In health, as in early development, rhythm is not optional. It is foundational. From light exposure to nutrient timing, from wake cycles to sleep architecture, every major system in the body is governed by time, and when we ignore that clock, performance, mood, recovery, and resilience all suffer.

Scientific consensus began to shift. Sugar wasn’t just energy, it became a metabolic risk. Excess glucose intake was now linked to obesity, Type 2 diabetes, systemic inflammation, and chronic disease.

B vitamins, especially riboflavin (B2), pyridoxine (B6), and methylcobalamin (B12), play a vital role in how our bodies process light and regulate internal rhythms. While they’re best known for supporting general metabolism, these vitamins also help align our biological clock, support the nervous system, and protect against the stress of disrupted sleep or travel.

The travel industry is evolving, and one of the most significant shifts we’re seeing isn’t just about the destinations – it’s about the experience of rest. Sleep tourism is emerging as a game-changer for those who recognise that sleep isn’t just a luxury; it’s a necessity for overall well-being.

By deliberately cultivating it, businesses can ignite creativity, fuel productivity, and create environments where employees thrive

The modern workplace is more connected than ever, yet many of us feel surprisingly isolated.

Research shows that strong workplace connections drive engagement, boost productivity, and improve well-being for both individuals and teams.

There are a lot of things we do in a day that are anxiety inducing and if we're to achieve balance with our nervous systems, minimise stress and improve our sleep there are a multitude of things we need to address differently.

Caffeine and theanine are compounds found in tea but have very different effects on our brains. Caffeine is a well-known stimulant that increases alertness and reduces fatigue, while theanine is an amino acid that promotes relaxation without sedation.

What's your biggest problem as a high performer?

The answer we most commonly hear is sleep.

Always disregarded, always compromised, rarely considered.
