Hyatt and Headspace Expand Collaboration to Include Colored Noise Content to Support Guests and World of Hyatt Members on Their Wellbeing Journey
Hyatt is offering members and guests new mindfulness content from Headspace to help them live well

CHICAGO (October 10, 2023)Hyatt Hotels Corporation (NYSE: H) and Headspace announced today the expansion of the collaboration between Hyatt and Headspace to continue supporting guests’ wellbeing with new colored noise content for World of Hyatt members and guests. Beginning October 11, Hyatt will be the only hospitality company to offer guests and members a complimentary sampling of relaxing sounds from Headspace’s premium colored noise collection. Available via the World of Hyatt App and in-room televisions at select properties across the U.S., Canada and Mexico, this spectrum of sounds can help you drift off, relax or focus. Whether at home or on the road, those looking to complement their mental health and wellbeing can focus on winding down from the busy day, decreasing stress and improving their sleep with science-backed mindfulness and meditation content. Science has proven that mindfulness can have positive impacts on mental health.  In fact Headspace has been shown to have favorable outcomes of interventions including reduced stress, improved focus, increased compassion, decreased aggression, and increased positivity.

“As a hospitality company focused on care, Hyatt takes pride in raising the bar on wellbeing in a rapidly changing world,” says TJ Abrams, Vice President, Global Wellbeing, Hyatt. “Collaborating with industry leaders like Headspace allows Hyatt to better care for our guests, and I have personally experienced the positive, stress-relieving impact of mindfulness content during my recent stays at our hotels.”

Putting Stress and Anxiety to Bed with Colored Noise

In celebration of World Mental Health Day, the expanded collaboration with Headspace further enhances the guest experience and illustrates Hyatt’s ongoing commitment to wellbeing and making a lasting, positive impact on our guests, members and colleagues. Utilizing its world class audio department, Headspace created two of the highest quality sleep noises, now available for free to World of Hyatt members and guests, including:

  • White Noise: The original noise to fall asleep to, like smooth static to help zone out.
  • Brown Noise: A robust, deep noise akin to a roaring waterfall in the distance.

“At Headspace, we're delighted to deepen our collaboration with Hyatt, a true leader in prioritizing the wellbeing of their guests,” said Emma Nemtin, Head of Consumer Partnerships and Distribution at Headspace. “Our shared commitment to enhancing the guest experience aligns seamlessly with our mission to improve the health and happiness of the world. By offering exclusive sounds from our colored noise collection, we're thrilled to help guests unwind, find tranquility, and experience a peaceful night's rest, whether they're at home or on the go.”

To celebrate the continued collaboration with Headspace, World of Hyatt members can also enjoy a 30-day free trial subscription to Headspace, encouraging members to prioritize their wellbeing both during and in between stays at Hyatt hotels around the world. The 30-day free trial subscription is subject to Headspace Terms & Condition, auto-renews at $12.99/ month after the first month and may be canceled at anytime.

Redefining Wellbeing at Hyatt

As a part of the collaboration with Headspace which began in 2019, Hyatt and Headspace have teamed up to make mindfulness exercises, guided meditations and sleep content more accessible to colleagues, corporate customers and guests. This effort builds on Hyatt's holistic wellbeing strategy, which focuses on creating meaningful experiences designed to help guests, members, and customers live healthy, happy, and fulfilling lives.

From collaborating with Headspace to expanding current offerings like Together by Hyatt for meetings and events to signature wellbeing experiences through World of Hyatt’s FIND platform and transformative guest experiences, Hyatt is also committed to inspiring guests on their personal wellbeing journeys long after their stay.
