To Live with Vitality is to embrace life with energy and purpose through your emotions. Emotions are the heartbeat of your thoughts, allowing you to feel what you are thinking, determine what you pay attention to and how you make decisions. Positive emotion doesn’t just feel good – it allows you to be more successful in life (whether you judge success by your achievements, relationships, creativity, energy, or your health).
Emotion involves a Physical-Mind-Spirit-Connection
Imagine you feel abundant, creative, happy and attuned to your senses and experiences. This is the essence of the heart-brain connection and positive emotional energy. A grateful heart, open, kind and emotionally agile. A rich emotional bank account with a reservoir of positivity that you can draw upon whenever you need it, enabling you to flourish in your personal and professional life.

Imagine you feel energised and invigorated when you might otherwise feel tired and depleted. Exuding robust physical health better able to fight inflammation, illness and disease.
Lengthening not just life span but also your health span (the number of years you stay healthy). Adding years to your life and life to your years. Becoming a blue zone warrior who maximizes the expression of your epigenomic potential. That’s what the possibility of vibrant physical vitality offers.
Imagine your mind being really focused and present, You embrace change, curious to learn, with a strong sense of attentive self-awareness. Crystal clear in your decision making, responsive, with laser-like focus to execute on your priorities.
Spirituality can serve a fundamental need to find comfort, inspiration or something sacred in your life right now today. (Inspiration comes from the Latin words ‘in spira’ – in spirit, with source.)
Imagine your spiritual energy is high. You have an inner knowing that what you do, and more importantly who you are, really does matter. You have a deep sense of conviction and serenity, fueled by a strong sense of purpose and meaning.
You are living in balance and harmony with yourself, with others and with your environment.

Wanting what you already have and seeing the world through the lens of abundance and appreciation is a powerful antidote to stress and anxiety. Giving to others through compassion, empathy and acts of kindness.
Building that tipping point of positivity to make a real difference to your own vitality and also in the lives of those people that matter to you. Emotion is contagious out to three degrees of separation, affecting not just your work colleagues but their connections too. Your friends, their friends and their friends too (people you don’t even know) are impacted by your degree of emotional positivity.
Being engaged, energised and challenged. Performing at, or close to, the best of your abilities ‘being in the zone’, – peak experience through peak performance.
Leveraging your epigenome to support vibrant physical energy, a robust immune system, and reduced risk of chronic illness from diabetes and dementia to coronary heart disease and countless others. Embracing Lifestyle as Medicine.
Optimising your chronobiology to align with your circadian rhythm and ensure enough restorative sleep.
Food as medicine to support your microbiome, metabolism and gut-brain connection, enabling you to think, feel and simply perform better.
Learn to recharge from stress and optimise the mind-body connection. Utilising a strength-based approach to life, and a growth mindset to foster grit, perseverance and realistic optimism, all hallmarks of real resilience.
Meditation supports a stronger sense of self-awareness to optimise attention span, focus and decision making. Build powerful habits that stick, and support your willpower muscle to tame the ego.
To know and express your values as a fundamental driver of what you do and who you are.
Purpose enables you to join the dots in your life, to connect the personal and the professional, the scholarly and the spiritual. To make a difference and real contribution.
Strong relationships are the leading indicator of your wellbeing. As human beings you thrive based on the strength and quality of these human connections. More connected to others means less ‘me’ and more ‘we.’ The basis for a rich, meaningful and flourishing life.
The environments you spend your time in can be vitality enhancing or vitality depleting.
Self-Care is a gift to you and everyone that matters in your life. Not an egotistical, narcissistic form of self-centred care but holistic to include mind, body, emotion and spirit all interconnected. Self-Care includes self-awareness, self-acceptance and truly knowing yourself, the starting point for self-renewal.
