Wellness in motion: Spa Ceylon to celebrate Global Wellness Month in June

This June, Spa Ceylon will mark Global Wellness Day with the launch the #MyWellnessGoals campaign highlighting the importance of active lifestyles to achieve optimum health and wellness. 

Global Wellness Day was first celebrated in Turkey in 2012 – six years later it is globally accepted as the day dedicated to the awareness of healthier living for a better life, regardless of country or culture. Global Wellness Day is on Sunday, 9 June this year and will be celebrated in more than 100 countries in 5,000 locations. 

This social project has one simple message – live well for a more fulfilling life. Living well manifests in various aspects of lifestyle – diet, sleep, exercise, environment and mental health. In Sri Lanka Spa Ceylon is the iconic wellness brand celebrated for its commitment to health and well-being. The #MyWellnessGoals campaign is looking for calls for action from Sri Lankans on how they will commit to wellness- be it drinking more water, getting more exercise, or even recycling responsibly. 

“Wellness is ingrained in the very DNA of what we do,” says Spa Ceylon Co-Founder ShalinBalasuriya. “Over the entire month of June we’ll get the opportunity to really embrace our commitment to this idea of wellness by taking the message across the country. We’re encouraging this commitment to setting wellness goals at both personal level, and via larger community minded initiatives like the in-storerecycling project. We look forward to engaging with likeminded Sri Lankans.” 

Spa Ceylon will also conduct an instore wellness initiative tohelp customers recycle responsibly – offering discounts to those who droptheir used plastic bottles at the recycling boxes available at its signature stores and spasto be recycled. To incentivise this effort, discounts will be offered to those making contributions at the store.
