At We are The Helpful, we believe the best kind of care is real, grounded and given with heart. That’s why we’re beyond proud to welcome àile holistic into our growing Partnership Collective - a brand that doesn’t just understand self-care but lives and breathes it with beautiful intention.

àile holistic is a Scottish-made, heart-led brand founded by Gill, a holistic therapist with a genuine gift for creating care rituals that meet people exactly where they are. Every single product is handmade in small batches using high-quality, natural ingredients, and designed to support the emotional and sensory needs that often go unspoken.

This isn’t “wellness” for show. It’s ritual and restoration for real life.

And we can say that from personal experience. When I was recently under the weather, Gill dropped off a care package for me - completely unprompted. I was floored. Every product felt so intentional, so soothing, and so right. I felt seen, supported, and genuinely cared for. That is the magic of àile. It’s not just what’s inside the jar, but the thoughtfulness behind it.

A Bespoke Offering, Just for You

We’re thrilled to share that Gill has lovingly created three exclusive Self-Care Bundles just for We are The Helpful - each one aligned with one of àile’s signature blends. Whether you’re gifting, going through something yourself or simply want to reconnect to your own rhythms, these bundles are your invitation to pause and tend to what you need.

Revitalise Self-Care Bundle:  For energy, focus & renewal

A vibrant, citrus-kissed selection designed to awaken the senses and reset your energy. Ideal for morning rituals, post-travel fatigue, or anytime you feel foggy, flat or just “meh.”

• Aroma Roller – Rise & Shine (Grapefruit, petitgrain & rosemary for instant uplift)
• Body Oil – Rise & Shine (A bright, botanical blend to invigorate skin and mood)
• Herbal Tea – Rise & Shine (A refreshing citrusy infusion for natural energy)

This is for the days when you need momentum, motivation or just a bit more light.

Soothe Self-Care Bundle: For deep relaxation, rest & emotional comfort

This one’s for your evenings, your slow Sundays, your moments of “I need a reset.” Crafted to comfort, calm, and restore - mind, body and nervous system.

Why We Love Àile

Because Gill makes self-care that’s rooted in real emotions, real experiences and real need. Each product is created in Scotland using the highest quality ingredients, guided by therapeutic knowledge and soul-deep care.

àile isn’t about perfection. It’s about presence. It’s about noticing when things feel heavy and offering a ritual that gently says, “I've got you.”

Whether you choose a complete bundle or individual pieces to create your own ritual, this is self-care with meaning, made by hands and heart we trust.

Get to know Gill

My name is Gill, and I’m the founder of àile holistic. I’m a holistic therapist, intuitive guide, and wellness collaborator, offering supportive treatments, and sensory-led products and experiences to help others feel more connected, calm, and cared for.

Tell us about your 'why': àile was born in lockdown, during a time when we could no longer hold space for our clients in person. My friend and fellow aromatherapist, Abi, and I began creating blends that could offer comfort and support from afar. It was our way of staying connected - to our practice as therapists, to each other, and to the people we cared for. Over time, àile has become a space where my therapeutic work and love of natural, sensory healing has evolved. More than ever I feel the importance of supporting others in feeling more present, grounded, and at home in themselves.

And tell us a little more about your brand: àile holistic creates sensory experiences and therapeutic offerings that guide people back to a place of balance and presence. It began as an intentional aromatherapy range and has grown into an offering that includes bespoke treatments, scent compositions and rituals for both individuals and events. Every product is hand-blended in Scotland using natural, ethically sourced ingredients and guided by a deep respect for the plants we work with. At its heart, àile gently invites people to explore their own version of well-being, intuitively and intentionally.

What has been the most impactful and helpful gift you’ve received from a loved one, and why? During one of the hardest times in my life - when my dad was very unwell, a dear friend showed up with simple, thoughtful care. She looked after my children, brought nourishing food, vitamins and thoughtful treats, and gifted me essential oils to bring calm and comfort. That kind of steady and thoughtful love and care is something I’ll never forget.
