If you’re in England now, you’d be part of a tiny minority to not have heard about the latest craze to sweep the home health and fitness industry. The Wii Fit – a personal training program designed to increase your health and fitness at home.

I’m a gadget man and a Personal Trainer so of course I had to try it out and what better day to do this then on a rainy Sunday afternoon. The Wii Fit comes with a pressure sensitive mat, DVD software and uses the original wireless controller.

Since my last blog all sorts of interesting stuff has been happening! I went to a fantastic weekend NLP seminar run by Chris Howard which I recommend to all of you. It is an introduction to all his other courses but you do some powerful work whilst you are there such as letting go of limiting beliefs and emotions that are holding you back and also breaking your connection with people who no longer serve you in your life (see more about this in my article this month on Letting Go).

The end of February was London Fashion Week where I investigated new ranges and labels to look out for. Some of the ones to really stand out were Gabby Harris, beautifully soft cashmere, 60’s inspired, dresses in lots of pretty colours, Delforte Denim, funky 70’s inspired 100% organic cotton denim from Delforte in San Francisco, Evie Belle, Emma Chapman Jewellery and Raquel Moreno’s Paradise collection of jewellery.

Happy New Year! I have just returned from my adventure to Colombia, it truly is an amazing place. In the months before leaving for my trip nearly everyone I spoke to warned me against it, which confirmed the general point of view of visiting Colombia is that it is a place of kidnappers and general danger. This belief could not be more wrong and I think it is time to get rid of this outdated impression of such a beautiful country. The people were warm and welcoming and are keen to invite people to their country to show that the situation has dramatically improved now. Obviously there are some places to avoid in the big cities but there are places you wouldn't wander into alone at night in London, anywhere you go has it's dodgy areas.

It would be hard to find someone who's not overindulged in one way or another recently. No matter how you celebrate the many events of December at some stage we all generally overeat, over drink, over stress and under sleep – just to name a few!

Often in the days following our overindulgences we hit the gym hard or run a little longer etc just to make up for it - penance for their sins people tell me. Sometimes I want to do it too - just to get away from people or have a bit of "me" time. But it's often the worst thing you can do to your body.
