Check out our curation of the latest news in wellness this month.

Stylish adventures

Get ready to hike with The North Face ’s new collection of outdoor wear. The Adventure Trail series equips you for exploring the wilderness, with windbreakers that guard against the chill day and night, sweat-wicking shorts and waterproof hiking shoes that provide support across a variety of terrain. Meanwhile, trail runners can give themselves a competitive edge with the Summit Run IKB Peak Series’ professional gear, which includes a lightweight, packable waterproof jacket and trainers that deliver stability, superior grip and cushioning.

Naturally beautiful

Bali’s Revivo Wellness Resort offers a natural skincare experience in partnership with sustainable Balinese cosmetics brand Fields of Yarrow , whose range is formulated with organic ingredients sourced from across Indonesia. Choose from six new facials according to your needs: whether boosting hydration, improving uneven skin texture or healing acne scars, all will ensure your skin is cleansed thoroughly and treated with care.

Totally blessed

Both Raffles properties in Cambodia have introduced wellness options that’ll restore your body and mind. Raffles Grand Hotel d’Angkor in Siem Reap has launched a mindfulness ritual that begins with a monk’s sacred blessing before using Tibetan sound therapy to bring total relaxation. Meanwhile, Raffles Hotel Le Royal in Phnom Penh has launched a spa and tea set package, including a bespoke 60-minute facial followed by a Royal Afternoon Tea served in the sumptuous surroundings of the Elephant Bar or Writer’s Bar.

A spring in your step

Banyan Tree has opened its first property in Japan, set in the forested foothills of Kyoto and neighboured by enchanting temples. At the Kengo Kuma-designed Banyan Tree Higashiyama Kyoto , rest in the cypress wood-accented, tatami-floored comfort of rooms with an in-room private onsen overlooking the onsite bamboo garden. Book a signature Banyan Tree Spa treatment (ranging from oil massages to gentle stretching) in tranquil treatment rooms that feature an onsen and steam sauna.
