✨EPISODE 9 - THE EXPLORE MORE MUM WITH ASHLEY GLEN✨

This week I'm joined by Ashley Glen @theexploremoremum. ⛰️
Ashley is a mum and personal trainer with a great sense of adventure and love for the great outdoors.
🌈
In this episode we discuss:
🌟
How exercise started off as a means of escapism for Ashley and grew into a passion and career.
🌦️
We talk about using the elements and nature as your gym, and the numerous benefits that come with this. Physical but also mental and emotional. GP's are now prescribing nature as a form of medicine!
🏞️
Ashley talks about turning challenges into oppertunites, and explained how being a single mum motivated her to find creative ways to train and explore while spending time with her Son.
🤸‍♀️
We talk about the importance of community and how connection is a vital part of health alongside fitness.
🧗‍♀️
Ashley shares some words of encouragement and wisdom with how to get the ball rolling, get moving and gain confidence.
🏃‍♀️
Ashley also shares some awesome advice around the practicalities of exercising including how to prioritise it and incorporate it into both your own and your families lives, getting creative with how and where you work out and what kit is useful and where to buy it.
🌄
This was a really motivating and informative chat, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

I have a cold! 🤧

At this time of year its common to catch colds, coughs and a sore throat. It's actually a positive sign that our immune system is working and has our back! However, we shouldn't be suffering with a constant runny nose and pesky cough that won't go away.
~
A sign our immune system is not working optimally usually shows up as recurrent colds and infections. But poor immune function can also manifest as the following symptoms; frequent skin outbreaks - rashes, hives, cold sores, allergies, weight loss or weight gain, hair loss or dull hair, weak nails, slow healing wounds, digestive problems, anaemia, joint pain, headaches and migraines, fatigue and mouth ulcers.
~
So what can we do to look after our immune system all year round?
~
My fave remedies include;
~
🥦A rainbow of fruit and veg (more veg than fruit) just think colour, plant based and nutrient rich!
🍫Zinc rich foods - legumes, red meat, shelfish, nuts, seeds, eggs, whole grains and....... Dark chocolate!
🥕Beta caroteen - all the orange (plus some green), sweet potato, carrots, squash, green leafy veg, cantaloupe melon, apricot, red and yellow peppers.
~
My fave supplements:
~
🍄For children - Dr Leo and Dr Rei medicinal mushroom formulas rich in beta-glucans which help modulate the immune system and help it work more optimally
~
🍈Elderberry syrup - helps fight of and prevent influenza
~
🌞Biocare biomelts - probiotic and vitamin D - supports the gut flora and in turn immune system as 80% of immune system resides in the gut.
~
For Audults:
~
🍄Hifas da Terra mico five and mico Rei - medicinal mushroom formulas that help build our immune host resilience (defence mechanism) and help reduce inflammation and act as an antioxidant. Reishi mushroom is known as the mushroom of eternal youth in traditional Chinese medicine! Give me lots!
~
❤️ Probiotics - I use various brands but at the moment I'm taking bioacidophilus forte which I love.
~
🌞 Vitamin D - this vitamin acts more like a hormone and underpins the immune system. I love biomulsion D.
~
🍓You can't beat a good multi vitamin to bolster your nutrtion especially at this time of year. I love biocares methyl-multinutrient 💕

✨EPISODE 8 OF THE 'BE YOU MUM' PODCAST WITH ANNA MARSH.

This week I discuss the topic of 'identity' with the awesome @anna_marsh_nutrition
✨
Anna is a Functional Medicine Practitioner and Women's Health Coach. She has a huge list of qualifications and experience that enables her to help women take back their power, and create a healthy body, happy heart and a healthy mind! 💕
✨
In this episode we discuss:
✨
Anna's personal health journey (to date), and her approach to overcoming her own health challenges or more accurately, her approach to these opportunities to grow. This includes; hormonal imbalances, fatigue, digestive issues and personal healing.
✨
We talk about identity - this takes a huge shift during motherhood, full stop. Whether you're a new mum or have a little tribe, it's common to lose a sense of who we are when we become a mum. However, this is also a great opportunity to reconnect with and create 'a you' who YOU love!
✨
Our identity has so many layers to it and is hugely impacted by our surroundings, environment, external expectations and who we feel we 'should' be as well as who we were before becoming a mum.
✨
Anna brings her neuro-strategy skills, yogic philosophy, her wealth of coaching experience and human touch to explain identity from the perspective of our human needs and the personalities of the unconscious mind. It's so interesting and makes soooo much sense!
✨
"To achieve something new we must be come someone new"
✨
Anna is awesome at taking the science and translating it into language we can really resonate with. This language is what helps shift our perspective. She also shares some helpful tips we can go on to implement into our own lives.
✨
If you are feeling a little lost, overwhelmed, lack clarity, struggle with self sabotage, yo-yo dieting, yo-yo exercising, unhelpful behaviours and or limiting beliefs but know you can feel so much happier and healthier - this is for you! ✨
Please let me know if you enjoyed this episode. I loved our chat big time!

HELLOOOO!

Hi everyone! I've had a few new followers of late so wanted to introduce myself and more about my work - 'BeYouMum'.
✨
I'm Annie, I'm a Registered Nutritional Therapist. I'm very proud to have this qualification although to be honest, it's not a true reflection of the work I do.
✨
Since having my little Bonnie Boo 3 years ago, I now place my focus on supporting Mum's.
✨
My initial motivation was my own poor health, and the struggles I came up against during the transition that is motherhood.
✨
Fast forward 3 years and a MASSIVE journey of personal growth, healing and self discovery later.......
✨
I now help other mum's cultivate more health and happiness in thier lives, so they can create the freedom to grow into their most alive and nourished version. This is what BeYouMum is all about!
✨
Motherhood for me presented oppertunities to grow! It exposed the parts of me that needed a little extra understanding, love and nourishment and enabled me to acknowledge the needs of my whole self - mind, body, heart and spirit.
✨
Food is massively important, it is medicine and information for the mind and body however there is more to it than just food.
✨
Understanding yourself is the first step before change. I use a functional medicine approach to help you understand what's going on beneath the surface. Working at the cause opposed to the effect.
✨
Mindset - having a stratergy is great but it's the lens which we view that statergy through that determines how successful it is! I have 15 years experience of coaching people from a variety of different backgrounds, life experiences and situations and this really is where the magic happens. I believe in change, I believe in you!
✨
Fun - feeling good is fun! Growth is fun - when you understand it. From my experience I see alot mum's (including myself) consumed by the effect, the diagnosis - anxiety, overwhelm, depression, autoimmunity, exhaustion the list goes on. When you start to look at your story, who you were before becoming a parent and looking within opposed to what's on the surface the peices of the puzzle starts to come together. This is empowering, interesting and FUN!
