RETAIL THERAPIES

■■After living with a feeding tube for 12 hours a day due to an eating disorder, Faye Bingham created Tubie Life, a collection of cleverly adapted backpacks (£64.99, tubielife.co.uk) offering a stylish solution for people using feeding tubes to carry their pumps and equipment with them while on the move.

■■You might think only baths can bring aromatherapy benefits, but choose products packed with essential oils and even a speedy shower can boost your mood. Working instantly through inhalation, it lasts for hours afterwards as the oils are absorbed through the skin. Tisserand’s Total De-Stress and Sleep Better Bath & Shower Washes (£14 each, tisserand.com) are a heavenly place to begin. ■■Recommended on the NHS App Library, mental health app My Possible Self (mypossibleself.com) is now available to download free. Created in collaboration with Priory Healthcare, it uses cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) to help users manage anxiety, tackle depression and cope with stress, as well as providing exercise and movement videos, and brain-boosting recipes.

■■Gone vegan but still missing a decent egg brekkie? Try scrambled OGGS (£3.25, Sainsbury’s). The plantbased alternative both looks and cooks like eggs, but produces 60 per cent less CO2 than eggs from chickens. As it’s made from chickpeas it provides a source of protein (and can also be used to make quiche).
