'This industry excites me, in a Big Kev kind of way!  I don’t know of anything more powerful than good health.  It influences our behaviour, moods, energy, concentration, ability to relate to ourselves and others, our performance longevity, happiness…just to begin with.  From a business point of view, staying driven to excel in health and fitness is not difficult.  Not only has the industry experienced tremendous growth over the past decade but more importantly, there is still so much to develop, invent and innovate.   Slaice, along with its partners will be playing a leading role in what’s to come'.

MANDI'S PHILOSOPHY:

1. When it comes to the importance of health and what it can do for an individual, some people will get it, others won’t.  It’s best to ‘get it’ independent of illness, injury or pain.
2. You must look after yourself first.  You owe it to yourself and those around you to 'show up' in the best possible condition – physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually.
3. Being healthy is not about being perfect all the time, it’s about minimizing the frequency and extent of deviation, as much as possible
4. Nutrition is at the centre of good health.  One’s ability to do anything well in the 7 Streams spectrum is largely dependent on one’s nutritional habits.
5. Exercising is an opportunity for valuable 'you' time - it's not a chore.  I used to turn up to training to be with my friends first and foremost and we just happened to exercise when we were together.  We got fit, we were consistent but most of all we had fun.  Make it work for you as exercise will leave you feeling great.  
6. Recovery is going to become one of the biggest growth areas in health and fitness.  Unless people take time out from their quest to be superman/woman they will actually move themselves further and further away from their performance goals.
7. Your attitude and commitment to health is dependent on your environment – at home, work or place of study.
8. Action is your responsibility.  You will always be able to find a good health teacher and this is important, they need to hold your hand to a certain point but then it’s all you!  Change comes from knowledge and consistent action.
9. Making changes to your health habits is actually simple.  Small steps for big rewards. 
10. Great health doesn’t happen overnight.  Leaders, managers, students, athletes spend considerable amounts of time becoming good in their respective roles.  Why should your role of a healthy person be any different?
