Well, Well, Well

2009 Health and Wellness Guide, Part 2

Drinking strawberry daiquiris on the beach doesn’t count as a fitness plan. Ingest some tips to help you keep on form this summer.

Lighten Up
Become an urban peddler with a Strida bike (Velorution, 18 Great Titchfield Street, W1W 8BD; 020 7637 4004), then stretch muscles in a yoga-for-cyclists class at Frame (29 New Inn Yard, EC2A 3EY; 020 7033 1855). Disco queens can work on their moves at a House Music or Diva dance lesson.

Get Some Peace of Mind
Charlie Cannon at The Wu Wei Group teaches chi gung — an ancient Chinese form of movement meditation — in your home or outdoors. Alternatively, head to Alchemy (Unit 101, Stables Market, Chalk Farm Road, NW1 8AH; 020 7267 6188) for holistic massage, healing and colourwork.

It’s What’s Inside That Counts
Get out what you put into your body: Brown Sugar to Your Door chef Christophe Reissfelder prepares delicious and nutritious meals using fresh veg, fruit and herbs. Feast on Conscious Food power snacks or, for a serious cleanse, survive the Nosh Detox juice fast.

And drink to your good health.
