Soulfit Newsletters - February 2020 - It's Time to Talk
Talk about busy times...
In a month, when Mental Health has been at the forefront of every conversation, on every playing field... we wanted to share what we've been up to, how we've been tackling it... and what we've planned for the months ahead
We always wanted Soulfit to make you feel better the minute you walked in through our doors... and particularly right now, during these cold, dark, wet days... when we're hearing more heartbreaking stories of the battles people we know, love, idolise even, are facing... we know how vital it is to create a space that offers respite, community & rejuvenation
Alternative Lewes Talks
Inspired by Ted's talks, and with the theme 'Something Positive' we were honoured to be invited to talk alongside Chris Lambert who crossed Greenland's ice cap; the author, artist & comedian Laurence Shorter & the wonderful voice therapist, singer & writer Adrienne Thomas.
We felt it important to share our own journey, how we've used exercise to get us through difficult periods of stress & how hard it is to pick yourself up each day and put yourself ahead of everyone else. We also talked about some of the very special people who's lives have been impacted & supported by Soulfit.
We'd love to share this talk with you, and will be announcing details of our plans over the coming weeks

Soulfit & Lewes FC collaborate for the FA's #HeadsUp campaign
We teamed up this month to launch a super-powerful, honest & raw campaign with the legendary Lewes FC.
Knowing how important our yoga teachers, the Lewes FC Women's team and members of the Rooks management team are to so many of us, we invited them to talk openly & candidly about their own experiences with mental health. These people are incredible role models, and we were blown away by their words. They're proof that every one of us is facing a challenge of some sort, be it first-hand or through a loved one. Exercise can play a vital role in the management of mental health. It isn't the total solution. But it's pivotal.
