The Fitness Pilates Newsletter 16th October
Good Morning
This week I am launching a brand new workout for Peri to Post Menopause called The Wellbeing Workout™ for International Menopause awareness Day on Wednesday at 3pm and we have the Fitness Pilates Older Adults & Seated FP course on 19th October.
PLUS we are counting down the days until the London Summit very very excited.
Here is an Autumnal Relaxation Script – Let me know if this is helpful.
Today, we embark on a journey of relaxation and rejuvenation, embracing the serene essence of autumn. Let us find tranquillity and peace within ourselves as we transition into this beautiful season. Find a comfortable, quiet space and lie down on your mat, allowing your body to rest fully.
Preparation (1 minute)
Begin by closing your eyes gently. Take a moment to centre yourself and become aware of your breath. Inhale deeply through your nose, feeling your chest and abdomen expand. Exhale slowly, releasing any tension or stress.
Body Scan (1 minute)
Let your awareness travel through your body, from the tips of your toes to the crown of your head. Notice any areas of tension and consciously relax those muscles. Allow the ground to support you, embracing the sense of ease and lightness.
Autumn Imagery (1 minute)
Visualise a peaceful autumn scene. Picture yourself surrounded by vibrant, golden leaves gently falling from the trees. Feel the crispness of the air against your skin and the gentle rustle of leaves beneath your feet. Let the calm of this imagery wash over you, bringing a sense of peace and serenity.
Breath Awareness (1 minute)
Shift your focus to your breath. Feel the coolness of the inhale and the warmth of the exhale. Let your breath become smooth and rhythmic, like the gentle sway of branches in the autumn breeze. Inhale positivity and exhale any lingering tension.
Progressive Muscle Relaxation (1 minute)
Starting with your toes, gently tense the muscles for a few seconds and then release, letting go of all tension. Move up through your body, tensing and relaxing each muscle group—calves, thighs, abdomen, chest, shoulders, arms, and finally, your face. Feel a wave of relaxation wash over you.
Closing (30 seconds)
Slowly bring your awareness back to the present moment. Wiggle your fingers and toes, gradually reawakening your body. Take a few deep breaths, feeling revitalised and refreshed.
Gratitude (30 seconds)
Express gratitude for this moment of relaxation and the opportunity to take care of your well-being. Carry this sense of calm with you as you continue with your day.
Thank you for joining this autumn relaxation session. May you carry the tranquility of this practice throughout the season. Have a wonderful day. See you on this weeks trainings.
Love Rachel
