The bed is fully electrically adjustable and features a heatable surface to ensure maximum comfort, as well as a fully customisable finish to match any decor.

Shorter meditations here can be slotted into tight windows to offer a quick boost. calm.com AURA The ultimate solution for those who are short on time, some of the breathing exercises are just 30 seconds long – but the effects are felt long afterwards. aurahealth.io HEADSPACE Market-leading app with a bit of everything, for beginners and experts alike. Treat the sessions like workouts and don’t miss the soporific sleepcasts. headspace.com Nothing brightens the mood quite as much as a breath of fresh air – especially indoors. The innovative, sustainable, crowdfunded air purifier from Briiv (near right; briiv.co.uk) is as effective in protecting one from airborne pollutants, the founders claim, as 3,043 house plants – but it’s the eye-catching design, and focus on sustainable materials, that set it apart. The Aromeo Sense (aromeodiffuser.com), in contrast, combines light, aroma and sound therapy to soften, enliven or just enhance the mood, whether you’re drifting off to sleep or waking with a dawn chorus. Nota Bene EAT LIGHT Famed German clinic Buchinger Wilhelmi – known for its spectacularly effective curative fasts – now offers a cookbook with its ultra-healthy menus for a post-detox reset. buchinger-wilhelmi.com 7 6 37 DEPARTURES
