Staying Well Over Lockdown

Practice Manager Kellie Lloyd offers her best advice for staying well and calm throughout Lockdown.

Support your mind and set aside some time to focus on you. Focus on the positives, light some candles, exercise and even meditate. Sit quietly and focus on your breathing. Take some time out to go for a walk and fill your Lungs with fresh air.

FOOD AND MOOD

Explore new healthy and nourishing foods to help boost your mood. Use the New Year to help you focus on new beginnings with your diet. Science shows us that healthy eating doesn't only benefit our physical health but also our mental health. It gives us some much needed energy and nourish your brain to function better.

Staying hydrated is also vital for the body. Not only will it help you think more clearly it also helps to hydrate and plump the skin.  It is recommended that you drink 8 glasses of water a day for optimum hydration. Eating foods rich in omegas such as oily fish, nuts and seeds will help to maintain the moisture levels and plumpness of the skin.

Skin Omegas by Advanced Nutrition Programme £29 is a high strength and very pure supplement that acts as a super skin boost of hydration for the skin and can be taken daily for optimum hydration.

Getting your 5 portions of fruit and vegetables a day will help provide essential vitamins and minerals to help boost your immune System as well as helping to prevent the signs of ageing on the skin by acting as an antioxidant inside the body. If you want an extra boost to your system to help provide more immunity then the new ANP Immunity Intelligence pack £63 is just what you need. This pack is designed to support the immune system on a daily basis as well as overall wellbeing and helps to reduce tiredness and fatigue. This pack contains 5 supplements which you take daily and amongst other ingredients they  contain vitamin A, b6, C, D, folate, iron and zinc as well as colostrum to raise the antibodies in the body.

A healthy stomach is super important and can effect amongst other things how we feel emotionally. For your digestion to maintain optimum health you need to have plenty of fibre in your diet as well as lots of fluids.  Healthy foods include fruit and vegetables,  wholegrains, live yoghurt and probiotics. ANP have just launched a new supplement called Skin Clear Biome £55, this supplement provides specially formulated and micro encapsulated good bacteria to help clear the skin of imperfections and irritation on the surface of the skin.

LOOK AFTER YOUR SKIN

Taking care of your skin has huge benefits for our mental health. Get your skin routine in place so that your skin is not forgotten about. Have a hot bath, cleanse and apply a face mask such as a regenerating Tri Biobotanical Revival Masque by Environ £54 which has previously been described as a “face lift in a jar”. It assists in helping the overall look of the skin and is a firm favourite with our team at The Hogarth Medispa. Finish off with a moisturiser and a good choice is one that contains ingredients such as vitamin A like our Night Time Repair by Circadia £60. This will help keep you going until your next facial!
