We have round up our favourite products to help you get through January, and the rest of the year. Whatever your plans and goals are for 2020 we do wish you luck with them. Sit back, relax and enjoy our January Survival Guide!

Stay Healthy and Hydrated

If you are determined to drink more water this year, but find it beyond boring, then we have found the cure. Stay focused on your healthy drinking goals with the Citrus Zinger Sport. Whether you love limes, crave clementines or only enjoy oranges, Citrus Zinger Sport is the water bottle for you. Featuring a built-in juicer; it spells the end for boring water and gives your hydration ritual a well-overdue kick.

Keep Your Organisational Skills on Point

Stay organised all year round with a personalised luxury leather journal. These thick pages offer an unparalleled experience for capturing your thoughts or sketches, perhaps on your travels or meetings at work. These special notebooks are handmade in Italy by master craftsmen using the finest, supple leather. You’re able to choose your preferred size (A7 to A4), refillable or non-refillable, lined or plain paper and your embossing (blind, silver or gold). The Sorrento is great value from £14, whilst the Chianti has an old world feel with its distinctive marble spine. Many of these journals can be shut with a tie, protecting your pages from getting ruined whilst you’re on the go.

Look After Your Skin

Perhaps you’re still eating all that chocolate from Christmas day, and breaking out in spots like you wouldn’t believe. If this is the case. It’s time to take control and keep your skin looking and feeling amazing with the Indulgent Organic Mini Spa Set from Conscious Skincare. We came across this organic skincare brand just before New Year and we totally recommend it!

Stay Active

Everyone knows how important it is to keep fit. Regular exercise helps us to maintain a healthy body mass index, reducing the risk of all manner of health conditions, from heart disease to diabetes. Unfortunately, it’s not always possible for everyone to exercise comfortably and safely. Modesty is deeply important to many women. Finding appropriate sports and active wear, in a world where figure-hugging design is so prominent, can be problematic. However, the new collection of AM Active has been designed specifically to meet the needs of the modern modest woman. Created from light weight fabrics, that are still soft against the skin, the range has been designed to deliver optimum flexibility, allowing you to run, jump, cycle, use gym equipment and participate in any kind of sport, safely, but without needing to unnecessarily expose your body. 

Inspire Yourself And Others Around You

If January blues are really taking over, then it’s important to try and keep yourself feeling happy and motivated. There are a lot of resources out there to help you survive January. Firstly, try getting yourself stuck into a really cool DIY project or emerge yourself into a good book. You will find lots of inspiration by clicking here.

Small rewards are great encouragement to keep you going during the hardest first weeks when it comes down to your New Year resolutions. After that you can probably reward yourself once a week with a magazine, a long-distance call to a supportive friend, a siesta, a trip to the movies or whatever makes you tick. Later you can change the rewards to monthly and then at the end of the year you can pick an anniversary reward. Something that you’ll look forward to. You deserve it and you’ll have earned it.
