Listen to interview with host Eric Michaels & guest Vanessa Bartlett discuss the following:

1. What's happened in recent years for people to be feeling more stress in their lives ?
2. What effect does this have on people's health and wellbeing?
3. We have heard the saying ' exercise is medicine' ... how can exercise be a solution to this and what are some differences between Pilates and other forms of exercise being able to help people?
4. So what is pilates and what have you seen it help with the most in people?
5. What are your top tips to help the listeners overcome stress and fatigue right now?

With presenting appearances on the TVSN Home Shopping Channel, Channel 7 Morning Show and hosting various lifestyle online and community lifestyle shows, Vanessa has a vast understanding of what it takes to get in shape, stay in shape and build a healthy, sustainable lifestyle – both mind and body.

Vanessa has helped now in the thousands of women transform their bodies through her popular group classes and personal coaching and is known to help clients reach their optimal level of health with greater awareness of mindset. This is achieved through her unique combination of Pilates and Fitness methods, due to experiencing her own downfall with health.

After being constantly exhausted and sick for two years in her mid twenties, she was diagnosed with adrenal fatigue, so began researching more ‘holistic’ exercise and health practices and studied the mind/body connection and its’ power in healing and restoring health and energy.

While having to cut back on ‘mainstream’ fitness to get well, she began doing Pilates and yoga and discovered that Pilates was able to energise, tone, strengthen and refocus her entire body and mind unlike other forms of exercise which left her feeling drained, so pursued its study.

Vanessa has studied with leading Pilates practitioners in Australia and also ‘safe spine’ expert Rebecca Leone (USA).

She has coached the Canterbury Bulldogs first grade NRL team in Pilates, and is part of an innovative wellness program to help people with mental health illness use Pilates and fitness to improve their condition.

Vanessa and the team from Canterbury Mental Health received an award for ‘Innovation in Healthcare’ in 2013 for this project and it is continuing today with success. She has also been featured in the Daily Telegraph for her expertise in core strength and helping people relieve back pain through her method of training.
