Everyone associates being healthy with that cover model look, blistering 6packs, lean legs, not a single digit of body fat to be found! They also associate being healthy with boring simple foods, usually chicken and rice! Broccoli and kale, green tea and superfoods!

But… is this really healthy?

To me being healthy doesn’t mean all off the above! To be honest parts of the above are totally not healthy! 6 packs for some can be so hard to achieve it creates bad habits, food disorders, body dysmorphia and general unhappiness!

Girls fantasising over the latest celeb pictures on the front of hello magazine and start their revolutionary squat program for guaranteed lean legs! Only to find it’s a load of rubbish and really it only took the photographer 5 minutes to Photoshop her saggy thighs and cellulite out of the photo!

The world IS a filter! Take everything with a pinch of salt…

Healthy is being able to maintain a healthy weight, being happy with your own figure, wearing new clothes, feeling confident with your top off or in a bikini, being able to go for dinner without freaking out and when missing a gym session isn’t the end of the world!

Find a healthy balance…..and YES …. You can find balance!
