Scouted Wellness Retreats You Should Know About

Originally published by THE SCOUT GUIDE on June 15, 2022.

We are deep into the age of self care, where no longer is the act of taking care of yourself considered an indulgence, but a necessity for living a healthy and joy-filled life. For those looking for ways to continue or begin a commitment to self care, we asked The Scout Guide editors to recommend wellness retreats that have the power to restore, reinvigorate, and renew the mind, body, and spirit. From an adventure-focused getaway in Iceland and transformative experience in Morocco to girlfriend gatherings in Virginia and restorative pampering in Pennsylvania, this collection of wellness retreats are just want you need to recommit to yourself. To find a scouted wellness ritual near you, visit the The Scout Guide Directory.
