Coronavirus has left a lot of us are feeling disorientated, overwhelmed and anxious. At a time when we’re being advised to stay at home as much as we can, maintaining a healthy body and mind can seem almost impossible. Luckily, hotels across the world are stepping up and streaming all manner of wellbeing initiatives in order to help you stay positive, productive and inspired until normal travel resumes.

As part of Carrier tour operators’ #StayCurious initiative, Carrier Recommends is a three-part series in association with Luxury London, which aims to provide inspirational travel experiences that you can enjoy without leaving your home. In the second of the series, Carrier looks at the way in which five hotels are promoting health and wellness through online classes, recipes and rituals.
