Jumeirah Olhahali Island encourages guests to experience World Wellness Weekend via exclusive activities

Jumeirah Olhahali Island has presented an exclusive wellness programme in celebration of World Wellness Weekend, taking place from 20 to 22 September 2024. This specially curated event aligns with the five pillars of wellness established as an annual, pro bono initiative to support the United Nations’ goal of Good Health and Well-being for All, including sleep and creativity, nutrition and immunity, movement and vitality, mindfulness and serenity, and purpose and solidarity. With one bespoke activity per day aligning with each of the five pillars, guests can indulge in purpose-nurturing experiences such as:

• Purpose and solidarity: A variety of treatments such as Sodashi Heart Chakra face and body alignment, designed as a fusion of healing modalities to bring balance and harmony to the chakra system while restoring the skin’s complexion.
• Movement and vitality: Guests will have access to active pursuits throughout the resort such as dancing classes and mat Pilates.
• Mindfulness and serenity: Through activities to promote and practice mindfulness and concentration, guests can book sessions including prana, trataka and Tibetan singing bowl meditations. In the privacy of their contemporary villas, visitors can also indulge in customise bath rituals for guests of all ages, with soothing foam baths infused with citrus-scented oils and opulent amenities.
• Sleep and creativity: In addition to jet lag massages and shirodhara treatments, guests are invited to personalise their sleep experience with the resort’s curated pillow menu, offering nine options ranging from cassia seed pillows to orthopedic pillows, all designed to enhance sleep quality and provide maximum comfort.
• Nutrition and immunity: Throughout the weekend, Jumeirah Olhahali Island’s diverse culinary outlets present healthier lifestyle choices through bespoke gastronomy and nutritious food stations, featuring fresh ingredients for fruit juices, wellness elixir shots, and Ayurveda-inspired drinks, along with healthy entrees ranging from salads to soups and more.
