Nourish’s wellbeing Roundup

This month we’re putting the Nourish spotlight on Savannah Spencer. We’ve been so inspired watching the health & fitness coach’s pregnancy journey with her 3rd child, and now with a newborn in tow, we caught up with her about her nourishing daily rituals and habits.

 MY HEALTH & HAPPINESS HABITS – SAVANNAH SPENCER

Can you tell us a little bit about your work?

 I am an online health and fitness coach based in Mallorca. I coach women all over the world, helping them become the healthiest, fittest and happiest version of themselves, both physically and mentally. I offer fitness and nutrition coaching that is enjoyable & sustainable for all lifestyles, connecting with clients via my fitness app which is downloadable from app stores. I also specialise in pre/postnatal fitness and nutrition for expecting mums and new mums.

• Certified Health & Fitness Coach
• Nutrition Coach
• Life Coach
• Pre/postnatal Coach

I like to combine these skills to bring a completely unique service to my clients.

What did you have for breakfast today?

 I had a protein and mixed frozen berry smoothie with oat milk and a toasted seeded bagel with peanut butter – this is easy for me to eat whilst breastfeeding.

What does your morning routine look like?

 Mornings are very interesting right now with a newborn baby and 2 older children! But I always prioritise time for myself to start the day because it’s super important for me to be aligned and positive before my family rise.

I get up, make a glass of lemon water, sit out on the balcony to drink it and spend 5 minutes speaking my morning affirmations and reminding myself of my blessings and health. I wake the older children, and as they get prepared for school I use this time to breastfeed Gia (my newborn) and get her ready and in the carrier for the school run. I walk the children to school, and then Gia and I head to the beach for our morning movement, not before picking up a takeaway coffee on the way (newborn sleep deprivation!). I usually complete between 8-10 thousand steps at the beach and Gia loves the natural white noise of the sea. We head home before the sun gets hot and I get the laptop out ready to connect with my online clients.

My typical morning affirmations:

• I am happy
• I am healthy
• I am wealthy
• I am positive
• I am blessed
• I am grateful
• I am capable of anything today may bring my way

 What is your number one health habit?

 Just one would have to be, starting every morning with a positive mindset because this is key to having a good day!

What is your guilty pleasure?

 Almond croissants from Palma Bread. I was hoping my craving would end after pregnancy but here we are, still craving them haha!

 What’s one book you’d recommend everyone to read?

If pregnant “Hypnobirthing: Practical Ways to Make Your Birth Better” – by Siobhan Miller (founder of The Positive Birth Company). If not, “The Power” – by Rhonda Byrne – a self-help & spiritual book that will completely transform your mindset.

In Mallorca, where is your favourite place to: 

• De-stress: In the gym or exercising
• Move: At the beach
• Shop: I do enjoy FAN especially now with their changing & nursing facilities for the baby! I am also partial to a Primark & Starbucks visit when I go
• Dine: AHIMSA plant-based food & café – Cala Major
• Stay: At my seafront apartment where I count my blessings each day for waking up here!
