We are all born to strive for something and work hard until our dreams become realized. And because of that, we get burned out from time to time and that is normal. Sometimes, we feel tired of almost everything that happens in our job, relationships, financial status, and social standing and we only want to quit but we know that we cannot give up despite the distress we are feeling. That thought lingers on your mind when all the stress crawls up to your throat as if you can taste the dark colors on your working desk. There are days that you only want to rest and lay down on your bed the whole day and nurture that deep-seated pain you are feeling while you aimlessly try to find your purpose.
Does the familiar feeling of stress call you? If the answer is yes, then you need to experience a wellness retreat. It is travel for the purpose of promoting one’s physical, emotional, psychological, and spiritual being.
Most people recognize the need to relax and focus on their own well-being once in while and at the same time, spend their money on meaningful activities that will be beneficial for them that they resort to going to a wellness retreat but what benefits does a wellness retreat brings you?
People have a different approach to recharging oneself but a wellness retreat, for one, is different from other camping or outdoor activities you may think of. It is far more different than excursions and other group hiking that other people do when they feel the need to be away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
A wellness retreat is a holistic way of healing not just your body but also your soul by allowing yourself to be fully present and engaged in the moment. You may go somewhere quiet and peaceful where you are guided to concentrate more on your personal healing. A place where you connect more deeply to your inner zen because of its serene ambiance. When you start your wellness retreat journey, it is always best that you allow yourself to unplug from the busy world.
Here are eight essential reasons why you need to choose a wellness resort to your journey to healing and self-restoration:

Your meals are carefully prepared by the best and trained chefs as they are very particular with a clean diet that you may be able to adapt when you return home.
Your body moves in a healthy way as exercise is also part of the wellness retreat. You will feel your body feel good, your breathing becomes easy, your blood pressure normalizes, and feel good with your heart rate elevated.
You enjoy well-structured leisure. A wellness retreat is a combination of doing and not doing to give you the maximum opportunity to enjoy and to lean at your pace at your time.
You experience healing and revival on a wellness retreat. The lessons you learned on your retreat, combined with the time and space to reflect on them and develop positive new habits, contribute to overall improvements in wellness in your life that can generate exponential growth potential.
For spiritual and self-discovery type of wellness retreat, you will be interacting with a guide or a teacher as you complete a certain workshop or talks most of the time. You will learn things that you can apply to your life as you explore new changes to take place after your wellness retreat.
You start to break your old bad habits and replace it with new and healthier habits that speaks volume about self-love.

A wellness retreat will teach you to practice mindfulness through yoga and meditation to help enhance your decision-making skills.
A study published in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine took one week of a holistic wellness retreat with a blend of educational, therapeutic, and leisure activities and a mostly plant-based diet. The researchers compared guests’ weight, waistlines, blood pressure, and other measurements at the beginning and end of the retreat and repeated the same six weeks later. They discovered that retreat experiences can lead to statistically substantial improvements in health and well-being after the guests returned home.
In addition to this study, retreats are commonly located in natural environments, and considerable evidence suggests that exposure to natural environments results in enhanced physical, mental, social, and spiritual health. It affects the guests’ improved air quality, exercise, social connection, and stress reduction and is further strengthened by health retreat activities such as yoga, meditation, mindfulness, t'ai chi, and massage. Eating healthy food, like a plant-based diet or organically produced food, also contributes to the health improvements of the guests.
