Alice Mackintosh

Nutritional Therapist & Founder Of Equi

“I had a baby in January and, thus far, being a mum to two boys has prevented me from getting back to the gym. Now I have more time, I’d love some new workout gear. The Outnet has some great adidas by Stella McCartney pieces. I’ve also been lusting after a morning serum to give my tired skin a boost. I’ve heard great things about Dr Anita Sturnham’s Protect Elixir from her brand Decree. It’s three serums in one and is rich in hyaluronic acid, so I know it’ll save me time when rushing in the morning. I’ll be using this alongside my own brand’s new Collagen Edition for a lit-from-within glow. Lastly, I need some cookware. Regular, non-stick pans can leach toxic chemicals, but Our Place has clean technology and I love how functional and pretty its pans are.”

Charlotte Townend

Founder Of Wylder

“I love Eym candles – they’re 100% natural, smell divine and are refillable so you can use the gorgeous, hand-blown bowl time and again. I would also love to find a Free People onesie under the tree – I’m a huge Free People fan and the Good Karma onesie is both stylish and practical. I live in trainers, so adidas Originals are at the top of my trainer list – I love this colourful pair. I’m also asking for a new yoga mat – we use Hercule Studio’s mats on our retreats and the brand is about to launch a wavy mat with extra grip, which sounds perfect for January workouts.”

Ella Mills

Founder Of Deliciously Ella

“I’m a skincare junkie and obsessed with anything that delivers an instant glow. Nothing beats Sarah Chapman’s Moisture Infusion 3D Sheet Masks. I’d like a top-up of Esse’s Repair Oil – it’s the best thing for winter skin. I’d also love a pair of Lululemon Align leggings, which really are the best leggings out there, as well as an Our Place pot in sage. I have the frying pan and use it every day – it’s the best thing in my kitchen.”

Giselle La Pompe-Moore

Author, Artist & Speaker

“Music is medicinal and has the power to create moments of meaning and make a ceremony out of the everydayness of our lives – to me, this is what wellness is all about. Marshall’s headphones are on my wishlist – they’ll accompany me on supermarket tips and walks in the park, as well as bedtime meditations. I’m also asking for a bottle of my signature scent, Tom Ford’s Tubereuse Nue. While the benefits of essential oils speak for themselves, they tend to collect dust on my bedside table, whereas a scent you love will never fail to bring you back to yourself when you’re feeling out of balance. Finally, I’m giving Rebecca Moore’s Breath Practice Cards to all my friends – I’m all for simple, practical exercises that make self-care accessible.”

Imogen Little

Craniosacral Therapist & Founder Of Heal & Now

“We are very fortunate to be spending Christmas in Indonesia this year and will be visiting our friends’ dive resort, Blue Marlin Dive on Gili Trawangan. I love Tropic of C for its sexy, practical and sustainable one-pieces, which are perfect for swimming, diving and water sports. I’m also hoping to receive some Astier de Villatte incense sticks. My husband took me to Castello di Reschio in Italy for my birthday this summer, and they burn this incense in the lobby. Smell is so evocative – I’d love to find this in my stocking. I also wouldn’t say no to a spa day at Heckfield Place – its Wildsmith range is idyllic.”

Kim Pearson

Nutritionist

“I’ve been wearing adidas Boosts for years since a friend at a running magazine introduced me to them – they’re my go-to running shoe. My current pair need replacing, so I’m putting these Stella McCartney Boosts on my Christmas list. A silk pillowcase is also up there. Anyone who knows me well knows that I love to sleep, and this Drowsy cream version is the perfect upgrade. I’m also religious about filtering my water, and am eyeing up Zero Water’s Filtration Jug, as well as getting in my daily dose of superfoods – a pouch of Haskapa’s antioxidant-rich berry powder in my stocking would be lovely.”

Laura Dodd

Founder Of The Yoga Class

“My favourite wellbeing ritual is an infrared sauna, and Higher Dose’s Infrared Sauna Blanket is the dream gift. A blow-the-budget wishlist item, it’ll boost mood, reduce stress, promote glowing skin and aid detoxification all from the comfort of my bedroom. I also love Nagnata activewear – its colourful, knitted pieces can be worn in and out of the studio – and hope to be given a top-up of The Nue Co’s Sleep supplement. Sleep is a priority of mine for 2024, as without restful sleep we can feel a rise in anxiety, lack of productivity and low mood.”

Louisa Drake

PT & Founder Of The Louisa Drake Method

“This year, I’ll be dropping heavy hints for a pair of Vuori boyfriend joggers. Vuori does the softest activewear made with recycled fabrics, and these joggers are perfect for walking, working out and lounging. I’d also be very happy opening anything from Aery, a plant-based, sustainable wellness brand, but I especially have my eye on the Nordic Fireside candle, a blend of smoked musk and birch. Finally, I’m asking for a top-up of Phyto Nectars powders, which are packed with the best ingredients to support immunity and mental focus.”
