January 2023 may have arrived amid promises to ditch the booze and renewed intentions to take better care of your bod.

For a bit of at-home pampering, having massage bars to hand may help ease the tensions built up by curling up on the sofa, or working out at the gym (of course).

And if you really want to push the boat out, perhaps a full spa treatment to knead out those knots is exactly what the doctor ordered?

We’ve also rounded up items that could help boost your energy, and that are alternative choices for chocoholics as well as those who miss a bit of fizz.

Lush massage bars and bath cubes


If you’re pushing yourself at the gym then feeling the twang the next day, Lush has you covered with its first foray into the world of fitness.

Give those sore muscles some TLC with one of its magnesium-packed massage bars or its ingenious Epsom salt cubes, which put an end to not quite knowing how much to pour in the bath.

FibreOne chocolate fudge brownie bars

If you find yourself craving something sweet this January after a month of indulgence, you’re not alone. Some good news – Fibre One’s chocolate brownie bars are low in calories and sugar (compared with regular brownies) but because they’re much higher in 
fibre, they fill you up for longer, too.

Off the sauce but missing that cheeky beverage to mark the end of the day? Saicho sparkling teas are steeped at low temperatures to bring out their flavour. They’re dubbed ‘an alternative to champagne or prosecco’. Served chilled in a flute whenever January demands it.
