My 40 before 40 list

I’m a passionate advocate of self improvement so I wanted to include things that required me to learn something new. I wanted to stretch myself physically and mentally, gain knowledge and new skills, overcome fears, give up bad habits and lots of things were just for fun.

As children we find it easy to see endless potential and adventure in the world but somehow as we get older we become more cautious and hold back. You just need to look around you to see the many experiences, however small, just waiting to be discovered and enjoyed.

In no particular order...here it is.

1. Treat myself to a Spa Day

2. Complete an Acro Yoga course

3. Relearn to do a Back flip

4. Eat Oysters

5. Complete a 12 week Aerial Arts Course to include, Silks, Static and Flying Trapeze
