We can learn so much from Japanese psychology when it comes to health and wellbeing 🌿

From concepts like *ikigai* (purpose), *kaizen* (small consistent improvements), and *hara hachi bu* (eating to 80% full), there’s such a powerful emphasis on balance, awareness, and respect for the body. It’s not about extremes — it’s about how we approach life, diet, movement, and mindset in a way that’s sustainable and deeply human.

Eastern philosophy has always resonated with me, and it sits right at the heart of Purple P 💜

Blended with my love of the natural world and a never-ending scientific curiosity, it’s helped to shape how I think about wellbeing as a whole system — mind, body, environment and purpose all working together.

Purple P is about slowing down, tuning in, and building health from the inside out. Small shifts. Better questions. A more intentional way of living.

Sometimes the most powerful changes don’t come from doing more…
They come from doing things differently ✨

🌿 Start Your Weekend with Calm, Strength & Flow🌿

If your week feel full, fast or a little overwhelming, my Saturday morning Tai Chi Qigong session is the perfect way to reset your body and mind.

This gentle, flowing practice supports your health, relaxation and emotional balance, helping you release tension and reconnect with yourself before the weekend even begins.

✨ Why morning practice is so powerful

- It wakes up the body with ease and softness
- Clears the mind before the day gathers pace
- Boosts energy without stress or strain
- Sets a calm, grounded tone for the whole weekend
- Helps you feel centred, steady and ready for whatever you have planned

Here’s what some of my lovely clients have shared:

💬 “I feel lighter and calmer for the rest of the day.”
💬 “It’s the first time all week I’ve actually stopped and breathed.”
💬 “My body feels open, my mind feels clear — it’s such a beautiful way to start the weekend.”
💬 “I didn’t realise how much tension I was holding until it melted away.

Tai Chi Qigong is suitable for all levels — slow, mindful, and deeply nourishing. You’ll leave feeling lighter, clearer and more connected.

If you’re ready to create a healthier, calmer rhythm in your life, come join us this Saturday morning at 8am at The Holistic Tai Chi Qigong Academy in Hinckley. Your weekend will thank you.

Move. Breathe. Restore and Reset

I love helping people feel truly empowered and calm in the water 💙

Not just teaching how to swim, but how to understand their own bodies, the science behind effortless movement and why relaxation and calm breathing are everything.

When we regulate the nervous system, swimming stops being a struggle and becomes meditative, mindful movement. This is where it beautifully aligns with my qigong practice — ease, awareness and flow. Effective movement and training that works with your biology, not against it.

This morning I had the joy of coaching three very different clients to understand their own bodies, breathe calmly and make small, intentional improvements — the essence of Kaizen, the Japanese philosophy of continuous improvement.

Kaizen teaches us that transformation doesn’t come from forcing or pushing, but from consistent, gentle refinements made with awareness. One calmer breath. One softer movement. One clearer sensation in the body. Over time, these small shifts compound into effortless swimming and greater confidence in the water.

And what a gift to practice this in such a beautiful, calm space 🌊

Empowering you to feel stronger, more capable and more at home in your body — through mindful movement, nervous system regulation and respect for our natural biology at whatever stage in life — this is why I do what I do.

We’ve just come through the 10 darkest weeks of the year — and that’s not just symbolic, it’s biological.

Light is the primary regulator of our circadian rhythms. In winter, reduced daylight — especially in the morning — delays our internal clock. Melatonin stays higher for longer, serotonin production can drop and sleep, energy, mood and motivation often suffer. This is why winter can feel heavier, slower and more effortful.

For some, this shows up as Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), a clinically recognised response to prolonged low light. For many others, it’s a milder version of the same thing — not illness, just human nervous systems adapting to winter conditions.

This is also where the idea of wintering fits so well. Nature slows down, conserves energy and turns inward — and our bodies do too. Rest, lower output and reduced drive aren’t flaws; they’re seasonal biology.

Now the shift begins. As daylight increases, especially in the mornings, our circadian rhythms start to realign. Melatonin switches off earlier, sleep–wake timing improves and mood and energy often lift gradually as the days grow longer.

A simple, science-backed tip
Get outside into natural light as early in the day as you can — even 10–20 minutes on a cloudy morning helps signal your brain that the day has begun. Consistency matters more than brightness.

Spring isn’t here yet — but the light is returning, and our bodies know how to follow 🌱

What if we gently shifted the way we view each stage of life? ✨

What if every phase was not something to “get through,” but an evolution—quietly shaping us into who we are becoming?

As a menopause coach, I see firsthand how powerful mindset truly is. Menopause has long been framed as a season of loss or decline, but it doesn’t have to be that way. When we change the story, we change the experience.

In the East, there is deep reverence for life transitions. In Japan, discovering your true purpose is called ikigai—the reason you rise each morning with meaning.

Menopause itself is known as “kōnwenki,” which translates to “renewal years.” A time when women step into deeper wisdom, embodied strength, and a more authentic sense of self. This perspective is so important. 🌿

Menopause isn’t the end of youth—it’s the beginning of truth. A homecoming to yourself. A moment where intuition sharpens, boundaries strengthen, and purpose becomes clearer than ever before.

When we honour this transition, we allow ourselves to move forward with grace, confidence, and self-trust.

Menopause is not a loss. It’s a powerful, well-earned arrival.

✨ Celebrating another empowered woman building strength — inside and out ✨💪

Moving into the gym.

Debbie has been coming to me for 1:1 PT sessions at my private wellbeing studio and the results speak for themselves 💪

✔️ Inches lost
✔️ Muscle gained
✔️ Body toned
✔️ Confidence growing

The next step in Debbie’s journey was empowering her with the confidence and knowledge to continue her strength training in a gym environment. Although she was nervous about making the change, she felt completely welcomed at Romans Leisure and Spa 🙌 and she absolutely rocked her first gym session there 🔥

She now has a 4-week strength programme and the confidence to train in a space where she feels comfortable and supported.

Whilst we won’t be doing the intimate 1:1 sessions in my wellbeing studio for now, I’ll still be supporting Debbie through the app and our private WhatsApp with a full review planned in the gym in 4 weeks 📲💬

If you’re thinking of moving into a gym environment, Romans Leisure and Spa is a great place to start your strength journey - warm, welcoming and equipped with everything you need to get stronger 💪

If you would like support and guidance to feel confident using gym equipment, or would like a programme to make your gym sessions more focussed I would love to help 💜

✨ 𝐀 𝐡𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐜 𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐟𝐭 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧 — 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞.✨

For the first time ever, menopause is no longer an “invisible issue” at work. It’s now explicitly recognised in UK employment law marking a powerful step toward dignity, inclusion, and real support for millions of employees.

For the first time, menopause is specifically referenced in UK employment law — meaning the issue is no longer only covered indirectly by equality or health & safety law. This is part of a broader overhaul of workplace rights included in the Employment Rights Act 2025, now law as of 18 December 2025

Large employers will have duties to act proactively and publish a menopause action plan as part of broader Equality Action Plans. They will need to set out what they are doing to support employees experiencing menopause and to address gender equality issues, including menopause. These action plans are a legal obligation for qualifying employers and will contain specific requirements and potential penalties for non-compliance.

From April 2026, employers can start preparing and voluntarily publishing plans, with mandatory requirements kicking in the following year.

What menopause action plans mean in practice

Employers must think ahead — not just respond reactively to problems. Plans might include:

🎯Workplace policies and procedures for menopause support
🎯Flexible working or adjusted duties for affected staff
🎯Training for managers on menopause impacts
🎯Physical adjustments (cooler spaces, rest breaks, uniform changes etc.)
🎯Clear communication and support pathways for staff going through menopause

Importantly, this isn’t simply about awareness or training — organisations must document and publish their actual plans.

In Summary

✔️ Menopause is now explicitly part of UK employment law via the Employment Rights Act 2025.
✔️ Employers with 250+ staff will need to publish menopause action plans within broader equality reporting.
✔️ Employers must show what support they provide and what steps they’re taking.
✔️ It builds on existing discrimination and safety duties — but goes further by requiring proactive planning.

𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠.

Back in the gym at Romans Leisure and Spa after a forced rest from flu 🤧 and making sure I’m taking a proper rest between sets and there’s a reason for it.

That rest between sets isn’t a break it’s part of the training. It’s where strength comes back, focus sharpens and the next rep gets better.

Rest between sets allows your muscles and nervous system time to recover, your breathing to settle and your strength to recharge so the next set is just as strong (or stronger) than the last and you maintain good form. It’s not wasted time—it’s where progress is protected.

Rush the rest and you train tired.
Respect the rest and you train with purpose and see progress

A reminder that in the gym—and in life—rest enables you come back stronger. 💥💪

See you in the gym
