As we dive into the new year, we’re sharing our top tips for living your best life – on your own terms. It’s all about shifting your perspective and focusing on what you have, rather than what you don’t.

Rediscovering Joy in the Little Things

For some, feeling good is about embracing imperfection and taking a break from the constant hustle. Ruby Thompson, Editor, swears by her “R-E-L-A-X” formula, which involves accepting that perfection isn’t the key to happiness.
