Dear
Reader,
|
|
Hopefully you’ve snagged an
extra hour in bed as the clocks went back
last night. Curiously
this week, our site was deluged with hundreds of thousands of
people searching for this – and I wondered why. Well,
apparently the change will affect our skin (see here for why). For me, the chance to grab any more time
in bed is a glorious gift, although it doesn’t
mean I’m getting more sleep (boo). I’m one of the millions of us whose
shut-eye is sometimes less than satisfactory. In fact, I’m
starting to fantasise about a
wellness break in Thailand
– to disconnect, to recentre, to be surrounded by frangipani and
bougainvillea and to stuff as much lemongrass into my system as
possible. One to dream about perhaps.

|
Have a great week.

WHAT’S EXCITING ME THIS WEEK

All
Hallow’s Eve
|
|
In the past few years, we’ve come over all
American when it comes to Halloween:
whole villages, houses, streets are given over to monstrous
makeovers. But why do we
celebrate it in the first place?

We’re a society driven by trends – and this
week, we’re diving into food and what we can see on our plates in 2025. Expect food as medicine to take centre stage
as we fight to combat our obesity problem (without, ideally, heading
down the Ozempic route).

Improve
Your WFH Productivity

I’m usually at my kitchen table; the lighting
is bad and the fridge within reach. Luckily, Martha Davies has some
ideas on how to level up your home
workspace – I sure do need
them.
