Find your inner warrior

Yoga is more than just a physical workout. ‘For example, the Warrior 2 pose is great for building confidence and enhancing your inner strength,’ says Eve. ‘The posture burns off stress hormones while also enabling you to stay present with whatever’s happening at the time – and that’s essential for building resilience. Learning to hold this pose can help to bring strength to your everyday life.’ Search ‘Warrior 2’ on Youtube to get your position right.

Exercises with breath work, like yoga and Pilates, will also improve your mood, relieve tension and promote relaxation. ‘Research shows that just one hour’s yoga boosts levels of relaxing GABA [gamma-aminobutyric acid],’ says Eve. An increase of this chemical messenger in the brain can help relieve anxiety.
