| | | | The mindful movement
• Hotels have been aware of the huge global trend for health and wellness for quite some time now, and have been adapting their offers accordingly, both in terms of providing gym equipment, activities and spa facilities - and in adapting menus to take account of an increased desire for healthy eating.
And following on behind the wellness trend is that of mindfulness - defined as a mental state achieved by focusing one's awareness on the present moment, while calmly acknowledging and accepting one's feelings, thoughts, and bodily sensations, used as a therapeutic technique.
In practice, adherents of mindfulness are keen to live meaningful lives which maximise their own potential while being careful not to adversely affect others. This is where the concept of mindful drinking comes in - sinking a skinful is not a particularly mindful activity!
The Bermondsey Square Hotel in London, which hasn't served alcohol since it was sold in 2014, has cannily noted the trend and is hosting the UK's first mindful drinking festival, which offers alcohol free alternatives to many of the nation's favourite tipples. I fully expect this to be the start of a significant trend among progressive hotels internationally.
