While getting a ‘bikini body’ should literally just involve putting body in a bikini, many want to do more exercise for simple health benefits, a boost of fell-good endorphins and even the chance to broaden their social circles and make some more friends. There’s no shortage of great, inventive classes in London and here are a few of the best.
Muay Thai at One Ldn

We all seek a fountain of youth, and the number of products available that promise to be ‘anti-aging’ can seem overwhelming, so where do you start?

While it seems common ‘fact’ that you simply should never drink coffee in the evening if you want to get to sleep, new research suggests that the effect of coffee on your sleep schedule may purely be dependent on whether you’re an early riser or not. A study reported in Scientific American and tested on Stanford University college students, saw that ‘morning people’ who drank coffee throughout the day were more likely to wake up in the middle sleep than their late rival counterparts.
So what should you do if you want to brew up? Try to cut your coffee consumption before 2pm, or for those easily affected by stimulants, finish your intake just after lunch to avoid a restless night’s sleep.
We’ve all been there, you’ve escaped the office and are on your way to the destination of your dreams, or just somewhere sunny and with a beach and you’re flight is delayed. Or you miss a connection. Or something else out of your control happens.
It’s all too common, and most of the time all you lose out on is a few hours. But stress levels will inevitably go through the roof and arguments will probably start to occur.
It can really have an impact on the enjoyment of the whole trip. So stop it.
Taking a moment to breathe slowly, think about things logically and going to distract yourself with a nice meal or nice drink can really help make your journey and holiday that much better.
Stop the worry and stop the stress, take stock and calm yourself. It really could almost always be far worse. After all, you’re on holiday aren’t you!
