24.01.2022 On the eleventh day of Christmas, Myhealth said to me... Don’t Give Yourself A Christmas Stuffing! Christmas is all about getting together with loved ones to eat, drink and be merry. On this day we tend to enjoy the Christmas feast that has been made for us, but the next day everyone feels the aftermath of overeating; bloated and exhausted with a slight bit of guilt. ... This Christmas be aware of choosing healthier options, avoid snacking on the Christmas chocolates, watch your portion sizes and as tempting as the last slice of cake can be, leave it alone.

24.01.2022 On the tenth day of Christmas, Myhealth said to me... Take Time for Yourself! Stress and anxiety can be a burden on your health so take some time to check-in with yourself.

Having a regular doctor ensures a comprehensive understanding of your current health and family history and work towards preventative care.

08.01.2022 Have you ever heard of brain or cognitive training? As we get older, we tend to use our brains less as everyday tasks become familiar and we fall into a thoughtless routine.

03.01.2022 #WeRememberThem In Flanders fields In Flanders fields the poppies blow... Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place: and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders fields. Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields. John McCrae (18721918)

02.01.2022 On the twelfth day of Christmas, Myhealth said to me... Smile, Even If We Can't See It! This is a time to enjoy yourself, smile, be happy and spend time doing the things you want to do. But it is also important to remember that while we are enjoying ourselves and socialising, we need to continue being COVID safe. Try organising an outdoor venue for larger groups where you can stay 1.5m from people you don't live with regularly and maintain good hygiene practices like washing... or sanitizing your hands between tasks. And if you start to feel unwell or develop symptoms, pop on a mask, go get tested and seek further medical advice from your GP. Santa and his troops will be doing their bit to keep us all safe too! - Myhealth
