How to stay relaxed and healthy on the cheap

GET PAMPERING

Try an at-home facial. Beauty Director Sarah Cooper-white, says, ‘Start with thoroughly cleansed skin – a balm cleanser removed with a flannel or muslin cloth will gently exfoliate. Plump up fine lines and leave a smooth base for make-up with a sheet mask. Then, once you remove it, massage in the excess, working up from the jaw in sweeping movements to leave skin glowing.’

CUT YOUR STRESS LEVELS

Many of us are feeling the strain right now, so why not see if meditating helps you switch off? There’s information on how to meditate online, such as at headspace. com; plus you can sign up for a free 14-day trial to try out its guided meditations.**

WORK OUT FOR LESS

We all know the benefits exercise can have, but you don’t have to spend a fortune joining a gym. If you’re into running, try Nike’s Run Club app (nike.com/gb/nrc-app), which lets you set goals and join challenges. And if yoga’s your thing, Youtube has plenty of videos.
