Dear Readers,
I
believe that wellness begins at home. Happy and
fulfilling relationships are at the core of personal
wellness. But what is the recipe for a good
relationship? Interestingly, there’s no one mantra that
suits all. Every relationship is different and every couple
has a unique way of making it work for themselves. But
the basics – love, respect, acceptance – remain the same.
In our quest to find what works and what doesn’t,
we seek out Soha Ali Khan and Kunal Khemu, who are
very much in love, as is evident in ‘Love is in the Air’
on page 50. The dynamic duo lets us into their personal
space and tells us all about what keeps them together.
From fitness and beauty to travel and food, the two spill
the beans on everything that clicks for them.
In our ‘Couples Special’, we touch upon the
different things that can keep the spark alive in a
relationship. In ‘Spa For Two’ on page 60, we give you
the most indulgent couples treatments offered at spas
across the country. In ‘The A to Z of Couples Wellness’
on page 70, we offer you tips and tricks that will help
you introduce more wellness into your relationship –
from exercising and exploring new activities to quitting
bad habits, there’s so much you can do together. In
‘Around the World in 37 Ways’ on page 76, we give you
several reasons to pack your bags and travel the world.
What I’m most excited about is the account of my
personal journey at the fabulous VIVAMAYR Medical
Centre in Austria. I learnt so much about myself in the
six days that I spent there, and I’ve never felt better! I’ve
left you a few tips too in ‘Better Than Ever!’ on page 36.
I wish I had stayed longer in the cooler climes,
but I’m back, and summer’s here with a vengeance.
So we tell you how to keep your fitness routine going
without breaking into too much of a sweat in ‘Oh
Buoy!’ on page 28. Then, we talk to some of the
country’s finest spa experts and get them to spill the
beans on Hydrotherapy in ‘Water Ways’ on page 42.

The good news that we give you this time that it’s
important to eat fatty food, albeit the healthy kinds!
Find out what makes the cut in ‘Fat Facts’ on page 46.
While this and much more inside our pages
is reason enough to be excited, I’m sure you’re as
excited as I am to see who made it to the winners’ list
at the 10th GeoSpa asiaSpa India Awards that was
held at The St. Regis Mumbai in March. It was an
exciting evening for all of us, and we let you in on
most of what happened in ‘Star-studded Night’ on
page 112. Of course, for more details you will have to
wait for Winners League, our awards special!
Until then, happy reading.
