Global Wellness Day Dinner As a result of the Covid 19 pandemic, people have learned to better appreciate the meaning and value of being with loved ones. In order to further encourage and foster good habits and improve the physical and spiritual health of the community, Global Wellness Day 2021 was officially launched in Vietnam with a Wellness Dinner for media & VIP on February 5, 2021 at Le 17 Bistro - Sofitel Saigon.

T

he dinner, hosted by Mr Henri Hubert, Vietnam’s Ambassador of Global Wellness, announced a series of activities for Global Wellness in 2021. Sofitel Saigon’s General Manager, Mr Mario Mendis together with Executive Chef Tran Van Cuong carefully crafted the “Wellness Menu” with healthy ingredients and accompanying juices to provide the invited guests with the real meaning of Wellness Fine Dining. Attendees of the dinner included Mr. Rad Kivette, MC Van Hugo, Actor Tran Bao Son, Actor Lanh Thanh and some other key media personnel in Vietnam. At the dinner, Mr Henri Hubert shared his vision and made his statement that “Wellness is the art of living. It is a process of awareness to keep your body, mind, emotions and spirit in a healthy condition by eating quality foods, participating in sports, enjoying entertainment and appreciating nature. Healthy living also means staying positive, understanding yourself, and keeping yourself mentally and physically balanced in all circumstances ”. With the experience of living and working in Vietnam for almost 20 years, Hubert considers the invited guests as friends and through this informal dinner, he and the guests shared their opinions, life experiences and outlooks on wellness, healthy living and how to create a life that provides value for others in society. Mr. Hubert believes that "Beauty not only lies in clothes, but also comes from a healthy body and a beautiful soul". Perhaps this is also the reason why the Founder of Global Wellness Day chose Henri Hubert as the Program Ambassador in Vietnam - because of the similar values that Hubert aims to encourage in society. Hubert believes that with the companionship of agencies, organizations and influencers in the community, as well as the media, the message of Global Wellness Day will quickly spread throughout society, becoming a driving force for people to work towards a better life and a healthier living environment. Ultimately the Wellness Dinner wants to deliver this message to society: choose clean, nutritious food products for family meals, practice the right sports and spend time with your loved ones. Treasure every single happy moment that life brings you. In 2021, Global Wellness in Vietnam is planning to unveil a series of events and campaigns to raise awareness and promote wellness across the country with the help of media and influencers. Led by Ambassador Henri Hubert, this initiative promises exciting events ahead that will put Vietnam on the map for wellness-minded countries globally.
