Corporate bits | Conrad Macao to launch “pink” breast cancer campaign

Conrad Macao, Cotai Central will launch its “PINK Inspired 2016” campaign, in support of breast cancer research, from October 1 to 31. The event, which is run in support of the Hong Kong Cancer Fund’s Pink Revolution, is now in it’s fourth year, according to a statement from the resort.
“Breast cancer is the most prevalent form of the disease among women around the world, regardless of age,” said Bede Barry, vice president of hotel operations. “With this in mind […] we will be hosting a series of PINK experiences for guests and staff starting October 1,” added Barry.
Throughout October, the campaign will turn the hotel, along with all of its floral arrangements and decorations, into a “passionate pink”.
Moreover, “Pink Fridays” will see staff and management adding the color to their uniforms as well as emails and handwritten guest cards.

Yogaloft to host September meditation events

During September, Yogaloft will host several events around meditation and relaxation. According to the downtown studio, it will welcome the first ever “ambient/chill out event” held in Macau on Saturday at 5 p.m.
Organizers Rita Gonçalves and Ryoma Ochiai have invited Japanese colleague DJ Yumii to come to Macau to share her music, which is known for being able to take its listeners to very deep states of relaxation.
Yumiko Watanabe has played in alternative music festivals like “Boom Festival” (Portugal), “Universo Parallelo” (Brazil), “Transahara” (Morroco)”, “Psy-Fi” (Netherlands) or “The Experience Festival” (Thailand), but also works with yoga teachers in smaller events, creating soundtracks for yoga classes.
Meanwhile, in four sessions across September’s Fridays, interested parties can learn how to meditate at Yogaloft. Several meditation and breath and relaxation techniques will be shared and participants will be able to take home a small booklet with a description of what they have learned.
