Keeping Well on Hamilton Island

Wellness is a bit of a buzzword these days. With Wellness Centres opening up on every block and wellness programs introduced into workplaces in a quick and easy effort to reflect concern for staff, the wellness trend seems to be heaping more pressure on us to look and feel 'better' than ever before.

According to Nikki Fogden-Moore, self-professed Mojo Maker, while the wellness craze has been corrupted as it rises in popularity, it's founding values still holds true.

"This wellness trend has been around a long time and has picked up incredible momentum in the last five years," said Ms Fogden-Moore.

"Now more than ever, we are bombarded with messages about looking and feeling healthier, living longer, being energetic, slimmer, stronger and less stressed."

"But if we can concentrate on the basic ingredients we can educate people on what healthy really looks and feels like. Fresh food, fresh air and a fresh perspective are the best places to start," she counters.

And on Hamilton Island, under the wellness umbrella, this is what one can hope to find.
