Director of The Relauncher, an online destination for natural beauty, health, wellness & lifestyle, Alison Morgan lives in Sydney with her husband & 2 boys. Living and breathing une vie active (an active life), Alison loves being active and outdoors. We sit down with her for a virtual cup-of-tea and a chat about how she lives an active and healthy life.

What’s your favourite way to stay fit? I change this around depending on the seasons and how I’m feeling. At the moment it’s all about yoga. I’m loving power yoga at Body Mind Life in Surry Hills.
What’s your style like when you’re working out and hanging out? I like to wear stylish active wear as I tend to wear it on a daily basis. I love knee length tights (really tight ones!), bright sports bras with tanks over the top. I also love a good jacket too.
What’s your style like when you’re going out? It depends where I’m going. I love to dress jeans up with heels and a shirt, and I also love a short skirt too. I’m a sucker for accessories – it really makes an outfit!
What are your makeup must-haves?
I don’t wear too much makeup. When I do, it’s always natural. I love Jane Iredale’s liquid minerals foundation, lip fixation & her lip liners. I also love Earth Lab eyeliner & mascara. I love them all so much that I sell them in my online store.
The book on your bedside table right now: Busted! There is no book at the moment, mainly because I’m really busy with work at the moment so I’m not reading a novel. The magazines beside my bed are MindFood, Cosmo, Prevention and Womens Health.
Can you share a typical workout? I walk the kids to school, when I get home I grab my bike and ride to Surry Hills for a 1 1/2hr power yoga session. I then ride home and get stuck into work.
What does living an active life mean to you? Everything. I've always been active. Without exervise, I can feel my mood, motivation and enthusiasm start top dip. I exercise most days and move around a lot. Where I can, I ride or walk over driving.
