When it comes to the Asian lifestyle, most of us are wired to think that we’re not successful if we aren’t hustling hard enough. In order to “make it”, we have to sacrifice relationships and sometimes, our health too. Overtime, our mental health suffers, and inevitably, our physical health too.
According to stats, Kuala Lumpur is the 4th overworked city in Asia (behind Hong Kong, Singapore and Seoul). We’re ranked #1 as the top overweight population in Southeast Asia. As aforementioned, unhealthy work culture makes it tough for employees to achieve a more balanced and optimal life. This is where biohacking comes in.
Last week, Amani Wellness organised a series of Core Reset System workshops at The RuMa Hotel and Residences to introduce a holistic wellness approach to the mind, and body. Ms Yap Yann Fang (who is the founder of Beauty & Co. Clinic) personally invited Pavel Stuchlik (popularly known as NOA|AON) to facilitate Malaysia’s first ever biohacking workshop of its kind.
Science based holistic wellness practitioner Pavel Stuchlik has held more than 400 workshops where he uses breath-work, meditation and audio stimuli to transform one’s body and mind through an immersive wellness experience. When Yann Fang first experienced one of Pavel’s workshops abroad last year, it was life changing and since then, she’s been determined to introduce this form of wellness experience to Malaysians.
So what is biohacking? To put it simply, it uses science, biology and self experimentation to take control of the mind and body in order to live a smarter and healthier lifestyle. Some of those tools include sleep optimization, breath-work, meditation and other science and technology based tools. The best biohacking results really come from being well-informed and cautious about what works for your body.
While this is still in its early stages, Yann Fang is planning to bring the future biohacking and holistic wellness to Malaysia. The 30,000sf Biohacking Wellness Centre, called Amani Wellness, is set to launch in Kuala Lumpur either at the end of 2023 or early 2024.
