My 1st month in Brazil

I have now been out here for a month and I am so happy about making the decision to leave the UK

I am settling into my lifestyle and really enjoying life.

In the space of 30 days I have noticed some big differences to life back home

Freedom

The first thing I realised quite early on was how I was feeling in the morning waking up to start the day.

Usually away over this part of the world I would wake up to a bombardment of messages related to my old business, that became very stressful on my body and I have only realised how much extra weight I was carrying around with myself

Doing something I LOVE doing as my job

I love coaching and now I get to do this everyday. I get excited about going into every session and it lights me up. As a coach I get to share my experiences and show the impact it has on my life by living out my purpose to allow others to identity and find theirs. We all have the power to do what we want and I help others do the same

My diary, my terms

I now have the power to do everything I want to and being ok with making these decisions. My responsibility just falls on me and I am now enjoying being fully in control of my diary. I spent two days away on a farm which was off grid and I had no access to my phone. It is an empowering feeling and it has allowed me to be more present in the moments with loved ones without future thinking about what May come my way when the phone turns back on

Health

It has really highlights how the things we take for granted plays a crucial role in our health and happiness. The food, the weather, the nature all obviously make things easier however it has also highlighted how much more I could have done back home to really keep my health up.

Paying attention to the foods we put in our body can change everything. We all have control in regards to what goes into our body and the majority of the time we are not present or disciplined enough to stay on top of it. For short term gains, we miss out on long term effects and usually that amazing tasting chocolate usually makes us feel worse after all. It’s very easy for me to say this now I am here, it’s just put things in perspective and shown me how different I feel from nourishing my body with the right foods. It’s certainly something to pay close attention to.

If we want a healthier life, we have to keep working at it everyday.

Best decision I have made being out here and I am excited to see what happens over the next few months
