Wellness-focused New Year’s Eve experience at Arizona’s award-winning, all-inclusive wellness retreat, Castle Hot Springs

Nestled in Arizona’s Bradshaw Mountains, the 1,100-acre resort draws on Eastern medicine and the healing energy of the desert to guide guests through a full-body reset surrounded by stunning cliffs and geothermal hot springs. This year, Castle Hot Springs will offer a regenerative two-day ritual series, ‘Release & Receive,’ designed to restore balance and invite mindful renewal for the year ahead. Perfect for travelers trading late-night champagne toasts for a more mindful way to welcome the year ahead, the resort offers a deeply restorative start to 2026:

Release & Receive at Castle Hot Springs (December 31, 2025 – January 1, 2026)

• New Year’s Eve Breath & Sound: A Regenerative Ritual – To close out the year, Castle Hot Springs invites guests to look inward with a guided breath and sound immersion rooted in the science of the vagus nerve toning to reset the body’s parasympathetic “rest and digest” system. Through vibration, breathwork, and intention-setting, participants are guided to release what no longer serves them and open space for clarity, peace, and vitality in the year ahead. 

• New Year’s Day Stillness & Script: An Intention-Setting Meditation – On New Year’s Day, guests can ring in the new year with a morning of contemplative quiet. Led by the resort’s expert wellness practitioners, Stillness & Script combines journaling and guided meditation to help participants inhabit the clear mental space created the night before to align resolutions into resounding intentions for the year to come.

Available individually or as a two-day series, these experiences reflect Castle Hot Springs’ specialty in holistic, nature-based, and regenerative wellness – where stillness and the body’s natural rhythms guide guests on a transformative journey.
