Recipe for a stress free lifestyle

My philosophy around managing stress is simply to ensure that you put yourself first - if you don't look after yourself you can't keep all the balls in the air that you need to. It's not selfish or self-centred and you shouldn't feel bad about pampering yourself or feel you have to earn it - it should be a lifestyle choice - it's good common sense and makes you personally effective.

A lot of the people I work with share the same philosophy. Stephen Davies of Fit to You, is a personal trainer also based in Formby. His recipe for personal wellness is simple:

• Combine all the following ingredients for a delicious life -a daily balanced diet, an active lifestyle, mix thoroughly with enjoyable exercise, a batch of fun and laughter and sprinkle in a love of work. Pour in some good sleep, quality time with friends and family and self. Easy!

Thankfully, Stephen is on hand to guide you through. He will draw up a personal plan and be right there alongside encouraging you - giving much more motivation than a gym subscription would give you - and is therefore more effective for your money.
