New way to de-stress

If your new year's resolution is to be mindful of your body and general well being, the Manuka Prana Mat could be a welcome addition to your fitness regime.  The Manuka Prana Mat was developed as a tool to relieve tension and release stress through the use of Chinese Acupressure.  The points on the mat apply  pressure to 6000 points in the body to stimulate energy points, releasing tension and boosting circulation, which results in improved energy (chi) flow. Surprisingly comfortable to lie o, the mat is already a favourite with many yoga and well-being experts who appreciate the benefits of this daily exercise and relaxation routine.  Regular use can help relieve tension in the back, neck, hips and legs.  It can also be used for the abdominals, to increase metabolism and improve digestion.  Exclusive to John Lewis, the mat (and carry bag) costs £45.  Tel 08456 0490489 or visit www.johnlewis.com
