Revitalize your soul at restorative experiences, unwind in soothing waters at spa getaways, ground your body through movement at active retreats or discover healing through geologic elements in natural vapor caves. In the Centennial State, we may play hard with world-class outdoor adventures, but we also know a thing or two about elevated self care.
Restorative Experiences
Zee Clarke Tibetan Sound Baths
Denver
Worries melt away with sound baths where the golden tones of Tibetan singing bowls align your chakras and get those theta brainwaves humming. Traditionally used by monks and Buddhist practitioners in rituals, prayers and meditation, the restorative experience will help reduce stress, lower blood pressure and create a sense of peace.
Crestone Mountain Zen Center
Crestone
Find your Zen at this haven where the energy is "peaceful and magical" and vegetarian meals — served in three bowls to highlight texture, color and taste — give your tongue a spiritual awakening. Join meditation sessions, traverse the campus’ trails or call the center home while exploring the nearby Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve, Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad and UFO Watchtower.
Violet Sparks Energy Wellness Retreat
Villa Grove
Disconnect from the world’s stress and connect with fellow humans at this holistic healing retreat in a supportive environment. You’ll stay in cozy cottages tucked between the beautiful hills of Villa Grove, craft nourishing meals and take up space to find inner peace. Return to the world afterward with a renewed sense of how to practice tranquility in your everyday life.
Relaxing Soaks
Joyful Journey Hot Springs Spa
Moffat
Book a few nights at the cozy two-bedroom Casita for a secluded sanctuary in the heart of the Mystic San Luis Valley. The stunning crimson hues of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains pair perfectly with soaks in the travertine-spring-fed pools. With significant levels of boron, calcium, lithium and magnesium along with several other beneficial minerals, this hot spring is unique in that you’ll notice no sulfuric odor as you soak in bliss.
Oakwell Beer Spa
Denver
If a frosty pint lifts your spirits, imagine what a sudsy tub will do. Unwind with nutrient-rich beer baths, hops-infused infrared saunas and “beeromatherapy.” Afterward, soothe sore muscles in a zero-gravity full-body-massage chair and treat yourself to local craft brews in the taproom.
