8 Perth Based Activewear Brands You Need to Know About Your Guide to Natural ... Has your baby been out of sorts lately? Have the ... Chasing Rainbows - Spreading ... Join us in chasing rainbows and to choose JOY. #chasingrainbows2020 ... 5 Products to Keep Your ... Well, things are escalating fast as the world is dealing ... - SEE ALL - Did you know that Perth is booming when it comes to our local activewear industry? When I set out to find Perth based brands, I was expecting to find a handful. Instead, I found over 20, and there is probably more. And if that isn’t exciting, I don’t know what is! If you’ve ever been wanting to support more local businesses while rocking some amazing gear, the time to make that switch is now. You will be able to find quality leggings and crop tops at any given price point that rival big brand names, and come from owners who know what the Perth based fitness market is really like. I’ve rounded up 7 that each offer something unique to give you a solid jumping off point when it comes to amazing Perth local brands. JPorter Hands down, the most recommended Perth based activewear brand. And after spending some time chatting with Joshua Porter (co-owner of JPorter), it is easy to see why! Luxury fabrics, gorgeous colours, plus basics that look good in and out of the gym, the pieces look and feel better in person! But the real reason they are so highly recommend? Customer service! If you are local, you can opt to pick up your order and try it on in store! They listen and make changes based on feedback from their Wolfpack (whom have their own Instagram account to be featured on), and a lookbook for each collection that is definitely worth a look. It’s the lifestyle brand for active people. Plus if you love quotes, there are a few extra surprises in each piece - gotta catch ’em all! Bold Activewear The newbie on the Perth Activewear scene, Bold Activewear aims to provide quality activewear at affordable prices. Their first collection features cute and functional crop tops, leggings and shorts in a fun flamingo print. One of the best parts of the collection? The waistband design is exactly the same for their full length leggings and ¾ crops! So no matter what length you need for the changing seasons, you know exactly the fit and feel you’re going to get! With an essential range in the works, and a second collection featuring prints designed by local artists in the future, Bold Activewear is a brand to keep your eye on. Fearless Active Wear Out of all the Perth based brands, this is one I can definitely highly recommend! I own their Navy set and it is amazing! Super comfortable for both cardio and resistance training, squat and sweat proof leggings, and a perfect medium support crop top. Added bonus: it photographs extremely well -hello Instagram photos! Great brand for those who want functional pieces that also look amazing in and out of the gym. The Art of It For the sweetest in local yogi threads you can’t go past The Art of It. Drawing inspirations from WA’s gorgeous coastline, ancient lands & Australian landscapes. Our top picks are the Mudra Mary tank & Nude Camo leggings! Maasai Activewear Based out out of South Fremantle, Maasai Activewear’s mission is “to empower women whilst helping them feel strong and beautiful during their workout.” They have a wide variety of fun solid colours for all their sports bras, leggings, and shorts, while keeping their hoodies and tees in basic blacks and white. Mid-range in pricing ($75 for a pair of leggings, $40 for a sports bra), Maasai is a great option for covering your gym basics. Our top picks are the Floral Bra & Tights. WOD UP For those looking to “do good” while looking good, check out WOD UP. Not only does a dollar from every transaction go towards support the Tangaroa Blue Foundation to help clean up our oceans, but by using fabrics such as Modal (a biodegradable fibre made from Beechwood) and R-PET (Recycled polyester) they hope to create pieces that are both eco-friendly AND functional. They also offer a great selection of lifting accessories on their website, so it is the perfect one stop shop to stock up before hitting the gym. Stax Let’s be honest. Sometimes you just want the same crop top in 4 different colours. Stax offers one of the best Perth based online selections for colour palette when it comes to basic crop tops, hoodies and leggings. Coupled with their subtle logo on most items, you could go from running errands, to yoga, and then brunch without skipping a beat. And they have recently added a pastel range, just in case you want even more pretty options! Once Upon a Run Power couple Mitch & Shae Brown came up with the idea for their luxe activewear products after training day in, day out in their respective sporting disciplines (football & netball). These ultra fashionable pieces will take you from gym to brunch to the school drop off. Our picks? The Utility Player Tank & XXXI - 2 in 1 Short.

Join us in chasing rainbows and to choose JOY. #chasingrainbows2020 ... 5 Products to Keep Your ... Well, things are escalating fast as the world is dealing ... - SEE ALL - You’ve locked in your fitness, eat a balanced diet, and take time every week for self-care. Things are going great and you are smashing all your health goals. Then date night happens! You know there has got to be more then “dinner and a movie” each and every week. But what are the options that are both fun and health conscious? Lucky for you, Perth has quite a few amazing choices! And many of them won’t break the date night budget. Not only will you be able to keep living your best life while spending time with the one you love, you might just create lifelong wellbeing habits! Here are 7 healthy date ideas in and around Perth: Bike Around Rottnest Island Who needs Love Island when we’ve got Rottnest? This is the easiest way to treat your date to an island getaway! Take one of the first ferries of the day, grab a couple bikes, and spend the rest of the day exploring all that Rotto has to offer! Add in a picnic lunch on the beach and who could ask for a more Instagram worthy date? Try Your Hand at a Cooking Class Whether you are a trained chef or can’t fry an organic, free-range egg to save your life, taking a couples cooking class is a great way to learn how to create something together - as well as whether you want this person cooking for you for the rest of your life. Not only does whipping up a few dishes together give you a chance to work on your communication skills, it’s also a great way to expand your weekly menu at home. (Plus there is a greater chance of your dish turning out how it should under the eye of a trained chef!) Matters of Taste in Mount Pleasant, The Raw Kitchen in Fremantle and Salt & Company in West Perth are great places to start when looking for which cooking class to book. Jump around at Bounce Inc in Cannington For those with a bit of style wanting to impress their date, why not check out Bounce Inc? Whether you are a seasoned trampolinist or just learning what a bum drop is, there is something for every ability level between the free bounce area, the wall, big bag, or basketball nets. It’s an adrenaline junkies dream, without having to jump out of a plane! Go for a Free Guided Walk at King’s Park Looking for a budget friendly option for a date? Then why not explore King’s Park in a whole new way. Departing daily at 10am, 12pm, and 2pm throughout the year, these free walks explore the unique flora that make this Perth landmark home. Most walks are suitable for all fitness levels too. Try your hand at Indoor Rock Climbing How much do you really trust your partner? Find out by learning how to rock climb together. Places such as Rockface in Northbridge and City Summit in Malaga, offer climbing packages which include all your equipment rental and safety introduction, making it an “easy to plan” date night. You’ll be saying “climb on” in no time. Make a Social Sports Team The more the merrier! Grab other couples that you know and register your team in one of the many social sports at either UWA or Curtin University. There are over 8 different sports available, from volleyball to Ultimate Frisbee. A great option for social couples who enjoy having a regular weekly date night. Explore A Farmer’s Market Go straight to the source when planning your next dinner together! Shopping at a Farmer’s Market can help you learn what fruit and veg are in season, support local farmers, and make food shopping fun again. Bonus: make dinner together afterwards with your new skills from the cooking lesson date & using all your wonderful, local finds of the day. Check out our list of Perth’s best farmers markets for more inspo! Give Boxing a Go Not only is boxing a great workout, it is also a great way to build strength and learn to be more in sync with your partner. Or else someone could end up with a glove to the head! Check out either Core Fitness Personal Training in North Fremantle, Bolt Health and Fitness in Victoria Park or Anarchy Training Centre to learn the basics. Four Legged Friendly Beach Walks Just because its date time doesn’t mean you have to leave your dog at home. With some of the best dog beaches in all of WA, why not go for a stroll that makes everyone happy? Mosman Beach-North Leighton Beach is a personal favourite of mine, though Peasholm Dog Beach in North Floreat is also a great option. Swing Dancing Anyone? Always wanted to learn to dance and burn up the dance floor? But your partner needs a bit of extra convincing? Then check out Perth Swing Dance Academy! With multiple locations around the city, drop in style classes, along with being beginner friendly (no experience necessary!), this is your perfect chance to learn. Or at least see if you really truly have two left feet. Blog post lovingly provided by Sarah-Beth. For even more goodness like this, make sure you sign up to our e-newsletter!

Join us in chasing rainbows and to choose JOY. #chasingrainbows2020 ... 5 Products to Keep Your ... Well, things are escalating fast as the world is dealing ... - SEE ALL - Cue the blue-dah-bah-di song, because blue food has made its way to Perth. First there was green matcha latte’s, then yellow turmeric, then pink beetroot, and now blue Mermaid latte’s exist, or Blue Majik latte’s as they’re also known as. Blue Majik, is the nickname for a naturally blue variety of spirulina powder. Much pricier than green spirulina, Blue Majik costs $60 for a mere 50 grams on Amazon, so what’s all the fuss about? According to Maggie Moon, author of The MIND diet, “naturally blue foods have a health halo, think of blueberries or purple potatoes.” So does blue spirulina live up to the halo effect? Well, it’s packed with B vitamins, minerals and a high dose of protein, plus it gets its beautiful light-blue hue from the C-phycocyanin; an anti-inflammatory, antioxidant form of protein. But it’s not all mermaids and unicorns. Blue-green algae is technically a form of bacteria, so it won’t go down a treat for those with sensitive stomach’s says Shape.com “if your body isn’t loving the trend as much as the internet is, it’s definitely okay to skip this one” and move onto Matcha instead. If you’re game to try it for yourself, here’s a couple of places you’ll find it in Perth: Pearth Organic Kitchen West Leederville Prescribing to no particular diet, yet catering to everyone Pearth Organic Kitchen do a bright blue breakfast bowl topped with granola on their brekky menu. Pengos Café Shoalwater Serving up blue mermaid chai latte’s, Pengo’s Café make theirs with using Nutra Organics Mermaid Latte powder- an infusion of sea minerals, blue superfoods and adaptogenic herbs. Mixing that with Ayurvedic chair spices, creamy coconut milk and manuka honey - and you’ve got an epic alternative to a morning coffee. George Street Quarters East Fremantle George Street Quarters down in Freo has also jumped on the bandwagon with their Ocean Bowl. This beautiful smoothie bowl is full of superfood goodness; based with banana, coconut milk and blueberries with the addition of blue spirulina to give it that iconic bright blue colour. Topped with granola and more coconut, it is sure to super-boost your morning! Image: George Street Quarters @alexandrareagan

Join us in chasing rainbows and to choose JOY. #chasingrainbows2020 ... 5 Products to Keep Your ... Well, things are escalating fast as the world is dealing ... - SEE ALL - Has your baby been out of sorts lately? Have the coos and smiles been replaced by crying? Chances are they may have started teething. The first few waves of teething can be especially challenging for babies, happening between the age of 3 to 7 months. Some do start earlier or later as it depends on genetics so don’t stress if they come on a bit earlier or later; the key thing to know is how to help your bub get through the teething process. That’s where natural teething toys come into play. What do natural teething toys do? Baby teething toys are a toy that your bub can safely chew on to soothe their sore gums. Having something to bite and chew on helps the baby’s teeth break through the gum and provides some comfort for the baby as the pressure helps alleviate the pain. The teeth cutting in process and tender gums are often soothed by a light pressure that biting on a teething toy can bring. As soon as you start to notice your baby drooling more, mouthing their fingers or trying to chew on anything they can get their hands on, then chances are they have started teething. It’s probably about time that you started to look for a baby teething toy to provide some comfort at this point, or ideally have them ready in advance. What are the Best Natural Teething Toys for Babies? With so many baby teethers out in the marketplace it’s hard to know which one is the best. It might be a good idea to experiment with a couple of different ones until you find the one that suits your baby. Some babies prefer softer materials, and some prefer more ridged shapes. It is therefore important to find teething toys that offer the right amount of pressure to ease discomfort. It is also very important to ensure that the baby teething toy is safe for use. Look for one that your baby will be able to hold and safely put in their mouth. A teething toy that is too big or too small could be a safety hazard, so make sure there are no small parts that can come loose as this will be a choking hazard. What are the Benefits of Natural Baby Teethers? They contain no toxic chemicals. One of the primary benefits of opting for wooden teething rings over plastic or other popular baby teethers is the fact that wooden teethers are non-toxic and free from harmful leads, metals, BPA, chemicals or phthalates. You want your children to be as safe as possible by providing them with the safes and best products. The safety factor of these amazing wooden teething toys is a major reason why natural teething toys are rising in popularity. Durable, so you won’t need to constant replace them a lot. Wood is far more durable that plastics – which many baby teething toys are made from. This means that your wooden teething ring will far outlast any plastic or cheap teether you could purchase for your little one. The durability of these wooden teething rings makes them last longer, which in turn creates less waste from otherwise disposable products. The durability factor of these wooden teething rings brings us to our next benefit – sustainability. Good for baby, good for the planet. Most wooden teething rings for babies are made with beech wood. Beech wood is uniquely sustainable in that it can be grown in renewable and managed forests. This means that more wood can be grown to replace the trees that have been used and cut down! Naturally antibacterial Did you know this one? Wood actually has natural antimicrobial properties and is therefore naturally antibacterial. How cool is that?! As parents, we are constantly worried about germs around our babies so this aspect of wooden teething rings is a huge plus! Not only is it one less thing to worry about, baby teethers are constantly in babies’ mouths so this factor is especially important for a product like this one. So there you have it. It’s easy to see there are some wonderful benefits to wooden teething rings. They are both robust and environmentally sustainable. In addition, they are the safest bet for your baby for soothing those sore teething gums.

Here in Australia, we are a good 10 days to 2 weeks behind the European outbreak. We have our Government making decisions to keep us safe.

Nutrition is such a big part of what we can control as well as our mindset. In a time on uncertainty, let’s focus on what we can control. I wanted to share 5 Products I am using to boost my immune system and my families. ⚡️ Turkey Tail - Honour your gut with Turkey Tail Mushroom Liquid Extract by Life Cykel The Turkey Tail mushroom is an extremely abundant mushroom found predominantly in temperate forests. The name of the mushroom originates from its appearance, as the mushroom fruiting body resembles ruffled feathers of a turkey’s tail as it grows on decaying trees [1]. The Benefits of Turkey Tail Mushroom The bioactive compounds within Turkey Tail mushroom that promote beneficial physiological activities are beta-glucans, mainly polysaccharopeptide (PSP) and Polysaccharide Krestin (PSK). They help to induce the production and activity of immune cells known as cytokines, which are key for cell signalling during an immune response, this in turn may help our body to more efficiently respond to infection [1-3].

In China, the Reishi mushroom is regarded as a symbol of health, longevity, success and divine power.

The mushroom is also well known for its beneficial effects on sleep and relaxation.

Your Summer Detox From Taline Gabriel Your Guide to Natural ... Has your baby been out of sorts lately? Have the ... Chasing Rainbows - Spreading ... Join us in chasing rainbows and to choose JOY. #chasingrainbows2020 ... 5 Products to Keep Your ... Well, things are escalating fast as the world is dealing ... - SEE ALL - How fiber can help in detoxing for Summer and why probiotics like GanedenBC30 are important in maintaining digestive health It’s no secret that good health starts in the gut. Your microbiome, the collection of bacteria that live in your gut, plays an important role in your health and happiness. A healthy gut contributes to a strong immune system, heart health, brain health, improved mood, healthy sleep, and effective digestion. When the microbiome is thrown out of balance for any reason, which may be due to an improper diet, increased stress, toxins and/or other environmental factors, there are usually some common symptoms that prevail. Bloating, gas, diarrhea, nausea or stomach aches are all direct signs that something in the gut isn’t working as it should. The imbalances may repair themselves, but if not, it may require an intervention. One of the most efficient ways to restore a healthy gut flora, increase the good bacteria in your body and give your microbiome a healthy boost is to increase your fiber intake. No huge surprise there. We’ve known for decades that fiber-rich foods are great for us. Studies show that fiber-rich foods work wonders in the body. It has shown to reduce heart disease and some cancers, as well as reduce weight gain. Fiber plays a significant role in keeping our body’s filtration and elimination systems working properly, as it aids in in detoxing through the elimination of toxins. Fiber also plays a vital role in improving the effectiveness of the gastrointestinal system, which contains more than half the body’s immunity. Psyllium husk, found in Connect Foods Organic Fibremax, contains 70 percent soluble fiber, which means it can help increase fullness and slow digestion. It also contains some insoluble fiber, so it passes through the gut relatively intact, providing bulk and helping to keep you regular. In addition to following a fiber-rich diet, adding a quality probiotic to your diet is key in keeping your gut health in check, and can assist in increasing the diversity and number of microbes in your gut for the better. Probiotics like GanedenBC30, contained in Connect Foods Organic Fibremax, are designed by nature to survive and thrive so more probiotic cells can make it to your gut and help support your digestive and immune systems. GanedenBC30 survives the manufacturing processes and stomach acids so that the beneficial bacteria make it more effectively to your digestive system. It requires no refrigeration and has a shelf life of up to three years so you don’t have to worry about keeping the product in the fridge or waste. A combination of fiber-rich foods like psyllium husk and probiotics like GanedenBC30 should be on your summer hot list.

Being Healthy AF but Still Having a Life Your Guide to Natural ... Has your baby been out of sorts lately? Have the ... Chasing Rainbows - Spreading ... Join us in chasing rainbows and to choose JOY. #chasingrainbows2020 ... 5 Products to Keep Your ... Well, things are escalating fast as the world is dealing ... - SEE ALL - We’re here again, a New Year, new decade and a brand new you! The whole New Year resolution thing gets a bad wrap because everyone knows that no one sticks to them anyway, right? What if I told you that you didn’t need to make life-changing, bank-breaking and gross tasting commitments to finally feel like the happy & healthy you that you’ve promised to be since 2010. There are some little lifestyle shifts and nuggets of education that could be just what you need to know to help you find some balance in 2020 and I would love to share them with you. What is so ‘NEAT’ about exercising anyway? Disclaimer, I love strength training and daily exercise is a huge part of my life. But I understand that it just isn’t that way for everyone. So maybe NEAT could be the answer? NEAT = Non-Exercise Activity Thermogenesis What the heck does that mean? It basically means any energy you’re using that isn’t d to be exercise. Things like walking from your car into the shops, walking to the shops instead of driving at all, gardening or maybe choosing to do a few trips taking the groceries inside instead of showing off to your significant other that you can carry them all in one go. You might already go to the gym a few times a week and smash yourself on some cardio apparatus for 30 mins, but I promise you the more time you’re just simply moving outside of the gym has a bigger impact on wether or not you’re in a calorie deficit or not (we’ll get to that soon) and make a bigger difference in staying lean if you’re playing the long game. So, park your car further away from the entrance at the shopping centre, walk there instead of driving, take the stairs instead of the elevator or escalator, give your mate a piggy back so you get to get to steal their NEAT too. Just make the conscious decision to MOVE more every single day and don’t always take the easy option. Meet Mr. Calorie Deficit You’ve probably heard the term by now, calories in VS calories out. It seems like we’ve only just figured it out because it’s suddenly getting a lot of hype. Trust me, it’s not new science and it’s right to be hyped because guess what? It’s the only way to loose weight. We ‘burn’ a certain amount of energy (calories) each day just by being alive. This is from our normal bodily function like breathing and digestion and makes up what is called our BMR (basal metabolic rate). We can figure out roughly how many calories we expend each day by the sum of our BMR, our NEAT and our EAT (exercise activity thermogenesis). This will give us our total daily energy expenditure or TDEE. There are plenty of free TDEE calculators on the web that will do all the hard maths for you and give you an estimated number of how many calories you expend each day. That is the easy part, once you’ve figured out how many calories go out every day, the important bit is how many go in. This is the little bit of commitment that will help you more than anything else if weight loss is your goal. Most people under-estimate calories consumed and over-estimate exercise. It’s up to you to get real with yourself and use a food tracker app like MyFitnessPal for a while to get to know exactly what you’re putting in your body, if it turns out you’re putting in more than you’re putting out, guess what? Those jeans probably wont fit again this year either. The good thing, is that even just the act of starting to track your food will most likely bring an awareness of mindless consuming and will bring those calories down right away. Aim to be in a small calorie deficit of up to 500 Calories, this is more sustainable than trying to cut back to a silly 800 calories a day, giving up after two days and will help the results stick long term. It might feel like a chore at the start but the more you do it, the better you will get at choosing the right amount of food in the future. Too stressed to sleep? Probably the numero uno under-appreciated aspect of a healthy lifestyle to the average Joe. Getting an adequate amount of sleep, as well as good quality sleep is the top pick for most good practitioners and respected people in the human performance realm. Lack of sleep is linked to a higher likely hood of becoming depressed, a higher risk of developing pre-diabetes, a low sex drive and many other health implications. The quality of sleep is so important too, if you’re staring at your phone screen right up until the point where you turn the lights out you might want to consider winding down a little bit earlier and giving your brain some time get ready to rest. Our internal body clock (circadian rythym) works in conjunction with light. By staring at and being surrounded by artificial blue light, our body gets confused and can mess up our production of the sleep hormone, melatonin. If you’re not getting good quality sleep, waking up feeling tired and relying on things like caffeine to wake you up in the morning then your body is in a constant state of stress. When your body is in stress mode, normal bodily functions like digestion and sexual hormone production isn’t a top priority. Get more sleep and get better sleep. It could be one of the biggest factors in 2020 you having smaller love handles and feeling better in general. Put it all together Move more every day, take some steps towards improving your sleep and take some ownership of what goes in your mouth. These small changes can have a huge snowball like effect in helping improve your overall health and motivation. It’s all about balance, baby. I’m not a huge fan of time-specific diets and fitness challenges because I believe in finding a healthy way of living that is sustainable forever. However, if this is all very new to you and you need that accountability, I “challenge” you to download a food tracker app and commit to tracking your food consumption for 30 days. Knowing how many calories are going in, I’m sure you’ll want to know how many are going out, then it’s just a matter of finding that healthy balance. The exercise programs I write for my clients are important, but they also get this sort of information drip-fed to them during our sessions. If you’re anywhere in and around the Claremont area of Perth and could benefit from a fresh outlook on health and fitness, some education and a solid sweat, I’d love to hear from you.

Be prepared to have all your senses challenged by more than 20 bespoke interactive installations from local artists. Sensation of Sight They say vision is the most powerful of all the senses. Our eyes connect us to our surroundings, delivering information to our brain to create an understanding of the world around us. Be prepared to alter your perception of reality a question of what is right in front of your eyes. The aim of the space is to remind you of the complexity and importance of the sense of sight. Artist @universalhobo Sensation of Sound Unmanaged stress can have severe implications on our bodies and minds. This space explores the way in which sound therapy can bring relaxation and restore health. Artist @kimberryberry Sensation of Smell Scent often invokes strong memories and feelings.

In many homes, the kitchen set up will be built for some fun and playful photo opportunities. For those living with neurological conditions, the taste is one of the senses that can be affected, impacting their enjoyment of food and / o appetite and quality of life. It may also be challenging to maintain a healthy nutritional intake. Artist @jordanbrunofficial Sensation of Touch Of the five senses, touch is the one we most apt to take for granted, yet it is vitally important to understanding and relating to our environment through sensations such as temperature, pressure, and pain. This space will be a blast of yellow with holes in which you ill be able to fit your hand. Each hole will have an object inside you won’t be able to see - you won’t be able to see - you will have to put your hand in and touch. Artist @zachaslebyadventures All Roads Lead To The Brain Our five senses connect us to the outside world and our brain allows u understand it. Sensory neurons carry information from the receptor cells throughout the body to the bain. Our brain gathers this information, interprets it and uses it to perceive the world around us, the brain is powered by billions of electrical signals firing every second. In this space, the string lights represent the firing of synapses in the brain. Multiple Sclerosis and other neurological conditions are impacted by the misfiring interruptions or blockage along the neurological pathways and other factors resulting in symptoms that affect motor and sensory functions throughout the body.
