I’ve always believed wellness should feel as good as a new pair of diamond studs—effortless, indulgent, and entirely yours. This year, 2025, has brought some health and wellness trends that I can’t get enough of, blending luxury with intention in the chicest way. From high-tech recovery to nature-inspired rituals, here are my favorites that keep me glowing inside and out.


First up, cryotherapy facials are everywhere, and I’m obsessed. A quick session at a spot like Cryo NYC leaves my skin tight and radiant—like I’ve had a full night’s sleep, even if I haven’t. The cold blast boosts circulation, and I swear it’s better than any highlighter. Next, I’ve been loving adaptogenic lattes. These aren’t your average coffee shop drinks—think mushroom blends like reishi or ashwagandha, which I get from Four Sigmatic. They’re creamy, calming, and keep my stress in check without a caffeine crash.



Green Forestry reflected by water

Forest bathing has also stolen my heart. It’s not just a walk in the woods—it’s a full sensory reset. I’ve been escaping to places like Mohonk Mountain House for guided sessions, breathing in the pine and letting the green wash over me. It’s grounding in a way that feels almost magical. It's made me so happy to discover this other world within such a short distance of NYC!


Finally, I can’t stop talking about sound baths. I first discovered them during a yoga class that integrated crystal bowls into savasana—I was hooked the moment those vibrations washed over me. Now, a session at The Sound Space is my go-to. The frequencies melt tension, and I leave feeling like I’ve been reset on a cellular level. These trends aren’t just fads; they’re rituals that make wellness feel luxurious and personal. Which one’s calling you? Live bright.


Luxurious tub in bathroom


I’ve been to some of the world’s best spas—my most recent relaxing getaway was to The Park Hotel Vitznau serenity with views to die for—but sometimes, the ultimate luxury is right at home. Turning your bathroom into a luxe retreat doesn’t take a full remodel; it’s about small, intentional touches that make you feel pampered every time you step in. Here’s how I’ve transformed mine into a sanctuary that rivals any five-star escape.


Start with the lighting. Harsh fluorescents are a mood-killer—swap them for soft, warm bulbs or a dimmable CB2 sconce that casts a golden glow. I added a small Himalayan salt lamp for that extra spa-like warmth; it’s a game-changer for evening soaks. Next, invest in plush towels—think thick, hotel-quality ones in crisp white or a soft taupe. Parachute Home has some that feel like a hug after a bath.


Scent is everything. I keep a Diptyque Baies candle on the counter—its blackcurrant and rose notes make the air feel expensive. For a budget-friendly alternative, a few drops of lavender essential oil in a diffuser work wonders. Add a touch of nature with a small potted plant—eucalyptus or a fern thrives in the humidity and looks effortlessly chic. I’ve got a tiny vase of fresh eucalyptus next to my sink; the scent is pure calm.


Don’t skimp on the details. A sleek tray to hold your products—like a marble one from West Elm—keeps things tidy and elevated. I decant my bath salts into a glass jar; it’s a small step that feels indulgent. And music—always. A waterproof Bluetooth speaker playing soft jazz or a spa playlist sets the tone; I swear by my Bose.


Finally, make it a ritual. Run a hot bath, add a Lush bath bomb, and let the world melt away. My bathroom’s become my escape—no plane ticket needed. What’s your luxe touch? Live bright.
