So they say…when feeling stressed, anxious and in physical pain…

And before I stand corrected, meditation and relaxation techniques do have their place…

But what if …
* A truly stressful situation presents.
* Unpleasant feelings present in a public
setting.
* You are hyper-mobile and also neurodivergent.

Then,for some… breath work can actually heighten pain, tension and anxiety.

Fortunately there are other ways “to get out of your head and into your body “- (Steven C.Hayes- professor of psychology, Nevada)

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy(ACT)is one such avenue.
ACT has been shown to be outstandingly effective in helping people experience anxiety and other unpleasant feelings and uncomfortable thoughts…provided you put in the work…

✨Anxiety and Stress…

✅You CAN learn techniques to alter the way you respond to anxiety and stress.

💡 All that is required is some exposure to Acceptance and Commitment Training…

➡️And indeed, that is what a recent talk to the U18’s achieved.

🏃🏻Many tools and techniques involve movement of the body, which makes .act an ideal model to teach.

Acceptance and Commitment Training can change the way you think and behave, whether that be in the sporting environment, at school or at home…

✨USING THE BREATH TO RECONNECT WITH OUR HERE- AND- NOW EXPERIENCE…

❗️Note!The absence of the word “relaxation”…
✔️But rather, why don’t we use the breath to help us ground ourselves…
🧠Let’s recognise how we can go about our day not holding onto our muscles tightly…not clenching our jaws…not raising our shoulders to our ears…BUT…
😩You are upset…
😵‍💫Or overwhelmed…
😡Or feeling angry…
😳Or anxious…
😠Or full of judgement and criticism…

😮‍💨Then perhaps we could use the breath to remind us to “ease off the tension “…
🧠To notice the impact what “holding on tightly” does to our muscular and skeletal structures when we have had a bad day… when we dwell on how unjustly life has dished out unfairness…

The breath is not always about relaxation, but rather about connection…

✨FINDING THE TINY MOMENTS …✨

💪🏼Whilst strengthening my muscles…
👀 I noticed…
⛅️ The morning sun & plant display on the blind.
Flickering, patterns of light, nature.

So even when life gets tough (in this case working through my feelings of “uncomfortableness” as I undertake my disciplined strengthening exercises) one can still connect to the world around us.

What tiny moments can you NOTICE in your day today?

We are always surrounded by a sensory feast.

🗓️REGULARLY THROUGHOUT THE YEAR…

✍🏼The pen strikes the paper to modify existing presentations on psychological health and physical movement…

🧠Call it brainstorming, acquiring further knowledge, extracting research from recent study…

✨Where the end goal is to help pave the way for a greater understanding of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in…
✔️Sport
✔️Work
✔️In every day life

🧐As a great mentor once said to me, if I am doing the same presentation year after year, with no changes, I am not doing my job…

✨Launching the revamped .act
website…✨

Behind the scenes of running a successful Pilates business, many hours have been devoted to updating .act website.

Much adulation to in making this possible.
The tireless hours spent towards making this website as explicit as possible.
And at the core, acknowledging that using the principles of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy(ACT) one can find true satisfaction in life.

Merging ACT within the Pilates studio, has so many benefits, especially towards chronic pain and anxiety.

Are you ready to do something different?act

“ But I’m too busy”…
* “To move my body”
* “To exercise”
* “To practice learnt exercises at home”…

AND THE LIST GOES ON…

📋It’s easy to fill the day with…
“All the things I have to do”…e.g household chores
“All the things I could do”…e.g plan meals for the week.
“All the things I want to do”… e.g. stream the latest releases on television.

Maybe it’s time to SHIFT YOUR PERSPECTIVE…

You may “appear busy” to some, but deep down are you prioritising your time to the things that really matter, like your health and physical movement?
