If you live in the Northern Hemisphere, January is always a tough month.
The days are short, the weather is cold, and the post-Christmas buzz dies down fast.
Because of this, January doesn’t just bring about the start of the year, it’s also a time that people crave a total wellbeing overhaul, helping them reset and start the year right.
So, if you find yourself looking for a way to reset this January then look no further, we’ve rounded up 10 health and wellness apps to help you tackle January wellbeing right.
Audopia

Audopia is a personalised, audio-first mental health and wellbeing app designed for people who want support without screens.
Unlike many wellbeing apps that rely on visual prompts and constant interaction through the app, Audopia focuses entirely on guided audio experiences. This makes it easy to integrate into everyday life, whether users are walking, commuting, resting, or winding down, without adding more screen time to their day.
Athlete

January isn’t just about wellbeing, it’s about getting your finances back on track. Athlete pulls these two elements together with their fresh approach to life insurance. The app allows users to earn cashback on their life insurance premiums based on their cardio fitness levels, with up to 50% of your premium back in your pocket.
After taking out a policy through insurance partner Cover Direct, users download the Athlete app, which looks at fitness levels quarterly and tracks improvements over time.
Based on an Athlete fitness score from 1 to 10, users earn cashback against their premium. To put this into perspective, a moderately fit 40-year-old could earn £1000 cashback on their life insurance policy. That way, you aren’t only getting fit, you’re saving money too.

Clubwell is a free wellness app launched by Steve Bennett, founder of Health Results, with a mission to improve the UK’s relationship with food and metabolic health.
Developed alongside scientists and academics, the app supports users who want to lose weight, build muscle, boost energy or simply feel better in their own skin.
Features include a database of over 1,000 recipes, a full micro and macro nutrient tracker, weekly food challenges and a community element. The app also has information on naturally increasing GLP-1 hormone production, allowing users to avoid ‘quick fix’ options like weight-loss injections.
