While an intense workout definitely isn’t appealing (or recommended), engaging in light exercise can help get your blood flowing and boost your energy levels. Consider going for a gentle walk, practising yoga, or doing some light stretching. Exercise releases endorphins, which can improve your mood and counteract the effects of a late night. Listen to your body and choose activities that feel comfortable and rejuvenating.

Green tea is a brilliant ally when it comes to post-celebration recovery. Rich in antioxidants and known for its detoxifying properties, it helps support your liver’s natural detox processes.
