Colorado wellness retreats

Do you need a break from life’s stresses (and maybe even your kids?) Grab your girlfriends for a wellness getaway to a hot springs spa. A sound bath. A yoga retreat. Or maybe an aromatics farm.

Colorado.com has rounded up some fabulous girls trips in Colorado! Also, don’t miss Colorado’s unique wellness getaways, retreats, programs and clubs.

Restorative Retreats

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. You’ll leave these sessions smiling like you know the answers to life’s mysteries. (Please tell us if you do.) 

Joyful Journey Hot Springs SpaMoffat
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.

Shoshoni Yoga Retreat, Rollinsville
At the Yoga Lifestyle Immersion extended retreat, guided meditation will help you forget about your earth-bound troubles (like those neighbors who still have their holiday lights up), while fire ceremonies reignite your spark for life. (Featured Photo)

Crestone Mountain Zen CenterCrestone
Find your Zen (literally) 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 or call the center home while exploring the nearby Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve, Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad and UFO Watchtower.

North Sterling State ParkSterling
Get away from it all with a camping trip under endless prairie skies. Polish your downward dog or attract the area birdlife with your tree pose as the wind rustles through the short grass. (Tip: State parks require camping reservations. Book ahead to avoid harshing your vibe.)

Denver 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, treat yourself to local craft brews in the taproom.

Herbal Essences

Colorado Aromatics FarmLongmont
Book a private tour and stop to smell the organic roses … along with the lavender, calendula, mint and lemon balm. Or, learn how to make bitters and tinctures to take as deliciously scented souvenirs.

Berry Patch FarmsBrighton
Stroll the sprawling fields and pick vibrant bouquets of shaggy lion’s head sunflowers, zinnias and sweet basil, saying “hi” to the free-range chickens and farm dogs as you go.

Spa AnjaliAvon
We’re huge fans of the Westin Riverfront Resort & Spa. Take the Rocky Mountain Spa Journey to be massaged into sublime submission and pampered with a soothing poultice of sage, lavender and pine at their Spa Anjali.

Hopscotch BakeryHopscotch BakeryPueblo
If you find comfort in food, we feel you. Fresh gingersnaps and lavender shortcake provide the oven-baked path to sweet, herbaceous serenity.

Active Recovery

Float Trips, Fort Collins
The Cache la Poudre River slows its flow when it reaches Old Town, making it perfect for a lazy day of tubing. Hop on and off for snacks and cocktails in town. (And heed the few signs that tell you to get out and walk certain areas.)

Adventure Mindful Running Retreats, Boulder
Spend four days racking up mountain mileage, meditating and practicing mindfulness in Boulder’s rugged foothills. Run Mindful retreats are led by pro ultrarunner Timothy Olson and his fam, who share their love of the sport and trails with you.

Mountain Pose YogaCopper Mountain
Let the crisp alpine air shake your chakras to the core as you twist, bend and om. A donation is the only entry cost, but space is limited so reservations are a must.

Footpaths of the WorldEstes Park
If you dream of hiking the Rockies but don’t enjoy thinking about logistics, then this experience was built for you. The Walter Tishma Way offers two to six days of trekking scenic paths with rustic lodges and hot dinners welcoming you in the evenings. Shuttles, maps, trekking poles and most meals are included, and you can book a private guide if that makes you comfier in the great outdoors.

Rocking Relaxation
