Meditation, it’s better than sitting around doing nothing. It’s also good for you physically, including boosting your immune system. When we are stressed and anxious, hormones cortisol and adrenaline are pumped too quickly through our bodies. If this happens too often, our adrenal glands become exhausted and this damages our immune system.

In these uncertain and frightening times, it’s so comforting to be reminded that there is still good in this World.

Most of us who exercise outside now, are probably all too familiar with our route. I’m incredibly lucky to live in the beautiful village of Lavenham in Suffolk.

As we start another week in lockdown, some of you will be craving some personal space right now. Others may be desperate for the opposite, these are of course, unusual times and our psyche is being tested!

When we are faced with something that is out of our control, we humans can feel vulnerable and insecure.

As we continue living this somewhat different life, it seems everyone is experiencing things differently.

In places like Tibet and Bhutan, I can’t help admiring the simplicity of their lifestyles. How their faith keeps them strong, and their outlook on life allows them to find peace, happiness and acceptance.

Every day when I go for my walk, I plug into my AirPods and fill my head with music. Yesterday, I listened to my eldest son Alex’s latest mix, which just made me feel so much better!

So many of us will be missing seeing our families and friends this weekend, me included.

There isn’t a person on this planet who hasn’t had a bad day. Some have bad weeks and some fight every day to wade through depression, anxiety and emotional pain.

This beautiful photo taken by @elialocardi is Bhutan. Nestled deep in the Himalayas, it is the only Kingdom in the World that has a Ministry of Happiness. Since 2016, it has been ranked the most peaceful, least corrupt, and first in economic freedom and ease in doing business in South Asia.
