10 Best Spiritual Resorts in the West
The 10 Best Spiritual Resorts on North America's West Coast
In our mind, a spiritual resort is a place where you can go out of mind. A place that’s therapeutic not just for your body but the most over-worked and over-heated organ in this mad, mad world . . . your brain.
A spiritual resort is a place that chills your brain organ to the point that it can release itself from the compulsion to think. Our picks for the top 10 resorts on North America’s West Coast span Vancouver Island in the north and Zihuatanejo, Mexico in the south (The beach where Tim Robbins goes when he escapes at the end of the movie, Shawshank Redemption). These places aren't Canyon Ranch; They're the inventors of some of the treatments that Canyon Ranch bills spa-goers thousands of dollars by the week. As you let yourself go into the experiences in this series, let us know if we’ve missed a favorite destination or sanctuary that you'd like to share with others . . .NEXT: Present Moment Retreat, Mexico
Thank you very much for choosing Harbin Hot Springs
in your Top Ten!
We have many more rooms than the domes, which are just recently opened to the public. We also offer camping accommodation, and day visits.
I wonder whether it should be mentioned that Harbin’s pool and sun-deck area is clothing optional?
Thank you for your good work – you founded a great web site !
Harbin is great! It does have computers in the Cafe… they are not verboten, but everything else you mention is. Harbin is a great place to camp in the warmer summer months, and is very affordable this way. They also have fabulous food in their restaurant, or you can cook your own meals in the communal Fern kitchen (and buy groceries at their wonderful health food store)
And yes, it is a clothing-optional resort.
SoulArts is the place you come to when desiring to honor once individual soul. It is the most nurturing and life transforming experience I have ever had. You don’t have to know or be anything…and out of that comes amazing seeing of new desires and gifts. Ronda LaRue is an extra ordinary gem in providing just what you need at that moment. It is a fantastic place. Highly recommend it!
