If you are someone who worries so much about looking after everybody else but can’t remember the last time you took an hour out of your day for some self-care, it is time for a re-think. As the saying goes, you cannot pour from an empty cup.

Self-care may mean something different to each one of us. For some it may be an hour reading their favourite book, for others a meal out with friends or it could even just be a long quiet walk, undisturbed by emails and phones. What seems clear though, is that looking after your physical fitness alongside your mental wellbeing will stand you in good stead in improving your overall health and wellbeing.

Belonging to a health club is, for many, the secret to looking after their health and wellbeing. A club usually gives you access to a variety of facilities at the same location, saving you time and stress and providing a relaxing safe haven.

If you live in North West London, one of the first places that springs to mind when thinking about health and wellbeing is likely to be The Laboratory Spa & Health Club. Having built a reputation on impeccable cleanliness and five-star customer service, it also offers activities that not only build or maintain fitness, but which also help members to relax and unwind. At the Lab, fitness takes a holistic approach with the belief that, to achieve balance and success, you must look after yourself both mentally and physically.
