Wellness at ATW

We all know that a week long event can be really intense on us both physically and mentally. In our day to day routines it is much easier to look after ourselves and find time for self-care however at a conference self-care becomes a second priority. At Advanced Therapies Week we are promoting wellness and self-care as we want you to be your best selves across the whole week and being your best selves means you will have more capacity to take in the content, find yourself having more productive partnering meetings and will contribute to a more positive event experience overall. The goal is to create an environment that not only fosters engagement and networking but also supports your overall well-being. So, how are we going to ensure you find balance during Advanced Therapies Week?

Activities

Throughout the week we will put on physical activities to promote wellness. These include sunrise yoga and a 5k fun run along the shores of Miami beach. We all know movement promotes happy endorphins and alleviates stress.

Wellness Lounge

We have created a dedicated wellness lounge for all Phacilitate members. This will be a tech free zone and will be home to healthy smoothies, fruits, nuts- all the good stuff and none of the processed food that gives you energy slumps throughout the day. The wellness lounge will also be home to guided meditation/breathing sessions and will have a quiet space where you can unwind in your own time. It has been scientifically proven that a 10-minute meditation can help you feel rejuvenated and helps with increasing concentration.

Refreshments

Drinking alcohol isn’t for everyone and we know conferences can be a place where you feel you should have a drink to feel part of the crowd. This year we will be offering a range of non-alcoholic options at every networking event so you can enjoy the event without the need to drink. Plus, throughout the event we will have hydration stations with infused water, herbal teas and fresh fruit to encourage you to stay hydrated throughout the event.

Freebies

Everyone loves some event swag so this year our swag will come with a wellness theme. Think stress balls, healthy snacks and self-care kits.

Nature

Nature has a positive impact on mental well-being, this is why we have 4 networking events outside so we can all get some fresh air and soak up the Miami sunshine, giving us the daily dose of vitamin D we all need.
