Wellbeing and happy experiences to enjoy in Bristol 2022

Happy and healthy activities to make 2022 your best year yet


Last updated on Friday 22 March 2024


A new year often means a fresh start for people. As Christmas comes to an end people start looking forward to the next year with a "new year, new me" attitude.

People set themselves goals like losing weight, hitting the gym, healthy diets, and new routines, but these new year resolutions can be really restrictive, unsustainable, and miserable! No wonder most of our new year's resolutions are broken within the first few weeks of January. Then we end up feeling bad for being unable to climb the massive mountain we gave ourselves.

Well, not this year! 2022 is for a resolution you CAN do.

2022 is for doing or discovering something that makes you happy. It's that simple!

Wondering what might tickle your fancy? Here's some inspiration to help you find your happy:

Pick up a new hobby:

Try pottery classes and workshops in Bristol

Pottery is looking to be a really popular hobby in 2022! The hands-on meditative nature of pottery means that it's a great way to de-stress whilst being creative- the perfect combo.

Picking up a new hobby is a great way of generating some feel-good chemicals whilst boosting your self-esteem and confidence. Time spent doing a hobby is time dedicated to just yourself and you'll love the mood-boosts your brain gets from problem-solving.

You get to mix up the day-to-day meals whilst having an excuse to invite a bunch of people to yours- win win. Sharpening your kitchen skills is good for your gut, heart, and mind; reduce restlessness and enhance mindfulness by whipping up something tasty.
