Just quickly, before we begin - I have 3 spots that have opened up for online coaching, and I thought I would offer them to podcast listeners first, as - let’s face it - you guys are awesome. If you’re maybe a bit confused as to how to implement some of the training or nutrition principles we’ve discussed on here, or maybe you’re a bit overwhelmed by all the information out there and you’re struggling to find a way of training that you’re truly happy with, I’m here to help. My coaching is pretty simple - together, we devise training programmes and nutrition guidelines that fit with your lifestyle, and our weekly check-ins are specifically designed to help reassure you that you’re doing the right thing. If this is you, get in touch. Drop me an email at [email protected], and say you’ve come from the podcast. I may even offer you a podcast-exclusive discount.

In our final episode of January, we take a look at thriving. Many of you will have started 2018 with the aim of making this year more amazing than ever - so in this episode, we talk to my good friend Nicola Hobbs about just that. 

We cover: 

• Thriving – what is it, why is it important, why it is important in training/business/relationships/life, THRIVE model (from the book)
• Positive Psychology - why working in is as important as working out, why mental health is still a taboo
• Yoga – what is it, benefits, how it can help in gym/work/life, how it changed my life, flow state/samadhi 
• Meditation and mindfulness – what is it, why it’s important (especially with anxiety and distraction caused by social media), how to do it, explore why more people don’t do it 
• Spirituality and science – blending an eastern and western approach, what is spirit, why is spiritual health just as important as mental and physical health
• Key topics from the book Thrive Through Yoga – anxiety, body image, perfectionism, letting go (and any other chapters you think are relevant)
• Simple things to do to make your experience of life more amazing
