September 2023 Serenity Desert Retreat at Capitol Reef National Park


  • Red Sands Hotel and Spa 670 East Highway 24 Torrey, UT, 84775 United States (map)

HEAL Studio is pleased to offer our first 5 day, 4 night Desert Serenity Yoga Retreat with PRIVATE accommodations located at the Red Sands Hotel and Spa in Torrey, Utah. Plan on trips to Capitol Reef National Park, Fish Lake and to meet Pando, the world’s largest Aspen clone, as well as spa time, nature and hotel amenities.

Join us in the desert of Torrey, Utah for a serenity HEALing yoga retreat!

Our Yoga Retreats focus on HEALing.

Join us for a weekend of serenity, healing, and renewal.  Nature surrounds this well appointed hotel located in the small town of Torrey, Utah.  Easy to find from the highway, enjoy quiet solitude with guided yoga, meditation and plenty of free time for reflection in a tranquil landscape.  At HEAL, we believe that in order to HEAL the world, we must first HEAL ourselves, and our yoga retreats focus on just that. This retreat will encourage and empower attendees to take ownership of HEALing in body and mind, and to create an awareness of how powerful nature’s role can be in personal growth and fulfillment. We will have trauma-informed yoga as well as some somatic practices available during this retreat.

INSTRUCTORS:  

This retreat is being planned and led by Bethany Forest, owner of HEAL, and Heather Heather Bloomquist, manager of HEAL.  To learn more about these instructors, click HERE.
