Sitting - the new smoking!!!

 ‘sitting is the new smoking’! It’s not an original title in fact I didnt even make it up! The sad truth it’s the name of an emerging science into the effects our sedentary life styles are having not only on our bodies but our health as well. ‘sitting’ is detrimental to our health and your life. It was actually first coined by Dr James Levine [Mayo Clinic USA] when he wrote his book called ‘get up! Why your chair is killing you and what to do about it’!! This was his study on sitting and its negative impact on our health To date it is estimated the we are on average ‘sitting’ for approx 9.3 hours per day, that a hell of a number when you consider that the same science averages our sleep out at only 7.7 hours in the same day ! So we sit more than we sleep! ·          For most of us ‘sitting’ at work is inevitable – but couple that with all the other ‘sitting’ we do – ·      ...

Positive SELF Talk

Are you lacking in Motivation ? Then sit and talk to yourself !!! – Yes you did read me correctly, Talk to yourself .  Dr Eric Cobb [Z Health] tells us that the human brain believes what WE say to ourselves more than anyone else can say to us, especially as we get to rep it out! We get to tell ourselves over and over again. We all have a great opportunity today to make a profound change in your lives – all we have to do is ensure that we are having the right conversations and asking ourselves the right questions  Regardless of anyone else YOUR voice is the one that counts,  Think POSITIVE – Talk POSITIVE and talk to yourself  Want to check out more on Dr Eric Cobb click here
