Wellness, My Way

With me, Willow Crossley...

Curious about what wellness really means to people, we’re on a mission to uncover how small and seismic wellness shifts can really change our everyday lives - from attitudes to rituals, products to mindsets, treatments to movements, we’ll cover it all with some (not)guilty pleasures thrown in for good measure. Because wellness isn’t a fad, it’s a commitment to yourself, and to feeling healthier and happier for life.

Here my team asked me to spill the (healthy) beans on my approach to wellness...

What does wellness mean to you?
It means feeling energised, pain-free, calm and focused with clear skin.

How do you approach wellness? 
I used to take being healthy and feeling well completely for granted. Ive always been very active and that seemed to pretty much keep everything working. Although, during the past six months, Im beginning to feel it’s not enough. There are things that I definitely can't live without; A daily walk. Eating well; not too much sugar, not too much alcohol - I cant tolerate much at all lots of veg, go to bed at a time that will (hopefully) give me seven hours sleep and not too much screen time. I've found myself spending more time at a computer in the last couple of years and consciously making myself leave my phone upstairs in the evening so I'm not attached to my phone. Ive got a slipped disk.
