My name is Wendy Friston and I am a Personal Trainer and Vitality
Consultant, based in the UK. I have a holistic approach to Health and
Fitness because I believe that the mind and body should be trained as one. I
have been interested in Alternative Health for many years, and trained as a
Reiki and Qi Gong Healer, a Colour Breathing Practitioner and a Laughter
Leader a few years ago.

Modern lifestyles can play havoc with our bodies. People are becoming more
obese and the World's Health is in crisis. Just think . how often do you use
the car or a bus when you could walk to your destination? Do you often grab
fast food because you are too tired or too busy to cook properly? Have you
gained a few inches on your waistline over recent years? Are you less
flexible than you used to be? As you are getting older, is your health
starting to suffer? And most importantly have you been blaming everything on
the ageing process or turning to the nearest Pharmacy for advice?

It is very easy to turn to conventional medicine for answers these days, but
sometimes the best answers have been around for many centuries. By looking
at the wisdom and experience of our Elders and those before them, we can
often find ancient solutions to very modern problems. Our own Health and
Fitness should be nurtured, as it is the one thing that keeps us going from
cradle to grave. If there is a natural way to regain the balance we need in
our often overcrowded lives, then surely we should be going out there to
grab it with both hands!

Alternative Health isn't about Hocus Pocus . It is about looking after our
bodies in the way Mother Nature intended and making this fit in easily with
our daily lives. Cars, computers, modern homes, fast food restaurants and TV
dinners are among the many inventions of recent times - we weren't born to
live our lives through the media, glued to the television or to spend our
time in sedentary occupations . Now is the time to get our bodies back and
start to enjoy living a naturally healthy lifestyle again .
