Some healthy lunchbox inspiration with Derval O'Rourke

Exercise is essential, and moving your body is one of the key ways we can take care of ourselves. The benefits stretch far beyond the physical to include better sleep, mood and energy levels. However, it’s also one of the easiest things to let slide on those hectic days. I know from trying to juggle working with being a mum, how challenging it can be to stay fit, but trust me, a quick time-efficient session like this will leave you feeling so much better.

Top tip: If you can’t workout, try building some extra movement into your day. It’s quite simple; you just have to be creative about it. For example, next time you are waiting for the kettle to boil try do a mini circuit of 10 counter push ups/ 10 squats/ 10 lunges and repeat until your cup of coffee is ready. I often find myself doing calf raises up and down while I’m brushing my teeth!
