But also, a decade defined by innovation in technology, the rise of smart devices, streaming services that changed the way we listen to music and watch TV. And, of course, how social media, which essentially started the decade before, truly came to dominate our lives in unexpected ways.<\/p>\n<p>What will the next decade bring? It\u2019s hard to tell. There\u2019s hope technology will improve our lives and the lives of people still unfortunate to live in difficult circumstances. We will begin to see deliveries by drones rather than humans. You order something and it doesn\u2019t take days, but hours.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s also growing fear for our planet and her resources, but most especially the global climate change that has notably affected so many parts of the world in such significant ways. Droughts and other natural disasters being amongst some of the big ones. But the heat is rising. We face an uncertain future.<\/p>\n<p>But you only have control over you, in the end, and to a certain extent your immediate environment. We believe that by committing yourself to a wellness programme, you will be better equipped mentally and physically with the changes that come as the \u201820s begin again. This time, though, there probably won\u2019t be any flappers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Body:<\/strong><br \/>\nYou have what it takes to become physically fit. If you\u2019ve been out of practice for a while, well, there\u2019s no better time than the start of a new decade to begin a new you.<\/p>\n<p>For instance:<br \/>\n<strong>\u2022 Planet Fitness Platinum Sandton<\/strong><br \/>\nOne of the best-known gym franchises in the country is easily accessible within our very district. Aside from the usual that you can expect in a gym they also have some uniquely tailored programmes, such as pumpHIITup\u2122, a high-intensity workout routine that will take toning your body to a whole new level. You\u2019ll be fitter than a fiddle fitted with extreme fitness. That\u2019s something.<\/p>\n<p>They also offer a variety of other classes, ranging from the beginner, where you can develop confidence and a foundation to build upon, to moderate to high-intensity workouts like RUSH. This class focuses on getting you to metabolic adaptions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2022 Urban Warrior Boxing Gym<\/strong><br \/>\nWant to float like a butterfly and sting like a bee? Perhaps you\u2019re a believer in being quite literally fighting fit. Or you\u2019re worried it\u2019ll turn out to be Mad Max in the next decade and just want to be ready for an era of road warriors.<\/p>\n<p>Whatever your reasons, Urban Warrior Boxing Gym will get your stamina and strength levels up while developing your co-ordination, balance, and power punches.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll receive the attention of personal trainers, most of whom are former or current pro boxers themselves. Including South African and even World Champions.<\/p>\n<p>Mind:<br \/>\nNot that the above don\u2019t involve some extent of mind (mostly mind-over-matter). But you\u2019ll want to truly develop that mental acumen \u2013 and the best way to do that is to give your brain a workout.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2022 Sandton Library<\/strong><br \/>\nThe most significant library in town, in the whole country, really. It is popular with students as it is as filled with informative and sometimes hard-to-find books on History, Psychology, Biology, Futurism, Science, Business, and plenty of other subjects.<\/p>\n<p>Some books have been out of print for years and you won\u2019t find them anywhere else.<\/p>\n<p>Take good care of them (no reading in the bath!). Books can be one of the best ways, in this age of information overload, to stimulate the brain without overwhelming it.<\/p>\n<p>We suggest a visit and perusing what\u2019s on offer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2022 Exclusive Books<\/strong><br \/>\nOne of the most fabulous bookstore chains in the country, the one that resides in Sandton City is a bibliophile\u2019s most beautiful dream.<\/p>\n<p>For the latest books and informative magazines, there\u2019s no better place to drop by. And even enjoy a stimulating cup of coffee while you start reading your new purchase. Find the latest works by the world\u2019s best authors on just about any subject you can think of.<\/p>\n<p>Want to learn an important history lesson? Well, they say History does repeat itself, and the History section is packed to the brim with all eras of human existence.<\/p>\n<p>Or perhaps you want to remember how insignificant, in the cosmic sense, our problems are. Well, there\u2019s astronomy books for that. Gorgeous photos from the Hubble telescope for you to take home and admire the distant stars, and galaxies they form part of. While learning something, ahem, relatively important at the same time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Soul:<\/strong><br \/>\nWell, aside from the top two sections being part of what feeds the soul \u2013 mind + body, and all that \u2013 there is a more spiritual option for you, too.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2022 Legacy Balance<\/strong><br \/>\nLocated at the DaVinci Hotel, you\u2019ll find a kind of rewarding spiritual experience at this spa and gym. Get a good work out, then go and experience the full spa treatment as you free your mind from all distractions and cleanse your soul of all debris it\u2019s picked up during the week.<\/p>\n<p>With some of the best masseuses in town, you\u2019ll feel all the stress relieved from your body under their skilful hands.<\/p>\n<p>As they put it, \u201cFinding time for yourself is often a tricky balancing act, but at Legacy Balance Spas, it\u2019s child\u2019s play. Harmony in mind and body will be gently restored by breathtakingly beautiful settings, beneficial treatments, and service that puts you first. You\u2019ll feel better from the moment you arrive. Expect to feel unusual side effects \u2013 calm, composure and an inner radiance that will stay with you even after you have returned home.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sounds like an amazing experience to us.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Enjoy the District.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>And that\u2019s just a taste of what Sandton Central has to offer.
