In need of some vitamin sea? If you don’t want to break the bank with a surfing holiday on the beach, an afternoon of SUP is a slightly less extravagant option. You might even be able to squeeze in a relaxing sunset session after work. Let the waves wash away your sorrow as you balance on the board and float on the water. Although, as opposed to surfing, it is a beginner-friendly water sport, you still get a good total body workout out of it by both toning and strengthening your muscles. Apart from the physical benefits, it is a good way to de-stress and, thus, the ultimate well-being booster.

Those with pets can confirm: animals make you happy.

The good thing is you don’t even have to spend hours driving out to the countryside as we also have horse riding in London available.
