We know the hustle and bustle of everyday life can get a little draining. However, it’s important during all the busy periods of life to find a moment or two for yourself. Here are some ways to reset your focus this month. Read on to find out more.
Start Training With A City PT
The team at City Matters kicked off 2025 with a few sessions from John Pierson at The Workout Network and here are our thoughts.
The one-to-one sessions last about an hour. During the first session, we focused mainly on strength training, a combination of deadlifts and core exercises. Other sessions have also consisted of squats, lunges, and upper body exercises. But let’s be real — personal training can be pretty tough, especially if you’re new. However, between sets, John provided feedback, encouragement and support.
John does add the fun factor back into training, he’s knowledgeable and motivates you to get the best out of your session even when you feel like you’re ready to give up.
Whether you’re looking to drop a few pounds this month, build muscle or improve your general health, training with John Pierson at The Workout Network is a fantastic way to get started and help you get into shape.

Gain Advice From A Nutritionist
With 15 years of experience in leading and developing high performance teams, Nutritionist Becca Meadows, founder of She Thrives is on hand to support women to prioritise their own health and thrive in work and family life.
In the initial session, Becca runs through any health issues, such as high blood pressure, IBS, diabetes and cholesterol, and what needs to be done to tackle this from a nutritional point of view. Becca tries to understand the root of the complexities and issues to help clients push forward and progress with better health. She also provides clients with a community-based support space helping them to thrive. The team at City Matters also loved the tailored food plan – incorporating food groups that are kitchen staples for us.
Becca Meadows is an absolute delight to speak with – she is compassionate, understanding, encouraging and listens to what the client needs to change habits that might be holding them back. If you’re looking to make changes in your personal life then it’s without a doubt that you need to book a session.

Speak With A Psychic Medium
This month, if you’re looking to try something new then why not speak to a Psychic Medium? We highly recommend Rosie Morgan. Through her Mediumship, Rosie communicates with loved ones, people, animals and Angels to deliver messages and guidance. Her impressive background in Counselling Psychology & Education, ignited her passion for helping others. During the session, Rosie Morgan will use her expertise to lock in and connect with the angels to deliver messages to the client. Whether you’re in the mood for a private 30 minute or 60 minute session, which can be online and in person (in London) this is a wonderful experience.
Speak To A Therapist
If you’re keen to speak with a therapist who is understanding, kind and compassionate, then the team at City Matters highly recommends a session with psychotherapist and counsellor, Carole Asmerian. She is deeply committed to the fields of emotional and mental well-being, as well as personal development.
In our initial session, we spoke at length about issues that we’re currently facing. She offers guidance and will assess your situation. From that, we worked on ways to overcome this. Speaking to Carole Asmerian, was a great experience, she takes time to understand the challenges that clients are facing and suggests real steps that are needed to overcome these problems.
She also runs UK Spiritual Adventure Travel company, The Portal, perfect for those navigating fast-paced city life or working digitally, who are seeking deeper balance and connection.The Portal is a unique experience that blends spirituality, nature, and deep personal transformation. It’s designed as an immersive retreat for those who want to break free from stress, reconnect with themselves, and cultivate a more grounded and fulfilling life.
