With temperatures nearing an icy -90 degrees Celsius in parts of Antarctica, winter in England will seem like a vacation. With the UK experiencing a mild winter in 2007, most people will be hoping for a similar winter this year.
Instead of staying indoors, why not take advantage of all that winter has to offer. We are not suggesting that you take the plunge and join the Hampstead Heath Winter Swimming club, where members regularly take a dip in the freezing winter conditions but ratherhit the slopes and do a little cross country skiing or snowboarding.
Icy tumbles
If you are taking part in extreme activities this winter, remember to carry a first aid kit and use a high factor of sunscreen as well as good eye protection like goggles.If you don’t fancy hitting the slopes, ice skating is a great winter activity for the whole family. Celebs like David and Victoria Beckham were spotted ice-skating in Hyde Park with their children last December. Pocket sized Arnicare™ Arnica kids stick will help sooth any knocks and bangs that occur when your children take a tumble on the ice. Arnica kids stick glides on in a fun natural green colour and is suitable for everyone over 3 years old.
Control the winter chills
If you are abroad, you may want to try your hand at ice fishing. It is a great way to relax and can be done out in the open on a frozen lake or in a heated cabin. Along with your fishing rod and your fish bait, pack Nelsons™ Chilblains cream, which is formulated from the fresh root of wild Black Bryony for the symptomatic treatment of chilblains.
Beat winter colds
If a winter cold is keeping you indoors, Nelsons Coldenza™ can help. Nelsons Coldenza is a natural homeopathic remedy which provides gentle and soothing relief from the symptoms of a cold such as headaches, sore throats, earache, and feverish symptoms. It is non-drowsy, suitable for all the family.
Motivate yourself
If you are lacking the motivation to try out a winter activity, don’t shy away from the outside world. Try out the Bach™ Original Flower Remedy Hornbeam which can help those who doubt their ability to face the day ahead and the Bach Original Flower Remedy Olive to help with your energy, vitality and interest in life.
Always read the label.
