...especially when it comes to alcohol.

In my latest What’s Your Tonic? podcast, I talk about what it’s really like to reduce or stop drinking — the considerations, the challenges, and the surprising benefits.

This is just a short clip taken from it.

I’ve now been alcohol-free for over 3 years, and honestly, I’ve felt the difference in my energy, focus, and overall wellbeing.

When the sun is out, we are on the deck!

For a long time, wellbeing was seen as something we did alone — solo workouts, personal goals, individual routines. But one of the biggest wellbeing shifts now is recognising how important connection really is.

We’re not designed to thrive in isolation.

Our wellbeing is closely linked to our relationships, our communities and our sense of belonging. Connection isn’t just a “nice to have” — it’s essential for our mental and emotional health.

And it doesn’t have to mean big groups or busy schedules. Sometimes it’s the small moments that matter most — a walk with a friend, a chat with a neighbour or a shared experience with others.

Doing things together often makes them more enjoyable and easier to maintain. We thrive when we support each other.

Wellbeing isn’t just about what we do for ourselves — it’s about the connections we build along the way.

Purpose gives direction to our lives. When we stay connected to our why, even small steps feel meaningful.

But it’s easy to lose sight of it. Life gets busy, priorities shift, and sometimes we just go through the motions. I know I have to remind myself of my “why” from time to time.

For me, it’s about creating more moments that matter — like spending quality time together, heading into London, sharing a meal, or seeing a show. Simple things, but they’re what it’s all for.

When you reconnect with your purpose, challenges can start to feel like part of the journey rather than obstacles in the way.

Take a moment to reflect:
* What mattered most when you started?
* What truly matters to you now?

Your why doesn’t have to be big or complicated — it just has to mean something to you.

One of the most powerful parts of cold water dipping isn’t just the water — it’s the people you share it with.

Dipping with others creates a unique sense of community. There’s something about stepping into cold water together that quickly breaks down barriers.

Conversations feel easier, encouragement comes naturally, and everyone shares the same experience — whatever the weather.

This sense of connection can be hugely beneficial for wellbeing. Feeling part of a group helps reduce loneliness, lifts mood, and gives you something to look forward to.

Knowing others are waiting on the bank can also provide the motivation to show up, even on the colder or darker days.

Cold water dipping together isn’t about competition or performance — it’s about support, shared moments, and a collective sense of achievement.

Sometimes the real warmth comes not from the water, but from the community around it.

Sometimes the biggest growth comes from the moments that make us most uncomfortable.

When we say yes to new opportunities — even the ones that stretch us — we open the door to experiences that can completely reshape our confidence and our sense of what’s possible.

I remember being asked in my last corporate role to set up a new team in Budapest — leading an offshoring project from scratch. At first, it felt daunting and unfamiliar. But in hindsight, it became one of my proudest achievements: building a talented 12-person team that made a real difference to how we worked and connected across the business.

Saying yes can feel risky — but it’s also where growth begins.

What opportunity could you say yes to this week?

Take a moment to reflect on your own wellbeing and how openness to growth plays a role in it.

When life gets busy or challenging, it’s easy to lose sight of why you started in the first place.

Why not take a moment to reconnect with your purpose.

Remember the initial spark that motivated you — your goals, values, or dreams.

Let that guide your actions and decisions.

Every step forward becomes more meaningful when rooted in intention. 🔥

* Exercise & fresh air
* Time with mates
* Challenging yourself
* Switching off

In my case I love time spent in the mountains for all of the above reasons...as I dig deeper into how we maintain and improve my own wellbeing it comes to mind that the reasons above align with the framework I love to return to time after time - 5 Pillars of Wellbeing

Briefly the Pillars are - Exercise, Being Present, Learning, Giving, Community.

There's still time to get SkiFit if you are heading to the mountains for Easter. Our bespoke SkiFit programme combines endurance, strength, balance, mobility and flexibitliy with over 40 On Demand videos.

If nothing else, getting skifit will help you keep up with, stay ahead of your friends or even leave you less tired for the apres ski at the end of the day. Whatever your focus - make the most of your time in the mountains!

Our Story

Yoga Tonic UK is comprised of Tim and Shannon Phillis who are both RYT200 yoga teachers (YogaLondon). We teach classes from our home gym in Cookham, near Maidenhead and Marlow. Tim has enjoyed sports all his life, starting with team sports in school through to ultra-distance running and triathlon. After suffering a knee injury, Tim took up yoga to strengthen the muscles around his knee and core. Tim is a mindful teacher and has vast experience coaching teams, triathlon clubs and circuits classes. Shannon has had a love of running and cycling for years and started taking up yoga regularly when moving to the UK from California in 2000. Shannon always wanted to become a yoga teacher but got distracted with triathlon, where she met her husband in the slow swimmers lane at Fulham pools. Yoga used to be a supplement rather than a training session but if ever missing a week of yoga, the muscles would feel it. Tim and Shannon now believe that yoga can be a training session on it's own but instead of just focusing the body, it also focuses the mind improving overall well being (a bit cliche but true). All are welcome and feedback is always appreciated!
