GROUND YOURSELF

Step out into your garden or a nearby green space to soothe your mind. Research shows that just being able to see greenery and birds can lower anxiety and stress. ‘Even better, stand barefoot on the grass,’ says yoga teacher and nutritional therapist Ciara Jean Roberts. ‘Known more commonly as “grounding” or “earthing”, this simple technique helps you to draw energy from the earth. It may even help to reduce blood pressure.’
