Breathe In, Bliss Out

With many of us facing feelings of anxiousness, stress and worry taking some time to sit back and breathe is extremely important for your mental wellbeing. Some of the top ways of doing this include:

• Join the breathe guru, Richie Bostock, for a guided breathework session to help reach maximum levels of bliss. Richie has just launched his Flourish app where you can stream lots of different classes. Check out his Instagram for more https://www.instagram.com/thebreathguy/
• Relax with Gong! One of our most popular sessions at Live Well London, you can now bathe in the sound of the gongs every Wednesday on Instagram with our friends at Gong Stories. https://www.instagram.com/gongstories/
• Fancy some mindful movement? Check out Richie Norton, and his incredible yoga and movement classes. We're loving his Feel Good series on FIIT at the moment - literally the best way to start the day! But if you're not on FIIT then still check out his wonderfully positive and inspiring content over on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/richienorton_/?hl=en

Other Top Tips from the Live Well team

• If you are able to then try and get out for a run/walk around the local area. It can help to keep the mind clear and focused. But remember to be mindful and responsible while out and keep 2m away from others!
• Dancing! Our team have been loving sticking on the tunes and dancing around the kitchen, seriously busting some moves. A great, FUN way to release some energy and boost that mood.
• Getting creative. We're still loving creating exciting content to share with you all but other ways we've been getting creative include colouring, decorating, scrap-booking, and even a little bit of cocktail making!
• Keeping in touch with friends and family. Regular video chats have been keeping us happy, connected and social! Try a little Friday night quiz with friends, or after work drinks with colleagues. 
• And finally, remember to be kind to yourself! If you wake up full of beans and smash out a run, workout and a loaf of banana bread all in one day then that's fab, but remember it's also perfectly OK to lie on the sofa, watching Bridget Jones and eating your Easter eggs early... these are strange times we are in and emotions are bound to be all over the place. So take it easy and do whatever makes YOU feel good.
