Como Metropolitan London launches Healthful Meetings and Events
With employee wellness increasingly being linked to productivity, Como Metropolitan London, home to the Como Shambhala Urban Escape, has launched new a Healthful Meetings package that capitalises on the spa's expertise in holistic wellness.
The Healthful Meetings package, designed to encourage better focus and energy throughout the day, can be tailored to any business meeting or event.
Clients can choose from a number of different venue options within the hotel, as well as a host of tailored activities to promote physical and mental wellbeing.
Delegates can expect to be greeted with a Como Shambhala juice — designed to hydrate and give fast-flowing fuel to mind and body. A mid-morning break offers healthy snacks to keep energy levels boosted.
A lunch of Como Shambhala Cuisine is rounded off with ginger and manuka honey tea, which is an aid for digestion. A second wellness juice is served mid-afternoon, which helps with circulation after a day of sitting down.
Como Shambhala Cuisine is a style of cooking developed by the company over 20 years, which relies on a greater quantity of raw ingredients and unprocessed sugars, as well as warming broths and health-giving salads.
A sample menu might include a blood orange, artichoke and broad bean salad with shaved fennel and an almond and orange blossom dressing; poached chicken and mango salad with fresh coconut chutney and curry leaves; and spiced lamb skewers with tahini yogurt sauce.
As well as healthy cuisine, delegates are invited to choose activities from the hotel’s new wellness menu, which has been created to showcase the wide range of services available from the resident experts at Como Shambhala Urban Escape.
Options include 10-minute massages for team members, hour-long sessions on stress management, meditation, or controlled breathing lessons with the spa’s yoga teachers.
The Healthful Meetings package is priced at £110 per person and includes room hire for the day, food, snacks and all the amenities needed to conduct a meeting.
