Ecoffee Cup is sturdy but light, it has a resealable \u2018drip proof\u2019 lid for easy storage in bags, and it is fully dishwasher safe. Bamboo is naturally sterile and so it doesn\u2019t flavour-taint drinks, unlike some other reusables, making it the ideal choice for the hurried coffee-on-the-go commute. It also works to brighten up your train journey or your desk at home or work!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Ecoffee Cup offers a wide range of vibrant designs to suit all tastes; from block colours, striped or spotted, to geometric, feather or floral patterns. The very special William Morris collection (right) will make a unique gift for any interiors, art, or design lovers this Christmas, with 14oz cups priced at only \u00a311.95.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">With over 100 billion single use coffee cups going to landfill every year globally the Ecoffee Cup is the perfect choice for those looking for gifts with a conscience.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">A huge number of British tea and coffee drinkers still believe that single use cups from coffee chains are recyclable. Sadly, the plastic or wax linings used to make the cups waterproof make the separation process very complicated, so the vast majority end up in landfill. Today, many coffee shops and cafes across the UK are already offering customers discounts on their hot drinks to incentivise the use of reusables, which means that the gift of an Ecoffee Cup this Christmas will be saving the British coffee consuming public money, as well as reducing their plastic footprint!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Tackling the ever-growing problem of single-use packaging waste while simultaneously providing a stylish, practical reusable cup for the coffee-consuming public, Ecoffee Cup, has set up the #stopthe100billion campaign in an attempt to raise awareness of the waste issue, educate the public and effect real change in the way we consume takeaway products.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">For more information visit: https:\/\/ecoffeecup.co.uk\/<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-383964 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/brexx.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"630\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/brexx.jpg 615w, https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/brexx-55x55.jpg 55w, https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/brexx-293x300.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 615px) 100vw, 615px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">62% of Consumers Fear the loss of Exotic Fruits in Retail<br \/>\n\u2022 Post-Brexit, the top 3 goods consumers fear will be harder to buy are exotic fruits, wine and luxury goods!<br \/>\n\u2022 Consumers less interested in the availability of meat, clothes and electronics!<br \/>\n\u2022 HOWEVER, 64% of consumers feel proud of British retailers and the services they offer.<br \/>\n\u2022 A further 55% believe British retailers will help the country to withstand the economic uncertainty of Brexit.<br \/>\nAs bonfire embers settle across Britain, the countdown to Christmas begins and suddenly, we begin to think about what to buy.<br \/>\nProducts to purchase are seemingly endless, infinite opportunities at our fingertips \u2013 yet Online British marketplace, Onbuy.com has uncovered a report by Barclays that claims UK consumers are masking a fear: what if one day, we can\u2019t access all that we want?<br \/>\nThe historic decision by the UK to leave the EU has generated huge uncertainty over the short and long-term outlook for the economy \u2013 not least within the retail sector. It is this uncertainty that is likely to bear down on economic activity and consumer demand. In fact, the products British consumers most fear will become difficult to purchase include: exotics fruits (62%), wine (55%), luxury goods (42%) and cheese (40%.)<br \/>\nIt isn\u2019t just availability that is causing concern either. Per the release, Retail Sales, Great Britain 2017 we can see that store price inflation is on the rise too and these are the stores due to be affected:<br \/>\n\u2756 Predominantly food stores, 2.8% inflation. \u2756 Predominantly non-food stores, 3% inflation. \u2756 Non-specialised stores, 2.2% inflation. \u2756 Textile, clothing and footwear stores, 3.3% inflation. \u2756 Household goods stores, 3.5% inflation. \u2756 Other stores, 2.6% inflation. \u2756 Non-store retailing, 3.5% inflation. \u2756 Fuel stores, 6% inflation.<br \/>\nHOWEVER, it appears British spirit knows no true fear \u2013 as consumers push through with optimism.<br \/>\n55% of the public believe British retailers will support the economy to withstand the uncertainty of Brexit, and a further 64% of consumers feel proud of British retailers and the services they offer. A majority even expect the quality of goods to improve.<br \/>\nPress Information for Immediate Release Onbuy.com<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Additionally, Brexit could create an opportunity for retailers to think about how they can capitalise on the global demand for British-made goods \u2013 adequately padding out Christmas stockings the world over.<br \/>\nManaging director of Onbuy.com, Cas Paton comments:<br \/>\n\u201cThe very fact that UK consumers are most concerned about the loss of luxury goods, such as exotic fruits and wine, proves the frivolous nature of the British spirit. At our core, we are confident in retailers up and down the country and we know high-quality goods will come our way no matter the Brexit outcome.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Notes to editors: Please see the infographic for visual representation of the goods UK consumers fear will be difficult to purchase following Brexit.

Support British Craftmanship Many of the products made in Britain are finished by hand, using skills that have been passed on through generations \u2013 think woodworking, glass blowing, weaving and knitting.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">2. Invest in Quality British products may cost more than the mass-produced, but because they are often of a higher quality the cost-per-use or wear is much lower. You will therefore invest in a gift that lasts.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">3. Buy Unique Products manufactured in the UK are usually produced on a much smaller scale, so a Britishmade gift will be unlike any gift your intended is likely to receive.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">4. Leave a Small Footprint Ever thought about how mass-produced, foreign products make it from the factory to the shop floor? Often, flown here from the other side of the world, these products leave a large carbon footprint in their wake \u2013 shopping British may be kinder to the environment.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">5. Celebrate British Employment Why pay for goods that have been manufactured overseas, when you can help boost the British economy by supporting their workers?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">6. Nurture Home-Grown Talent Many UK designers struggling to find work in larger corporations set up their own brands to fulfil their passions. By buying their products, you are helping to keep the British retail market innovative and vibrant.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">7. Add a Local Touch What\u2019s more exciting than giving a gift where you know its provenance and the story behind its creation? In keeping your gifts local, you are not only supporting your community but buying an item loaded with character.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">8. Preserve British Manufacturing In uncertain times, actively seeking a gift made in Britain will help to keep the skill of British manufacturing alive and in demand. An increasing demand by consumers for items made in the UK will encourage retailers to invest in British, which only serves to benefit us all.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Log Storage from ACR Stoves:<br \/>\nCombining Cosiness with Convenience<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">How do you combine your need for a New Year decluttering with keeping your house warm in the Winter months?

South Africa is very likely to win.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">When it comes to the world\u2019s biggest rugby nations, it would be easy to assume that the most fanatical supporters would be in the old guard countries of international rugby. England, New Zealand and South Africa all come to mind but few can rival the passion and energy of African rugby.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">In a continent known for great footballing nations, the oval ball has been Africa\u2019s best kept love affair for decades and one that continues to blossom. The number of registered players on the continent jumped up from 770 000 to over a million in the last year alone. In 2013, World Rugby\u2019s \u201cGet Into Rugby\u201d initiative attracted 22 000 players, in 2017, that number was 384 000. The number of female rugby players in Africa has seen a 50% increase between 2016 and 2017. In 2017, 20% of rugby players in Africa are women and girls.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">These numbers are echoed by the real passion and dedication of African rugby fans across the continent. Madagascar is a perfect illustration of this passion. With rugby as their national sport, they have more rugby clubs per capita than any other country with 160 Rugby clubs in the capital city alone. This surge of interest seems likely to continue with 22 000 schools now including rugby in their curriculums across Africa, up from 20 000 in 2016. Africa is rapidly becoming the world\u2019s largest youth pool with 60% of the continent\u2019s population under the age of 24 and that number is predicted to grow.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">With South Africa likely to be announced as the host for the 2023 Rugby World Cup this week and the African Gold cup in 2018, the profile of African rugby has never been higher and the continent\u2019s governing body for rugby is rising to the occasion.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">As a result of this spotlight and Africa\u2019s huge potential for the sport, World Rugby\u2019s African association, Rugby Africa has partnered up with Africa\u2019s leading media relations consulting firm, the APO Group. The partnership was formalised by APO Group\u2019s CEO, Nicolas Pompigne-Mognard and The Chairman of Rugby Africa, Abdelaziz Bougja at the World Rugby\u2019s annual executive council meeting in London on November 12th 2017.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">\\\\ CHRISTMAS GIFTING \/\/<\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">We\u2019ve got you covered for the best Christmas gift ideas, for all ages and price ranges.<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-383946 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/cid_image003_png@01D35C92.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"433\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/cid_image003_png@01D35C92.png 615w, https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/cid_image003_png@01D35C92-300x211.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 615px) 100vw, 615px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">From wireless headphones, and Bluetooth trackers to aromatherapy diffusers and Star Wars robots; there\u2019s something for everyone!

The devices are non-invasive, drug free and have shown great success not only for day to day anxiety and stress, for cravings, to promote restful sleep, deal with anger, and help us to focus and therefore increase performance.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">What a great holiday gift! Who wouldn\u2019t want your significant other, close friends, family members and even kids more relaxed and less stressed? This is the gift that keeps on giving throughout the year as everyday pressures, workloads, social situations, and family dynamics (not to mention reading the news!) create stress on an ongoing basis. It beats a bottle or two of wine which would likely be good only for one evening.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The original TOUCHPOINTS&#x2122; work with an app and have six settings; the new, basic model has three settings and does not require an app, making it easier for children with ADHD or autism to use them in school or elsewhere more easily. Parents and teachers both rave about their effectiveness. TOUCHPOINTS&#x2122; basic and original are available at www.ilovetouchpoints.com and numerous other e-tailers and are reasonably priced to make them accessible, one of the goals of the company\u2019s founders, Dr. Amy Serin and Vicki Mayo.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">www.thetouchpointsolution.com<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Elevate her beauty with all natural fresh skin care that hydrates and glamorises.<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-383930 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/regg.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"410\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/regg.jpg 615w, https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/regg-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 615px) 100vw, 615px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Indulge her in a 4-part beauty regimen by NOW by sml.

Actually, you can get a double win with Divino Classic Education: it is fun and educational.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The InTouch Rugby team needs Apps that will challenge and entertain. The developers of this iOS app are providing Divino &#8211; Classic Education for free with optional in-app purchases for hints.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Download it at the App Store and include a pack of 500 hints for $1.99.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/app\/divino-classical-edition\/id1176724988?ls=1&#038;mt=8<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The development of the Divino Classical Edition app was inspired by a variety of dinner conversations after busy games of rugby. Topics of discussion in one evening included the Sword of Damocles, Special Relativity, Las Meninas, Ada Lovelace, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Jack London and Fibonacci Numbers. The next evening the topics flipped to the Higgs Boson, the Odyssey, the Samothrace Temple, Jack Kerouac, Macbeth, Minkowski Space and Schr\u00f6dinger&#8217;s Cat. If you have been on the periphery of one of these conversations, wouldn\u2019t you have just loved to join in the conversation?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Kids who play this family-friendly app will become motivated to augment their rugby obsession with visits to art museums, reading beloved classic books, adding mythological references to conversations or retaking the SAT with new-found vocabulary knowledge. The possibilities are limitless.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The App includes Easter Eggs &#8211; interesting stories to pepper into conversation or to entertain kids or adults of any age.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The six free categories are Greek Mythology, Literature, Latin, Science, Geography and Art. It is the educational alternative to hours of mindless matching games.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Imagine the surprise when your 12-year old correctly references the Greek king, Sisyphus, by name when you mention that a task is like rolling a boulder up a hill for eternity? Or that Ceasar said his famous words, \u201cVeni, vidi, vici\u201d after defeating King Pharnaces II and then immediately returned to Cleopatra\u2019s side? Or that the citizens of Monaco are not allowed to enter the Monte Carlo casino? Or that the movie \u201cShe\u2019s the Man\u201d, starring Amanda Bynes and Channing Tatum, is actually an adaptation of Skakespeare\u2019s &#8220;Twelfth Night\u201d? Or that Hedy Lamarr, the actress, developed and patented the technology that is used for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth? Or that the model for Botticelli\u2019s \u201cBirth of Venus\u201d painting was likely a cousin-in-law of Amerigo Vespucci, the explorer for whom America was named?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Hugomatica LLC<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">NOW That\u2019s What I Call Music! 98<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-383922 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/cid_image002_jpg@01D35D24.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"255\" height=\"255\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/cid_image002_jpg@01D35D24.jpg 255w, https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/cid_image002_jpg@01D35D24-55x55.jpg 55w, https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/cid_image002_jpg@01D35D24-144x144.jpg 144w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 255px) 100vw, 255px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">RRP: Under \u00a315.00<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Cat no: CDNOW98<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Barcode: 889854244125<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Link: https:\/\/www.nowmusic.com\/album\/now-98\/<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Image: https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/sh\/j256cxzpaof6p2u\/AAD6roSEw5R0bAHmjUW90UrSa?dl=0<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">As we hurtle towards the monumental heights of NOW 100, NOW That\u2019s What I Call Music has released NOW 98, their final numbered album of the year.

As people become increasingly aware of how unhealthy habits and lifestyle can significantly increase the risks of illness, including heart disease, diabetes and cancer, there has been an increase in preventative health holidays to keep your well-being in check. Medi-spas usually involving a comprehensive health check-up, counselling and spa therapies are advancing to cater to disease prevention.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Top 3 Destinations: Palacio Estoril Preventative Health (Portugal), Kurotel Healthy Longevity (Brazil), The Farm Heart Health &amp; Stress Reduction (Philippines)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Architectural Wellness<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">A growing trend in the wellness industry[2], \u2018wellness architecture\u2019 is reshaping the luxury travel sector, providing spaces that are not only structurally beautiful, but also comfortable, functional and sustainable. With guest welfare at the forefront, more \u2018healthy-for-human\u2019 hotels are emerging, where both the design and materials used address the physical and mental health of the people inside. This includes \u2018living\u2019 buildings, with greenery that grows inside, and design that encourages human movement and mindfulness.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Top 3 Destinations: Aro Ha (New Zealand), Soneva Kiri (Thailand), Santani Wellness Resort (Sri Lanka)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Food as Medicine<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">A worrying 7 in 10 people take prescription medication[3], and this unhealthy pill-popping culture has led to an awareness of the need to replace pharmaceuticals with more natural remedies. We\u2019re now seeing a growing trend towards \u2018food as medicine\u2019, with more people ditching the drugs in favour of treating their ailments with the right nutrients. This has also led to an increase in nutrition-friendly holidays, where guests can discover the best diet for their body type and health concerns.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Top 3 Destinations: SHA Wellness Clinic (Spain), Samahita Candida Detox (Thailand), Sianji Master Detox (Turkey)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Break-up Breaks<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Contrary to the belief that holidays are reserved for celebratory events such as honeymoons and anniversaries, more people are planning wellness holidays following the breakdown of a relationship. The stress and anxiety caused by major life changes like divorce, lead many individuals on a solo wellness trip, in order to tap into the transformative power of travel. Retreats are responding to this growing trend, with an array of emotional healing therapies, stress management and life coaching services.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Top 3 Destinations: Phuket Cleanse (Thailand), Kamalaya Embracing Change (Thailand), BodyHoliday September Solos (St Lucia)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Mindful Movement<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Mindfulness has been a major buzzword in the wellness world over the last few years, and 2018 is set to be the year of \u2018mindful movement\u2019. With increased awareness of the connection between the mind and body, a shift towards mindful exercise is occurring, bringing attention and focus to one\u2019s workout, whilst reaping the physical and psychological benefits of exercise. Next year will see a significant emergence of such workouts, as well as more retreats offering wellness programmes with equal focus on being active and mindful.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Top 3 Destinations: Marbella Club Mindful Triathlon (Spain), Epic Sana Mindfulness Retreat (Portugal), Shreyas Silent Retreat (India)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Technology for Wellness<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">It will come as no surprise that in this tech-dependent digital age, one of the biggest trends in the wellness industry is still technology. Spa and fitness technology has become increasingly sophisticated, with traditional treatments and activities being adapted to enhance results using technical approaches, from measuring your body composition to high-tech anti-aging medi-spa treatments. Despite the growing awareness of the need for regular \u2018digital detoxing\u2019, technological advances in wellness will only continue to accelerate to meet consumer demands.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Top 3 Destinations: Six Senses Douro Valley Integrated Wellness (Portugal), Longevity Medical Spa (Portugal), SHA Rejuvenation (Spain)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Skip Gen Holidays<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">While last year we saw a rising trend for family and \u2018multi-generational\u2019 holidays; 2018 is set to be the year of \u2018skip-gen\u2019 trips, where grandparents take grandchildren on once-in-a-lifetime holidays, leaving parents behind. The reason for this shift can be attributed to the fact that the baby boomer generation are now retiring, with their top priorities being family and travel. Skip-gen holidays combine the two, providing the opportunity for major milestones such as graduations and special birthdays to be celebrated in style.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Top 3 Destinations: Zighy Bay (Oman), Sun Gardens Dubrovnik (Croatia), Kamalaya (Thailand)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Happy Retreats<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">According to recent studies, experiences, not things, make us happy[4]; therefore, it\u2019s no surprise that people are investing more on satisfying their wanderlust than buying material goods. English author Leigh Hunt writes, \u201cThe groundwork of all happiness is good health\u201d and in the same vein, health resorts are highlighting the importance of wellness to achieve joyful bliss. Activities like morning hikes and beach circuit training all foster the production of serotonin (the \u2018happy hormone\u2019) and the likes of laughter yoga, smile-asanas and inner-smile meditation will soon fill your retreat schedule.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Top 3 Destinations: The Mind Coaching Retreat at MacDonald Monchique (Portugal), SwaSwara (India), Shanti Maurice De-stress (Mauritius)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8216;Now Age&#8217; Holidays<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Not shying away from the mystical world, more wellness retreats are beginning to tap into the healing powers of spirituality. The eclectic new-age practices of the 70\u2019s are alive and flourishing in the \u2018now\u2019 society, with the integration of holistic or alternative healing therapies to modern western medicine. From crystal and energy healing, to reiki and light therapy, wellness retreats are bringing these unconventional healing techniques to achieve harmony of the mind, body and spirit.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Top 3 Destinations: Lefay SPA (Italy), Fusion Maia (Vietnam), Ocean Soul Holistic Retreat (Bali)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Community Wellness<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The wellness tourism industry is placing an emphasis on social responsibility and are starting to take steps to \u2018pay it forward\u2019 and give back to their communities. From championing locally-made commodities, supporting farmers by procuring home-grown harvests to arranging community exercises to nearby villages, schools or orphanages, resorts are spreading the essence of wellness to those who need it. The rise of \u2018eco-tourism\u2019 complements these humanitarian efforts with a focus on community, environmental preservation and self-sustainability.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Top 3 Destinations: The Retreat (Costa Rica), Shreyas Joy of Giving (India), SwaSwara (India)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Health DNA Testing<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">In recent years, personalisation has been taking the wellness industry by storm, with consumers increasingly demanding tailor-made fitness programmes and spa treatments to accelerate results. Taking this one step further, people can now discover the role their genes play in their overall well-being with the emerging science of DNA testing. More spas and retreats now offer DNA analysis and consultations, to really tailor guests\u2019 treatment plans to their health needs, and determine any predispositions they might have to certain types of diet, exercise and lifestyle choices.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Top 3 Destinations: BodyHoliday BodyScience (St Lucia), SHA Rejuvenation (Spain), Longevity Wellness Booster (Portugal)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Healthy Ageing Population<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">It\u2019s no secret that we\u2019re living longer, but want to look and feel younger, resulting in a boom of healthy-aging holidays to help maintain a youthful glow. Already highly popular with the Baby Boomer generation, the appeal of healthy-aging holidays are also rising in popularity with millennials; the oldest of whom are now in their mid-thirties! From collagen facials and vitamin C injections to non-surgical facelifts and menopause relief, spas and health retreats are offering consumers the opportunity to help slow down the clock.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Top 3 Destinations: Forte Village Anti-Aging (Sardinia), Divani Apollon Rejuvenation (Greece), Santani Anti-Ageing (Sri Lanka)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">For advice, guidance and booking visit www.healthandfitnesstravel.com or call 0203 397 8891<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Accessorize!<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">http:\/\/uk.accessorize.com\/view\/blog\/the-best-ever-luxury-christmas-gifts-for-your-bffs-9396<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-383916 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/aa.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"378\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/aa.jpg 615w, https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/aa-300x184.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 615px) 100vw, 615px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">We all need to look after our PCs to get the most out of them.
