HEALTHY LIFE

Lovi ng the

WALKING POWER

The ‘Soothe Your Mind’ (May) article

struck a life-changing chord with

me. One year ago I began walking

during my lunch break and since

then, so much has changed. I was

feeling unfulfi lled after 21 years of

being a teacher and the staff room

gripes were not improving my

mindset. My 45-minute walks gave

me surprising clarity. A year on, I’m

no longer a teacher and have started

my own business. I’m happier in

mind and body and healthier than

I’ve ever been. My family has

noticed a huge change and

everyone’s benefi ting from a happy

mum and wife. I now try to get out

walking most days, whatever the

weather, and last week while doing

this I resolved a business problem

I’d been mulling over for months.

The space gave me the clarity

I needed to move forward.

The advice in your magazine is invaluable. I am

waiting for a knee operation and after my surgery

I will be back walking and embracing life to the full.

All thanks my excellent surgeon and all in the NHS...

I’VE TAKEN ACTION!

When I picked up the June issue of

Top Santé it was as if it had been

written just for me! I am obese and

despite having cancer last year I

couldn’t motivate myself to improve

things as I felt too embarrassed to

go to a gym. At my last visit to the

doctor I was told I was at risk of

being diagnosed with diabetes.

Your section on avoiding diabetes

provided the push I needed to sort

myself out and I have lost 8lbs in

two weeks by simply cutting out

bread and sugar! It is never too late

to turn your life around.

TIPS

If your feet need some

TLC try Boots Advanced

Footcare Intensive Foot

Softener (£5.99, boots.com).

It’s like a pedicure in a tube!

It gets rid of hard skin and

keeps cuticles tidy.

In an

emergency

situation for roots

showing through before

your next hair

appointment, some

mascara applied to

the uncovered strands

works well.
