Cam Ranh, June 12, 2025 – The Westin Resort & Spa Cam Ranh, in collaboration with the Hity brand, recently hosted the "Embroidery Therapy" workshop—a standout cultural event designed to introduce the traditional art of Vietnamese hand embroidery to the international press. This inspiring workshop was a highlight of the "Rejuvenating Retreat at The Westin Resort & Spa Cam Ranh," held from June 12 to 16, 2025, and brought together journalists and key opinion leaders from Singapore, South Korea, Japan, China, India, the United States, and Australia. The event also marked Global Wellness Day and celebrated the resort's first anniversary, showcasing the resort's commitment to cultural heritage and holistic well-being.
Going beyond a typical hands-on experience, the 'Embroidery Therapy' workshop brought together the shared values of Hity and The Westin, celebrating the quiet power of traditional craftsmanship. This unique event was inspired by the belief that nurturing both body and mind leads to true peace of mind, laying the foundation for a prosperous and sustainable life.
When Heritage Infuses a Rejuvenating Journey
Driven by a mission to inspire and promote holistic well-being, The Westin Resort & Spa Cam Ranh took a unique approach to celebrate its major milestones. Instead of opting for traditional entertainment, the resort partnered with Hity—an acclaimed brand recognized for its dedication to sustainable fashion and the preservation of local traditional crafts. Together, they hosted an exclusive workshop for international journalists, transforming the resort into a vibrant cultural hub. This collaboration offers guests a sophisticated introduction to heritage values, making the experience both memorable and meaningful.
Amid the serene ambiance of the cultural station, artisan Ty Trang from Hity guided guests on a journey through history. Setting aside modern technology, everyone had the chance to experience traditional hand embroidery techniques—art forms that have endured for over a century and still hold incredible value today. This event wasn't just an embroidery workshop; it was a vibrant celebration of living heritage.
90 Minutes to Soothe the Soul
The bustling world outside seemed to pause, allowing complete focus on each needle and thread. What started as simple curiosity soon turned into deep concentration, and ultimately, pure joy. During the 90-minute workshop, a remarkable transformation took place. Guests who were used to a fast-paced work environment and constant global travel became fully submerged in the art of embroidery. At first, their fingers were a bit awkward, but with patience and mindfulness, they grew noticeably more skilled. Stress and worries faded into the background, leaving only the embroiderer, the fabric, and the beauty of the emerging patterns.
Hand embroidery is more than just an art form—it's a therapeutic experience that nurtures the spirit, encourages mindfulness and brings a sense of calm. During the 90-minute workshop, guests found themselves feeling relaxed, lighter, and filled with joy. This is the true 'Therapy for the Soul' that Hity and The Westin Cam Ranh strive to share.
A Parting Gift to Continue the Journey of Tranquility
As the 'cultural station' came to a close, each guest's journey toward tranquility was set to continue in a unique and personal way. Hity and The Westin Resort & Spa Cam Ranh thoughtfully offered a parting gift: a rustic hand embroidery kit complete with a linen cloth, needle, thread, and embroidery hoop. This heartfelt gesture served as a reminder that tranquility is always within reach—it can be found anywhere, with just a few simple tools and the calming practice of embroidery.
As the final stitches came together, something deeper than the finished artwork quietly took root in their minds. It wasn't just the afterglow of a cultural experience; it feels more like a sense of renewal after a journey back to oneself. The workshop shows that true craftsmanship is like a cool, refreshing stream—always powerful enough to nourish the spirit and create a peaceful haven within.
Through their shared vision, Hity and The Westin Resort & Spa Cam Ranh have created a sanctuary of serenity where Vietnamese heritage is more than just admired—it becomes a source of true tranquility. Alongside their international friends, they have skillfully used needle and thread to 'embroider' moments of genuine peace. In today's fast-paced world, this connection to calm and tradition is truly the most precious gift.
