4 Give yourself a nourishing present: Rushing around to get last-minute presents and meeting up with and entertaining friends are all part of the silly season, but despite the excitement and fun, it can leave you depleted

and exhausted. In particular, raising a festive glass or two will deplete your blood levels of B-group vitamins and potassium, leaving you with little energy or mental focus. Treat yourself to a high multivitamin, mineral and herbal tonic – a liquid is easier to swallow than a tablet or capsule for many people.

Go Vita loves … Hivita Multivitamin Minerals & Herbs , a vegan-friendly blend of vitamins A, B-group, C and D3 to support vitality and stamina and encourage a healthy stress response in the body, as well as important minerals, including nerve-soothing magnesium, and herbs to boost immune and nervous system function. They also have a children’s version of this product, which is a great idea – keep a bottle handy for littlies who are exhausted towards the end of school term, and slip it into their juice or gummies. 6 Stay Hydrated with herbal boosts. The festive frenzy, combined with the consumption of salty foods and alcoholic drinks, can easily lead to dehydration, leaving you feeling tired, having a headache or even dry skin. Staying hydrated isn't just about drinking water; infuse your hydration routine with herbal teas like peppermint, chamomile, or ginger. Not only do these teas keep you hydrated, but they also offer a host of health benefits from aiding digestion to reducing inflammation and providing a calming effect. Keep a thermos of your favorite herbal blend with you, and sip throughout the day. Your body will thank you for the extra boost of hydration and the added therapeutic benefits of herbs. Go Vita loves … Organic India Teas , a curated selection of pure, aromatic, and beneficial herbal teas that cater to different needs, ensuring you're well- equipped to handle the demands of the holiday season. Whether it's the digestive boost of peppermint or the soothing qualities of chamomile, there's a blend to keep you refreshed and revitalised.

5 Look for LEADS: This acronym stands for “Laugh, Eat, Activity, Discuss, Sleep”. Each of these words has the potential to act as a circuit-breaker. Use them to help you defuse the impact of stressful events and toxic people, and instead approach

them with a relaxed and open mindset. Hopefully, LEADS will help
