Let’s face it: despite our best efforts, we all have times where our stress gets the better of us. But this can impact your mental and physical health in more ways than you may realise.

Embracing down time

Written by popular wellness entrepreneur and business coach Fab Giovanetti, Reclaim Your Time Off is a practical toolkit for thriving in the modern working environment. In the current landscape, we work extremely hard – over 60 hours per week, on average. ‘Burnout’ is a ubiquitous buzzword and being overly ‘busy’ is seen as a badge of honour.

This book uncovers how this busyness can impact negatively on creativity, and addresses how we, as a society, need to relearn the art of being bored. Down time is an essential part of productivity and a vital component of good health and wellbeing – this book shows us how to protect it. Published 11th May 2021 by Wat kins Publishing. £10.99, available from Waterstones, Hive, Foyles, Amazon UK and Watkins Publishing.

Stress soothers

You’ve probably heard that CBD can help you to relax, unwind and find your inner calm – in fact, some CBD users report feeling like a weight has lifted off their shoulders. So how does it work? CBD interacts with numerous receptors in the brain and body to bring about feelings of calm and contentment.

With CBD available in various forms, you can benefit from the soothing relief of a CBD bath bomb to soak away a stressful day, or use CBD oil for a more all-round effect. Making your wellbeing a priority, CBD Connect has a variety of quality CBD products to suit your individual needs. Visit thecbdconnect.co.uk

Plant-based nutrients

Studies show that lack of sleep and high cortisol levels associated with stress and anxiety impact our health and immune system. Unbeelievable health’s Bee calm wellbeing support and Bee rested sleep supplements are formulated by nutritionists, and combine the highest quality plant-based nutrients. They’re shown to help ease tension, agitation and low moods while also improving your sleep, helping you to nod off, get up less in the night and sleep for longer.

Bee calm and Bee rested supplements are concentrated, so fewer capsules are required. They can be taken together if desired as they contain different ingredients and may be opened into juices and more. Find them in UK health stores including Holland & Barrett and globally online via Bodykind.

Your meditation guide

Sitting Comfortably by Swami Saradananda is a guide to setting up a long-term, healthy and enjoyable meditation practice. This is the only book offering a comprehensive approach to the preparation for sitting meditation without aches and pains.

Sitting Comfortably explores the physical issues that may arise while sitting, from painful knees to tight hamstrings. Swami Saradananda shows how yoga preparation, breathing and adapting postures can help to strengthen the body to be able to maintain a sitting meditation. She invites us to understand how the mind can easily be distracted, like a puppy, and that physical discomfort can often be this distraction in disguise. It will be an invaluable reference guide for students of mindfulness, yoga, Buddhism, as well as New Age traditions. Published 8th June, 2021. £15.99, available at Waterstones, Hive, Amazon UK and Foyles.
