POSTURE RESET TIME!
 
Feeling stiff after hours at your desk?
Take 30 seconds for a quick posture reset - your neck, shoulders, and spine will thank you later!
 
Try this:
1. Stand tall, feet hip-width apart
2. Roll your shoulders up, back, and down
3. Lift your chest and gently tuck your chin
4. Take 3 deep breaths and feel your body lengthen
 
Movement doesn’t need to be complicated - small, frequent resets throughout your day help reduce tension, improve focus, and boost energy.
 
Set a reminder every hour to move, stretch, and reset your posture!

🤔 What Is Secondary Gain (and why it matters)

In psychology, secondary gain refers to the hidden, often unconscious benefits we get from staying stuck in a problem. It’s not about faking symptoms, it’s about the subtle “rewards” that reinforce them.

Examples:

🔹Chronic pain might excuse someone from stressful obligations.

🔹Anxiety might bring extra care or reassurance.

🔹Depression might lower expectations from others.

🔹Fatigue might justify social withdrawal.

These gains aren’t manipulative, they’re often unconscious. But recognising them can be a powerful step towards change.

☀️ Sunlight isn’t just a mood booster - it’s a biological necessity. Just 10–30 minutes a few times a week can transform your health!

☀️ The science-backed benefits of sunlight:

🦴 Vitamin D synthesis: UV rays trigger vitamin D production, essential for bone strength, immune function, and inflammation control.

🥹Mood elevation: Sunlight increases serotonin, helping regulate mood and reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety.

😴 Better sleep: Morning light exposure helps reset your circadian rhythm, improving sleep quality.

🩸 Lower blood pressure: Sunlight prompts the skin to release nitric oxide, which relaxes blood vessels.

🥰 Skin condition support: Controlled sun exposure can help with psoriasis, eczema, and acne.

☀️ Sunlight isn’t just about feeling good, it’s about functioning better. From mental clarity to metabolic health, it’s a free, natural intervention with wide-reaching effects.

📌 Aim for 10–30 minutes of sunlight exposure, 2–3 times a week. Early morning or late afternoon is ideal. Always balance benefits with skin protection.

🌿🌲Green Spaces and Health

Spending time in green spaces can do more than just lift your mood. Parks, gardens, and tree-lined streets play a role in shaping our health. Research shows that being around nature can reduce stress, lower blood pressure, and improve mental health.

Green spaces also encourage movement. Whether it’s a walk, run, cycle, or simply playing with kids outdoors, access to nature makes physical activity more inviting and
enjoyable. Regular movement in these environments helps improve heart and lung health, as can also help with weight management.

Communities with more green space often experience better air quality, reduced noise pollution, and stronger social connections as people gather outdoors. Investing in nature
in our neighbourhoods helps build healthier, happier, and more connected lives for everyone.

💝Our Team’s Love Languages! 💛

Around here, love languages aren’t just theory - they’re personality! From acts of service like making a cup of tea, to physical activity that doubles as both exercise and bonding time, our team expresses care in wonderfully unique ways.

Some of us show love by doing the dishes (yes, really!), others by organizing a group workout or quietly making your day easier. It’s these little gestures that make our workplace feel like a second home 🍀

🏃‍♂️ Exercise for Cancer 🏋🏻‍♀️
Exercise can play an important part in cancer management. Finding safe, sustainable exercise options will help you feel stronger and has many benefits.

Engaging in exercise during and after treatment can help reduce fatigue, improve strength and balance, boost
mood, and support everyday function.

Exercise guidelines for cancer: recommend aiming towards 150 minutes of moderate intensity aerobic activity per week (eg. brisk walking or cycling) or 75 minutes of vigorous intensity aerobic exercise, plus 2 strength-training days targeting major muscle groups. If
you’re managing treatment side-effects, start with a smaller volume – even a one or two short walks each week and a light resistance session can be beneficial.

The best way to approach exercise for cancer management include choosing activities you enjoy, considering how you feel, and adjusting things where possible instead of stopping entirely. It’s important to discuss exercise with your care team, especially if you have issues such as bone issues, lymphoedema or neuropathy. Start small and simple,
build when you can, and remember that every step forward counts.

🌽🍒The Importance of Fibre in a Balanced Diet

Fibre might not get as much attention as protein or carbs, but it’s one of the most
important nutrients for your overall health. Found in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, beans, nuts, and seeds, fibre keeps your digestive system healthy, helps you feel fuller for longer, and reduces colon cancer risk.

Beyond digestion, fibre plays a key role in managing cholesterol and blood sugar levels.

Soluble fibre, found in foods such as oats, apples, and beans, helps lower “bad” LDL cholesterol, while insoluble fibre, found in whole grains and vegetables, help keep your gut healthy and prevents constipation.

The recommended daily fibre intake is around 25–30 grams for adults. Here are some ways you can add more fibre to your diet – swap white bread for whole grain bread, add an extra serve of veggies to meals, add chia seeds to yoghurt, or snack on fruit and nuts
instead of processed foods. Small changes add up, and your body (and gut) will benefit.
