February comes from the word februa, meaning purification. Februa is derived from Februus, the god of purification. We thought it might be a good month to look into locations around this beautiful country that cleanse the spirit and will leave you with a positive outlook and a renewed sense of energy and peace.
Washington State – Mt. Adams: Native Americans believed that this mountain has spiritual energy and an energy vortex. Climbers and visitors to the mountain have said they have come away from the visit with a sense of peace. Book a glamping cabin or yurt at Thousand Trails Paradise in Silver Creek, and you’re less than an hour’s drive from Mt. Adams, which is one of five volcanoes in Washington’s Cascade Mountains.
They didn’t call it the Fountain of Youth for nothing. Did you know that St. Augustine, Florida, the alleged site of the alleged fountain that Ponce De Leon was looking for is considered a “hotbed of spiritual energy?” Book a stay at Encore Bulow and roam the streets of this historic town, feeling younger with every step.
Arizona – Sedona: Sedona’s spirituality comes from the many vortexes that are found here, seven of which are considered some of the most spiritual. Those include Bell Rock and Cathedral Rock which can be reached via a beautiful hike in the Red Rock State Park found here. Book a stay at Thousand Trails Verde Valley and cleanse your spirit in this beautiful Arizona desert.
It’s no surprise that California’s Joshua Tree National Park is on anyone’s list when it comes to spiritual quests. The Joshua tree itself is a symbol of faith, determination and spiritual growth so that tracks! Other reasons to head here for a spirit cleanse, is the awe-inspiring landscape and of course, the 18 known vortexes found here. Glamp at Thousand Trails Palm Springs to be near Joshua Tree National Park.
Yurts: An easy way to find a spiritual retreat is to book a stay in any one of our yurts, which you can find at our glamping locations in California, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Washington and Wisconsin. In many cultures, yurts are considered spiritual, in part due to their circular shape, which is considered sacred geometry. The domed roof of the yurt is also considered as a nod to spiritually as it is said to be built in the shape of the Wheel of Dharma, which symbolizes the path to enlightenment.
