All of us would like be healthier, to look better, and to live well both physically and spiritually.
Living well is almost the entire world’s shared dream. As everything that is precious to us has been honored with a special day, why is it that we don’t have a special global day dedicated to the only thing which is really valuable to all of us, that is, living well? We can now answer this question by saying “it now exists”. This special day is called “Global Wellness Day.”
First celebrated in 2012, Global Wellness Day was established in Turkey as the “first” day dedicated to living well, and has now been accepted worldwide. Reflecting its success, in 2020 Global Wellness Day was celebrated globally with a 24-our livestream which started in New Zealand and ended in Los Angeles, once again drawing attention to the importance of “living well”. Global Wellness Day will be celebrated on Saturday, June 12th, 2021, worldwide and Vietnam.
