✨Guys, I don’t think working out are overrated. I go to the gym every day and it completely changed my life. I do feeling more energetic now, and my stress level have decreased.
�But here's the thing – I train for six months, and I don’t see huge physical changes yet. I guess the results always take time, don’t they? Still, I keep going because I know it’s working. Do anyone else feel the same about their fitness journey?
🌿 I practicing meditation for a while now, and it do help me stay calm. But it’s not as easy as people say! Sometimes, my mind just wanders, and I don’t able to focus at all.�
Recently, I try guided meditations – have anyone else tried them? They really help! I have noticed that I less stressed at work lately, and I am sleeping better too. You should totally try it if you haven’t already.
💤 Does anyone else feels like they’re in a toxic relationship with their phone? I have been scrolling Instagram every night before bed for years, and my sleep is terrible.�
Recently, I have been deciding to try putting my phone away an hour before bed. I am not sure it work yet, but I do feeling a bit more rested in the mornings. Have anyone else tried changing their night routine to sleep better? I need ideas!

1. Extra speaking and grammar practice: What’s Happening in the World of Wellness?
2. At home students can research a health-related topic (e.g., benefits of mindfulness, dangers of processed food) and present what they found using all four target tenses where possible.
3. Students create a 10-question grammar quiz related to health and wellness, using different tenses.
They can swap quizzes with a partner or a teacher and take each other’s tests.��4. Students record a 1–2 minute video discussing their approach to health, using at least three of the target tenses. They share their recordings or submit them for feedback.
