7 Wonders of wellness.
Kiss House is all about building better so that people can live better.
We believe that well planned spaces filled with natural light and clean air are essential for wellbeing, and that your home should be your sanctuary. However we can’t fail to agree with American Philosopher Jim Rohn who takes the idea of “home” a stage further with:
“Take care of your body, it’s the only place you have to live in.”
Inspired by his sentiment we’ve compiled a list of our 7 Wonders of Wellness: 7 of our favourite health blogs, apps, websites and podcasts to share with you.

1. The Happy Newspaper
What is it?
The Happy News is an actual newspaper that spreads positivity and “shares happy news.”
Why do we love it?
We love that The Happy Newspaper celebrates the myriad of wonderful and positive things people are doing in all walks of life around the world. It’s a truly inspiring and uplifting read that offers a much-needed break from the norm.

2. Yoga with Adriene
What is it?
Free yoga videos for all abilities and needs, delivered by a wonderfully engaging teacher Adriene Mishler. Hailed as “the people’s yogi”, she’s soft and unassuming with a magnetic personality. In 2019 Adriene sold out Alexandra Palace in London and held a yoga class for 2,400 people!

3. Food Matters
What is it?
Informative health and wellbeing website focussing on nutrition as a key to good health. Lots of features on exercise and emotional wellbeing plus podcasts, articles, recipes and info on natural therapies.
Why do we love it?
The sites founders’ James Colquhoun & Laurentine ten Bosch started out by producing the film Food Matters, to explore the healing powers of good nutrition. Since then they’ve added other titles and have encouraged a whole movement of like-minded folks to ditch the junk, shed extra pounds and find greater fulfilment through healthful living.

4. The Rich Roll Podcast
What is it?
A series of podcasts featuring a great variety of inspirational people from all walks of life.
Why do we love it?
It’s the place to go for expert opinion if feeling stressed or anxious or just in search of some inspiration. Think of it as a podcast “pick-me-up” or virtual health boost via the inspirational content.

5. mindbodygreen
What is it?
A great source of all things wellness, committed to motivating you to be the best version of yourself emotionally, physically spiritually and environmentally. Think of it as an online health magazine.
Why do we love it?
Loads of interesting articles and quick tips. The antithesis of many magazines that can leave you feeling empty, this leaves you feeling motivated to meditate and focus on self-care.

6. Buddhify (paid app)
What is it?
An app packed full of short guided meditations and mindfulness exercises for every occasion: when you’re in the bath, when you’re feeling stressed, can’t sleep…
Why do we love it?
Whilst it’s a paid app there are no monthly payments, just a one-off fee of £4.99 for what is a practical on-the-go resource for mindfulness.

7. Water Reminder (free app)

A simple app with the sole purpose of reminding you to drink more water. So easy to forget!
