#happymonday Here is a story from one of my clients who wanted to share her story in hopes of helping other women. . I was never one to discuss my personal body issues with just anyone, a good friend of mine who is a urogynecologist came to Jamaica on a visit and asked me to attend a talk she was giving. So, to show my support, I attended the session and I am so glad I did. It made me realize that the... accidental leaks I had when I sneezed or jumped in Zumba class was something that didn’t happen to all women and it was an issue that could be fixed. It was not a huge issue for me as it happened infrequently, so I just stored the knowledge. Fast forward a few months, life got hectic couldn’t make it to the gym so I took up skipping at home to keep fit, after skipping for 5 minutes I would leak this became an issue! Then I saw a post that @glammafitt posted about correcting the issue by just doing Kegels and pelvic floor exercises. I decided to give it a try. After 8 weeks I no longer leaked when skipping and I can even run my 10k without worrying. . Fast forward 2 years, after doing the pelvic floor program it was one of the best decisions I ever made. The exercises were so simple to do yet they have made a big difference in my life. I never thought I would be able to skip again and jump on a trampoline with out worrying if I would leak. . Thank you again @glammafitt for helping to change my daily living in a positive way. More women need to know about this, we don’t have to suffer silently.#itsthelittlethings .

Have you been doing a ton of crunches & ab exercises, but feel like your belly fat is not going away?. . What you eat and how you eat it will determine what your midsection looks like. . Truth bomb .... No amount of crunches ( which I don’t do anyways), ab exercises or cardio will give you a nice flat defined mid section like nutrition will, does not mean you eat only salad! . But before you go super strick with eating, I suggest removing the foods that could cause inflammation and the digestive disrupting foods first. . You’d be surprised at the difference you can see just by decreasing inflammation in your gut. . Top 5 things to remove - Wheat - Alcohol - Refined sugar - Dairy - Trans fat ( fried foods, chips. . Try Removing these for 30 days, and I promise you will feel a difference in your tummy. . Need help putting a plan together, someone to support you with your goals?

Hey, check your posture right now, How do you look?. . Slouching is very common with most of us. Most people when sitting their butts go forward then we start rounding our spine then the shoulders start rounding also putting us in that cursed slouch position. .... If you notice that you sit like that then guess what, you are not breathing as effectively as you should and having bad posture will prevent you from breathing deeply into your lungs. . When you are breathing correctly it requires you to pay attention to your posture so you can breath deeper into your lungs, not just using the top portion of your lungs. This is called Diaphragmatic breathing . Here are 5 amazing benefits of Diaphragmatic breathing. 1. Reduces fatigue 2. Increasing metabolism and removing toxins 3. Less stress helps with calmness and alertness 4. Strengthen your pelvic floor 5. Slows heart rate and can help lower blood pressure. . Try this, place your fingers on your wrist to feel your pulse after a few minutes take 2 or 3 deep breaths, ( inhale through your nose exhale through your mouth) what do you notice...slowing down of your pulse. your heart receives the increased oxygen so it pumps slower...this is great especially now with all the stress and uncertainty going on this helps to take 5 minutes to reset. .
