Witnessing Coachella this year hit different, watching it unfold on my feed triggered something beyond the usual FOMO. It made me think about how genuinely out of touch with reality social media has become. I found myself less envious of the festival itself and more struck by a bigger question: how far has the world I see on my screen drifted from the one I actually live in?

For me, Sunday evening is not about forcing myself to be overly productive, but about creating a soft and intentional transition into the new week.

Wellness is no longer defined by extremes or trends. It’s becoming quieter, more intentional rooted in daily rituals that support how you want to feel, not just how you want to look.

There are teachers who change the way you move, and then there are the rare ones who change the way you see. I met Chris Fox at The Yoga Barn in Ubud, during a season of my life when Bali was home. I walked into one of his mobility classes not knowing what to expect, and I left unable to explain exactly what had happened. Only that something had shifted.

Somewhere along the way, we forgot how to do nothing. In Italy, there’s a phrase for this: dolce far niente, the sweetness of doing nothing. It’s not laziness. It’s not indulgence. It’s an art form. And it might be exactly what we need.

In a world that never stops scrolling, updating and notifying, there’s a quiet rebellion taking place. It’s called JOMO. The “Joy of Missing Out”, and it’s less about disconnecting entirely and more about reconnecting with what actually matters.

Perhaps one of the most repeated quotes on the internet, symbolising an era of awakening. A collective agreement to one's power, a quote that reminds us of a truth we all seem to understand, yet often forget.

To be well spoken is not to perform, but to connect. It is the ability to express a thought with clarity and ease, without making the listener work to understand you.

Balance is everything. When it comes to health, the last thing you want is to spiral into obsession. The point is not to overhaul your entire life overnight but to become aware, and to make thoughtful swaps little by little.

What is interesting is that the body does not really understand the difference between modern busyness and actual danger. To the nervous system, constant stimulation can feel like a signal that something is wrong.

After six to eight hours of sleep, we wake up dehydrated, sensitive and hormonally alert. Digestion is slow but open. The nervous system is still deciding whether the day feels calm or chaotic. What you choose to consume first becomes a signal, even if you are not consciously thinking about it.

How many of us have left a wellness retreat or a spa day, holding on to that feeling of bliss, trying to make it last forever? And how many of us have lost it by, oh, Tuesday? 

We sip lemon water and feel like we've pressed a reset button, but is it actually healthy in the long run? How many more fads do we need to fall for before we realise that nutrition isn't something secondary or something to casually experiment with?

Energy shows up in posture, in the tightness of the jaw, in how quickly irritation appears and in the strange inability to rest even when there is time. The need to cleanse it, is often just the need to pause.

I recently needed a course of antibiotics, and I’ll admit it: I hesitated. As someone who prioritises gut health, my first thought was my microbiome. Was this going to undo years of careful eating, fermented foods, and probiotics? Was I facing a total reset? 

Form matters. Game changer adjustments to see progress in your pilates practice.

Long before wellness became globalised, herbs were already travelling quietly through cultures, carried in memory, in trade, in migration and in kitchens that adapted to new climates.

Here is your guide to mastering the art of arrival, transforming the plane from a necessary evil into your own private wellness studio.

“Our approach is inclusive, contemporary, and rehab-focused Pilates. In fact, classes are private or semi-private (up to four people), which allows us to deliver a premium service tailored to beginners, individuals recovering from injury, and pre- and post-natal clients."

Welcome to the world of tapping, officially known as Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), a practice that moved from alternative therapy circles into the mainstream, backed by studies showing it can do everything from quieting anxiety to reducing chronic pain.
