The Wellness Almanac

Would you like to have more energy? Perhaps you yearn for a better night's sleep? To be able to relax, better able to manage stress and anxiety? Maybe you are looking for simple things to keep your back and joints happy, or to support your digestive system? Whatever wellbeing means to you, among these pages you will find 366 health and wellness tips and techniques to bring ease and balance to mind, body and soul. Tried and tested, these are simple, effective and practical techniques I know bring wellbeing benefits, drawing from my 30 years of yoga practice and personal development in the field of complementary and holistic therapies.

This book has been in my mind for many years. As a copious and diligent collector of all things wellbeing, I was inspired to collate my wisdom during the Covid-19 lockdowns. I have always felt it important to share what I learn, so I decided that one way I could help my yoga students and Facebook followers was by posting a wellbeing tip every day we were locked down - sharing the things I was doing myself to stay well during this time. These tips went down very well. I received many messages of thanks and, more importantly, messages telling me how much the tips were helping people. It was this feedback that provided the push I needed.

Each day I offer you something to try or consider, or a small lifestyle tweak you might be inspired to try out, making a positive difference to you and your world. As a practical person, if something doesn't work, I can't see the point of doing it, so you can be assured the wisdom I share is practical and effective, and more importantly yields many health and wellbeing benefits. My wish is that this book becomes a trusted and encouraging companion as we flow with grace and harmony through the seasons. This is a book to help you through every day.
