Wellness Retreats On My Travel Radar

I’ve been in my wellness era on and off for the past few years. Sometimes I’m 10,000% in and other times I’m just dipping my toe in and simply taking better care of myself. Right now is one of those times where my wellness is super important, it’s the whole vibe, it’s the moment, and it’s something I just won’t sacrifice. While doing some stuff for the good old blog, I ran across various wellness retreats and resorts with a focus on restoration and rejuvenation. Needless to say, it sent me down a pretty significant rabbit hole and left me with a giant travel bucket list.

What I love most of all about the places here is how different they are in not only what they provide, but in where they are. They let guests seek tranquility amongst nature or spend time indulging in busy cities. It means no matter what the setting, there is a place to embark on a journey of self-discovery, and well-being, and emerge refreshed, revitalized, and ready to embrace life’s infinite possibilities.
