Most places give you a class. The Peninsula gives you a weekend. For Global Wellness Day, they’re rolling out a three-day festival that feels more like a quiet rebellion against burnout. Mornings kick off with tai chi by the river, or if you’re feeling bold, SUP yoga on water. Want something with bounce? There’s Zumba. Prefer stillness? Try floating meditation. Afternoons shift gears – think sound baths, ice plunges, herbal therapy, and cooking demos where macrobiotic meals meet Michelin calm. It’s not loud. It’s not branded. It’s just well done.
Everything is built around one idea: ‘Life Lived Best.’ And here, that means rest, rhythm and remembering what your body actually needs – all while the Chao Phraya quietly flows past. It’s not a spectacle. It’s a reset. The kind you don’t realize you needed until you walk back into the city and feel... like a feather.
