A Hot Springs Retreat
Each of us has a goddess within. Not some faraway fantasy that exists as a thing of fiction, impossible to access, but as a sacred self that is lying dormant, perhaps, while always ready to befriend and guide us.
Join Black & Brown Women’s Alliance for a weekend of healing mineral waters, yoga, meditation, sound healing, and more at Joyful Journey Hot Springs in the pristine Sangre de Cristo mountains of Moffat, Colorado, just 3 hours south of Denver. Naturally super-heated by the earth’s active geothermal and hydrothermal activity, Joyful Journey provides a sanctuary for the soul where you can relax and rejuvenate. Connect at your leisure with like-minded sisters on the healing path.
About the Weekend
Enjoy bliss-filled sisterhood and contemplative practices that include:
- guided meditation
- nature walks
- sunrise practice
- earth-based ritual
- unstructured downtime for reflection and restoration
- optional dips into the natural hot springs
All meals are included and most dietary needs – ie gluten free, vegan, vegetarian, etc – can be accommodated.
The soaring presence of the Sangre de Cristo mountains provides the perfect backdrop and foundation for Awakening the Goddess Within. Check-in begins as early as 2pm, and our weekend will officially launch with a welcome dinner at 6pm. Sunday departure by 2pm on Sunday. Learn more and register here.

Aspen-wood furniture lends a rustic touch to your stay and outdoor decks provide remarkable views for stargazing and winding down, shared rooms in The Lodge provide the perfect quiet getaway with the comforts of a resort.
Single: Private yurts are ensconced in nature, defined by their canvas walls, circular shape, and wooden lattice work that creates a unique structure. The fully furnished yurts are spacious and provide a comfortable single accommodation experience. Yurts stand apart from the general area, with a brief walk to the bathrooms and pools. Be advised the bathing facilities and restrooms are NOT located in the yurts, but are a short walk away from these units.
