Keep reading to learn more about how to create your own wellness retreat.
1. Clarify Your Goal for the Retreat
Everyone has a reason for planning a retreat. Before booking your stay, decide what your focus is. Maybe you’re looking for an active reset, complete with fitness classes and nutritious eating. You could be looking for a creative reawakening through art classes, cooking workshops, and nature photography. You can also create a retreat that’s focused on rest and recharge, with slow mornings, light activity, and spa treatments.
2. Choose the Right Property
It’s also important you choose the right resort for your getaway. Both of our Poconos resorts are exceptional, but one might fit your needs better than the other. The Lodge at Woodloch is home to gourmet spa cuisine, a luxury spa, and daily wellness classes. Woodloch, which still features fitness and outdoor offerings, is a great option for those traveling with kids.
3. Build Your Schedule
Once you know what you want out of your retreat and where you’ll be staying, start crafting your schedule. Each of our resorts in Pennsylvania features daily classes and activities, so you can fine-tune your itinerary once you receive this information. During your stay, be sure not to overschedule yourself, and leave room to simply relax. However, we recommend creating a morning-midday-evening rhythm of activities.
For example, at The Lodge at Woodloch, you can enjoy sunrise yoga followed by a healthy breakfast and a morning walk. In the afternoon, book spa treatments, have lunch, and then check out an art workshop. End your day with meditation and a gourmet dinner before turning in early.
