Our contributors share their top health hacks and plans for 2021…
Victoria Pendleton
Top health hack? The key is to be kind to yourself, spend time in nature, enjoy a balanced and ideally mostly plant-based diet, and exercise regularly in a way that you enjoy. Try also to be mindful of enjoying everything in moderation.
Plans for 2021? To travel. It’s been strange spending so much time at home, I appreciate more than ever what a beautiful country the UK is. I have explored a lot of it on my motorcycle over the last few months.
Favourite place to escape? I love surfing in Costa Rica. Living on the edge of the jungle and close to beaches, surrounded by nature, is a heavenly experience.
Comfort food you love to cook? Thai and Indian-inspired meals with lots of vegetables. Plus, vegan cookies as a treat.
Felix Minns
Top health hack? My wife bought me an acupressure lotus mat. Ten minutes meditation lying on those 5,000 ergonomic spikes seems to be working wonders for my lockdown blues.
Plans for 2021? To clamber out of the trenches and start travelling again.
Favourite place to escape? My calling will always be to the mountains. There’s nothing like charging down a steep face of virgin powder for pure unbridled escapism.
Comfort food you love to cook? Chicken broth, food for body and soul. We are lucky to have a local butcher who delivers.
Nigel Tisdall
Top health hack? Stressed? Search ‘Yoga Ben’ on YouTube – he’ll whisk you off to a better place.
Plans for 2021? If we’re allowed out to play, there’s a once-every-400-years or so solar eclipse in Antarctica on 4 December. If not, 2021 is a bumper year for TV sports with the Euros, Olympics and a Lions rugby tour to enjoy.
Favourite place to escape? I really love Nevis – a tiny, super-scenic island in the Leeward Islands of the Caribbean. It’s a last bastion of old school charm.
Comfort food you love to cook? Rhubarb crumble – roast the stalks first, add stem ginger, and pimp up the topping with mixed spice.
Rachell Smith
Top health hack? I like to get up and go for a 20 minute run each morning. I feel energised for the rest of the day and listening to motivational music helps.
Plans for 2021? I have lots of amazing shoots ahead and I’m working on my first book, which is an insight into my lighting techniques over the years.
Favourite place to escape? I love the Caribbean islands – as soon as it’s safe to, I’m booking my ticket to Antigua.
Comfort food you love to cook? I make enormous Yorkshire puddings and put the rest of the roast dinner inside.
