Sensei’s Post

Sensei Lānaʻi, A Four Seasons Resort, is recognized for “Most Epic Natural Backdrop” by The Zoe Report in its recent story of The Best Wellness Resorts in the World to Unwind & Destress in 2024. Writer Lindsay Cohn shares, "Surrounded by towering palms, pine trees, and mountain peaks, Sensei looks like a postcard for Hawaii. The setting is so specular it almost overshadows the first-class facilities and activities. The personalized approach to well-being means guests recalibrate courtesy of morning meditations, garden walks, forest bathing, bespoke spa treatments, and Koloiki Ridge hikes.” Visit the link below to read more:  https://lnkd.in/gGt7m5z5

This #WomensHealthWeek, we’re proud to partner for the first-ever #HearstHealthLab summit!

Later in the day, our Director of Program Operations, Kelly Georgiou, led guests in a movement break before the summit welcomed keynote speaker Dr. Jill Biden to the stage.   We were truly inspired by all of the valuable insights shared by panelists throughout the event, and feel empowered to share these actionable recommendations with the women close to us, this week and into the future.
