Navigating Christmas

Staying On Track Without Missing the Joy

The festive season is a time for celebration, family, and food!

It’s also easy to feel torn between enjoying the festive cheer and staying on track with your fitness and nutrition goals. The good news? You don’t have to choose—here are our top tips to strike the perfect balance.

Keep Active

Schedule your workouts as non-negotiable “me time.” Whether it’s a class at Sanctuary or a brisk walk, staying active will keep you energized and stress-free.

Set Your Priorities

Choose the events or meals that are most important to you, and plan to enjoy them fully.

Stay hydrated

With more alcohol and rich food around, keep water handy to balance things out.

Prioritise Sleep

Aim for 7–8 hours even on busy nights—it’s the secret to making it through December without burnout!

Prep When You Can

When things get hectic, having pre-prepped meals can be a lifesaver. Companies like Kitchen HQ make it easy to enjoy balanced, ready-to-eat meals that keep you fuelled. They’re perfect for busy days when you need to refocus after a festive feast!

Remember The Big Picture

A few indulgent meals won’t undo months of hard work. Consistency is what counts, so enjoy the season without guilt. If you slip, get back on track the next day.

At Sanctuary, we’re here to help you stay active and feel your best during the holiday season. Join us for classes that keep the energy high, and let’s celebrate staying strong together!
