In partnership with the Mandrake Hotel, our wellness insiders discovered a dose of inner calm in the heart of central London.
Did you know that The Mandrake Hotel has a sound healer in residence? They do, and much more, as part of an extensive wellness programme, which also includes yoga, Reiki and breathwork. To celebrate the offering and provide some relief from the January blues, we invited leading names in beauty and wellness to experience the incredible calm of a sound healing class.
Guests were welcomed up to the hotel’s penthouse, and chatted over health drinks by Turmeric Co, before getting cosy on their mats, with eye masks and blankets on offer, and the scent of the exclusive Mandrake candle by The Perfumer’s Story in the air.

After an introductory talk on the restorative nature of wellness, led by CF wellness director Becki Murray, leading sound healing practitioner Maria Lodetoft then started the session using her crystal bowls to create an environment that attendees described as an “unbelievably relaxing and transformative start to my day.”
The main takeaway: to always take a curated moment to shake off the stress of a busy schedule and start the day with renewed intentions. Each participant was also gifted a journal and a crystal bracelet to take away with them, to help keep them feeling centred, even as they returned to the heart of London outside the hotel doors.
