A world of Wellness

by

For over half a century, the concept of wellness has infiltrated communities, schools, workplaces and healthcare around the world, inspiring people to embrace healthier lifestyles. Wellness has been a movement, profession and industry, but most of all, wellness continues to evolve as a dynamic process that has now inspired four generations.

A movement that touches upon every aspect of the way we live our daily lives: what do you eat? Is it organic? What chemicals do you come in contact with daily? Do you exercise? Are you familiar with the benefits of fermented foods? What supplements do you take? Do you meditate? These questions have moved out of the realm of the ‘health nuts’ and are now being seriously considered by most.

With scientific developments challenging long held health beliefs, we are quickly becoming familiar with the new thinking on the science of wellbeing, the role of the microbiome, the mind-body connection, the ageing process, and all this with implications that we cannot possibly fully yet grasp.

Closer Look explores the movement in Macau, looks at what is available at present, talks to the local players, from members of the yoga community to aromatherapy practitioners, and asks the crucial question: is Macau ready for the wellness movement?
