While we\u2019re partial to a Christmas pudding or New Years dance floor at <\/span>bulk\u2122<\/b>, taking care of our health and wellbeing is paramount. It\u2019s important to find a balance during this time to bring in the new year feeling our best. We looked to an expert, no other than #teambulk\u2019s Sophie Aris for her favourite festive season recipe and tips for staying fit and healthy.<\/span><\/p>\n I\u2019m Sophie, a <\/span>bulk\u2122<\/b> athlete and wellness & lifestyle content creator. <\/span>When I think of a festive recipe, it’s got to be gingerbread men! Here\u2019s my go-to healthy(ish) recipe for you to try yourself.<\/span><\/p>\n I don\u2019t know about you, but there’s only a certain amount of hours I can sit and watch Christmas films for. I love to go for walks to keep active in-between all the eating!<\/span><\/p>\n Nothing makes me feel better than starting the day with a bowl of oats & berries or poached eggs on toast. Around the festive period try having a nourishing breakfast to kick off the day.<\/span><\/p>\n Health isn\u2019t just what we eat and how we move, it’s also how we speak to ourselves, it’s our mindset. Christmas can be a difficult time for many, especially this year. It\u2019s more than ok to take time, relax and reset. Don\u2019t forget to be kind to yourself and others.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n For more delicious recipes and to share your festive fitness tips tag us @bulk<\/a> and #teambulk.
