The Ultimate Guide to Wellness: Tips from Leading Experts

May is Mental Health Awareness Month, a time to highlight the importance of taking care of our mental and emotional well-being. With busy schedules, never-ending to-do lists, and the pressures of everyday life, it can be easy to neglect our own self-care. That's why we've reached out to experts from different industries and backgrounds to share their top tips on how to prioritise self-care and maintain a healthy mind and body. From small habits to bigger lifestyle changes, these experts offer practical advice and insights to help you prioritise your own well-being.

ELLYA SAM - FITNESS EXPERT

"Book in your classes in advance. This not only allows you to look forward to it but also gives you the perfect push to just do it!"

"Get outside. As the weather gets sunnier, I recommend going outside, breathing the fresh air and taking yourself on a 30 min walk. This gets the heart rate up and keeps the body moving when you’re between meetings or calls."

"What always helps me is making and eating a yummy and nutritious breakfast. It might seem like something difficult to do in the workday morning, but I get up early to prepare a lovely breakfast to help kick-start my day. Avocado toast with roasted tomatoes is my fave!"

"Dancing always makes me happy. I often like to cook and dance, so between frying up and sizzling, I do a move and groove."

DR EMILY LEEMING- NUTRITION SCIENTIST AND REGISTERED DIETITIAN

“Your gut bacteria influence your health across your body - from your appetite, mood, to your metabolism. One of the best ways to support your gut microbiome is by eating at least 30 different plants a week which is linked to a more diverse microbiome. Don’t think of plant foods as only fruits and vegetables, but also whole grains, beans and legumes, nuts and seeds, herbs and spices.”

“Getting a great night's sleep is hugely important to help your body be at its best, even going to bed half an hour earlier than usual can help. Sleeping badly can make your blood sugar levels go haywire the next day, making you feel even more tired, hungry and more likely to reach for food choices that aren’t so great for us.”

SJANA ELISE - YOGA AND WELLNESS EXPERT

"I find for me personally, that consciously creating or carving out time and schedule that time into my days as a PRIORITY, is what has really helped for me. These can be everything from planning my day the night before, to ensuring that my basic "keys to living" are in check - i.e. Breath, Sleep, Water, Food, Connection, and Purpose.
"Movement! Movement always has been and probably always will be my medicine I think! It has such a huge impact on my holistic health and wellbeing and therefore my confidence also. There is nothing more beautiful than a woman who is feeling confident because she knows she is doing things for herself that makes her FEEL GOOD.
Having a good support system and surrounding myself with other empowered, confident women subconsciously gives me permission to do the same and to show up as MY most authentic self. I find that when I am embodying that sort of frequency and vibrating high, it's almost inevitable that I will feel more confident and empowered myself!"

SAKINA DI PACE- WELLNESS & FACIAL CUPPING EXPERT

"The traditional Chinese medicine perspective on natural beauty is that if you’re physically healthy and emotionally balanced, then your skin will also be healthy. Facial cupping, acupressure, gua sha, and facial yoga are all part of embracing ageing in a healthy way. They move the face’s stagnant energy, blood, and lymph, which helps us radiate and glow."
