Film Time!

Though we strongly believe in facing facts, conquering fears and meditating regularly for mental well being. But there are times where you feel so rough that all you should do is cuddle up with a hot water bottle and escape into a decent film or binge-worthy series. Especially while fasting, when time can feel like its standing still! We created this list specially for these times :)

If your more in the mood for a quality, chilled, nature-based documentary - we hear you! You can't beat a good David Attenborough doc - see our list of fav nature docs here.
