Stay healthy for whatever life throws at you!

As one of life’s adventurers, my approach to health has always been; the better I feel, the more I can do!

And if the last year has taught us anything, it’s that life can be unexpected – very unexpected!

During the lockdown, many of us battled with our health to some degree; some of us physically, some of us mentally, and some of us emotionally, so as we ease back towards normality, we all seem to have developed a new appreciation for what it means to be healthy.

In my last blog, I spoke about how I believe health is more about how I feel than how I look – and that remains true. And to the same point, maintaining my health is about keeping myself feeling great for whatever comes my way.

A few years ago, I had my first hip operation – the recovery was quicker than most because I diligently followed the exercises that the hospital recommended. I did it to the letter, never failed so I was back to normal activities in fewer weeks than the hospital expected. I was told to continue daily activities like walking, a dream for me because I love walking, especially around here where I live. They also suggested cycling or swimming or both. Now I have an issue with swimming – I hate the getting changed, getting wet, getting dry and getting changed again! What a bore! I chose cycling because I enjoy it and I have friends who enjoy it too. A lovely therapeutic and social time, even though I was challenged with the steep incline going home. One of the drawbacks from living on a high point in Hampshire. I bought a bike with 18 gears! That was challenging, even though I’m good with numbers, I never knew which one I’d chosen! It was always a topic of conversation when I told people I had bought a Land Rover! Yes, the bike had the very recognisable Land Rover logo stamped on the frame.

 I’ve been using a vast range of Forever Living products for quite some time now and would happily attribute my good health and general wellbeing as a direct result. Along with following the hospital’s exercise regime some of these fabulous products also aided my speedy recovery and now I’m looking to beat my recovery record with my second hip operation, when it happens! I’m part of the shocking NHS statistic of over 5 million routine procedures still pending!

Maintaining good health pre-op gives you a head start on your recovery post-op, so as my second hip operation looms somewhere in the future, I’m ramping up my health practices so I can feel my best heading into the operation, fast-track my recovery and get out exploring again ASAP.

To help me on my way, I’ll be using a range of Forever Living products that I use daily and truly love so, I thought I’d show you my top 5 so you can join in and feel your best for whatever life brings your way. Please bear in mind, I’m sharing the ones that are specific to my current health which is poor mobility. There are so many you would be overwhelmed. More about those another time.

Forever Aloe Vera Gel

As one of nature’s natural healers, Aloe Vera is a foundational ingredient for Forever Living – and with good reason! The Forever Aloe Vera Gel provides numerous health benefits like aiding digestion and supporting gastro-intestinal health. It is made of 99.7% pure inner leaf gel and now contains vitamin C which contributes to the normal function of the immune system and to a normal energy-yielding metabolism. So, if you’re looking for an easy way to boost your health – this daily drink is one of my favourites!

Forever Freedom

This drinking gel combines all the benefits of the pure Aloe Vera drinking gel with added glucosamine, chondroitin and MSM (methyl sulfonyl methane), those lovely elements that assist in keeping your joints flexible, hence it’s popular with those leading an active lifestyle.

Forever Arctic Sea

This is a perfectly balanced blend of omega-3 fatty acids. It supports heart and brain function. The human body cannot naturally make the omega-3 fatty acids which are commonly found in fish. Forever’s Arctic Sea is a blend of natural fish, calamari and oleic olive oil giving the perfect balance of these essential fatty acids. It’s a pure source of EPA for normal function and DHA which contributes to the maintenance of normal brain function.

Where would I be without my daily Arctic Sea? I hate to think!

Forever Move

As the description says “Keep moving towards your next adventure with Forever Move”!

It combines two powerful and patented ingredients: natural eggshell membrane (NEM) and curcumin turmeric (Biocurc), a prized Asian root popular with people who lead active lives. These are perfect for people who lead busy and active lifestyles, sport and fitness enthusiasts, maturing adults (that’s me!) and those who work at strenuous jobs.

Forever Lite Ultra

This plant-powered protein powder comes in two flavours, Vanilla or Chocolate and is the perfect thing to add to your morning smoothies to boost your muscle repair and protein intake. It contains 24g of protein per serving when mixed with 300mls of skimmed milk and is chock-full of vitamins and minerals to support your body through exercise. I love adding a scoop of vanilla to my morning porridge – absolutely delicious! We call this a kitchen cupboard product because of its versatility. You can make smoothies of your choice and it makes really healthy pancakes or banana bread too. A great way to take on board your nutritional requirements as an alternative to a meal when you are pressed for time.

Fancy giving your body a boost and staying healthy for whatever life throws your way? Shop Forever Living products here or get in touch to learn more and find the perfect ones to suit you!

So, what’s next?

As I give my body everything it needs to stay fighting fit, there’s one other thing I’ll be acquiring to keep me exploring – an e-Bike! I’ve had my eye on one these since I gave up my previous two-wheeler, the Land Rover, as the hills where I live are too challenging for me now. I’ve visited the newly opened Cycle Sphere at the hub of Bordon town centre – The Shed, to see what they had to offer. What charming people and so many to choose from. I think I’ve made my choice. I can highly recommend you pay them a visit, they have so much to offer for all abilities and requirements.

I’m looking forward to getting back to my adventures and whizzing up hills with ease – stay tuned to hear where my new bike takes me!

Press Reset & Feel Your Best This Summer

We’ve finally escaped the downpours of May and are at long last heading into the warmer months of summer, and all the joys that the sunny season brings; long hot days, balmy evenings, and maybe even a trip to the English seaside!

But for some, the threat of ‘bikini season’ this year is looming. Over the past year many of us have fallen out of healthy habits and into home comforts, but now that the world is gradually returning to normal, many of us are feeling in need of a little health refresh.

For me, health is much more about how we feel than how we look. I personally feel my healthiest when I’m happy, mobile and eating foods that agree with me and bring me joy. But it’s not always as easy as that, is it?

The first step is always the hardest! Creating a plan of action, changing your diet, being committed to exercise – it’s no easy feat! Mindset plays a huge part in helping you create and maintain healthy habits, and self-motivation can easily dwindle without support – I know, I’ve been there. But Forever Living have developed a program that takes all the hard work out of it…

C9 is a 9-day plan that helps you reform your healthy habits and kickstart your journey to a healthier and happier you this summer. This balanced program allows your body and mind to press the reset button and provides you with new ways to feel great again.

They say it takes 30 days to create a new habit that you stick with, this is just the first 9 days. In this short period, you can feel so good and proud of your efforts, it makes the next 21 more achievable.

The full Forever programme is split into three stages that are designed to help cleanse the body and start afresh with a renewed sense of energy and motivation. C9 is the first stage, providing you with a range of products to help you stick to the whole program if you so wish. You may discover that the C9 is all you need to get these healthy habits in place. The programme is called F.I.T. which stands for Foundation – Inspiration – Transformation and the aim is to get you where you want to be on your “Look Good – Feel Good” journey. As you might expect, it includes Forever Living’s hero product; The Aloe Vera Gel. Rich in nutrients, the powerful gel supports gastro-intestinal health, immune function and is a natural cleanser, making it the perfect central product in the programme.

Life and convenience food can often get in the way of us making sustainable changes to our diet, which is why staying accountable for just 9 days can really kick you off to such a brilliant start!

The C9 Booklet is an essential part of the programme, not only does it help you stay accountable with your nutritional consumption, but it is also chock-full of fun exercise ideas and great recipe ideas as well to help you transform your approach to fitness. We don’t all have time to create our own fitness plans, sometimes we just want people to tell us what to do and when to do it – which is exactly what C9 does!

I’ve had customers who have had truly incredible results from trying C9 – here’s what they’ve told me:

“I have used Forever Living’s C9 programme a couple of times now and have always felt refreshed and energised at the end of the 9 days. It is a great way to prepare your body and mind towards having better eating habits, and I can honestly say I never felt hungry. The Aloe drinking gel has always been part of my daily health routine and coupled with the specially chosen supplements, allows you to continue your working day without the fear of loosing your energy. The shakes are amazing, especially with added fresh fruit blended in turning it into a delicious smoothie. It also helps if you have had either training or are supported by a Forever Living Business Owner, to really understand and get the best out of this health programme. This is an informative and well put together programme, making it easy for anyone to try and I highly recommend it.” – Nina

“C9 is a way of moving towards a healthier lifestyle. It’s 9 days to change your habits and these are great products to aid the process. I felt lighter and full of energy at the end of the 9 days.” – Isabell

“Hi Sheila, I am so pleased with my C9 results and I am only on Day 5! My energy levels are great and my appetite is under control. Feeling Fab! Can I order the supplements to continue with?” – Cathy

Fancy giving C9 a go and feeling like the best version of you this summer? Get in touch! If you have any questions or concerns about C9, I’d be more than happy to have a chat.
