Luxury Canadian Wilderness Resort, Nimmo Bay is ready to provide guests with their best sleep in years. The rise in interest for sleep tourism is no surprise to this resort, located deep in the Great Bear Rainforest. Taking sleep tourism to a whole new level, they are offering travellers an unparalleled opportunity to rejuvenate their minds and bodies through the power of quality sleep.
According to Dr. Matthew Walker, a renowned sleep scientist and author of Why We Sleep, “sleep is the single most effective thing you can do to reset your brain and body for health”. Therefore, when choosing a place to spend a restorative vacation, where you lay your head should be top of mind.
Providing deep, restorative sleep to guests takes more than just a comfortable bed and a few blackout curtains. Though each cabin does come equipped with the highest quality linen sheets and plush bedding, quality sleep stems from a holistic experience that focuses on; feelings of comfort, settling the mind, nourishing the body, and human connection.
People’s digital connection diminishes with the limited service available at the resort. Guests are encouraged to put their phones away and connect on a deeper level outdoors with the people around them. As a delightful side effect to this, your body soaks in more sunlight during the day and is exposed to less artificial light at night. This works toward resetting the circadian rhythm that dictates an individual’s sleep cycle.
Nimmo Bay’s holistic wellness program offers guided meditation sessions and therapeutic massage treatments. Guests are empowered to reconnect with their body and mind, evoking the relaxation response and paving the way for restorative sleep. Additionally, the resort’s world-class culinary offerings emphasize nutrient-rich, sleep-promoting foods like local lean proteins, complex carbs, leafy greens, and herbal tea. These foods calm the body and reduce tension by increasing serotonin, melatonin, antioxidants, and magnesium.
Additionally, at Nimmo Bay these four pillars are supported by nature. Guests will fall asleep to the sounds of a flowing waterfall, rustling leaves, and the lull of the ocean. No noise machines are needed at this resort. The natural soundscapes create a calm and soothing environment, decreasing fight-or-flight in the human brain, completely conductive to quality sleep. Each of these element’s work in perfect harmony to further enhancing the sleep experience at the resort.
