7. WELLNESS + GOVERNMENTS:<br />
THE CASE FOR COMING TOGETHER<br />
BY THIERRY MALLERET<br />
Whether it’s new bathhouses featuring hydrothermal bathing<br />
The GWI, in its recent report, makes a compelling case in favor<br />
of wellness policies, which have been years in the making.<br />
They will now evolve, multiply and strengthen - a defining<br />
trend of <strong>2023</strong> and beyond.<br />
Two fundamental reasons make this inevitable: unwellness<br />
shrinks the size of the labor force while at the same time<br />
causing declining productivity, and wellness saves public<br />
money because prevention is less expensive than cure.<br />
8. WELLNESS + WATER:<br />
BLUE, HOT AND WILD<br />
BY JANE KITCHEN<br />
We’re now watching several trends come together under the<br />
umbrella of soaking, dipping or swimming in natural water as<br />
a growing body of evidence around 'blue wellness', the way<br />
that water benefits our wellbeing, has emerged. An explosion<br />
of interest in wild swimming and cold water swimming follows<br />
publicity of the benefits of cold water immersion - a natural<br />
remedy for anxiety, depression and sleep disorders. Open<br />
water swimming and winter ocean, or lake, dipping is now<br />
an activity that appeals to a range of ages and abilities, as<br />
people desire social connection and connection with nature;<br />
search for natural remedies for mental and physical ailments<br />
and pursue authentic, local experiences. In hospitality, some<br />
innovative resorts offer guided swims in local waterfalls,<br />
lakes or rivers. In cross-country swimming, where hiking and<br />
swimming are combined, and lakes, rivers or estuaries are<br />
considered not an obstacle, but a part of the challenge.<br />
On the other end of the temperature spectrum, owners and<br />
developers of hot springs are combining entertainment and<br />
cultural activities with soaking - a social, natural, and quite<br />
often, affordable activity. GWI researchers predict annual<br />
growth rates of 18% for thermal and mineral springs through<br />
2025.<br />
9. WELLNESS + SPORTS:<br />
NEW BUSINESS MODELS FOR HOSPITALITY<br />
BY LISA STARR<br />
Savvy brands are responding to today’s wellness focused<br />
consumer by creating spaces and options ensuring that<br />
wellness, fitness and recovery services can be maintained<br />
along with business meetings and networking.<br />
Social media grants us access to the lives and routines of elite<br />
athletes and feeds our fascination with their abilities. Given the<br />
public preoccupation with sports, the habits of the 'celebrity<br />
athlete' influence how consumers want to live their lives,<br />
maintaining their routines when traveling. Using sports as a<br />
lens through which to attract and connect with consumers is<br />
a timely business strategy as emotional connections to sports<br />
have become a unifier that transcends boundaries, languages,<br />
age and cultural differences.<br />
