Hello Toggers!

Christmas Gift Guide, BF Togger Offers & a stroll along a canal
Learning to let go
In the blink of a eye we’re already at the end of November. There is a crispness to the air, parts of the country have already had their first blanket of snow of the season and the nights have very much drawn in. I think there is a very special magic about this time of year. As the trees shed the last of their leaves – we’re reminded of the importance of letting go.
 
For a tree, shedding their leaves is about helping to prepare them for the season ahead by releasing what is no longer serving them, helping them conserve their energy ready for the incoming winter. And perhaps there is a lesson there for us all to take? What is it that we could let go of? What is perhaps taking our energy but is no longer serving us?

Chichester Canal

This week we’re heading to the West Sussex city of Chichester for our walk along the canal. A short distance from the train station is the canal basin where we start, following the tow path alongside the canal as it takes us to Chichester Harbour. Whilst boats can no longer travel this stretch of the canal, it is rich with wildlife. If you’re lucky you might spot mute swans, mallards, grey herons or even a kingfisher.

Christmas is coming …

Bounce your way into 2026
I have been loving my Bounce Rebounder this year. It is such a simple way to get my heart rate up, boost my mood and look after my joints, especially on days when I cannot get out for a long walk.

For anyone who has been asking about it, there is a really good Black Friday offer running at the moment.

  • Up to 30% off Rebounders
  • Plus a free pair of grip socks when you use my codes
  • 17 Offer runs until 5 December 2025

If you decide to try one, use my codes BOUNCEJULIA or JULIABOUNCE at checkout. Your free socks will be added to your parcel even though they will not appear in the online basket.

This is not about perfection or big workouts. It is about little daily bursts of movement that support your body and mind!
