Celebrating wellness around the world

On September 21 and 22, the third annual World Wellness Weekend will take place in more than 100 countries, with thousands of venues hosting free classes and services. According to the event founder, Jean-Guy de Gabriac, wellness is built on five pillars: sleep/restoration, nutrition/nourishment, vitality/movement, serenity/mindfulness and purpose/solidarity. Participating spas and organizations are required to offer at least one free one-hour event, which qualifies them to be included on the geo-locator map as part of the weekend’s promotional activities.
