Who I am!
I am a flower lover who has to keep busy to stay sane.
The irony is years of frantic living and a full diary has tired my out and built up a lethargy in me. Also, I am an event florist who brings events to life with my love for flowers.
How I Stay Healthy - Kettlebells, Yoga and Flowers!
Kettlebells
I have always loved weight training but through lockdown had to stop. So I have fallen back in love with kettlebells. They are a bit of a cheat because you throw them around (carefully) and before you know it you have spent so long focusing on technique that I don’t even realise I have been shifting 16kg for 40 minutes. I love how it challenges my concentration. It’s almost meditative for me. I can’t think of anything else but the moves.

Yoga
After all that heavy lifting I need balance. Yoga makes me feel grounded and connected to my physical body. I danced from a very young age and have always kept my flexibility, but what I love about yoga is how mindful each flex and stretch is. It allows me to iron out the kinks of the the day and slow down.

Flowers
For me the most powerful therapy of all is nature, specifically flowers. When I feel sad or need to expel energy I can spend hours arranging flowers into sculptures and bouquets. The power of the colour and scent. They give me nothing but pure joy. As a florist they are my most powerful mood enhancer. Not just for me, but being to make someone smile, make them happy without words...flowers do that every time. I used to think that yoga and flowers were a luxury, for me they are my energisers, they allow be to lead a healthy fulfilled life.
