“Of course there is no formula for success, except perhaps an unconditional acceptance of life, and what it brings.” Arthur Rubinstein
At different times in life, we experience anxiety. Often this expresses itself as ruminating over things we can’t control. It can be helpful during these times to take a step back and practice unconditional acceptance. There are some things we can control and others that we cannot. The more that we can accept the latter and treat both the bad and good as serving a purpose in our lives, the easier it will be to emotionally detach from expected outcomes and meet challenges from a position of strength.

‘Waste not, want not’, the saying goes. However, according to Gail’s Bakery, the UK throws away around 24 million slices of bread every day, which has inspired their commitment to #WASTENOT and their ‘Waste Not’ menu, made from ingredients that would usually be thrown away.
To become more waste savvy at home, try keeping an inventory of the food you throw out during the week. You can use this list to better plan your next shop and think of creative ways to use off-cuts – for example, making stocks out of the fading herbs and veggies, or breadcrumbs out of stale loaves of bread.

Your night-time routine is critical to ensuring a restful sleep. As you sip on your hot chocolate, identify one thing you can do regularly to promote better sleep.
