New Year. Same, healthier you

Here are our top tips for detoxing like a pro.

1. Green juice – you’ve heard all about it time and time again so, it’s time to finally implement it on a daily basis. Here’s our favourite recipe for the ultimate, detoxing, start-your-day-off-healthier juice. .

1 cucumber

 1 apple

1 cup of pineapple

Large knob of ginger

1 lemon

3 celery stalks

Handful of kale

2. TeGreen capsules, one capsule of these equates to seven cups of green tea (and of course, all the benefits that come along with it). All natural, cruelty-free and caffeine-free (cheers to less anxiety this year). Yes, please. These capsules are our go-to for clearer skin, flatter tummies, extra energy and a little weight-loss. From R260 for a bottle of 30 capsules. Details: beauty@gmail.com
3. Join a gym, go for a run, anything to get the blood pumping. We all hate the thought of exercise but the benefits are so plentiful (think reduced anxiety and increased endorphins, weight-loss and heart health) that we can no longer avoid taking out our old trainers and dusting them off. Our fave places to burn off the steam are.
4. Virgin Active – think numerous classes, world-class facilities and top trainers.
5. Barre Body- these workouts are great for cardio and toning (tighter bums and smaller waists. yes, please!). It’s also a women-only studio (no more stressing over sweat patches in awkward places). Shop FF09 Rivonia Village Shopping Center, Rivonia. Details: barrebody.co.za .
6. Smiths Boxing Gym – get ready to sweat! This gym has trained up a few professional boxers, too. Cedar road, Cedar Square, Sandton. Details: smithsgym.co.za
7. Dry January … Yup, cut the alcohol. Benefits like improved sleep, clear skin, weight-loss, a detoxed liver and a stronger immune system can be expected.
8. Make sure you get enough sleep in!
