As the days are getting brighter and the weather is getting warmer, we begin to bring an awareness to our hydration over the next number of weeks. It is important to be armed with good and useful information and is necessary to build up good habits with hydration before the summer months kick in. Come along with us as we share some top tips for keeping up hydration and how to sustain it long term!

We all want to feel comfortable and confident in our bodies. In the pursuit of this, products for haircare, skincare and nailcare take centre stage. However, nutrition can play a crucial role in achieving and maintaining these body parts in a healthy way.

Your kidney is a vital organ, keeping you alive and well for all of life’s ups and downs. Here at Enrich, we want to help you to nurture your kidneys health through mindful and conscious choices, as good renal (kidney) function is essential to everyday life. We hope this guide will answer any questions you have about the impact nutrition and hydration can have on your renal health and empower you to cultivate habits that have a positive effect on the future.

Mindfulness is one of our key pillars at Enrich and is the practice of gently focusing your awareness on the present moment, being aware of where you are, what you are feeling, what you are doing, without being overly reactive or overwhelmed. Taking 10-20 minutes to practice mindfulness per day has been found to have significant benefits to overall wellness, enhancing brain function and overall physical and mental health.

A habit is something that is routine to you that you repeat. This automatic action is informed by contextual ques and can have a positive or negative impact on you and those around you. When building a new habit, you are putting your old habits behind and beginning a new journey, and it is essential to plan attainable long-term habits, they can start off small and gradually, modify the habit to reach the desired goal. The key is to be consistent with whatever you chose to begin.

Around this time of year, people get the feeling of renewal and wanting to start the year on a fresh note. However, it’s very easy to make the decision to ‘eat healthier’ but not actually understand what the concept is in full. We can often feel that to become the healthiest version of ourselves, we need to deny ourselves any pleasure in the food we eat, but this is definitely not the case. Eating food that you enjoy, while feeling connected to your body and your experience, can be a powerful motivator to keep nourishing your body in a sustainable way.
