4-Day Desert Hot Springs Yoga & Hot Mineral Springs Wellness Escape

This Body Flows retreat offers a unique blend of wellness activities in the stunning desert setting of Desert Hot Springs, California. The retreat is set at the Azure Palm Hot Springs Resort, perched on Miracle Hill with panoramic views of Mt. San Jacinto and the Coachella Valley. The resort is known for its natural hot mineral springs, which have been cherished for their therapeutic properties for centuries. Guests can soak in the mineral pools, enjoy a Finnish sauna, serene Himalayan salt room, and a natural reflexology walkway, all designed to enhance relaxation and healing.

The daily program is thoughtfully curated to balance movement and rest. Mornings begin with an energizing Vinyasa flow yoga class that integrates breath-with-movement, followed by a healthy, gourmet breakfast. Midday offers opportunities for guided desert hikes on nearby nature trails, where you can explore the unique flora and fauna of the Mojave Desert. Afternoons provide free time to relax, indulge in a spa treatment, or explore nearby attractions like Palm Springs or Joshua Tree National Park. Evenings wind down with a soothing Yin or Restorative yoga class and a delicious dinner.
