June 01, 2017
On June 10, 2017 Rosewood Castiglion del Bosco, the bucolic Tuscan resort founded by Massimo and Chiara Ferragamo, will celebrate Global Wellness Day, an annual, international initiative dedicated to living well. One of the 13 Rosewood Hotels & Resorts® properties participating in the campaign, Rosewood Castiglion del Bosco will offer a special series of guest programming inspired by Italian wellness traditions to help educate guests on the benefits of healthy living and the ways to incorporate wellness into everyday life.
“Tuscany’s spectacular landscape, mild climate, and distinct culinary rituals have always attracted guests looking to relax and recharge, making it a wonderful destination to celebrate Global Wellness Day” said Davide Bertilaccio, managing director of Rosewood Castiglion del Bosco. “From barefoot walks through the resort grounds to hands-on organic vegetable gardening classes and interactive wine discussions, we are looking forward to engaging guests in unique activities that connect them with Tuscany’s idyllic countryside and its rich cultural traditions.”
The diverse Global Wellness Day offerings at Rosewood Castiglion del Bosco will kick off with an invigorating morning run through the property’s golf course. Guests looking for a more relaxed pace can participate in a barefoot walk and guided breathing session to promote relaxation and a calm mind, and to take in the details of the breathtaking natural surroundings. An organic vegetable gardening class and healthy cooking lesson will provide hands-on experience and valuable take-aways regarding healthy eating so that guests can continue incorporating these practices in their day-to-day life once they return home.
For guests looking to incorporate wellness into their beauty routine, organic cosmetic masks will be provided for guests to refresh their skin before attending a “Good Food, Good Wine” educational seminar to learn about the benefits of thoughtful food and wine pairings. At the end of the day, a healthy cocktail demonstration will provide tips and tricks for creating refreshing cocktails with fresh juices and herbs, and a sunset yoga session will serve as a relaxing way to wind down the day.
