Lifestyle perspectives on holiday wellness and seasonal shopping

Betty Doyling encourages maintaining physical activity during the holiday season rather than waiting until January. She suggests that despite increased social events, travel, and dietary changes, staying active through local running groups, hotel gyms, or reduced workout frequencies can help individuals finish the year stronger.

In fashion and homewares, recent seasonal picks include crochet sets from The Upside, highlighted during a store re-launch in Mosman, Sydney. Additionally, mixed-media prints by Newcastle-based artist Brittany Ferns are noted as significant seasonal decor items.
