HEALTH & WELLBEING

HATE GYMS? LOVE GYMOPHOBICS! If you have never been attracted to using a Gym then you are no different to the 83 percent of the population who feel the same. Yet some 250,000 women have already changed their mind and love being members of Gymophobics. As the leading ladies-only health & figure improvement Centres in the UK, Gymophobics specialise in working with women of all ages who are keen to improve their health & fitness, lose weight and tone and trim their figure. You are never alone at Gymophobics! Expect VIP attention and a personalised prescription. Results come quickly using ‘AIR’ equipment which takes the work out of the workout. Members love our holistic approach which includes diet and a home exercise prescription as well as the 30 minute Gym workouts and Lifestyle counselling! There are no age limits either as members range from Teens to the over 60’s. There are many unique features to the Gymophobics concept. Unlike conventional Gyms which focus on ‘resistance’ exercise, at Gymophobics each prescription is based on something called RESISTED TENSION (RT) which integrates two exercise modalities. This is the first system to have been awarded a Trade Mark and was devised by Gymophobics Founder Donna Hubbard based on her career as a competitive Swimmer back in the 1970’s. RT allows the member to use less resistance when exercising but results in faster inch loss! A double whammy! There is no over crowding or waiting around at Gymophobics as each member visits by appointment and each prescription is monitored and updated every 3 weeks. No wonder then that results come faster than you ever dreamt possible! It is no exaggeration to say that Gymophobics can change your life for the better. Just two or three 30 minute sessions each week is all it takes to restore the figure you deserve and add life to your years and years to your life! You will love the friendly female atmosphere, the supportive community environmentand the staff who care so much about your results!

ith resolutions in place and a renewed commitment to well-being, let’s explore some practical steps to kickstart a healthier lifestyle.

Hit the Gym: One of the classic resolutions involves hitting the gym, and for good reason. Regular exercise not only aids in shedding those post-holiday pounds but also contributes to improved mood, increased energy levels, and overall well-being. Whether you’re a seasoned fitness enthusiast or a beginner, finding a workout routine that suits your preferences and schedule is essential. From cardio sessions to strength training, there’s a myriad of options to choose from. Embrace Healthy Eating: After indulging in festive feasts, it’s time to reset your dietary habits. Focus on incorporating nutrient-dense foods into your meals, such as fresh fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. Opt for local produce when possible, supporting both your health and the community. Planning and preparing meals in advance can help you make mindful food choices, reducing the temptation of reaching for unhealthy snacks.

night, as insufficient rest can negatively impact your energy levels and hinder weight loss efforts. Set Realistic Goals: While it’s tempting to set ambitious resolutions, it’s crucial to establish realistic and achievable goals. Break down your larger health and weight loss objectives into smaller, manageable steps. Celebrate each milestone along the way, fostering a sense of accomplishment and motivation to stay on track.

Get Active in Everyday Life: Exercise doesn’t have to be confined to the gym. Incorporate physical activity into your daily routine by opting for more active modes of transportation. Consider cycling to work, taking the stairs instead of the elevator, or scheduling regular walks. These small changes can make a significant impact on your overall fitness and contribute to weight loss over time. Hydrate and Rest: Don’t underestimate the power of hydration and adequate sleep in your health journey. Drinking enough water supports digestion, boosts metabolism, and helps control appetite.

DECK THE HALLS:

A GUIDE TO PREPARING YOUR HOME FOR CHRISTMAS

As the festive season approaches, it’s time to transform your home and garden into a winter wonderland that radiates the spirit of Christmas.

F

rom the iconic Christmas tree taking centre stage in the living room to the twinkling lights adorning your garden and the welcoming wreath on the front door, let’s delve into the art of creating a warm and inviting holiday atmosphere. THE CHRISTMAS TREE: A Time-Honored Tradition The Christmas tree is undoubtedly the star of the show when it comes to holiday decorations. Begin by selecting a tree that fits your space and personal style. Whether you opt for a traditional evergreen or a modern artificial tree, the key is to make it your own. Start by stringing lights evenly around the tree, ensuring a balanced and festive glow. Choose a color scheme for your ornaments—whether it’s classic red and green, winter whites and blues, or a vibrant mix of colors. Personalise your tree with cherished ornaments, each carrying its own sentimental value. Consider adding a tree topper that complements your theme, such as a sparkling star or an elegant angel. And don’t forget the tree skirt—a decorative touch that completes the look and hides the tree stand. LIGHTS IN THE GARDEN: Guiding the Way to Holiday Magic Extend the festive ambiance beyond the walls of your home

by illuminating your garden with twinkling lights. Outdoor Christmas lights come in various shapes, sizes, and colors, allowing you to get creative with your display. Start by outlining the pathways, trees, and shrubs with strings of lights. Opt for warm white lights for a classic feel or go bold with multi-coloured strands for a playful touch. Consider using net lights for easy draping over bushes and hedges. To add a touch of magic, incorporate lighted figurines or outdoor Christmas decorations. Whether it’s a jolly Santa Claus, a reindeer, or a nativity scene, these additions bring the spirit of Christmas to your outdoor space. THE WELCOMING WREATH: A Festive Greeting at the Front Door Make a lasting impression on your guests by adorning your front door with a beautiful Christmas wreath. Wreaths are versatile and can be crafted from a variety of materials, including fresh greenery, faux foliage, or even a mix of both. Select a wreath that complements your overall decorating theme. Traditionalists may opt for a classic evergreen wreath adorned with red bows and ornaments, while those with a modern aesthetic might prefer a minimalist design with metallic accents.

WINTERISING YOUR GARDEN: FROM PLANTS TO GARAGE DOORS As the vibrant colors of autumn fade away, it’s time to shift our focus to preparing our gardens for the winter chill.

W

interising your garden goes beyond just protecting your plants; it also involves securing other outdoor elements, like your garage door. In this article, we’ll explore comprehensive tips to ensure your garden - and even your garage door - are well-prepared for the upcoming winter months.

Sealing Gaps and Insulating: Check for gaps around the garage door and windows. Cold drafts can not only make your garage uncomfortable but also affect the temperature inside your home. Use weatherstripping to seal gaps and consider adding insulation to the garage door. This not only protects your belongings but also reduces heating costs during winter.

Pruning and Mulching: Start by pruning your plants and removing dead or diseased branches. This not only enhances the overall health of your garden but also prevents potential hazards during heavy snowfall. Once pruning is complete, add a layer of mulch to insulate the soil and protect plant roots from freezing temperatures.

Snow Removal Plan: Have a snow removal plan in place. Whether you use a snow blower or manual shoveling, make sure you can easily access your garage and navigate around your garden without causing damage to plants or structures. Consider storing snow removal equipment in an easily accessible location within the garage.

Protecting Perennials: For perennials, consider covering them with burlap or a frost cloth to shield them from harsh winter winds. This extra layer acts as a barrier against extreme weather conditions, preserving the energy and vitality of your plants for the upcoming spring.

As you prepare your garden for winter, don’t overlook the importance of maintaining your garage door. By taking these comprehensive steps, you’ll not only protect your plants but also ensure that your garage remains a functional and secure space during the colder months. Embrace the winter with a well-prepared garden and a garage door that stands up to the elements.

Cleaning and Storing Garden Tools: Before the snow accumulates, clean and store your garden tools properly. Remove any soil, debris, or moisture to prevent rusting. Apply a thin layer of oil to metal parts for additional protection. This ensures your tools are ready to go when the gardening season returns.

JEWELLERY

SECONDHAND SUSTAINABILITY! The term 'sustainability' refers to the human ability to exist and develop without depleting the earth's natural resources for future generations. Many people therefore choose to shop sustainably - which means they are mindful of the environmental impact of the products being purchased. By opting for pre-loved jewellery, you contribute to the reduction in demand for newly mined metals and gemstones. As a result, this minimises the environmental impact associated with the extraction and production processes involved in mining metals and gemstones by conserving natural resources and lowering carbon emissions. This makes buying pre-loved jewellery the perfect solution when aiming to shop sustainably. Secondhand jewellery causes no new damage to the environment and gives new life and longevity to existing pieces - all whilst helping to preserve earth's natural resources!

Alternatively, customers looking to add some brand new sparkle to their jewellery collection, whilst also shopping sustainably, can look towards Segal’s beautiful laboratory grown diamond collection! Laboratory grown diamonds are another example of a sustainable purchase as the resources needed to grow these diamonds are far less limited than the diamonds that are formed in the earth. Not only do laboratory grown diamonds help to preserve natural resources, but they are far less damaging to the environment and its ecosystems in comparison to the diamond mining process.

Segal’s Jewellers present an extensive and exquisite selection of pre-owned and antique jewellery, offering one of the finest and most expansive collections in the region. From cherished preloved necklaces to captivating diamond engagement rings, they epitomize timeless elegance and unparalleled craftsmanship.

A GUIDE TO PREPARING YOUR VEHICLE FOR HARSH WINTER CONDITIONS As winter descends with its icy grip, it’s crucial to ensure that your vehicle is ready to tackle the challenges that come with the season.

rom navigating snowy roads to combating freezing temperatures, taking the time to prepare your car can make all the difference in ensuring a safe and smooth winter journey. Let’s explore some essential steps to winterize your wheels and face the cold months with confidence. Choose Reputable Garages for Servicing: Before winter sets in, consider scheduling a comprehensive service for your vehicle at a reputable garage. A professional inspection can identify and address any underlying issues that might compromise your car’s performance in winter conditions. From checking fluid levels to examining the overall health of your vehicle, a service ensures that your car is in topnotch condition. Oil Change and Fluid Top-Up: Winter demands more from your car’s engine, making it essential to change and top up crucial fluids. Ensure that your vehicle has the right viscosity of oil to handle colder temperatures. Additionally, check and top up windshield washer fluid to guarantee clear visibility during snowy drives. Invest in Snow-Ready Tyres: Navigating icy and snow-covered roads requires proper traction, and investing in snow-ready tyres is a gamechanger. Check your current tyres for sufficient tread depth and consider replacing them if needed. Tyres

with deep treads are designed to provide better grip, enhancing your safety on winter roads. Check or Change Your Battery: Cold weather can be tough on car batteries, leading to potential issues in starting your vehicle. Have your battery tested to ensure it’s in good condition, and consider replacing it if it’s older or showing signs of weakness. A reliable battery is essential for a hassle-free winter driving experience. Replace Wiper Blades for Clear Vision: Snow, sleet, and freezing rain can severely impact visibility, making functional wiper blades a must. Inspect your wiper blades for any signs of wear and tear, and replace them if necessary. Investing in quality, winterspecific wiper blades ensures effective windshield clearing during inclement weather. Winterising your vehicle is a proactive approach to safeguarding both your car and your safety during the colder months. Regular servicing at reputable garages, changing and topping up fluids, investing in snow-ready tyres, checking or changing your battery, and replacing wiper blades are crucial steps in preparing your vehicle for winter conditions. By taking these measures, you can confidently navigate winter roads, knowing that your car is equipped to handle whatever challenges the season brings. Stay safe and enjoy the winter wonderland with peace of mind on the road.
