This was one of my most anticipated releases for the year and Meryl certainly did not disappoint! Ya’ll know I can’t get enough of sports romances, and I’ve been absolutely loving sapphic romances, so combining my two favourites was just fabulous!

Wellness: Through & Through | Part Six: The 5am Club

I’ve spent the last decade online watching videos and reading blogs and articles all claiming that waking up at 5am is the key to changing your life, being productive, becoming to most successful person in the world, the list goes ON.

As part of this experiment on my body that I’ve been undertaking here on Wellness: Through & Through, I really wanted to try out waking up at 5am and see what changes it had on my life and body.

If you’re more of a video person, I’ve uploaded a video to my channel for you to watch here, but if you want to see a structured, written out approach, come with me through a journal style approach to waking up at 5am.

Immediately when I first thought about getting into the 5am routine, I was filled with doubts at the possibility of me becoming a morning person.

I had hated waking up early for 7am starts when I was in retail and hospitality, I could never imagine doing it WILLINGLY, let alone enjoying it.

But was I in for the shock of my life - waking up at 5am has changed my life, and I will never go back.

There are so many significant changes I’ve noticed in my daily routine that have been positive additions since starting my 5am routine and I hate to admit it, but all those articles were correct. It is life changing, you do become a better person.

I want to start this from the outset saying that waking up at 5am is not going to be for everyone. But I think if the idea has crossed your mind ever, it’s worth giving it a go.

The biggest change I’ve found in waking up at 5am is that when combined with early morning exercise, I am so much more productive throughout my entire day. It’s actually embarrassing to think about what I was doing before I was waking up at 5am.

I was doing so much less, I was a lot more lethargic and I was procrastinating a huge amount throughout the day.

I’m not in any way saying that waking up at 5am has fixed all my problems or cured my love of procrastination, but I am so much more focused and on point when I’m waking up and exercising before the sun has risen.

I have noticed that when exercise is not factored into the morning routine, I am less productive so that should be noted, but it’s a huge thing that has changed for me.

Combined in that little change, I’ve noticed I am far less lethargic throughout the afternoon, a fact that has really surprised me.

Where I would normally go through a mid-afternoon slump, I am powering through my to-do lists, work or off time on the weekends. It’s like a magic trick.

I’m not sure what the cause of this is, but I’m sure there is a scientist out there who has done a study on it.

One thing I have enjoyed thoroughly about waking up at 5am, is the extra two hours I get to myself in the morning. Where I was rushing around, shoving my breakfast down my throat and burning my mouth on hot coffee, now I am relaxed, showered and able to eat my breakfast at a normal pace while reading a book.

There is also a beautiful smell in the air early in the morning, that fades away as the day goes on. I can’t describe it, but I’m sure other people who are early risers can relate. It’s a fresh, crisp smell that hits your nose, and it almost is what I would imagine a fresh imagination to smell like.

I think deep down it’s the knowledge that nothing bad has happened in the day yet, and there is so much opportunity yet to come, it’s the smell of a new beginning!

A beautiful part of waking up so early is getting the opportunity to see the sunrise every single day. It’s getting later for me as daylight savings has ended in Melbourne and winter is setting in, but there is really nothing like watching the sunrise and the day begin, knowing you’ve already gotten through the first few hours.

So, if you hadn’t already guessed, this is a tried and approved message to give the 5am club a go. I honestly am obsessed with waking up early now. I don’t know if it’s because I’m getting older and this is what happens, but it’s definitely something I wish I had done earlier.

Two tips I have for anyone giving this a go:

1. Preparation is key: make sure you’re getting enough sleep the night before, that you’re hydrated before bed and that you have your clothes ready to go for the following morning to motivate you to move from the comfortable pillow palace you’ve made yourself over night. It will be a rough first week/two weeks when you begin, but if you’re ready to go from the moment you open your eyes, it will make it so much easier.

2. Have a consequence for not getting up - I always book a 6am pilates class to force me out of bed, otherwise I’ll cop a late cancellation or a no-show fee. Having something to do as soon as you get up is honestly the key to success with this, especially if you’re a lover of sleep like I am.

Don’t put too much pressure on yourself if you’re giving this a go, it’s not the easiest thing in the world to conquer. The day won’t change if you get up at 5.30am or 5.45am, but I think it’s really worth giving it a go, even just to give yourself an extra few hours in the morning to do something you enjoy, like read a book, or catch up on a TV show.

Let me know if you give this one a go, and how you enjoyed/hated it in the comments below!

You can find me on all my other socials using the handle @kweenofthieves, but outside that, I’ll be back with you all next week!

All my love,

Gxx

Week 11 Blog:

Cloudstreet

Tim Winton

Pages Read (1-30)

Word Count: 418

Summary:

As the book begins we are introduced to 2 lower class families. The Pickles in the Lambs who both live in Perth Western Australia. This story takes place in the beginning of WWII. We get to know one of the families, and early in the story discover they own a small grocery store where everyone around town shops. As you are introduced to the families and all its members you can see that there are a lot of problems going on, not just poverty, but abuse of drugs and alcohol. They live in a corrupt world, and a corrupt system at a corrupt time. Clearly everyone was struggling and they made that evident in the first 2 chapters that I read.

Analysis:

The quote I'm choosing to analsize in this week's blog is my third interesting quote of the week. On page 27 Tim WInton states, “He looks like a statue in a fountain with that light. I Want to be careful that someone doesn't come over and toss in a penny to make a wish. ‘What would they wish for, ya reckon?’ Quick asks. ‘Yeah, what?’ Lester Lamb asks. Prolly wish they could get their money back, I reckon.” Now what really had me intrigued about this quote and the reason I chose it for my most interesting quote wasn’t even what they were talking about but it was just the choices of diction, and the Australian vocabulary. When I started obsessing over Australia, I wanted to talk just like them, and I loved their slang and the way they abbreviate everything. So when I saw the word “Reckon” it's pretty cool, and makes me feel like one of them. Many Americans don’t know what it means and how to use it, I didn’t either, but as you engage yourself more in the culture you pick up on many cool things.

Personal Response:

I didn’t know what to expect as I started this book, I just started reading, and hoped to understand and enjoy the reading. I like the fact that there are many hard truths, and Winton truly doesn’t try to hide that or filter it. He tells a story that includes the harsh realities of many lives here in the U.S. It's not always rainbows and romance with a happy ending. And even though I do prefer to read fiction books that do end in a happy ending, I can really appreciate what the book represents, and the story it's beginning to tell.

Wellness: Through & Through - Pilates and Running Update

Hello friends!

This week I'm going to return to the beginning of my health and wellness experiment that I started last year and talk about pilates.

To the people who know me and who read this blog please forgive me because no I cannot shut up about pilates, but I seriously can't stop.

It's been one year since I began practicing pilates and I am completely embedded in the cult-like practice and seriously can't stop talking about it.

But in any case, I've been doing pilates five times a week for the last 12 months and I've noticed amazing results in that time both mentally and physically.

Since the start of this experiment I have done a lot of things to improve my health and general wellbeing, but pilates is the one thing that has stayed in my routine.

In celebration of this, I've decided to really challenge myself over the next three weeks and run a half marathon while also completing a 5x5 challenge being done by my pilates studio.

If you're interested in my plan and current progress, keep reading here!

Ok so, like I said, I've been doing pilates for 5 days a week every week (except for the period between July - September when I was of course, travelling), and to say I haven't noticed the difference in my body would be a huge lie.

I have said it before and I will reiterate it now, I don't believe in exercising for only aesthetic reasons - I think it's a dangerous way to exist and can easily spiral into disordered eating and other problematic behaviours that can negatively affect health. However, I have noticed a huge difference in my body since beginning pilates. When I started the practice I was in a really bad mental state, I had put on weight and was doing next to no exercise at all. I needed a shock to my system. When I saw my body in comparison to what I looked like a mere eight months prior, I was shocked. Flabbergasted. Taken aback by how much I had let myself go mentally that I didn't notice the physical change in myself. It was like looking at myself with clear eyes again.

I got a really good deal at my studio as they had just opened and started going a few times a week. I slowly upped the days I would go until now where I try to get there at least 5 times, if not more. I have noticed that I am not only stronger, more lean and definitely slightly more muscular, but I have also dropped a significant amount of bloatedness and weight around my stomach, back and arms.

The more important factors of difference for me however, have been the mental health changes I have noticed. I am happier and more focused and have so much more clarity in my daily thoughts and tasks. My sleep is much deeper and of better quality and in general I am just a much more healthy person.

I enjoy the practice of pilates as a whole and the instructors at my studio are amazing, which definitely makes a difference for me.

On to the half marathon.

I began running properly in the Covid lockdowns, despite a lifetime telling myself that I hated running and that I was bad at it. Now I'm fully in the cult of running as well. This year I made a resolution that I would run a half marathon, and I decided to finally bite the bullet and sign up for one in the last month of the year.

I will be running 21kms on December 3rd in Melbourne and I have started training properly (a bit later than I should have but better late than never) while also doing a pilates challenge, which means I'll be doing two types of strenuous exercise twice a day.

I've been attempting to run most days now for two weeks. This hasn't gone off to the best start but I've been trying!

I definitely have had to up my food intake and water intake and I'll be purchasing electrolyte jellies to try out before the big day.

I'll update you all as I go along and if you want to get in the moment or more consistent updates, head over to my instagram and tiktok!

Otherwise, I'll be back next week with another blog post and as always please let me know if there is anything specific you want to hear/read about, I want this blog to be like a conversation with you all.

Love always,

G xx

Andrà Tutto Bene

You know how they say ‘what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger?’ Well, I think that’s a pretty good way to sum up 2018.

It hasn’t been all that great. Lots of really sad and really horrible things have happened.

Honestly, I was going to list a few but it just makes me want to cry, and I don’t want to make you guys cry either. So instead, let me delve in to the reason I am writing this post:

Ho…
