A guided meditation for Self-care

In this first full episode, we look at why we crave hot and hearty soups and stews over salads, how alcohol affects our energy levels, and how to create guilt-free comfort foods that truly hit the spot using mindfulness. Each episode we move around the 'Wheel of Wellfulness' to take a holistic look at wellness in each area of our lives - food and eating, then body and movement, then space, ritual and routine, and finally mind, before we begin to move around the wheel again looking at different topics within the same elements or areas of our lives. This episode, we begin with the first segment within the wheel; food and eating.

1: Eating for energy in winter

Introducing the new podcast 'Wellfulness', plus a timely and magical lifehack that comes around but once a year to claim a whole extra hour in your day in which to cultivate a new wellness practice, find more space in your schedule, or to simply indulge in your favorite pastime, say, watching re-runs of Greys Anatomy in bed, with a mug of steaming herbal tea, just for example...

This is Wellfulness

In today’s modern and information filled world, there are so many ideas, experts and studies out there, it’s often difficult to know which wellness practices are right for us – vegan or alcohol free? Yoga or HIIT? Hygge or forest bathing? Swedish death cleaning or the Konmari Method? In trying to create more wellness in our lives to combat the stresses on our to-do list, it’s all too easy to find ourselves with a to-do list around being healthy that’s impossible to finish, often contradictory, and ultimately inauthentic to who we are and what we need. This is Wellfulness, a podcast hosted by Ali Roff Farrar (http://www.aliroff.com), Wellness Director at Psychologies Magazine, based on her book 'The Wellfulness Project (https://www.amazon.co.uk/Wellfulness-Project-Ali-Roff/dp/1783253215/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1571911308&sr=1-1)'. Embark on journey of mindful awareness with Ali and her husband James Farrar, to help you create a more authentic relationship with wellness in your life, and find the practices and habits that suit your unique needs in head, heart and body. "We’ll be bringing you interesting research, new ideas, expert advice, and expertise from our professional background’s, with Ali as Wellness Director at Psychologies Magazine (https://www.psychologies.co.uk/) and wellness author (https://www.aliroff.com/the-wellfulness-project), and as a 200hr yoga alliance yoga teacher and mindfulness expert, and James as an actor (http://www.cam.co.uk/client/james-farrar/) and model (https://www.selectmodel.com/london/model/james-farrar), personal trainer and coach, and vegan chef on our wellness retreats (https://www.aliroff.com/retreats), which we run in London. In each episode, we’ll move around the five elements of holistic wellness – or, the ‘wheel of wellfulness’ as we like to call it – from food, to movement and body, to space, ritual and routine, and your mind; each time taking a look at a different subject, wellness practice, or idea, helping you apply mindful awareness to consider how this idea can serve you on a holistic level, and ultimately asking, ‘does this have a place in my life?’, to help you curate an authentic wellness plan, designed for you, by you."
