Whether you\u2019re a total\nwellness convert, or simply flirt on the fringes of longevity and wellbeing, we\ncan all agree that eating right, exercising, getting enough sleep and mastering\nstress are essential to maintaining good overall health. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
At times, there\u2019s\nnothing more attractive than early morning yoga and a fresh salad to start your\nday right. At other times, simply maintaining a healthy lifestyle can be an\noverwhelming challenge, incompatible with the realities of daily life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
At GOCO Hospitality,\nwe try to bridge the gap between our switched-on lifestyles and living in a way\nthat exudes wellness. If properly adapted to our daily routines, healthy living\ndoesn\u2019t need to be grandiose and is simple to achieve. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In reality, whether\nit\u2019s a guest in a wellness hotel or a member of our team in our Bangkok office,\nso much of the healthy living message GOCO Hospitality promotes is made up of\nthe small things people do throughout the day. Some so small, many may not even\nrealise they\u2019re practising wellness at all. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here is a list of\nwellness hacks we know are easy to implement and significant in results, at\nboth an individual level and for developers looking to improve their guest\u2019s\naccess to wellness amenities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Water is the lifeblood\nof our existence. For those fortunate enough to have free-flow access to clean\nwater, drinking enough water a day is often seen as an inconvenient necessity\nrather than a beneficial practice. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
From alkaline water\nthat is said to reduce free radicals in the body to plain, regular tap water,\nstarting the day with a re-hydrating glass of water and continuing the trend\nthroughout the day is one of the best ways you can stay healthy, both in mind and\nin body. Hydrating first thing also helps aid digestion, enhances your skin\nhealth and boosts your energy, some argue as much as a cup of coffee. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
For hotels, providing\nfresh mineral water or on-tap alkaline water in-room or in strategic spaces\naround a property is the first step in encouraging water drinking among guests.\nForget two small water bottles in the minibar, provide a refillable bottle that\ncan be topped up anytime, anywhere. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Many of us have little\nto zero interaction with any significant natural element in our average working\nday in our city-centric lives. Trips to the park at weekends or holidays at the\nbeach feel great not because you\u2019re taking a break, but because you\u2019re\nsurrounded by nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Biophilia is the ideas\nthat as humans are still animals at heart, we seek connections with nature and\nother forms of life. In other words, our modern lifestyles have sped ahead of\nour innate needs and inherent connection to the natural world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
To balance this\nnegative change in our lives, which is on the whole unavoidable, GOCO\nHospitality focuses our expertise on creating innovative biophilic design\nsolutions for our clients, harnessing this affinity to nature in the spaces we\nspend most of our time. On a personal level, bringing nature inside or bridging\nthe gap between human-made and nature helps create spaces with more natural\nlight and better air quality while also making us happier, helping us recharge\nand even become more productive. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Conventional living\nseems to increase the number of chemicals and toxins in all that we do.\nHousehold cleaning products are often full of harmful chemical ingredients, and\nthe food and drinks we consume often are riddled with residual chemicals and\npesticides. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Switching as many\nthings as possible to a healthy, bio-friendly alternative is a simple and easy\nway to reduce your exposure to environmental toxins. The same goes for skincare\nand personal care products. GOCO Hospitality partners with some of the leading\nglobal spa product lines, almost all of which promote concepts of healthy,\nnon-toxic ingredients and philosophies. As the skin is our largest organ,\nreducing the toxic burden on the body by switching to more natural alternatives\ncan pay dividends for personal wellbeing and overall health. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
There are a million\nreasons why organic food is better for your health and another million social\nreasons on top of that. Eating healthy, organic foods (ideally locally sourced\nfood where possible) is simply better for your health, the environment and the\nlabour it takes to produce the food in the first place. At GOCO Hospitality, we\nprovide a healthy macrobiotic lunch to our team every day to ensure they eat\nthe best food and are fit for the day ahead. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In addition to the\nmore significant examples of wellness living tips listed above, there are many\nmini-wellness practices you can do to boost your wellbeing without much effort\nat all. Mini-wellness practices mix up your regular routine in a way that can\nbecome your everyday routine without noticing \u2013 such as taking the stairs\ninstead of an elevator, walking home from the bus stop before your house, stand\nup and take a stroll every 30 minutes while at work, bask in the sunlight on\nyour lunch break, be kind and practice gratefulness, and simply doing things\nyou enjoy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
From big steps to\nlittle changes, incorporating wellness into your daily life is easier than it\nseems. As the hospitality industry looks towards wellness in more significant\nways, the demand for wellness-centric facilities and amenities will also\nincrease. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In conclusion,\npractising as much or as little that is comfortable is key \u2013 as we all know\nthat putting too much pressure on yourself can have a negative effect on\npersonal wellbeing. Practice the wellness in ways you enjoy and transform your\nspaces into centres of wellbeing where possible, and you\u2019ll notice a change to\nyour overall health and wellbeing in no time. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
