"One of the funny paradoxes of trip taking is that it can be an escape from all the headaches back home and also serve as a means of growing as a person so that you are better able to meet your challenges in the place where you actually live-often at the same time. And I think this beautiful contradiction is especially inherent in wellness travel, which had already taken off like a rocket ship before the pandemic"
"Part of that growth is due to more travelers putting value on these kinds of getaways, but another part is thanks to hotels and resorts adding an increasing number of offerings to help their guests do both the escape part as well as the feel-like-a-new-you-at-home part. In this issue's annual wellness package, we cover a few of the most compelling new trends, including programs that promote gut health; the move toward group wellness itineraries; and the rise of art therapy."
Travel can simultaneously provide escape from everyday headaches and foster personal growth that helps travelers better meet challenges at home. Wellness travel expanded rapidly before the pandemic and has accelerated since borders reopened and travel resumed. Increased demand reflects more travelers valuing restorative and developmental getaways while hotels and resorts have added programming to support both relaxation and long-term well-being. New offerings emphasize gut-health programs, organized group wellness itineraries, and art therapy as modalities for healing and growth. These trends blend vacation-style respite with practical tools that help guests feel renewed and better equipped at home.
