Nestled within the colourful historical district of Balestier, The Initial invites guests to embark on a transformative journey of self-care and rejuvenation during its wellness weekend retreat as part of the Singapore Wellness Festival 2024. From 5 to 7 July,
participants can immerse themselves in various activities dedicated to the mind, body, and soul.

With programmes that are suitable for beginners, the retreat offers knowledgeable workshops and classes that aim to provide a starting point for participants to kickstart their wellness journey.

As a pioneering co-living serviced residence, The Initial offers a haven where urban living meets personalised experiences. Its partnership with the Singapore Tourism Board underscores its commitment to being involved in and part of the community where it operates.

A retreat for the mind and body

Embark on a journey of self-care and rejuvenation during The Initial’s weekend retreat. Over three days and two nights, guests can engage in a thoughtfully curated selection of activities to nurture mental and physical well-being.

From immersive skincare and decluttering workshops to invigorating yoga sessions and mindfulness classes, every moment is designed to instil a sense of balance and inspire personal growth among guests. Explore the rich cultural tapestry of Balestier through guided tours and indulge in private one-on-one wellness sessions tailored to individual needs.

Ms Anne Teng, a guest instructor and sound healing therapist from Healing Harmonies, shares, “If you’re seeking a break from the hustle and bustle of daily life, Healing Harmonies offers the perfect escape. Our group sound bath sessions are designed to soothe your tired body and mind. Join us and immerse yourself in an experience that leaves you feeling relaxed, grounded, rejuvenated, and ready to start the week ahead.”

Nourishing creations, for your heart and soul

During the retreat, guests are welcome to indulge in a culinary journey that nourishes both body and soul. The Initial’s dedicated in-house chef will prepare nourishing meals with meticulous care, reflecting its commitment to holistic wellness.

From wholesome breakfast spreads to hearty dinners, each dish is specifically curated to fulfil and nourish — a core component often overlooked in wellness. Additionally, guests are invited to unwind by joining mocktail classes, offering a refreshing and rejuvenating way to complement their wellness experience.

Cap off this rejuvenating weekend retreat experience at The Initial with a visit to a bazaar on Sunday, 7 July, at Thank You Come Again (TYCA), a bistro nestled within The Initial which not only provides refreshments but also a co-working and event space for the community. Kicking off at 11.30am for participants and open to the public at 1pm, this vibrant marketplace will showcase a diverse array of offerings from our supporting vendors and local artisans, adding an extra layer of excitement and discovery to your journey of self-care and exploration. Our vendors from Kalm Organise and Oh Hello Bae will also be offering wellness products during the bazaar.

Browse through unique handmade crafts, artisanal goods, and one-of-a-kind treasures, each telling its own story and inviting participants to connect with the rich tapestry of local culture and creativity. Whether you’re seeking a special memento to commemorate your retreat experience or simply looking to support talented craftsmen and women, the bazaar promises to be a highlight of your weekend. Drop by the bazaar as The Initial celebrates community, creativity, and connection.
