experts 4. Meditation, sleep and resident guru practitioners
It has been around for centuries but executives are increasingly switching on to the benefi ts of the most powerful wellness tools – meditation and yoga. The cognitive benefi ts of meditation have now been clinically proven to help with sleep disorders, stress, concentration and jet lag. Refi ned, ‘non-hippie’ techniques have seen the likes of corporate giant Unilever introduce a resident meditation guru to staff development programmes. Britain’s National Health Service is also now consulting on how better to offer meditation to patients.
While yoga and meditation are still most commonly
found at destination clubs, more leading hotel spas now offer some sort of yoga, meditation or sleep therapy for high-end, time-poor business travellers and other guests. For the Bulgari Knightsbridge London, my fi rm searched for months to procure the very best yogis to participate in our 24-month schedule of classes ranging from power vinyasa to hot yoga, meditation and breathing classes.

52 5. Enzyme supplements and advanced nutrition
Traditional Chinese Medicine refers to the gut as the ‘second brain’, while popular Austrian detox clinics, which cure countless patients each year using the revered Mayer Method, created by Franz Xaver Mayr, also believe the gut to be the “root of the body.” If our insides are not working correctly,
no amount of cardio activity or fat-busting laser treatment will be effective. I myself suffered a string of digestive disorders, fl uctuating weight, IBS and heartburn until after trialing enzyme therapy products for six months, I experienced dramatic weight loss that has since stayed off; my skin was fl awless; I had healthy-looking, shiny locks; and I saw a total turnaround in my digestive pattern with almost zero effort – all due to an easy to follow diet and supplement plan. Feeling personally and professionally enlightened, I commandeered Miami-based enzyme doctor Matt Cooper to develop a supplement range for spas and health clubs. Dr Cooper has been introducing his
Natural Enzyme Therapy into the diets of A-list celebrities and star athletes and his turnkey solution offers a quick and

simple diagnosis to ensure individualised treatment for each client.

is now available and advanced testing and treatments, including nutritional, energy and vitamin drips, are also available and can be easily introduced into any spa environment.
