Forget California, the wellness movement was born in the Lake District in the 18th century. Wordsworth, Coleridge and the early Romantics recognised that the beautiful landscapes of lakes and fells soothed the soul and restored the spirit – and provided wonderful grist to their poetic mills. A walk on the fells or an amble by a lake is restorative enough, but today’s Lake District also has plenty of organised activities to help the mind and body: from forest bathing to yoga, from Buddhist meditation breaks to wild swimming and full-bore gym and swim fitness regimes, you are sure to find the perfect pursuit to help you reach your optimum state of being.
