Movement for Modern Life
A recent study revealed that a regular yoga practice, along with breathing exercises and meditation, can reduce inflammation and support the ageing process. It also found those in midlife who had been practising yoga for at least eight years had better brain function. Whether you’re already into yoga or are keen to give it a go, Movement for Modern Life’s Ageless Movement programme is one to try. A series of online classes to do in your own time, it’ll improve flexibility, joint mobility, balance and strength as well as boosting mood, supporting sleep and enhancing cognitive and cardiovascular function.

OsteoTest
A first-of-its-kind product, OsteoTest is the UK’s first at-home testing kit for osteoporosis.

A few weeks later, you’ll receive a detailed report which includes recommendations for supporting your bone health.
