rrohilg3

This weekend I took that step backwards in my health journey. But it was all for a good cause. I flew to Byron on Friday for a hens weekend for my sister in-law. So definitely a good cause. Personalising your health is not about strict diets and training regimes. It’s about finding a healthy balance where you can still have the things you love as well as reaching those life goals. When we arrived we headed out for dinner @themezclub I ate more then my tummy could hold and drank till I was happy. Saturday I took that next step forward with an amazing lunch put on by one of the girls staying with us. Super healthy and very yummy. But having the night out before, staying up late, plus eating outside my food range and my body was starting to scream at me. I do the cha cha at least once a month. It makes me feel alive and reminds me why good health is a far greater lifestyle. And without the little reminders life would gets quite boring. Don’t punish yourself for having fun! Enjoy the cha cha and live up to your full potential. . . . #ph360 #shae #shaewellness #shaewellness30 #personalisedhealth #kaizen #kaizenwellness #lifebalance #worklifebalance #worklife #rest #rejuvenation #listentoyourbody #mindbodysoul #health #holistic https://www.instagram.com/p/B2GjFxeHpY1/?igshid=ratrog9httht

When I was a teenager I lived in the moment. When I was in my 20’s I lived to build a career. When I reached my 30’s it was about work life balance and how to be in my best health. I am almost 40 and already I am thinking about my legacy left on this earth. What will my message to the world be? I have been working on a personalised health project for almost two years now. It’s a health coaching program to help people learn about their body and give them the tools to implement life changes to help guide them to a healthy lifestyle . I started this journey so I could learn about myself but when I started talking to others and sharing what I had learned I found it was helping them too. I want the world to know, you are all unique. Every little bit of you. What we see on the outside is a direct reflection of your health on the inside. Research is now telling us chronobiology or the science of time plays a major factor in our health. It’s more important than exercise and nutrition alone. Health is not a 30 day challenge or a six week diet. It’s far more than that. It’s healthy relationships, vibrant communities, equality, challenging your brain at the right time, relaxation and understanding etc Good health is not one decision. It’s making the decision time and time again to eat nutritious food, exercise, be friendly to the waiter, take a nap when you need it, set boundaries when they’re being crossed and building communities with a group of like minded people. This is my message to the world “It’s all about you” Live up to your best health at a biological level. COMING SOON If you would like some more information about the release of “It’s all about you” Personalised health coaching, e-mail me at [email protected] with ‘It’s all about me’ in the subject line and I will add you to the list to get updates on the release. . . . #shaewellness #ph360 #cvph #corrievan #personalisedhealth #fit #fitness #exercise #nutrition #diet #social #environment #chronobiology #science #health #shaewellness30 #corporatehealth https://www.instagram.com/p/B1_MIzXHVCa/?igshid=1pndp274pt8m9

This is the best snack. For someone like me who snacks all the time it’s great to do up a batch for the week. If snacking is not great for your body a piece of this is great to top off a meal. I find it’s perfect if you have a sweet tooth. It takes away those sweet cravings. Here is the recipe. If you have a Shae profile make sure you substitute the ingredients that are best for you right now. 20 ounces Blueberry nondairy yogurt 1 bowl ful Strawberries, sliced and cut into X’s, O’s and hearts (use mini cookie cutters) 1/2 cup Blueberries 1/2 cup Pomegranate arils Instructions 1 Line an 20×20 cm pan with parchment paper. 2 Pour the nondairy yogurt into the pan and spread out evenly. 3 Place the fruit on top, gently pressing down just a little in order to secure it in the yogurt. 4 Freeze for a few hours or until set. 5 Cut into squares. Prep time does not include freezing time. . . . #shaewellness #food #healthyfood #health #foodie #berries #tasty #snacks #dessert #desserts #foods #foodstagrams #foodies https://www.instagram.com/p/B16EiR6Hd-x/?igshid=1dpa84fuzromz

Giving up is just not an option. I’ve learnt this the hard way. I gave up many times. Why? Because I was scared. Scared of the unknown, scared of success, scared of doing it on my own, scared of being out of my comfort zone. But do you know what happens on the other side of that? Once you get past all the stories you make up in your head about why you’re not good enough is an amazing journey of learning, growing, finding your passion and living beyond the walls you once put up for yourself. Try it. I promise it’s worth it. . . . #shaewellness #ph360 #cvph #corrievan #failure #failurequotes #failureisnotanoption #success #successquotes #successfulquotes #successfulliving #successfulwomen #personalisedhealth https://www.instagram.com/p/B13ekWCn87L/?igshid=dnkzua8msmrj

The same goes for the humans. If you’re not blooming then you have not put your body in the right environment. Whether it be food or exercise, the right social or environmental, the right environment that challenges your brain. To be in your best health you need to put your body in the right place to thrive. So often we assume good nutrition and exercise will fix this but this is only a small part of the equation. There are many other factors that come into play and some are more important than food and exercise. Some bodies need connection to be fulfilled, some need alone time and to switch off while others need community. Everyone is different, everyone is unique and everyone need compassion and understand from the world. Can you imagine a world like this. I can. . . . #ph360for2050 #ph360 #shaewellness #shae #health #wellness #corporatehealth #fitness #food #environment #social #mind #personalisedhealth https://www.instagram.com/p/B1iv3g_n3Sw/?igshid=4dwjzyom7win

Are you an early bird or a night owl? I have always been an early bird. But waking up early means you need to go to bed by a reasonable hour. That’s normally around 9 for me, if I want to feel at my best the next day. But, as a mother I find myself pushing that time out just so I can have me time, to read or watch a television show and before I know it 10pm comes and goes. The next day I feel shattered so I drink coffee (for those who know about ph360 coffee is not great for Activators), only one or two but enough so I feel like I am buzzing all day and by the time I reach 5pm I am wired, overtired and a little cranky. All this for a couple of hours to myself in the evening. Sound familiar! The funny thing is if I listened to my body or followed my chronobiology and went to bed at 9pm, I normally sleep much better and wake up early, go for a run, feel amazing and ready to take the day head on. I get twice as much done at work because I feel great, my kids are perfect because they don’t have to deal with a crabby mother and then I don’t feel like I need to stay up late just to get away from the world. Chronobiology is so powerful and not just for sleep. It affects the times you eat food, the times you exercise and the time you are most productive during the day. In many cases it can be more powerful than the type of food you eat. It’s the base to synchrony in our bodies. But is often overlooked because it’s not understood. . . . #personalisedhealth #ph360 #shaewellness #shaewellness30 #chronobiology #bodyclock #scienceoftime #nightowl #earlybird #health #lifestyle #life https://www.instagram.com/p/B1d3NSOnbX2/?igshid=1ejoztejeqozd

I used to be one of those people who when on a health binge if I stuffed up and accidentally ate a cup cake 😉 or ordered McDonald’s my whole eating well plan was over for the whole day. That was my excuse to continually eat bad for the rest of the day because tomorrow is a new day. Right! 😩 I learned very quickly how terrible this mindset is. How it’s a mindset that gives me the excuse to continually sabotage all the good I have done to my body. What I realised over time and especially when I got into the personalised health space is that it’s ok to eat a cupcake and it’s ok to have McDonald’s... once. What makes it terrible is when I used that excuse to then continually destroy my body with bad decisions. One bad decision is ok. In fact I plan those bad decisions into my week three times. Yes three times I am allowed to eat an unhealthy meal. But once I have had that unhealthy meal or treat I then eat well again. This means I have made 18 good decisions to eat healthy and 3 bad decisions to eat unhealthy during that week. Choosing to eat healthy is not one decision. It’s many times during the week that you have to make that decision over and over. When you plan unhealthy meals into your week you can avoid the guilt and shame that goes with those decisions when they’re not planned and end in a junk food fest. Because now is another chance to get it right, this minute, this hour, this day. Not tomorrow, not in summer or when I get back from holidays. Now! You can choose now. Because now will get you the results you want. . . . #shaewellness30 #shaewellness #healthyfood #healthyfit #healthyrecipes #choices #wellbeing #wellbeingcoach #healthybody #healthyimage #food #quotestoliveby #foodquotes #fit #fitness https://www.instagram.com/p/B1bRhG2HrWc/?igshid=17w95gisz1gpn
