Ready for 2026? Five Products To Help You Reset and Refocus
Words by Adeline Teoh · Updated on 13 Dec 2025 · Published on 05 Dec 2025
A new year tends to bring a sense of reset and, even if you’re not big on resolutions, January has a way of prompting a little reflection. It’s a natural moment to think about how you want the year to feel – whether that means being more organised, carving out time for your wellbeing or simply creating habits that make everyday life run more smoothly.
This season, The Iconic is making that refresh feel more achievable with a selection of considered essentials to support your routine as you ease into 2026.
Set some goals
Writing down your goals is an effective way to keep yourself accountable. No one else has to know, and you can diarise your thoughts, feelings and progress. A beautiful notebook, like the Bespoke Letterpress linen bound journal ($44.95), paired with a quality pen, is a great place to begin.
Be clear about your objectives for the year: goals should be achievable, measurable and time-bound. It’s fine to say you want to “stress less”, but you need to commit to actions you’ll take to get you there – whether that’s meditating for 10 minutes a day, talking to your boss about reducing your workload (and setting a date for this conversation), or joining a hobby club.
Stay focused
We live in an age of distraction, so staying focused gives you an advantage when it comes to achieving your objectives. A pair of noise-cancelling headphones might be just the thing to cut through the din. These Sudio K2 Pro headphones ($189.95) offer the quiet you need to concentrate, along with long battery life for when you want to settle in with an audiobook or power through a to-do list without distraction.
Hydrate
Most of us could stand to drink a little more water and, while the general guide is around two litres a day, your needs will shift with warmer weather or increased activity. If you’re looking for a nudge, the Owala Freesip stainless steel water bottle ($74.95) is your 945mL hydration sidekick. The built-in straw lets you sip or swig, while the wide opening and triple-layer insulation mean you can pack it with ice and keep your water cold throughout summer.
Be prepared
You don’t have to be a scout to be prepared. Eating well often comes down to meal prep and half the battle is storage. Whether your goal is to eat better or save money by bringing lunch, the Frank Green lunch container ($79.95) has you sorted. Made of premium-grade stainless steel with a silicone lid, the spacious lunch box comes with inner containers and layers to separate components until mealtime. It all snap-locks together for easy transport.
Find your movement
“Get fit” can mean something different for everyone. For some, it might be building strength or improving stamina; for others, it’s simply finding a form of movement that feels good, supports wellbeing or fits into everyday life. Whether that’s gentle walks, stretching at home, low-impact workouts or joining a local run club, the key is choosing something that suits your body, your lifestyle and your goals.
If you’re looking for comfortable, supportive footwear to help you move more in 2026, Nike’s Free Metcon 6 ($180) is a versatile option designed for a variety of workouts, offering a stable base and reliable multi-surface traction. For those who enjoy running or want extra cushioning for long walks, the Asics Gel-Kayano 32 Luxe ($290) provides advanced grip for different surfaces and premium cushioning.
