Health & Wellness Gizmos & Gadgets

Written by Aidy Smith

Technology has long been a passion of mine – and I’m always trying to get to grips with the latest gizmos and gear we can get our hands-on. In this issue, I want to focus on some new releases that will help you with your health and wellbeing as we enter some of the most testing months ahead. We’re nearly at the end of the tunnel, but the suggestions below will help make things that bit easier as you navigate any anxiety and stress you may be feeling. Here are some of the top-spec tech, gizmos and a couple of cheeky treats on the market right now.

OTO CBD Sleep Drops & Pillow Mist

For those who are restless or having difficulty sleeping each night, OTO is the benchmark of quality when it comes to CBD products. Their pillow mist contains a combination of CBD, lavender, roman chamomile and vetiver with the sleep drops produced from lavender, butterfly pea flower, field mint and CBD. Both have a distinct purpose to help alleviate stress, anxiety and pain while offering a host of other benefits given the distinct ingredients. From healing properties and enhancing memory capacity to a plethora of antioxidants and vitamins. Tested and tried by someone who suffers from insomnia. I can happily tell you; they work.

SEGA Flux

There’s nothing quite like looking up at the stars, completely in awe of the ever-expanding universe. Thanks to SEGA, you can now do this at home. For anyone thinking this may be a bit gimmicky, it’s not. It may be created by ‘Sega Toys’ but the reality is a planetarium created by world-renowned Japanese innovator, Takayuki Ohira who has spent decades in this field. As the evening draws in, thousands of stars allow you to completely unwind, reduce your anxiety levels and feel at one with yourself. Over 30 disks are available should you wish to have a different scene. From shooting stars to planets and even the aurora borealis.

Somnox Sleep 

The idea of sleeping with a robot might make you feel a little uncomfortable at first, but the technology behind this has been proven to help those who suffer from being unable to sleep. Controlled breathing has always been a technique to clear our mind and calm ourselves when feeling anxious, but it turns out the same thinking allows us to sleep easier too. This sleep robot essentially guides you into rhythmic breathing with its life-like expanding and deflating breathing program. Completely natural, there is no need for medicine to help you drift off – users have reported feeling safe, secure and comforted when next to Somnox, helping them drift off into a peaceful sleep with better, deeper relaxation resulting in more energy.

Cartografie Chocolates

You may be wondering why chocolate and wellness are in the same category but there’s a good reason – it’s all to do with endorphins. Turns out quality cocoa causes our brain to release a surge of endorphins, which upon interacting with receptors in our brains cause a surge of euphoria. Let me be clear– your average bar of Cadbury’s is NOT going to have the same effect. What I’m talking about is the purest possible form of quality and indulgence, handcrafted with cocoa sourced directly (and ethically) from top cacao farmers. Head Chocolatier, Kae Shibata is no stranger to this world, having spent much of her career in some of London’s most reputed 5-star hotels. Each chocolate celebrates the unique expression of region, couverture and cocoa bean variety. With their elegance and refined taste, these are without question the best chocolates I’ve tasted. The latest venture of Kae Shibata, Sven Britt-Hanson and Daniela Nunzi-Mihranian will send your tastebuds to a whole new level.

Click & Grow

The past 12 months have been… yes, we won’t even go there. While 99% of the population took up making banana bread, those with gardens decided to plant flowers and herbs – how successful they were is another story. While we weren’t all lucky enough to have an outdoor space to unwind, Click & Grow has brought the greenery to us. This revolutionary technology is like an indoor greenhouse, allowing you to grow seed to plant or flower in as little as two weeks. Tried and tested, we can happily swear by it.

La Marzocco Linea Mini

Routine is so important, and it starts from the moment we wake up and begin our day. I’ve been a huge coffee fan for years and tested many machines – but my preference has always led me to a craft Italian producer called La Marzocco. The Linea Mini is based on their classic machine which is used and accoladed by thousands of top baristas across the planet. Having that same technology be a part of your in-home ritual gives you a sense of quality kickstarts each day on top form. It’s not often I have an emotional bond with a kitchen appliance, but this is the exception. With custom panels, auto turn-on via your phone app and an array of other benefits to make your life easier and your coffee better, this is the top machine on the market. Welcome to the espresso revolution.

Parks Candles

There’s just something about the way Parks create their candles that makes me feel so wholesome and comforted. Whether I’m working from home and need a boost of energy, in the bath and want to melt into pure relaxation or just want a background scent that keeps my cortisol levels down and my serotonin up – they’ve got it all. My personal favourites are Feu de Bois, Amber, Tobacco & Leather and of course Bourbon & Maple – but I’m sure you’ll fall in love with something that resonates with you too.

Vitruvi Essential Oil Diffusers  

One thing I learnt by spending so much time at home in 2020 is that scent is crucial to our mental health and wellbeing. Whether it’s flowers, candles or something more permanent, we all need that little something to help make the same environment more bearable to be in. Enter, Vitruvi. Brought to us by a sibling duo of scent experts who have intertwined the world of botanicals to produce a number of essential oils to lighten up our mood, mind and day-to-day happiness. With blends, single origin and essential oil collections, there’s a heck of a lot of scents to choose from. I for one am rather excited about welcoming 2021 by enhancing more senses than my tastebuds. It’s time to let smell become an even more important part of mental health.

Phillips Hue Lighting

I was first introduced to Philips Hue about 5 years ago and it has changed my life. We often disregard just how important lighting is and the effect it has on our moods. Philips Hue hits every colour on the colour spectrum and comes in a variety of lightbulbs for existing fighting, standalone lamps and even strip lighting. You can create a variety of ambient lighting moods for waking up to give you energy, peace-time for a little midday meditation or nap time and as the evening rolls around to calm your senses and get you ready for a good night’s sleep. Their app allows you to control everything seamlessly via smart devices such as Google and Alexa and there are a plethora of in-app functions to get the most out of your tech. I cannot recommend these more highly.

Theragun PRO

Over the past year we’ve had to motivate ourselves to work out. Whether it’s a PT over zoom, going for a run each day, or joining an app where you can do crunches in your living room, exercise hasn’t (or at least shouldn’t have) stopped. The Theragun Pro is our answer to when we overdo it or just need a bit of recovery. PRO puts the power of a professional-grade treatment in the hands of everybody, delivering up to 60 lbs of no-stall force. Functions like QuietForce Technology and Active Torque Control make this the most innovative product within its category. If you’ve overdone it – Theragun will see to it. From advanced ergonomics to continuous battery life, they’ve thought about everything.

IonFlow 2.0 Signature

If there’s one thing we learnt in 2020 it’s that we really don’t like viruses. We also learnt (hopefully) how to keep a cleaner home and a clearer mind. But it’s not just about clean surfaces and a nicely made bed. More than 90% of particles in the air are smaller than PM0.1, many of which are harmful like dust, mould and viruses. IonFlow 2.0 keeps the very air we breathe pure. This air cleansing device has a 99.94% ultra-fine particle reduction, getting rid of harmful elements that surrounded us. The result is a genuinely clearer space, mindset and not to mention the countless health benefits that arise as a result. It also looks pretty damn sexy too.

Cupid’s Perfect Sparkle

Taittinger Prestige Rosé Champagne

A deeply coloured, exceptionally vibrant rosé champagne produced using top class Pinot Noir from Montagne de Reims and Les Riceys and a fair whack of Chardonnay that rounds everything out beautifully. Youthful in appeal, it’s a wine packed with bright red berry fruit with an elegant, smooth body and creamy mousse. This is no wallflower champagne. It demands attention! HN

Rathfinny Estate is located on a prime, south-facing slope in East Sussex, where world class sparkling wines are produced largely from Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier.

White & Rosé Wonders

Gran Moraine Chardonnay 2017

There’s nothing quite like a good Chardonnay to sip as you wind down in the evening and right now this beauty from Oregon is piquing our intrigue. Deriving from the Yamhill-Carlton AVA, this rich, fruity and balanced Chard is bursting with flavour and the most important thing for me in a wine like this – texture. Some people love oak, others don’t, but this has the perfect balance, making it incredibly well rounded and sumptuous. Rich, but not overpowering you can expect to taste apricot, buttery lemon, kiwis and clementines. For those who love Chardonnay, this is for you. For those who don’t, I’d dare say it will convert you. AS

Kylie Minogue, Rosé 2019

Super easy-drinking, fruity and soft, Kylie’s first wine project is still an absolute smash hit. Made from Carignan and Cabernet Sauvignon from the South of France, Kylie has manage to create a beautifully packed, pretty, pink drop that knocks it out of the park for value.

Marques de Murrieta Primer Rose 2017 

Imagine the most beautiful rosé you’ve had from Provence, something along the lines of Domaine Ott? Well, say hello to the Spanish equivalent. Honestly, it doesn’t get much better than this. Strawberries, cream and raspberries erupt from the glass and with it so much texture. You’ll often hear me harp on about that word – but for whites and rosés, texture is key for me! This is the wine to be popping the cork on when the sun shines outside (and when I want it to shine inside, too). AS

Size: 75cl
ABV: 13%
Find here: UK £29.35

Changyu Moser XV Blanc de Noir 2016

Allow us to introduce you to the first white Cabernet Sauvignon from China – and my god is it beautiful. Firstly, the vines are around 15 years old – which is pretty unheard of when it comes to rosé. The vines themselves are located in the Ningxia province with Lenz M. Moser continuing to establish his name as a pioneering force of nature for Chinese wines. Estate bottled for that final seal of quality, you can expect grapefruit peel, exotic fruits and an array of crushed raspberries and apple. Zippy and refreshing with texture – and as you know, texture is everything. AS

Romantic Red Wines

Saint Amour, Domaine Des Côtes de la Roche, Beaujolais, 2018

No date night is complete without a bottle of Saint-Amour. This vibrant, perfumed and fruity wine made with the Gamay grape hails from one of the lesser known and smallest of the ten Beaujolais ‘Crus’. It’s refreshing and lively with notes of concentrated blackcurrant and dark cherry with a whiff of wild strawberry and a slick of slate. Very easy, very pretty wine. HN

Size: 75cl
ABV: 13%
Find here: UK £11.50

Maruxa Mencia, Virgen del Galir, 2019,

Mencia is a grape that we will see exploding onto the wine scene soon as more and more people look towards lighter, crunchier, more refreshing red wines styles. Hailing most famously from Northwestern Spain, Mencia has similar strawberry and cherry-like qualities and high acidity, like Pinot Noir and Gamay, but add to the mix a touch of licorice and plum spice and a cool minerality with this one, which is made in tiny quantities by the same people responsible for the fabulous Contino Rioja. HN

Size: 75cl
ABV: 14%
Find here: UK £12.99 per bottle (£10.99 mix six).

Bolney Estate Pinot Noir 2019

Pinot Noir has garnered a reputation as the heartbreak grape as it needs contact care and attention to flourish, but when it does, it certainly gives the love back. This Pinot from Bolney Estate is light, elegant and silky, with understated notes of cherry and red plum with just the slightest hint of spice. Perfect if you’re after wine with a lighter touch and it goes perfectly with cold cuts, smoked salmon and hard, mature cheese. HN

Size: 75cl
ABV: 11.5%
Find here: UK £19.99

The McGuigan Reserve Shiraz

If a more easy-going, rich and juicy wine is what you’re after, then an Australian Shiraz will be your vinous comfort blanket. The Mcguigan Reserve Shiraz is our go-to, easy drinker thanks to its chocolatey texture and notes of blackcurrant, mint and damson conserve. Concentrated and spice, it’s a warm hug in a glass - one of the very few dry wine styles that can take chocolate and pairs perfectly with a snuggle on the sofa. HN

Mirabeau Provence Rosé Gin

When it comes to rosé my top choice for quality and value is always Mirabeau, which made me pretty god damn excited when they announced they were making a gin. While the base botanicals consist of juniper, citrus, orris root, angelica root and coriander it’s the Provençal twist containing a variety of herbs such as bay, thyme and rosemary alongside the neutral grape spirit and base distillate of Mirabeau Classic Rosé that really makes this gin stand out from the crowd. The result is a fruity and textured gin with lemon, coriander and citrus bursting with floral notes, rose petals and lavender. The story ends on a final note as those herbs add an extra kick of character to the blend. AS

Belvedere Single Estate - Smogóry Forest

Our next treat takes us to a tiny village in the far west stretches of Poland where Belvedere’s Smogóry Forest estate calls home. Mild winters and long summers result in bakers-grade Diamond Dańkowskie rye – the perfect base product for this award-winning vodka. Purposely left unfiltered to allow the flavour to continue to elevate over time, this is a vodka for those who like true craft. The single-estate gem oozes with salted caramel, cereal and a touch of honey evolve to reveal toasted bread and a hint of white pepper. AS

Gran Patron Platinum

I love a good tequila, it seems to be one of the spirits I’ve really found an appreciation for over the last few years. If I was to name one house that consistently delivers quality across its whole portfolio, my mind takes me straight to Patrón. It seems there’s a little something for everyone and while I’ll happily get my hands on a Reposado for my margarita needs (quick tip, avoid the salt rim, it ruins the drink), I love nothing more than to sip on something of premium quality. That brings me to Gran Patrón Platinum, arguably the world’s first ultra-premium tequila. With each bottle taking around 30 people to create, quality is of the utmost level. Agave is individually sourced for its rich sugar content before being harvested, triple distilled and left for 30 days in oak tanks to create pure elegance. The result is a smooth and seductive nectar of agave, orange, vanilla, lime and white peppercorns. Pure bliss if you ask me and don’t even get me started on a Mexican Martini (google it, you won’t be disappointed). AS

Highclere Castle Gin

The multi-award winning gin is distilled at England’s oldest distillery, Langley, in one of the oldest working copper gin stills dating back to the 1800’s. The result is an incredibly smooth gin, perfect for sipping over ice but also equally good in cocktail. Check out their ‘British 75’ cocktail, simple and yet stunning, it is a perfect celebration cocktail that will add the wow to your Valentine’s Day.
