Let me guess; the last six weeks have forced you out of routine! Now the kids have gone back to school, we have put together 5 top tips to aid you in living the healthy lifestyle we all desire.

Write a Weekly Menu Plan Here is an interesting fact, the average household in the UK throws out 10% of the food from the weekly shop. This happens because people buy food and products they don’t need, due to failing to plan each meal. Instead, we advise that before you go shopping, write a food list based on the healthy, nutritious meals you will be eating from your weekly menu plan. That way, you will not feel tempted to purchase any ‘naughty’ snacks.

2 3

Kill the Snacking Have your breakfasts become early lunches? Have your dinners become larger with a few added snacks in-between? If so, we advise that you set an eating routine to ensure you are eating the correct foods at the right time, while providing your body with enough calories and nutrients to support your goals.

Take Supplements The three essential supplements that are perfect for staying healthy this Autumn are those that will reduce any deficiencies, limit inflammation, and improve your immunity. The most beneficial vitamins are Vitamin C, Vitamin D and Vitamin B2. Find a Tribe

Working out with friends or family can be fun and motivating. Eating well and finding people who understand your journey will help you achieve your goals more efficiently.

Evening/Morning Walks Walking is simple, yet powerful. It can help you stay trim, improve cholesterol, strengthen bones while also lifting your mood. Walking 30 – 60 minutes a day will increase your physical activity and will help you burn further calories. Read our other article further on in the directory - a lovely written piece that informs you of our favourite walking trails within Hampshire.

3. Set Clear Goals

BEAUTIFUL HANDMADE CURTAINS Top Tips on Getting the In one study, 63 percent of employees reported that they wasted time at work because they weren’t aware of what work was a priority, and what wasn’t. As a leader, it’s your job to work with the members of your team to set clear goals. And once you do that, make sure everyone knows exactly what those goals are, what their relative priority is, and what the team’s role is in reaching them.

4. Offer Opportunities for Self-Development

AUTUMN SPECIAL

So, aim to get in touch with what makes your job meaningful to you. Then, communicate this excitement with your employees by sharing your personal goals, projects you’re eager to work on, or the mission you, your department, or your company stands for. The more transparent you are with the “why” behind everything you do, the more likely people will be convinced to get excited and involved.

The members of your team will be more valuable to your organisation and to themselves, when they have opportunities to learn new skills. Finally, keep in mind that everyone’s different, and what works in motivating one employee may not necessarily work for another. So, when you’re struggling to figure out how to motivate employees, they best thing you can do is ask them.

3. Set Clear Goals

1. Share Your Passion with Your Team Have you ever had a boss who was simply going through the motions without much care for anything they did? It was probably an uphill battle to be productive when your leader wasn’t pulling their weight and showing enthusiasm for their role. Researchers in their study found that leaders who showed passion for their work were more motivating and energising to be around. So, aim to get in touch with what makes your job meaningful to you. Then, communicate this excitement with your employees by sharing your personal goals, projects you’re eager to work on, or the mission you, your department, or your company stands for. The more transparent you are with the “why” behind everything you do, the more likely people will be convinced to get excited and involved.

LOCAL WALKS WIT HIN

HA MP SH IRE

From open down lands, ancient woodlands, to charming villages and attractive coastlines. There are plenty of beautiful walking trails to visit within Hampshire. St Catherine’s Hill This walk starts from Garnier Road Winchester, SO23 9PA. You will have chance to explore Winchester itself, a historic bustling cathedral city, before the walk passes through the tranquil water meadows and along the River Itchen. The route then climbs St Catherine’s Hill, the site of an ancient hill fort which provides stunning views across the city, before descending and continuing along another stretch of the river and back to the city. To find the map for this walking route visit www.hiwwt.org.uk. Holly Bank Woods Hollybank Woods is just North of Emsworth at the end of Holly Bank Lane, PO10 7EU. The woods are managed day to day by the Friends of Hollybank Woods for conservation and forestry on behalf of Havant Borough Council. The area comprises 157 acres of mostly mature broadleaved woodland, with a younger conifer forestry plantation and groups of conifer stands. Feel free to wonder on different trails in the woods, who knows what you might come across! Beaulieu Food Trail Explore the beautiful Hampshire village of Beaulieu, before following the Beaulieu River south to the shipbuilding village of Bucklers Hard. The Trail starts from Palace Lane, Brockenhurst, SO427YG and is 2.2 miles each way. But, your day out can be as long or short as you like. To find the map for this walking route visit www.thenewforest.co.uk.

Brockenhurst to Lyndhurst This 6.5-mile walk starts at Hollands Wood in Brockenhurst, SO42 7QH, winding through wildlife-rich forests to Beechen Lane in Lyndhurst. Look out for deer and ponies as you make your way north towards the ‘capital’ of the New Forest. To find the map for this walking route visit www.thenewforest.co.uk. Hayling Billy Trail The Hayling Billy Coastal Path is a track used by walkers, cyclists and horse riders along the bed of an old railway line between Havant and Hayling Island. The Hayling Billy Trail starts in the car park of Havant train station. Follow the clearly marked cycle path to New Lane and through the crossing gates. You may of course join the trail at numerous points along the way. The Ship Inn at Langstone is a wonderful place to stop for drinks or a bite to eat on route. To find the map for this walking route visit www.walkandcycle.co.uk. Thinking about adding more physical activity to your day? Walking can also be a great way to get more active!

£1,435 raised for the Cancer Services Department at Queen Alexandra Hospital Hannah and Ella from Portsmouth have raised an amazing £1,435 for the Cancer Services Department at Queen Alexandra Hospital, Cosham! Both Hannah and Ella from Portsmouth, took part in the Portsmouth Hospitals Charity’s WardWalk event and have raised £1,435. They decided to raise money for the Cancer Services Department to say thank you after Hannah’s Father in Law received great treatment there. Following a routine blood test for his diabetes, Barry was diagnosed with a fast-growing type of Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. This diagnosis meant that he had to spend weeks at a time in hospital undergoing 6 courses of intensive chemotherapy. Barry credits the combined Haematology and Oncology Unit for helping him get through this very difficult time and has now been given the all clear!

important to ‘get up, get dressed, get moving’ while in hospital. Portsmouth Hospitals Charity, based at Queen Alexandra Hospital in Cosham aim to support the patients of Portsmouth Hospitals NHS Trust by improving existing facilities by providing additional equipment, supporting research programmes and innovation in the development of services and education to both patients and staff. The charity supports all the Wards and Departments across Portsmouth Hospitals. If you want to support or fundraise for a hospital close to your heart visit www.cancerresearchuk.org.

The cheque was presented to Ruth Carter, Head of Cancer Services. The money raised helped them with the ‘End PJ Paralysis’ project. The unit will have place mats printed to put on patient’s bedside tables, along with poster boards to explain why it is
