Australia Joins Global Wellness Day For The First Time With Free Events Scheduled Across The Country

Free wellness events will take place across the country as Australia celebrates Global Wellness Day
fully for the first time. Proudly presented by Well Traveller, Australians wanting to
connect to wellness
are encouraged to save the date – Saturday 14 June – and register to be the first
to hear about the
comprehensive free events program.

Global Wellness Day is a not-for-profit movement celebrated in more than 170 countries. Its mission is

simple but powerful: to inspire people to live well, with the belief that one day can change your whole
life.

This year's theme, Reconnect, invites Australians to pause and reflect on what really matters – from

our connection to ourselves and the natural world, to our relationships with family, community and
culture.

Events on the Australian program have been curated in line with this theme, from yoga in the park and

sound healing to bushwalks, breathwork and family-friendly wellness activities. All events are free to
attend and will take place across metro states and territories and regional areas including Byron and
the Adelaide Hills.

Two Well Traveller flagship experiences that will feature on the Global Wellness Day program include:

Your Morning Ritual – On the Harbour - a guided experience to start the day blending gentle
movement, mindfulness and meditation whilst taking in the spectacular views of Sydney Harbour.
Continue your morning experience with a short walk and then join Healing Herbs: Harness the
Lifeforce of Nature for wellbeing - whereby attendees will explore the Royal Botanic Sydney's Herb

Garden with Jurlique skincare Farm & Tourism Manager Cherie Hutchinson and discover how herbs
and botanicals have been used for centuries to lift moods, heal bodies and nourish your skin. The
experience includes a complimentary full sized Jurlique skincare gift to continue the ritual at home.

Katherine Droga, founder of Well Traveller has been announced as Australia's Global Wellness Day

Ambassador, said that the day is a beautiful reminder that wellness doesn't have to be expensive or
exclusive.

"It's about simple, accessible moments that help us feel better in our bodies and calmer in our minds.

And when we prioritise our own wellbeing, that has a ripple effect – especially for our kids, our families
and our communities," she said.

As a mother and passionate wellness advocate, Droga's connection to the day is deeply personal.

"I've seen the power of early wellbeing habits in my own family," she says. "If we can model that for
young people – to pause, to move, to breathe and get into nature – we're setting them up for lifelong
health," she said.

Droga is also one of Australia's most respected voices in wellness travel and tourism. As founder of

Well Traveller and Well Traveller TV, creator of the Wellness wander festival, Chair of the Global
Wellness Institute's Wellness Tourism Initiative, and founder of Droga & Co, she is well placed to
support Australians finding their well place.

Well Traveller's involvement in Global Wellness Day also marks the launch of its new What's On

Wellness Calendar – a curated, searchable hub of wellbeing experiences across Australia, organised
by destination, feel-state and experience type. The platform aims to make it easier than ever for
people to discover and connect with events and experiences that support their mental, physical and
emotional wellbeing.

Save the date – Saturday 14 June – and register now to be the first to hear about free Global

Wellness Day events around Australia at: https://www.welltraveller.com.au/whatson/global-wellness-

"We are launching the full ticketed, but free program early June because we expect events will book

out fast.

"When you register, you will be the first to access the Global Wellness Day free program on the Well

Traveller What's on Calendar. If you are looking for wellness - it will be the place to go," Droga said.
