What’s a better way to start the New Year than with ten well-proven wellness tips from one of the most long-standing spa leaders in the industry?

Heidi Grimwood, recently named Global Spa Leader of the Year 2022 at the World Spa and Wellness Awards, talks about how she maintains a healthy balance between her personal and professional life by focusing on and putting into practice a few basic principles.

I feel blessed to share some helpful and yet simple wellness tips that I personally follow in my daily routine to maintain my health, fitness, and happiness,” states the Vice President of ELE|NA,

Wellness is state of the art; if we listen to our body, it’s pretty simple.

Breathe; without proper breathing, it will be impossible to maintain body equilibrium. We must breathe from the diaphragm to create better mental and physical wellness. When you feel stressed or anxious, please take a moment to feel where your

breath is; often, during these times, our breath is in our chest, and our shoulders are tense. Reset this by taking deeper breaths, feeling your breath reach your stomach, sitting straight, rolling your shoulders back and down, and feeling your body instantly calm after just a few breaths.

Exercise; doesn’t always need to include a trip to the gym. Move your body and be active. Gardening, housekeeping, and taking the stairs rather than the elevator are all examples of exercises. Parking your car further away from the shop entrance and walking across the car park add to your daily steps.

Feed your body; allow nutrition to serve as both medicine and food. According to Hippocrates, nutrition is essential since we are what we eat. Although you don’t have to give up all treats, be careful when and what you offer your body.

Listen to your body and not your emotional mind; try reconnecting with your intuitive mind, and you will be led in the right direction.

Enjoy wellness and spa services; the next time you visit a spa, ask the therapist to offer the best treatment based on how you feel that day rather than just selecting a standard massage. You can do this to restore your equilibrium and enhance the effects of your spa day.

Try a digital detox once a week; arrange a family day out; ask them to leave their phones at home and watch what happens—where you go, what you speak about, whether you sleep better that night—when you don’t use any electronic gadgets.

Sleep is crucial, as is rest. Rest your body and obtain a good night’s sleep so that your body can restore itself. Your body can only heal when it is relaxing, and sleep is a healer. Often my mind is too busy when I go to bed, so I use sleep hypnosis via YouTube, which helps me get more profound sleep.

Practice meditation; to help your body and mind unwind. Meditating for even one minute in the middle of your workday can aid mental wellness. Many people who know me know I am not the best at meditating in the traditional sense, but I have created my style of meditation by snorkelling or walking through the mountains. It allows me to be in the present because I have to focus and enjoy the here and now, so for me, that is my meditation.

Spend time with family and friends; This tip can help you keep your mental health in good shape for the long term by making sure you build and keep strong relationships with your loved ones. Take time for the people who mean something in your life; it will enlighten their day and give you a sense of fulfilment.

Maintaining proper hydration; is essential yet sometimes disregarded as a health indicator. Maintaining enough blood volume and good physiological function are made possible by being hydrated. The best way to stay hydrated is to drink water with no calories, sugar, or chemicals. Try to drink water from a copper bottle or cup to ensure the water is more alkaline. Many bottles of water plastic bottles can have more acid.

Although there isn’t a fixed amount that everyone requires each day, try to drink enough to quench your thirst adequately. If you are thirsty, you are already dehydrated.

Be kind – enough said.
