Insider Wellness in the time of Corona

Insider Wellness in the time of Corona

Its April! You’re not fooling anyone anymore into believing that taking out the rubbish counts as exercise. Elena Panayides recommends how this solitary yet global experience can be spent uncovering inventive ways to secure your Wellness goals.

Beyond our social-distanced, permission code 6, walking, running and cycling there are plenty of ways to continue toning and tightening our bodies for when we break free and put them on display again. It might not just ward off the virus but also boost energy and happiness-inducing serotonin levels.
