Hey guys! Right now the world is facing a global pandemic due to coronavirus (Covid-19). On top of the worry that many people are already facing from this, a lot of us have been put into lockdown. This is understandably going to effect all of us in different ways, including our mental health. Humans are a social species and we’re not built to be cooped up indoors for extended periods of time. Therefore, it’s okay to not be feeling okay right now.

Today I wanted to acknowledge the effects that the coronavirus pandemic is having on peoples mental health and focus on some tips for keeping yourself in balance. I’ve been in touch with some fantastic people and companies to create a collaborative post that covers a whole range of mental health boosting tips and tricks. From meditation techniques to exercise, new hobbies and recommendations, together we’ve tried to cover everything. I've split the post into two halves which cover looking after ourselves physically and also mentally. So sit back and have a flick through the advice that we have compiled and, most importantly, stay healthy and safe!

UPDATE: Post was updated on 15/04/20 to add extra tips!

Before we dive into the tips and recommendations, I wanted to start by saying that if you are really struggling right now then please do not be put off from reaching out for help. I have included contact information for relevant helplines and websites at the end of the post for anyone who may be in need of them.

Wicked Gummy Co. Vitamins Range review

- This post contains gifted products and affiliate links. -

Hi guys! I’ve been a bit quiet lately (but most certainly still here), but I’m here today with a whopper of a review discussing 5 different beneficial gummy vitamins for your hair, skin, nails and health. If you’re a regular reader of the blog you may have seen some other posts over the last year or so discussing different hair, nail and skin vitamins, but today we’re definitely taking it up a notch with a whole range to show you. Not only are we talking beauty vitamins, but we’re looking at multivitamins, natural sleep and anxiety/depression aids, probiotics and vitamin D goodness.

Wicked Gummy Co. range

Wicked Gummy Co. is a new vitamins brand that just hit the market who offer a range of gummy vitamins that are vegan friendly, allergy friendly and contain no added sugar. The collection includes:

Vitamin D Sunshine Gummies - 1000% of your RDI of vitamin D to help strengthen bones, muscle and teeth. Also good for those who follow a plant based diet. Orange flavour
Hair, Skin & Nails - a blend of biotin, vitamins A, C D2 & E, zinc and folate to help provide and maintain healthy hair, glowing skin and stronger nails. Mixed berry flavour
Peaceful ZZZZZ - valerian root, passiflora and 5-HTP, a combination to increase serotonin levels, helping to aid sleep, depression, anxiety, sleep disorders, weight gain and more. Passion fruit flavour
Multivitamin - a blend of essential daily vitamins, including A, B6, C, D & E as well as selenium, biotin and niacin. Overall helping the immune system, normal vision, bone health, psychological function, fatigue, cell protection and maintenance of the hair, skin and nails. Lemon flavour
Happy Tummy - a probiotic gummy that contains friendly bacteria to keep your gut flora in balance helping with digestive health, weight loss and immune function. Yoghurt flavour

Each of the Wicked Gummy Co. vitamins come in packs of 60 and have a dosage of 2 gummies per day, so one bottle will last 30 days. You can purchase each bottle individually, in special duo packs or as a large bundle. The duo packs and bundles carry a very decent discount.

The bottles are clear plastic with a black safety screw cap lid. They each have a black sticker wrapped around the bottle with product info. The gummies themselves are all circular and dome shaped except for the Peaceful ZZZZZ gummies which are shaped like bears.

As you may imagine, trying to go into detail about how each kind of vitamin has helped me specifically is going to be difficult when some cross over in regards to what benefits they have. Therefore I am going to discuss the Wicked Gummy Co. range as a group but make some comments about the individual vitamins as we go.
