We’re heading into a new month, which can only mean one thing – our next edition of Healthy Balance digital magazine has dropped. Our June edition is focused on all things summer, from tips on the best refreshing drinks to choose, to prep-ahead salad ideas to inspire you, it’s all in there for you to soak up along with the glorious sunshine.

This week we’re also sharing a piece on stress management. I don’t know about you, but I can find any shift in season or routine a little stress-inducing since I’m a creature of habit. So now is a really good time to take note of some handy tips for managing stressful periods or transitions. This week you’ll find our top tips for tackling stress without feeling like you need to rely on food as a pick-me-up.

And finally, this week’s meal inspiration is veggie lunches – great for those of us who would like to perhaps reduce our meat intake and try something a little different for our midday meals!
