Emily English curates a nourishing menu for Elounda’s Elies Beach House

Bringing her signature “food you want to eat, designed by a nutritionist” philosophy to Crete, Emily English has created an exclusive seasonal menu for Elies Beach House, located within the Elounda Peninsula and Porto Elounda Golf & Spa resorts.

The menu is playful and health-conscious without feeling restricted, featuring dishes like the Protein Power Bowl, the Glow Bowl and Greek Yoghurt Ice Cream Sundaes. For families, there are wholegrain chicken nuggets and hidden vegetable pasta, while adult diners can enjoy Seared Tuna with Romesco, Grilled Fish Tacos and Emily’s take on the classic club sandwich with avocado mayo and organic eggs.

Balanced and nourishing with a distinctly Greek soul, it is exactly the kind of food you want to eat on holiday and still feel great afterwards.

Ishara unveils a reimagined Aya Spa in the heart of the Masai Mara

Set among the trees in Kenya’s Masai Mara Reserve, the newly expanded Aya Spa at Ishara redefines the safari wellness experience. Designed to reconnect guests with nature through sensory immersion and stillness, the new spa features Nordic-inspired thermal rituals, hydrotherapy, heated pools and treatment rooms overlooking the savannah.

The experience is as much about grounding as it is about healing. Think organic forest scrubs, Vichy shower rituals mimicking falling rain and multi-day wellness journeys that weave in local plant medicine and energy work. Named after the word for “miracle” or “beautiful,” Aya Spa is both a sanctuary and a statement in holistic hospitality.

SWIISH brings its results-driven wellness range to a global audience

With a feel-good aesthetic and a loyal community, Swiish proves that wellness can be both stylish and serious.

ARTAH launches Essential Creatine to support energy, hormones and brain health

New from ARTAH, Essential Creatine is a powerful daily supplement formulated to support physical energy, cognitive clarity and whole-body vitality. Priced at £28 and available from 11 June, it uses ultra-pure Creavitalis® micronised creatine monohydrate, third-party tested for safety and efficacy.

Long misunderstood as a supplement for gym-goers, creatine is now gaining attention for its broader health benefits, particularly for women. ARTAH’s formulation supports ovulation, mood, PMS, perimenopause and menopause while helping to combat stress and sleep deprivation.

It is also an excellent addition for plant-based diets, which typically contain little to no creatine. Developed under the guidance of ARTAH founder and nutritionist Rhian Stephenson, it is one of the cleanest and most effective creatine options on the market today.

Created specifically for teenagers, it blends organic cacao, coconut milk and sugar with functional mushrooms and essential vitamins to support calm, focus and resilience.

Vegan, gluten free and filler free, it is as real and practical as wellness gets. “I created this because I’ve lived it,” says Gemma. “I wanted to make something that helps teens care for themselves physically and emotionally, with ingredients they can trust.”
