HEALTHY LIVING

Holistic Health is actually an approach to life.

This ancient approach to health takes a step back from focusing on specific ailments or body parts and looks at the bigger picture—you as a whole, vibrant individual and how you connect with the world around you. It’s all about the harmony between mind, body, and spirit, working together to create balance and well-being.

Lifestyle = Your way of life.

Your life is a beautifully interconnected web—your daily routine, job, diet, exercise, and countless other factors all play a role in shaping your health and well-being. In Chinese Medicine, finding harmony is key. It’s all about striking the perfect balance between work, rest, and play to keep your body and mind in sync.

The Body-Energy Clock

Your body follows a 24-hour energy cycle, with energy naturally rising and falling through different parts of your system. This rhythm, known as the Body-Energy Clock, helps explain why certain times of the day feel more energised or relaxed—it’s all part of your body’s natural flow.

Simple Lifestyle Tips for a Healthier, Happier You

Looking after yourself doesn’t have to be complicated—small, mindful changes can make a world of difference. Here are some easy ways to prioritise your health:

  • Get your beauty sleep: The old saying “Early to bed, early to rise makes a person healthy, wealthy, and wise” still rings true. Rest is essential—burning the candle at both ends only wears down your body and stresses vital organs, leaving the door open to illness.

  • Move your body daily: Whether it’s a brisk walk, yoga, or dancing in your kitchen, make time to move every day.

  • Eat smart: Stick to fresh, natural foods where possible, and aim for a light supper. Cut back on stimulants—they may perk you up short-term but can wreak havoc on your energy in the long run.

  • Stay hydrated: Your body needs water to function at its best, so drink up!

  • Manage stress: With 70% of health problems linked to stress, it’s worth taking the time to breathe, unwind, and keep it in check.

  • Take time out for YOU: Whether it’s relaxing, pursuing a hobby, or pampering yourself with a soothing treatment, make space for things that bring you joy.

  • Choose happiness: Every day, make a conscious effort to focus on the good—it’s a simple but powerful way to boost your well-being.

And remember, prevention is always better than cure. Look after yourself today, and your future self will thank you. 💖
