We all have the power to make someone’s day a little brighter. A thoughtful message, a helping hand or a moment of real listening make a bigger difference than we realise. And caring for others does us good too 💞 actionforhappiness.org/altru… #AltruisticAugust

70,000 bowel cancers have been detected through NHS screening, from almost 85 million tests over the past 20 years. If you're aged 50 to 74, you'll be sent a home test kit. It takes minutes to do and could help spot cancer earlier. Read more england.nhs.uk/.../nhs-detec…

Happy International Women’s Day! Today we are celebrating all women worldwide, thank you for your contributions and for bringing so much happiness to our lives. We are especially grateful to the wonderful women who make our movement possible. Thank you to all our volunteers, course leaders, expert speakers, those who share the calendar or inspire others, and everyone who takes any action for happiness however big or small. Thank you for choosing to centre joy, care and wellbeing and thank you for building a happier, kinder world. Here is a link to a playlist where you can catch up on all the expert women speakers from our live events: youtube.com/playlist?list=PL… This year the UN theme is “Rights. Justice. Action. For ALL Women and Girls”, and it calls for action to dismantle all barriers to equal justice: discriminatory laws, weak legal protections, and harmful practices and social norms that erode the rights of women and girls. The UN found that in nearly 70 per cent of surveyed countries, women face more barriers accessing justice than men. 44% of countries do not have laws that guarantee equal pay. 3 in 4 countries still permit child marriage cutting short childhoods, education and futures. We celebrate the women’s movement worldwide and we are grateful to our supporters for choosing equality. #internationalwomensday #equality #justice #happiness #wellbeing

⚠️ Most people don’t regain weight because they lack discipline… they regain it because no one taught them THIS. You finish a diet. The scale drops. You feel proud. And then slowly… silently… the weight comes back. Not because you failed — but because weight loss isn’t just about food. It’s about **muscle, movement, and habits your body can sustain**. In this video, we uncover the science most diets ignore: 🔥 Why muscles work like medicine for your metabolism 🚶 How physical activity protects your weight loss long after dieting ends ⚡ The hidden difference between slow-twitch and fast-twitch muscle fibres 💪 Why walking, strength training, and HIIT each play a unique role 🧘 The overlooked power of balance and flexibility And the real game-changer: building habits that actually stick using Atomic Habits principles: ✅ Make it Obvious ✅ Make it Easy ✅ Make it Attractive ✅ Make it Rewarding This isn’t about extreme workouts or perfect motivation. It’s about creating a body that *wants* to stay healthy. youtu.be/z9h-lhU8lcY?si=oVmO… If you’ve ever lost weight and gained it back — this might change how you see fitness forever. 🎥 Watch now and start building results that last.
