12 ways to find your way back to a sustainable everyday life

The holidays often disrupt our routines with late nights, less time for exercise, and more unhealthy habits, such as replacing water with wine every other day. These interruptions are essential for most people to recharge and find new energy and inspiration for the upcoming autumn. After weeks of relaxation and freedom, the inevitable Sunday arrives when, like it or not, it's time to pack your bags and prepare for the first day back at work.

While it can feel good to return to a regular routine, there may also be a reluctance urging us to keep sipping fine wine in the evenings and skip gym sessions in favour of boat rides or barbecue nights. We should certainly allow ourselves occasional enjoyment, especially in the wonderfully warm late summer. However, maintaining healthy habits can make autumn feel more manageable. No matter how you prefer to structure your daily life, here are some tips to help you find your way back to a sustainable routine.

1. Prioritise a good night's sleep
