Rosewood Hotels & Resorts has debuted “Journey to Resilience,” a new wellness retreat concept designed to enhance one’s ability to recover from or adapt easily to change. The retreats will focus on four main behavioral elements to resilience—positivism, purpose, resourcefulness and compassion—through practices to assist guests in recognizing areas of their lives they’d like to restructure or enhance.
Following a challenging year with stressful periods and rising levels of anxiety, the “Journey to Resilience” retreats will address all aspects of well-being: The physical, the emotional and the mindful. Each retreat will incorporate practices reflective of local wellness traditions and natural surroundings. The “Journey to Resilience” experiences provide a holistic approach, encouraging guests to let go of lifestyle habits, thoughts and behaviors that no longer have a positive impact. Through fitness, nutrition and other well-being therapies, the practices will empower individuals to face life’s challenges with confidence and adaptability and establish a deep inner equilibrium.
Retreat elements at the participating Rosewood properties include:
- Asaya at Rosewood Hong Kong’s “Journey to Resilience” retreat begins with “Resilience Insights” in the form of a Wellness Lifestyle Assessment and Body Composition Test.

This retreat includes a Naturopath Consultation, as well as a Stress and Sleep Management lesson to ease and relax the body. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is offered to help balance emotions and allow guests to understand the thoughts and feelings that might influence their actions.
