TV presenter Lisa Snowdon, 54, recently visited a wellness retreat in Bali following her separation from George Smart, her partner of 12 years. Snowdon shared on Instagram that wellness for her is about connection, including meeting people, engaging in conversations, physical activity, mindfulness, and occasional emotional release. She mentioned having a "good old cry" during her trip. Snowdon also stated that she feels stronger mentally and physically after participating in activities like pilates and hot Bikram yoga. Concerns about her relationship status arose when she was seen without her engagement ring and Smart was largely absent from her Instagram since January.
