BRAIN FOOD

Keep your brain sharp with these free online resources.

Ebooks
Google Books, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Kobo, Apple Books and Audible are all offering a selection of free ebooks. To enjoy a range of free ebooks on every topic imaginable, simply search “free books” at each site.

Study online
From novel writing to coding and design, Future Learn has a multitude of short courses and online degrees from leading universities. It’s never too late to learn a new skill or pursue the career of your dreams.

Research, research, research 
If you’ve always had a strong interest in academia or are keen to learn more about a specific topic in-depth, now is a great time to read the latest publications and get up to speed on the latest developments with your area. Visit www.jstor.org for access to thousands of academic journals for free during lockdown.

Yoga is an excellent way to improve flexibility, fitness and relieve stress simultaneously, all from the comfort of your home.

For beginners or those with limited mobility, why not start off with some gentle chair yoga. GemLife Woodend resident and fully-qualified yoga instructor Julie Ritchi has created a program of simple, at-home chair yoga poses that anyone can try.

Or for those looking for something more intensive, try one of Brett Larkin’s many free online yoga challenges.

Uffizi in Florence, Italy, with arguably one of the best collections of Renaissance art in the world.

Musée d’Orsay in Paris, home to an incredible collection of Van Gogh and Cezanne’s artistic masterpieces.
