Do you?
Apparently, when you’re writing blogs, you should build up a ‘bank’ of them- so you can post regularly and have some as a ‘back stop’ if you’re struggling for content… well, it’s been 8 weeks since I wrote the last one (which I only posted a week ago) and I’ve been putting this one off for ages.

My mate Ryan finished his ride, he rode from Perth to Sydney, on his own, without any help, in 18.5 days. I spoke to Ryan daily, often multiple times each day – we spoke about everything and nothing. It was fascinating to see how his physical and mental state could change so quickly, he could move from utter despair to being really positive – literally with a change in the weather. He completed something that very few of us would ever dream of, and do you know the one thing that he learnt about himself? After 5500km and 18.5 days on the bike?
DON’T SWEAT THE SMALL STUFF
I know this seems simple, but how many of you can actually practice this? It’s something I see often, clients presenting with issues, anxiety, worry and stress – often (in my opinion) out of proportion with the ‘stuff’ at stake.
What is actually important to you? Where should your priorities actually lie? Where do they lie now? What can you do about it? What WILL you do about it?
I’ve become fascinated with anxiety and how it affects people in the physical sense.
As we are all aware - stress and anxiety are becoming more and more prevalent in todays society, and the way this presents physically can catch many by surprise… breathing mechanics, sleeping patterns, stomach complaints, concentration levels, dizziness, tiredness, postural imbalances, physical pain (just to name a few).
What can we do about it?
The key to that question is WE – it’s hard to take control on your own. Being able to identify what’s going on and to highlight those smalls things that really aren’t that important, often requires assistance. Having techniques and tools to get a hold of your life when things are spinning out of your grasp really can make your life easier.
But don’t try and do it alone, Ryan was by himself on his bike, but we were only a phone call away
