Result

A: The Go-Getter
You’re a career woman with the sights set on the corner office (and no one doubts you’ll get it). You want to be the best and thrive on new challenges, but avoid slowing down to lest the lack of sleep, food and rest catches up with you. Balance this type: Squeeze some self-care into your tight schedule. Try running yourself a bath, turning off your phones for an hour (yes, both of them) or taking a walk in nature in between meetings. Pick up some healthy snacks so that you have something nutritious at hand when you’re burning the midnight oil.

B: The Fitness Fanatic
You have a strict exercise regime and count macros like a pro. You’re at the gym when you’re not working and you always get your 8 hours of beauty sleep. Seeing results is what fuels your fire, but the word ‘fun' is missing from your vocabulary. Balance this type: Ease up on the strict diet a bit. Small deviations from a healthy diet don’t matter much! So indulge in an occasional treat that feeds your soul and sends your taste-buds to seventh heaven! Don’t forget to incorporate social activities that are very important for wellbeing – perhaps opt for a two-in-one solution and go for a powerwalk with a friend?

C: The Bon Vivant
You enjoy life and indulge in rich foods, extravagant vacations and Sunday sleep-ins. You’re never stressed (unless you run out of butter!) and in your world, deadlines are symbolic and exercise feels like a punishment. Balance this type: Exercise would do you good, but focus on fun and playful activities that suit your personality type like tennis, dance or horseback riding if you like animals. Swap some of that cream and cheese for crispy salads and protein and fibre-rich snacks for more balanced nutrition.

D: The Spiritual Junkie
You start every day with a green smoothie, lemon water, meditation and #yogaeverydamnday. You’re a dedicated vegan who loves spirulina and prioritises health and spiritual wellbeing over everything. Balance this type: Crystals may help you balance your chakras, but you may need to look outside your spiritual quest to find your true nirvana. Take a salsa class, indulge in some decadent peanut butter chunk ice-cream and go on a date! Life is not meant to be taken so seriously.

E: The Social Butterfly
Mid-week margaritas, clubbing and Sunday brunch are essential components of your life. You prioritise having fun, but feels burnt out, broke and unfit. Balance this type: Since socialising is your oxygen, try calmer and healthier social activities like going to the spa or out for a run with friends - it could make all the difference to your wellbeing! Don’t forget to get enough shuteye and load up on antioxidants and healthy foods to counteract oxidative stress.
