Smart Watches
Gone are the days when your watch just told you the time! Smartwatches are a window into your health and also provide a convenient means of communication. Arguably the most personal piece of technology you can buy, it is important to choose the right device for your needs and lifestyle.
Apple Watch
When it comes to smartwatches, the Apple Watch is widely considered to be the best smartwatch available, but is only compatible with Apple products. The Apple Watch helps to monitor your health and fitness goals, with a customisable watch face displaying everything from time, weather and UV levels to step count, heart rate and daily progress.
Samsung Galaxy Watch
Android users can enjoy the perks of the Samsung Galaxy Watch range. Available in a variety of colours and designs, these smartwatches also include lots of fitness and health tracking features, including support monitoring for many different exercises. We love this gold version – ooh la la!
Fitness Trackers
Similar to smartwatches, fitness trackers help track all of your daily activities and have been proven to increase physical activity by an average of 2000 steps per day, making them a great gift for anyone who needs a little push.

Nintendo Switch
Keeping fit and healthy shouldn’t feel like a chore, with gaming consoles, including the Nintendo Switch, bringing the fun when it comes to fitness.
The Nintendo Switch Ring Fit Adventure is where working out and play combine, with players setting out on a fitness-filled quest, where they must jog in place to traverse grass-swept plains, do overhead shoulder presses to attack enemies, and strike yoga poses to refill their health meter. And the kids will love it, too.
SodaStream And Breville Juice Fountain
Prioritising your fitness is one thing, but ensuring your body is being adequately nourished is another. With summer just around the corner, opt for an ice-cold homemade beverage, such as a fresh juice or soda water and lime, rather than a preservative-filled, store-bought option. SodaStream's Art Sparkling Water Maker turns water into sparkling water in seconds, while products like the Breville Juice Fountain Cold Plus allow you to share your creations with the whole family, featuring a two-litre capacity so you can produce multiple servings of vitamin-rich nectar.
NutriBullet
With a range of blenders and juicers that work to extract maximum nutrients from your favourite fruits and veggies for a healthier lifestyle, the extensive NutriBullet range just keeps getting bigger and better. Treat yourself to a breakfast smoothie made from frozen banana, a handful of spinach and a splash of coconut water, or quickly puree your child’s favourite steamed fruits and vegetables into a delicious consistency that your little one will love. Keeping healthy has never been easier.
Ellia Relax Ultrasonic Essential Oil Diffuser
After a hard day of working and working out, relax and unwind in a calming home environment by treating yourself to a diffuser. Add a little luxury into your everyday life with scents of citronella, lavender and lemongrass, while different designs and finishes, including ceramic and cordless diffusers, allow you to find the perfect fit for your desired space.
The Ellia Relax Ultrasonic Essential Oil Diffuser is a top seller with its simple design and neutral gray tones complementing any decor, with a mist delivery of up to six hours continuously or 12 hours intermittently.
