Six Senses Bhutan
Six Senses Bhutan
The Bhutanese Gross National Happiness index of time measures work-life balance and how time can be spent on work and other leisure activities such as sport or socializing with family and friends. The index also includes details on the hours of sleep needed, because the importance of sleep goes way beyond just boosting the mood or banishing under-eye circles. It’s all about finding the equilibrium between doing and being.
That’s why your restorative journey continues in Punakha with treatments designed around reducing tension and stress and boosting vitality and stamina.

It concludes with the nasya (nasal oil application).
