Episode notes

In this last episode of series 2, I’m ditching all the usual pre-Christmas questions about presents, holiday plans and finishing work.

What I really want to know is: how are you feeling?

Turns out, there's a reason. According to a study (tune in to find out more), it’s a special breed of "Christmas hormones" that wreak havoc on our bodies, and can cause chronic fatigue. No wonder we're feeling exhausted.

So, how do we cope with December sluggishness?

Listen in for 5 tips to help you ease the festive build-up, and take better care of yourself along the way.
