Alastair's 3 tips for wellness
Free, easy to access and rewarding
Explore nature
Explore nature that is nearby to you, within two minutes or two miles of your house there will be a tree, a scrap of woodland to breath deep and escape.
Get pumped
Get your heart pumping and moving. You could do 20 jumping jacks or 20 press ups. Do that every morning when you get out of bed instead of checking Instagram.
Find your purpose
Find your purpose. Contributing to something bigger than you, try to leave the world in a better place than you found it.
