Reformer Pilates
I’m sure you’ve heard it before - it’s been in all the fashion magazines - Reformer Pilates is one of the go-to exercise options for those who want a full body exercise session that tones and lengthens the physique, without the hard bouncing and landing on your joints that traditional gym exercises have. Many people, including a huge number of celebrities and sport stars have regular sessions to maintain their physical shape and strength, or have their own reformer at home so they can have 24/7 access to the joys of reformer Pilates. But if you haven’t actually done a session before - what the heck is it?! Firstly, let’s break down the name to help see where it all comes from.
A Healthy Lifestyle, Revisited
At Movementality, we believe a healthy lifestyle revolves around finding a healthy balance between a strong and nourish body, a sharp and clear mind, and strong but kind spirit. This is not an easy balance to maintain with the many different stressors and lifestyle factors that work against us. But having a positive mindset, and fostering productive habits around clean food, adequate sleep, consistent exercise, plenty of social time and regular meditation can all help with keeping the balance. And when you feel more balanced, you are more likely to feel like you can take control of your own happiness. Creating and paying attention to this mind-body-spirit balance will allow you to feel when things start to go awry, and better prepare you for the myriad of unpredictable daily stressors we all regularly face.
