Global Wellness Day 2025 to take place June 14

On Saturday, June 14, Global Wellness Day 2025 (GWD) takes place. This year is its 14th anniversary, uniting millions across the globe in a transformative movement.

Guided by the #ReconnectMagenta theme, this year’s celebration invites people of all ages to participate in free, inspiring activities, ranging from indigenous sound healing and senior walks to family camping and the iconic magenta illumination of Istanbul’s iconic Bosphorus Bridge, a press release noted.

Five pillars of holistic well-being

In a world increasingly defined by disconnection, digital overload and distraction, Global Wellness Day 2025 turns the spotlight inward and outward, urging humanity to rediscover the healing power of meaningful relationships. The #ReconnectMagenta is built on five interconnected pillars of holistic well-being:

Reconnect with Mother Nature: Every step in nature reaffirms our role as stewards of the planet, fostering harmony and balance.
Reconnect with self: Honoring our inner needs unlocks personal growth and enduring well-being.
Reconnect with family and friends: Embrace digital detoxes to be fully present, deepening bonds and creating cherished relationships.
Reconnect with community: Build a sense of belonging and shared purpose to nurture vibrant, supportive networks.
Reconnect with longevity: Prioritize physical, mental, emotional and cognitive well-being for a fulfilling life.

“Connection is the heartbeat of life,” says Belgin Aksoy, Global Wellness Day’s founder. “In a fragmented, technology-driven world, #ReconnectMagenta infuses color, warmth and vibrancy back into our relationships-with Earth, our inner selves and each other. This is our call to come together.”

Led by 120 dedicated Global Wellness Day 2025 ambassadors, key supporters and volunteers, the GWD offers a dynamic action plan to redefine wellness globally. Prestigious international hospitality brands are also joining the cause:
