Banyan Tree Invites the World to Take a "Sacred Pause" with the Launch of #ThisRightNow On Global Wellness Day 2025
A global invitation to reconnect with nature, self, and community through rituals inspired by land, season, and ancestral memory
In celebration of Global Wellness Day, Banyan Tree, the flagship brand of Banyan Group unveils #ThisRightNow, a global call to pause, breathe and reconnect with what truly matters. The initiative invites guests across the world to step into presence through gentle rituals inspired by the wisdom of nature, local traditions and ancestral rhythms.
From desert valleys to coral reefs, sacred temples to snow-capped mountains, #ThisRightNow is brought to life through curated experiences across Banyan Tree’s sanctuaries around the world. Each moment is grounded in nature:
- Banyan Tree AlUla: Stargazing in the Ashar Valley evokes ancient constellations and desert stillness.
- Buahan, a Banyan Tree Escape: Temple blessings and astrological rituals reconnect guests with ancestral time.
As a pioneer in holistic wellbeing, Banyan Tree offers an evolving eco-system of spa and wellbeing experiences designed for modern travellers. This includes thematic retreats, multi-day programmes, and a curated selection of wellbeing products guided by Banyan Group’s 8 Pillars of Wellbeing. Key offerings include:
- Banyan Tree Connections: a private wellbeing immersion for two integrating movement, mindfulness and shared rituals to nurture both inner balance and relational harmony. Offered as a supplement to any room reservation, the programme is currently available at Banyan Tree Vabbinfaru and Banyan Tree Phuket, and will be launched at Banyan Tree Mayakoba and Banyan Tree Anji by the third quarter of this year.
- Banyan Tree Wellbeing Sanctuary: Signature room categories complete with sleep rituals, nourishing cuisine, and destination-inspired daily practices.
- Visiting Practitioners Programme: Intimate and restorative sessions led by global experts in nature-based healing. Featured in the second half of this year are Wim Hof Method instructor Laura Hof (Banyan Tree Dubai and Banyan Tree Phuket), sound healing and meditation practitioner Harriet Emily (Banyan Tree Vabbinfaru), and restorative yoga instructor Gabrielle Mendoza (Banyan Tree Phuket), with additional practitioners to be announced.
Beyond the resort, Banyan Tree extends the invitation to everyday life. Through breathwork, sensory micro-rituals, and moments of still reflection, the brand encourages people everywhere to practice presence—wherever they are. Guests are invited to share their personal pauses using #ThisRightNow, contributing to a growing collective of mindful experiences.
