#IKEAeverydayrituals At the end of last year, IKEA approached me and asked "we would love to tell your story and connect it to a series where we focus on daily rituals that enrich people's lives, both physically and mentally" I jumped at the chance. What an amazing experience. And - although this is a partnership, with product placement (naturally) - the primary focus was on my story. My mission. My ritual. Plus, all IKEA elements you see are used still by me and my family. Love them The story you hear in the video are all my own words I would really recommend you googling IKEA Rituals to see some of the other stories they tell For those who know/follow me, know that this really is my daily ritual. But for those who are landing on my account for the first time, if you have any questions about plogging, just ask below and i will do my best to answer. Follow my daily ritual of plogging over on Instagram: www.instagram.com/wayeoflife #ikeaeverydayrituals #joggingfortheplanet #jogging #plogging #IKEA #IKEANederland #lifeathomemovement Activate your body with a greater purpose. Plogging is a mix of the English word jogging and the Swedish term “plocka upp”, which means picking up. This green fitness trend was born in Sweden, where people first started to pick up litter while jogging. Get fit and become an environmental hero in your community at the same time.

#plogging #rtl4 #wayeoflife In another episode of 'make it hard on yourself' I decided to go epic for my first appearance on national TV. Yes.. I am finally breaking through into television! I was invited to be a part of the new Dutch TV series www.duurzameroadtrip.nl It is only going to be a 3min slot but so thrilled to be invited. The series is following BNer Robin Leféber as he travels across NL reporting on sustainable projects and initiatives. NederlandSchoon put him in contact with me and we met up at www.papaverdelft.nl (awesome visitor centre in the Delftse Hout) My premiere on Dutch TV will be 16:30 May 6th RTL4 It will also be available on Videoland But.... While most people would make sure they looked their best for the TV.. I decided to cycle the 50km to the location by bike. And of course, picking up trash along the way. Hope you enjoy the video Thanks for watching as always And follow my daily adventures in plogging over on Instagram www.instagram.com/wayeoflife Paul www.wayeoflife.com Brands that help me: www.wayeoflife.com/sponsors

SET A CLEAR BOUNDARY PLOGGING TIPS 'N' TRICKS.. This is my favourite tip.. keep a clear separation between your plogging and running (or walking) This means you don't feel like you have to keep on picking up trash.. A good example is pick up trash during the warm up and then enjoy the run! This means you make an impact, but don't impact your run/training And two things to help For my run segment I often choose places I know that don't have much trash.. it really helps me focus on running And.. if you do spot trash during the run segment then don't pick it up, but remember where it is for next time More on that tip next time! 🤗🤗🤗 #runhappy #runhappyteam #brooksrunhappyteam #tips #tipsntricks #inspiration . #actioncamera #gopro #moreeverything #fitdutchies #plogga #ikloophard #running #runtoinspire #plogging #zwerfafval #zwerfie #hardlopen #plogger

3 WAYS TO PICK UP TRASH WITHOUT GLOVES PLOGGING TIPS 'N' TRICKS.. since the pandemic I have always used gives to pick up trash.. but how can you do that without gloves? Here are three methods to do just that! A leaf A twig/stick A clothes peg! The last one is surprisingly handy.. it is so lightweight and you can clip it to your shorts or shirt I will often use a clothes peg when just going for a walk Picking up a single piece of trash makes a global impact if we all do it. And more importantly.. it has no impact on you. And it's actually fun thinking of ways to pick up that single piece! 🤗🤗🤗

PLOGGING TIPS 'N' TRICKS.. today's advice is for first time ploggers.. and it probably sounds weird, but... I don't want you to pick up much at all! KEEP IT SMALL START WITH JUST A SINGLE PIECE OF TRASH Picking up a single piece of trash makes a global impact if we all do it. And more importantly.. it has no impact on you. Sure, you could pick up a 1000 pieces of trash and that would be amazing. But I would rather have a 1000 people picking up 1 piece of trash And . I would definitely love you to pick up 1 piece on a thousand runs or walks!😍💚💚 That single piece means you are more likely to continue doing it.. and that means there is a bigger chance that people will see you doing it.. suddenly you could be inspiring others! How wonderful would that be? 🤗🤗🤗 You can always do more later on. So.. start small and make a big impact💚🙏 #runhappy #runhappyteam #brooksrunhappyteam #tips #tipsntricks . #actioncamera #gopro #moreeverything #fitdutchies #plogga #ikloophard #running #runtoinspire #plogging #zwerfafval #zwerfie #hardlopen #plogger

Plogging Tips 'n' Tricks.. I've decided to try a new series of advice for people who want to plog for the first time. I'm going to keep the series simple and uncomplicated.. And the first tip is.. THERE ARE NO RULES TO PLOGGING .. just do it your way! Do think you have to do it a certain way. Think what works best for you, and do it. That way you are more likely to keep on doing it.. and that is one of the biggest impacts you can make. #runhappy #runhappyteam #brooksrunhappyteam #tips #tipsntricks . #actioncamera #gopro #moreeverything #fitdutchies #plogga #ikloophard #running #runtoinspire #plogging #zwerfafval #zwerfie #hardlopen #plogger
