It’s summer! And there’s a new mood afoot – we’ve had a tough winter of economic and health-scare gloom, and it’s time to turn that corner and embrace the season that truly makes us sunny. In our special report on boosting energy levels, we examine how, when and why we need to make this a priority – unless we are feeling good, we can’t give energy to those around us. We also give you the lowdown on the latest hot dance styles from around the world. There’s also tips for holiday packing, how to get rid of holiday bloat and clever ways to ensure you come back from your vacation not only rested, but also slim and fit – yes, really! Plus we share the suncare information that will make it a cinch to protect you and your family all summer long. Enjoy!

This years theme is ‘Be head strong’. The campaign aims to raise awareness of dementia and how to reduce your risk, and to raise vital funds to support people with dementia and their carers.
This is a 5-day camping festival in the Mendip Hills in Somerset developed to focus on green issues. The Big Green Gathering is for people who care about health, the environment, sustainability, our children's future and life in general. For more information visit www.big-green-gathering.com
Celebrate summer by getting out in the sunshine and discovering one of the country’s vast National Parks. Gather family and friends, pack a picnic (and your latest edition of Healthy) and get outdoors! National Parks Week is to remind everyone that these open spaces exist, and that there are no better places to recharge your batteries. Visit www.anpa.gov.uk for more information.
