Why Wellness Matters

 

Wellness matters because everything we do and every emotion we feel relates to our well-being. ... Therefore, it is important for everyone to achieve optimal wellness in order to subdue stress, reduce the risk of illness and ensure positive interactions.

​

Inactivity is the New Normal

​

As the population ages, health care costs increase, medical science continues to reveal new discoveries, we become more educated consumers, and the interest in pro-active “self-care” or 'wellness," has become one of the world's fastest-growing industries. 

​

Sustainability Movement and Climate Change

 

Tourism is responsible for roughly 8% of the world’s carbon emissions, making it a significant contributor to climate change. Sustainability and climate change is a major concern for the wellness traveler. They want to know what a lodging sustainability statement is and their ecological footprint. Do they support ethical economic development in their communities, which means everything from minimizing plastic consumption and making greener transportation choices to eating at locally-owned restaurants and booking eco-conscious accommodations.
