Crew at JEN Male’ by Shangri-La Celebrates Global Wellness Day with Guests
Sunday 12th of June 2022
Global wellness day is a day dedicated to living week, with free and experiential wellness events to encourage people to try living smarter and better. The goal of the day is to recognize the value of our lives, to take a moment to reflect, to be free of the stress of daily life, to unite nations around a common cause, and to spread the message that wellness is more than a luxury—it is a necessity.
JEN Maldives Malè by Shangri-La kicked off the International Wellness Day celebrations with a series of early morning power walks around the capital city of the Maldives to commemorate Global Wellness Day on June 11th, 2022. Think Magenta was chosen as this year's GWD theme because the previous two years had been so gray and bleak, and we needed a little color in our lives through positive thinking.
The power walk started at 6 a.m. at the hotel's main entrance. It included a brief tour of Male' city's outskirts, complete with a fresh sea breeze and early morning sunshine. The walk allowed participants to connect with nature, which has numerous physical and psychological benefits because nature is mesmerizing and has the ability to heal and recharge.
The walk revealed areas such as the local fish market, Male city port area, Rasfannu Beach, Swimming track to Artificial beach, which the in-house guests were enthralled to discover. The power walk lasted one and a half hours and took place around the world's smallest capital city. Following the walk, guests and hotel staff were treated to a healthy breakfast with fresh ingredients and a curated tasting of healthy drinks. For all of the participants, it was a fun-filled, energizing morning.
“It is no secret that physical activities release endorphins in our brains the hormones that makes us feel good. A refreshing walk / run gives a health boost to my body and a very therapeutic feeling to my soul at the same time”. Expressing his satisfaction over the course is the General Manager of JEN Male’ by Shangri-la, Brice Lunot.
