Nutritional therapist and functional medicine practitioner Tracy Tredoux suggests ways to start the new year as you mean to go on

A new year in the capital: start with healthy habits

New year in the capital is full of energy, promise and the chance to start fresh. Instead of tackling grand resolutions, Tracy Tredoux suggests shifting your mindset to sustainable, realistic habits that build health naturally. Here are her top tips for embracing a healthier lifestyle that's full of energy, balance, and joy.

Breathe fresh air daily

As London buzzes back to life after the holidays, try incorporating daily walks in your favourite park or along the Thames. Fresh air and natural light have been shown to reduce stress, improve sleep and elevate mood. Bundle up, grab a coffee or herbal tea and let your mind unwind amid nature's quiet spaces. Even a 15-minute walk has tremendous benefits.
