Starting a Movement: ‘Busy Resting’
As a global leader in hospitality and wellness, Westin Hotels & Resorts is committed to helping travellers find restorative rest. The contest is part of Westin’s ‘Busy Resting’ campaign that was launched in January 2025 across Asia Pacific excluding China.
The campaign includes a series of films and key visuals that borrow the language of busyness to reframe rest—not as something to squeeze in, but as something too important to skip. By turning the idea of being too busy on its head, Westin aims to show those who never make time for rest why they should be too busy for anything but rest.
