Rosie's own wellbeing practice: "I'm a mover, whether it's dancing in my kitchen or lifting at the gym whenever I do anything physical it has a positive affect on me. I also love going out to the theatre or gallery, walking up hills or going on fun adventures outside. I have two small weans who love make believe and role play. Playing with them is something that has really improved my wellbeing and helps bring me into the present moment."
