#movember Day 30 Being a leader is hard. We are taught to remain calm in stressful situations. We take on other people’s stress. We don’t like to ask for help because we view it as a weakness. We have the other stressors of life. Find your community to help avoid burning out.

#movember Day 29 We are all recommended to move our body 150 minutes a week vigorously at a level. If you aren’t someone who normally enjoys moving then take a moment and think how to start. When we want to make changes it is good to start small to make it sustainable.

#motivationmonday intrinsic motivator is shown to be more effective. This means we do better if we aren’t motivated by external factors like prizes, winning.But rather if we have a “why”. Joy in the process or journey. Something that feels that it has a purpose. What is your why?

#movember Day 27 1 in 4 men have an eating disorder. You are not alone. For men it is often linked to exercise addiction or compulsion. It is always linked to low self esteem and feelings of shame and guilt.

#movember Day 26 #socialsaturday Connection can be with other people, to the world around us and to ourselves. Isolation is related to our physical health, not just our mental health.

#movember Day 25 Getting into nature is another of life’s real essentials. We need it for our physical and mental wellbeing. It has been shown to reduce our cortisol, lower our blood pressure, improve our immunity, reduce anxiety, treat depression. It is there and it is free.

#movember Day 24 Nutrition impacts our physical and mental health. So when you feel rubbish and want to reach for beige, try and catch yourself. Try and pick that piece of fruit, that glass of water, that bowl full of goodness. Know that you will feel better for it.
