February Health and Wellness Awareness

So I wanted to start a new series 'Health and Wellness Awareness' within my blog for two reasons;
  1. It will keep me accountable – I will have no excuse but to keep exploring and discovering new things
  2. I love to share these things I find with people
I am always on a journey with health and wellness; I love learning and discovering new books, documentaries and things along those lines. I want to be able to share with you each month a few of my new favourites which I have come across.
Headspace - This is such a nifty little app for those interested and wanting to learn how to meditate. All you need is 10 minutes, it is best to pick a time you can stick to every day and the app will do the rest for you. Personally I really enjoy the voice of Andy and the laid back approach. It really helped me to stop over thinking it and to just sit back and do… It really is meditation made simple.


Melissa Ambrosini Show - These are podcasts by the author of ‘Mastering your Mean Girl’. Melissa is a bit of a ‘self-help guru’ with a series of Health, Wealth and Love interview style podcasts. I love the variety and listening to other peoples thoughts and ideals. These interviews feel really natural and genuine with content that helps spark your own thoughts. I enjoy listening to this whilst I do mindless tasks like cleaning the house; I find the content very uplifting.
 


I hope you enjoyed this post, please let me know if you have discovered any new health and wellness books, podcasts or apps… anything really that helps you grow and challenge yourself. I would love to hear about it.

    Such a good idea! I use my FitBit to motivate me to exercise. It's a great tool :)

    I love health and wellness posts. I started meditating late last year and like you used the Headspace app. I've found a new one recently called insight timer and you can pick meditations based on subjects - I've been using different sleep ones every night and it's amazing how much better I have been sleeping.
