“At Ovolo we love giving our guests unique experiences which connect with them emotionally, and this is no different.

The Sleep Deep Experience
Ovolo’s partnership with The Body Shop also extends to an innovative experiential guest experience, The Sleep Deep Experience, a unique stay at Ovolo Woolloomooloo, available from 11th – 14th August.
Created in collaboration with renowned sleep expert Olivia Arezzolo to provide Aussies with the tools and knowledge to sleep better and wake stronger, the experience features The Body Shop’s new four-step sleep routine which is clinically proven by the European Sleep Center to help you sleep better and wake more energised.
Designed for individuals, highlights from the experience include a personalised 1:1 sleep consultation with Olivia, a calming sleep-inducing sound-bath meditation by Sydney-based Field of Sound and a sleep-enhancing dinner designed in partnership with Olivia and Ovolo’s chefs.
The experience comes as new research revealed a third (34%) of Aussies are only sleeping up to 6 hours in a typical night and, despite spending almost $5bn on sleep enhancements over the past two years, less than a fifth wake up feeling refreshed.
The State of Sleep survey, conducted by The Body Shop, also revealed over a quarter of Aussies (28%) don’t have a consistent sleep routine. That’s despite guidance from Dr Maxime Elbaz, Doctor of Neuroscience at the globally renowned European Sleep Center advising that “Forming new habits and bedtime rituals is the only way to reset our sleep cycles [and avoid] the emergence of more sleep problems.”
But it’s not just sleep-friendly experiences guests can expect. The room will also be fully optimised for sleep, with a lock box for electronics – perfect for the quarter (25%) of Aussies who stay up late binge-watching their favourite shows – blue-light free bulbs to block sleep-harming blue rays and soft furnishings in calming blue hues.
Speaking on the experience, Olivia Arezzolo said: “These research findings highlight the severe lack of sleep Aussie are getting. Sleep is so important for our bodies; it helps us stay mentally and physically fit, can help reduce anxiety and depression and can help maintain healthy skin[1].
“Science-based, straightforward solutions are needed, and that’s why I’m so excited to team up with The Body Shop to create this experience and launch the new Sleep Range. Not everyone can justify a sound bath to help them drift off every evening, but there are so many elements of this experience that you can recreate at home for the perfect night’s sleep, from a protein-rich dinner, to incorporating The Body Shops new Sleep Range into your evening routine.“
Further commenting on the launch, Shannon Chrisp, APAC Brand and Activism Director at The Body Shop said “The European Sleep Centre has identified a link between a good quality night’s sleep and the benefits it has on our skin health. At The Body Shop, we know that prioritising your mind and body is a rebellious act of self care, and a body and mind in balance can take on the world. We’re excited to be working with Olivia and other experts to bring this immersive experience to life featuring our clinically proven Sleep range. The new Sleep Deep Experience is encouraging all Australians to think more about their sleep routine and take a moment for themselves.”
