Hackney Health & Beauty

Xochi Balfour is quickly becoming the face of millennial healing in London, working with clients in their twenties and thirties who need coping strategies for stress and burnout. Xochi meets with clients at her home for one to two sessions and uses a range of techniques customized to individual needs. Through anything from guided chakra meditation and sound healing to nutritional and skincare advice, she helps her clients develop their own personal toolkit for wellness and sets them on their way.

This ever-expanding chain of yoga studios features a massive, nylon, blow-up, womb-like pod inside of which the classes take place. This may all sound a little strange, but the effect inside is totally relaxing. The Vinyasa Flow classes here are perfect for mid-level yogis in that they're not so challenging as to scare you off, but they're hard enough to provide a great, cleansing workout and a deep sense of relaxation at the end. There are pods in Notting Hill and Brixton, too.
