✨ Issue 108 is here! ✨

This edition is all about the healing power of nature 🌿 — from Dean Hall’s incredible 185-mile swim to Steve Court’s story of how owning a woodland saved his life, and Louk Lennaerts’ spiritual journey through Bhutan.

I also share my week of mindful detoxing in Austria, the mystery of labyrinths and water healing, and a peek into European sauna culture. Plus, the latest beauty innovations, soulful interviews, and wellness retreats to inspire your next adventure.

🎙️ And we’re so excited to launch our brand-new weekly podcast ‘Well, That’s Awkward’ — with broadcaster Susan Osman and me, two friends on a sofa, mocktails in hand, diving into conversations about health, love, life, and all those slightly taboo topics we usually whisper about!

Gastein Valley: A Different Kind of Ski Trip

So when I was invited to spend several days in Austria’s Gastein Valley, coinciding with my birthday, I expected good snow, fast skiing and probably a few opportunities to find something slightly ridiculous to do on a mountain.
