Decision fatigue: Why making so many decisions could be harming our health?

Stay in bed or get up and run? Eggs or oats? Cardio or weights? Peanut butter or Vegemite?  Tea or coffee? Potato chips or chocolate (JK – obviously, both!)? Netflix or Stan?

Honestly, as silly as these choices are, we know that making even the teeniest decisions can stress out even the bossest of humans. You may find yourself swirling around in the whirlpool of decision-making shouting at the heavens, “Can someone just decide FOR ME!”  It’s called decision fatigue and as we said, even the best of us can struggle under the weight of making a seemingly endless number of decisions, every day.

However, there is such thing as overdoing it when it comes to physical activity. So, how much exercise is too much? And how do we know when we need to rest?

What the hell is your “Core” and Why you might need to “Restore” it?

There is a lot of talk about the Core these days but we have found that that doesn’t mean that people understand it!  Your core is such an important element of your overall health. It really forms the foundation for your physical health in terms of support, stability, function, form and injury prevention. In short, core stability and function is important to ALL of us, so educate yourself a little and find out what the Core really is?
