CUE THE JACARANDAS AND KALE

• IT’S SPRING! And spring is a pretty
  good season to feel transformed, isn’t it?
  Maybe with a fresh haircut, a white sage
  cleanse or an updated Facebook profile
  picture. Or even better, by matching your
  workouts to a new outdoorsy season and
  giving your thoughts a spring clean.
  As we ditch our winter sloths, we’re
  welcoming in a time of transformations.
  I’m a terrible green thumb (RIP every herb
  garden I’ve ever touched), but I reckon
  it’s a time when we can be tending to
  ourselves just like a garden – planting new
  goals, sweeping away unwanted habits,
  letting the sunshine have its way with us.
  One dictionary definition of spring is
  to “jump rapidly upwards or forwards”. Two
  great directions to head in, right? So why
  not use this equinox, and everything it
  stands for, to get on the right garden path
  in every shrub of your life – find wellness
  at work (on page 26), take your treadmill
  sessions outside (run to 54), upgrade your
  roasting repertoire (page 80 has all the
  recipes) or get mindful with your beauty
  routine (take a masterclass on page 116).
  When it comes to re-blooming, I’m all
  about manifestation (if you’ve met me, you
  know I’m obsessed). While I don’t need the

calendar to change

dates to be able to

manifest, I’ll take any

reminder on offer

to reset my wish list.

Not a believer? Then

I highly recommend

you bookmark the no-BS guide to

manifesting by our awesome resident

kinesiologist, Yolande Herring, on

page 36. It’s life changing. Literally.

So let’s pack the hoodies away (my

favourite part!) and take a little spring

break to retune. Here’s to all of our

manifestations (especially the one where

Kit Harington asks me to marry him)

blossoming into fruition this spring.

Enjoy the issue!

Spring

into it
