It’s often said that vacations are all about the mind, body and soul. So it would make sense that travelers look to combine their breaks with restful practices all in one. One of these is eastern medicine – an area that can take many forms, including; meditation, Ayurveda practices and homoeopathy, for instance.
Whether you’re looking to experience the benefits of alternative practices from the comfort of your luxury villa rental, or out and about, we’ve got it covered.
Our team of well-travelled experts have compiled five of the most talked about destinations, fueling wellbeing travel in 2021.
With an abundance of nature and beauty at your feet, you don’t need to venture far in this northwest province to find soothing surroundings. It’s the perfect destination for putting wellbeing front and center; from its tranquil waters offering prime surf conditions, to its unchartered forests - the perfect place for yoga and meditation. But if you don’t fancy trekking too far, many of the luxury villa rentals Costa Rica, include movement and yoga teachers that will come to you. This popular eastern practice is transformative in so many ways, and can be enjoyed at a number of private retreats and homes, including Villa Kamala.
When you think of Miami, it’s easy to think about the glitzy bars and luxury villas Miami beach is known for. But, with its long stretch of golden sand and calming gentle waves, it’s also an idyllic spot for reconnecting with your inner-self. Waterside meditation is one of the popular pastimes that locals partake in. This includes full moon yoga in the Coral Gables, as well as floating meditation on South Beach, and all that’s in between. Better still, bring your own mat and chillout podcast, and you can enjoy the tranquility of Miami wherever you find yourself.
Hedonism and spirituality come together on this magical island, that has become somewhat of a refuge for eastern practices. Whether you choose to hire an acupuncturist to visit your Ibiza villa rental, or if you’d prefer to trek to the hills to howl at the moon (really), you can find every kind of movement here, that you’re truly spoilt for choice. One practice growing in popularity is the ‘goddess retreat’ – a women-only gathering with a focus on holistic practices and transformative healing. These usually take place over five to seven days, so make sure you’re ready to get in the zone.
Angelinos are known for their love of clean living and personal wellbeing. Where else can you start the day with yoga on the beach and end it with a hike in Runyon Canyon? This is a city where eastern medicines and alternative therapies are welcomed with open A-list arms. As such, there’s no shortages of chakra retreats inviting you to rebalance and realign. Best of all, when you’re done, it’s all back to your Hollywood luxury home rental to chill out. The perfect vacay, some might say.
Tucked away in the ice-capped mountains of Switzerland, not far from the lure of Lake Geneva, you’ll find a haven for wellbeing rest and relaxation. Here you can fully immerse yourself in eastern medicine and practices, which promise to revitalize the body and mind. The Guerlain Wellness Institute is a popular choice for visitors, that brings its five-star setting with traditional and alternative therapies on offer.
When it’s time to break away and fully indulge in wellbeing, Global Luxury Villas offers some of the most luxurious properties near popular eastern medicine activities.
