A wellness routine is a great way to support your mental and physical health. Following some simple lifestyle tips can have a huge impact on your wellbeing.
We’ve put together a guide to how we’ll be spending this Wellness Wednesday.
Our Steps To Wellness
1. Get Some Sleep
If you find yourself dreaming of a nap all day, you’re probably not getting enough sleep. Studies have shown that sleep deprivation can increase our risk of heart disease, obesity and diabetes.

Staying away from caffeine can help to restore our sleeping patterns. Implementing an evening routine is great too, so try to get into bed at the same time each night and put your phone away long before you try to sleep.
2. Exercise Outside
