Beat Stress With Reflexology

Our Reflexology and Acupuncture Team, Martine and Natalie Vegoda explain how the ancient art of reflexology can be used as an incredibly effectively treatment for stress...

STRESS CAN AFFECT ANYBODY.

[ WORRY, FRUSTRATION, SHAKING, INSOMNIA………

[ DEPENDING ON YOUR PERSONALITY, IT IS VERY MUCH AN INDIVIDUAL PERCEPTION.

[ IT IS HOW YOUR BODY REACTS TO EXTERNAL PRESSURES THAT YOU PERCEIVE TO BE DIFFICULT OR UNCOMFORTABLE AND IT CAN CREATE BOTH PHYSICAL AND EMOTIONAL CHANGES.

[ SOME STRESS IS HELPFUL IN HELPING YOU TO PERFORM AT YOUR BEST BUT STRESS BECOMES A PROBLEM WHEN INSTEAD OF HELPING YOU TO PERFORM, IT BECOMES COUNTERPRODUCTIVE.

[ STRESS OVER A LONG PERIOD OF TIME CAN DEVELOP INTO CHRONIC STRESS AND IT IS THIS THAT CAN MAKE US QUITE UNWELL.    

How you can use Reflexology to offset stress....     

[ REFLEXOLOGY CAN BE A NATURAL, NON-INVASIVE OPTION TO OFFSETTING THE EFFCTS OF STRESS ON YOUR HEART AND OVERALL HEALTH.

[TREATING THE BODY  MIND AND SPIRIT AS A COHESIVE SYSTEM, IT ENDEAVORS TO GET TO THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM NOT ITS SYMPTOMS.

[ WITH ITS ROOTS DATING BACK TO ANCIENT EGYPT, REFLEXOLOGY WORKS ON THE PREMISE THAT THE MAJOR ORGANS, NERVES AND GLANDS THAT MAKE UP THE BODY ARE CONNECTED TO REFLEX POINTS IN THE SOLES, TOPS AND SIDES OF THE FEET.

[ THROUGH THE SEQUENTIAL APPLICATION OF GENTLE COMPRESSION TECHNIQUES APPLIED TO SPECIFIC AREAS OVER THE FEET, REFLEXOLOGY POSSESSES THE CAPACITY TO CANCEL OUT THE EFFCTS OF STRESS WORKING TOWARDS STIMULATING YOUR BODY’S OWN HEALING PROCESSES WHILE HELPING YOUR BODY TO REACH A STATE OF DEEP RELAXATION IN A NATURAL WAY.

[THE TECHNIQUE OF REFLEXOLOGY IS OFTEN USED AS A TYPE OF PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE AND TODAY IT IS INCREASINGLY BEING INTEGRATED INTO TRADITIONAL MEDICAL PRACTICES.

Prawn Thai Green Curry with Noodles and Kale

Here's our latest delicious recipe from our friends at Tootoomoo...

2 teaspoons olive oil 

1/3 cup chopped green onions 

1 tablespoon chopped fresh garlic 

1 tablespoon chopped fresh ginger 

2 tablespoons Thai green curry paste 

1 1/4 cups matchstick-cut carrots 

1/2 cup unsalted chicken stock 

1 (13.5-ounce) can light coconut milk 

6 cups packed chopped kale (about 1/2 bunch) 

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 pound peeled medium sized prawns

1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro 

1 teaspoon grated lime rind 

1 1/2 teaspoons fresh lime juice

2. Fold in kale; sprinkle with salt. Cook 3 minutes or until kale is wilted and tender. Add shrimp; cook 3 minutes or until shrimp are done. Remove from heat; top with cilantro, lime rind, and juice. 

3. Prepare rice noodles according to package directions. Drain and rinse with cool water. Drain and set aside.

HIITgirl is coming to All About You!...

We’re delighted to announce that we’ve teamed up with women’s fitness brand, Hiitgirl, to bring their amazing workouts to our studio. Launching on Monday June 30th you’ll notice a glam new studio makeover and a brand new timetable, with lots of new sessions and some old favourites. If you’re wondering what it all means here are a few answers to questions you may have.

 

Who are Hiitgirl?

Founded in 2011 by fitness entrepreneurs Susan and Stuart Dyson, Hiitgirl started with a simple question:

                                   

‘How can busy women spend as little time as possible working out and still get amazing results? After speaking with lots of women it became clear that they simply didn’t have the time or interest for endless cardio and expensive gym memberships The majority wanted short and effective female-friendly workouts with inspiring trainers, and so we created Hiitgirl - the best workout for women. Ever.’

Check out their website at www.hiitgirl.com to find out more.

What happens to my favourite classes?

We’re really looking forward to the new and exciting classes that Hiitgirl will bring, but we’re planning to keep some of your favourites on the new timetable. Keep an eye on our website for more details.

How will it affect my membership?

All memberships from July onwards will be with Hiitgirl Ltd and I’m pleased to confirm that they will keep the price the same for existing members in good standing. There will be some different terms and conditions which we can take you through if you wish to continue your membership. Please pop in and see us to discuss the various options.

When does it start?

The new Hiitgirl at AAY studio will start running sessions from Monday 30th June.

How can I try it?

Starting from Monday 9th June, Hiitgirl are running free showcase sessions where you can try  everything from super sweaty cardio to their unique Yoga brands - Jagati and Yogabomb.

Everyone at AAY is really excited about this new development and if there’s anything else we can help with please don’t hesitate to get in touch. We look forward to seeing you in a Hiitgirl workout very soon!

Are You Summer Ready?

Your summer holiday is fast approaching and I’m pretty sure that right now your mind is focused on how you will look and feel when it’s time to take the layers off.

Feel like it’s a little late to get started on a healthy eating and exercise plan? Are you starting to panic when thinking about yourself in your summer clothing?

Well you’ll be happy to know all is not lost. 

Sure it may feel a little late to get yourself started on a summer shake-up plan but however much time you have left can be used wisely to create the change you desire.   I am not suggesting for one minute that it is all about the aesthetic, but if the aesthetic is a means to bring about a happier you at this time of year then there are ways you can big about big changes in a short space of time.

As the time is limited you will first need to decide, act then commit.   Decide what it is you actually want to achieve, begin to act, then commit on seeing it through.  These essential ingredients will go some way in making your holiday a happier one, and by knowing you made that last ditch effort you can go away fully deserving that pat on the back rather than feeling like you wasted away valuable time.

Ok so you’re still with me, great! Where to begin I hear you ask? Firstly write out how many days you have till you go away and you can now work back to today and plan the amount of time you can commit to this.

If you are to have the biggest impact on your health and fat loss in the time you have remaining till you depart these shores then you need to know the most impactful action you can take is to cut out all of what your liver deems a toxin.  Avoiding the likes of alcohol, wheat, gluten, caffeine, sugar and processed foods will help you shed the pounds super quick and by adding a healthy 3-4 litres of water a day you can be safe in the knowledge that you are on the path to success.  A good night sleep is vitally important too and a topic which is to be discussed sometime soon.

To some it may seem a little drastic, but of course because you haven’t been too kind to yourself over the last few months so you’ll need all the impetus to get the new you ready for beach time. 

You may have realised that I haven’t yet spoken of exercise.  It too is important and at this time of year the team here at All About You are busy applying the tried and tested fat loss programs, which have so far been working a treat.  With our home workout plans to help get our wonderful clients moving more at home we are seeing better results than ever before.  I know it sounds too good to be true but don’t just take my word for it.  If you've read this far then no doubt you are interested in finding out what our Summer Shake up plan can do for you so here’s what you’ll need to do to get involved.

Call up the studio on 020 8348 9706 and arrange your free consultation with a member of our team so we can tell you all about what we can do for you in time for Summer.

Health and happiness,

Mario.

The Highgate Mile

Over 250 fun runners joined us in Waterlow Park on Sunday 23rd March to help us Raise Money for Sports Relief, along with thousands of others across the UK. 

Old and Young, families and even a few dogs joined us to run the circuit of one of the most beautiful parks in London. 

Runners were able to choose from the 6 mile, 3 mile, and one mile options. The day was a great success and the weather was very kind to us even if the hills of Highgate weren't! 

To absolutely everyone who took part, we can’t thank you enough. Because of your amazing generosity the current Sport Relief total stands at £53,370,743 - But you can still donate and even the smallest amount of money will help change lives for those less fortunate across the globe! 

Sports Relief is a charity from Comic Relief in association with BBC Sport which brings together sport and entertainment to raise money for vulnerable people in both the UK and in the world's poorest countries. 

In the UK, money raised helps give shelter to homeless young people and protection to those living on those living with domestic abuse, and provides life saving vaccines, clean water and education for those across the world. The heart of the campaign is the 'Sport Relief Mile' which involves members of the public doing their bit for charity.

Spin-a-thon Recovery

What an amazing weekend!

Thank you to everyone that came along to support our 24 hour event! We had around 300 people call in at various points over the weekend and we have so far managed to raise a great deal of money for the Alexandra Wylie Tower Foundatation. If you couldn't make it down and would like to make a contribution then please head over to their JUST GIVING page and help us boost the final total!

If you DID  join us then you may be feeling a bit sore today...

Don't worry, we're here to help ;-)

We chose to host the spin-a-thon because we hoped to encourage, young, old, elite and novice cyclists to join in and do their bit - and we did just that, with a few dogs joining in as well for good measure!

Although cycling is a great way to get fit and feel great it can play havoc on your hips!

You see, most of us already spend too much time sat down, but sitting down whilst getting your muscles contracting will shorten the muscles around your hips even more setting you up for injury and back pain.

We'd rather you donated your hard earned cast to The Alexandra Wylie Tower Foundation than your favourite Osteopath - so if you are a little bit sore today then try this one stretch to resolve it....

Kneel on your right knee with your toes relaxed and place the left foot flat on the floor in front of you. The knee should be bent at 90 degrees and sit directly above the ankle.

Squeeze the glutes and push the hips forwards slightly until you feel the tension in your right hip and thigh.

You can extend one or both arms over your head and slightly arch your back to increase the stretch further. Hold this position for 30 seconds and then switch sides.

In my opinion this is The King of Stretches and would help the 80% of the population who suffer from back pain greatly!



If you have any feedback on the weekend or would like any more health and fitness information or advice, we'd love to hear from you!

24 Hour Spin-a-thon

If you can join us for an hour or two or even just call in for a few minutes to cheers us on we would really appreciate your support!
