Basics 7: Fit and Well without the Gym

1. Walk. One tube stop earlier. To the corner shop. To the tram. At lunch-time. Don't think of it as slower than driving, think of it as the best wellness (mind and body) activity that exists.
2. Climb. Stairs rather than elevators or escalators.  Quicker, more flexible and heart strengthening, stress reducing.
3. Down time. Not slump on the sofa time. Time reflecting, time staring at the horizon. Time isolated from noise, the digital interrupt and 24/7 false news.
4. The Daily Journal. For perspective, for insight and for budget therapy.
5. Food.  More real. More green. More variety. More cooked from scratch. More local. 
6. Play. Ball. Juggle. Hoop. Five-a-side.
7. Sleep. Quality times quantity.
