Balance between Filling and Emptying: the Essential Ingredient of Wellness Life
Nature circulates. When it’s full, it empties itself; and when it’s empty, it fills itself again. Thus, nature is never superfluous or lacking. Here lies the secret to good health. As the saying goes, "Too much is as bad as too little," and you cannot find healthiness just by filling. A life of balance between emptying and filling. That is truly a healthy life.

Jeju 901's Special One-Day Class
Jeju 901. What a strange name. Everyone knows what “Jeju” means, but most would have a hard time wrapping their heads around what the number "901" means. Do you need a hint? Well, here it is: "Circulation." '9' in "901" means filling, whereas ‘0’ means emptying. And ‘1’ symbolizes filling yourself anew. So, Jeju 901 means a place where you can empty yourself of all the stress from your city life and fill yourself anew to ready yourself for a more vibrant future. In this sense, Jeju 901 is like a comma that offers a point of respite in the middle of an arduously long sentence. It offers a chance to empty yourself only to be filled again.
One of the most popular wellness program at Jeju 901 is a one-day class consisting of 901 Mindfulness and 901Yoga. 901 Mindfulness helps participants examine the inner flow of the body and mind and awaken their inner self through meditation and “Mindful Movement.” Mindful Movement is a stretching exercise based on scientific interpretation of yoga. During the class, you can learn the correct stretching postures and how each posture reacts to the body and mind. 901 Mindfulness ends with a vegan brunch set prepared with organic home-grown ingredients. You can choose to skip the vegan brunch, but it is recommended for increased effectiveness of 901 Mindfulness.
901 Yoga is a healing yoga based on Hatha Flow. Hatha Flow is a modified version of the traditional Hatha Yoga. It helps you make the most of your body's muscles and joints through unique balance poses and deep stretching. Another attractive feature of Hatha Flow is that it continuously engages your attention because each posture flows naturally. Hatha Flow helps improve concentration, lung capacity, flexibility, and muscle strength. It is also effective in correcting body balance. 901 Yoga participants can choose between a brunch set or an organic smoothie. 901 Mindfulness and 901 Yoga are offered every day from 09:00, and each session takes around 80 minutes. You can also rent yoga clothes for 5,000 won.
