Big & beautiful – A bird in the hand…
Many studies have shown that breathing exercises can help reduce stress, improve sleep, and reduce feelings of anxiety and panic. But while those exercises are the gateway to inner peace for some, it can be a lot less zen for others who don’t immediately succeed. Enter the Moonbird, a tool that makes calming breathing exercises a lot easier. By holding the ‘bird’ in your hand and inhaling when it expands and exhaling when it shrinks again, you automatically get the right rhythm. The accompanying app shows how your body relaxes more with each breath and offers various exercises. For the development of the Moonbird, the Belgian CEO Stefanie Broes worked closely with doctors, psychologists and therapists. It is available in four colours.

Store Profile – Weather and Wind
Fog and rain, west wind? That’s exactly the kind of weather where an old-fashioned duffel coat comes in handy. They are beautiful, warm and indestructible, in fact: they only become more beautiful over the years. The new Dutch online store Magazijn Boss & Ulrich has an extensive range of those gender-neutral, vintage sea duffles from ten to sixty years old, which have already built up that coveted patina. And they are the real thing: 100 percent wool, unlined and of heavy, water-resistant and windproof quality. All jackets are steamed and repaired by hand where necessary with original materials and then provided with the Magazijn Boss & Ulrich label, as a guarantee of quality. The duffels come in different sizes, colors and versions and are priced between €200 and €300.
