Sycamore Mineral Springs Resort, near San Luis Obispo, California Aziza's BLISS Wellness Journeys are the perfect antidote to a busy life of schedules, obligations and restlessness. If you need a break, if you need to find balance, if you need to realign your energy back to yourself, if you are curious about local areas of interest, if you long for healing touch, yearn to behold natural beauty, if you just want to BE, come join us and find yourself again. Elizabeth Gilbert introduced us to the Italian phrase 'Il bel far niente', the beauty of doing nothing, in her acclaimed book Eat Pray Love. In Italy, " the more exquisitely and delightfully you can do nothing, the higher your life's achievement." Bliss is surrendering to the new art form of doing nothing all week long! Sycamore Mineral Springs Resort is conveniently situated halfway between Los Angeles and San Francisco near the rugged Pacific coastline of Avila Beach. It hosts generous suites, private hot tubs, professional Spa, fine dining and fantastic leisure opportunities that support deep relaxation and reconnection with your body and spirit. Our Bliss Wellness Journeys offer programs that combine relaxed creativity, reflection, body awareness, rest and nature into a symphony of healing potential. This pampering wellness week includes daily Yoga, Tai Chi or Pilates classes, deeply restorative spa treatments preceded by half hour mineral spring hot tub soaks, local hikes to the Pacific coast, an extensive labyrinth that beckons a meditative stroll, and gorgeous gourmet meals. Enjoy a day off to adventure on wine tasting tours, beach combing or sea kayaking by sunset . Or simply one spa treatment after another! All this is to be found in the rich, natural embrace of our surroundings. All activities are voluntary- you are encouraged to listen to what you feel you truly desire at each turn, and choose what is best for you. Redefine 'Being' by checking in with what you really want or need at any time, and then follow the call of your bliss. The retreat includes private time to integrate what you learn as you relax into the natural beauty surrounding us and master discovering the beauty of doing nothing. Be prepared to live your life more fully than you dared to dream was possible. April 26 - 30 -Space still left!
