IN ORDER FOR US TO BE HEALTHY,
WE NEED TO BE POSITIVE, AND IT’S
NOT ALWAYS EASY TO KEEP THAT
MENTALITY. A POSITIVE LIFE IS ALL
ABOUT BALANCE: WHETHER IT’S
EATING A HEALTHY DIET DURING
THE WEEK THEN INDULGING A
LITTLE AT THE WEEKEND, OR
SPENDING TIME WITH FRIENDS,
THEN ENJOYING SOME TIME ALONE
TOO. IT’S REALLY IMPORTANT TO
DO WHAT MAKES YOU HAPPY!

We’re not saying get up at 5am and
run a half marathon every morning,
but simple things such as taking the
stairs instead of the escalator, walking
the long way round or going for a 20
minute jog in the evening can all help.
These little things will make a huge
difference to your general health and
fitness, and help with a positive mind
set too. All we ask is you give it a try!

What you put on your plate is a
much more powerful medicine than
anything at the back of your bathroom
cabinet. You should treat every visit to
your supermarket like a visit to your
pharmacy and buy fresh and whole
grain food. Trying to avoid refined
sugar will benefit your body in more
ways than you can imagine. It’s so
easy to pick the most convenient
option in our frantic lives, but our
health is our wealth, so keeping
a healthy balanced diet is super
important for our wellbeing.

As cheesy as it may sound, laughing
is just as important as a healthy
diet and exercise routine. Laughter
is scientifically proven to release
endorphins, a feel-good brain
chemical. So surround yourself with
the people you love, or put a comedy
on, and allow yourself to relax and
enjoy a little bit of fun. You’ll feel so
much better almost immediately,
we promise.

Allow yourself some time every
evening to wind down. Whether
you’ve had a good or a bad day,
we all need some alone time to do
something we enjoy and take a break
from the world. So we suggest you
put your phone on charge in the
kitchen to avoid temptation and
pour yourself a bath with our Liquid
Yoga Bath Soak. It has essences
of Spearmint, Cypress, Lavender,
Mandarin and Chamomile essential oils
to help ease your stress and anxiety,
plus moisturising Murumuru Butter so
your skin feels as good as your mind.
Take some deep breaths in and out to
steady your heart rate and allow your
mind to just close down for a minute.
Pamper your skin after your bath
with our Activist Oil to nourish and
moisturise, then spray one spritz of
Liquid Yoga Space Spray onto
your pillow to aid your sleep.

Know inside that you are incredibly
special! There’s no one else that is
you, and that is your power. There will
always be something you’ll be better
at than someone else and vice versa,
so realise your strengths and don’t let
anybody ever make you feel less than
amazing, because as long as you’re
kind, you are incredible!
