On June 11, Shangri-La hotels and resorts around the world will invite guests, colleagues and communities to find their #ParadiseWithin on Global Wellness Day, an international celebration of health and wellness. From 10-minute massages and juice bars to beach-side yoga and healthy cooking demonstrations, Shangri-La, Traders, Kerry and Hotel Jen properties will host free wellness activities and offerings surrounding Global Wellness Day to promote healthy and mindful living.
Hotels and resorts will incorporate unique local attractions, such as a rooftop spin class in Taipei that will overlook the cityscape and Taipei 101 building or a city bicycle tour to Pudong Expo Park in Shanghai. Hotels and resorts will also integrate local offerings into Global Wellness Day celebrations, such as healthy refreshments prepared by the in-house tea sommelier following a garden yoga session in Singapore or a Rooted in Nature cooking demonstration using locally sourced ingredients by the executive chef in Penang, Malaysia.
Shangri-La will celebrate Global Wellness Day with the global community on social media. Guests and colleagues can join the movement by hashtagging posts with #ParadiseWithin and #GWD2016.
“Global Wellness Day is all about encouraging healthy lifestyles and positive living. What better way to spread the word than through the global connectivity of social media?” said said Todd Hewitt, corporate director of spa, health clubs and recreation at Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts. “We look forward to sharing, liking and following along on our properties’ and guests’ journeys toward living well.”
