Santa Fe—also known as “The City Different” and”The Land of Enchantment”—is rated one of the best and healthiest places to live in the United States! From the breath taking sunsets to the wide open spaces the long standing romance of the southwest is undeniable.

Santa Fe enjoys a semi-arid climate, and due to the 7,000 ft. elevation, summers are often mild with warm sunny days and cool breezy nights. Because of Santa Fe’s location—nestled between the Sangre de Cristo Mountains to the east and the Jemez Mountains to the west—winters are usually mild, although we do get snow and the nights can go down below freezing.

Although the high altitude can require an adjustment, the low humidity and clear blue skies make the Santa Fe climate ideal. With it’s rich heritage and beautiful, diverse landscape, Santa Fe is a beacon for many artists as well as those seeking healing. There are numerous skilled practitioners available to compliment your visit, as well as support your personal growth and physical well-being. (References available.)

Georgia O’Keeffe Ghost Ranch
Education & Retreat Center

ghostranch.org • 505.685.1000 • Toll Free: 877.804.4678

Ghost Ranch gave her the freedom to paint what she saw and felt. Knowledgeable visitors can look around and identify many of the scenes she painted. Red and gray hills like those across from the roadside park south of the Ranch headquarters were frequent subjects. Kitchen Mesa at the upper end of the valley is an example of the red and yellow cliffs she painted many times. Pedernal, the flat-topped mountain to the south, was probably her favorite subject. “It’s my private mountain,” she said. “God told me if I painted it often enough I could have it.” And of course, the Ghost Ranch logo, used on everything from stationery to T-shirts, was adapted from an O’Keeffe drawing the artist had given to Arthur Pack in the 1930′s.

Ten Thousand Waves

tenthousandwaves.com • 505.982.9304

The tradition of bathing in hot water goes back millennia due to the abundance of thermal waters in Japan. The Japanese learned early on about the powerful healing and release gained by sitting in hot water surrounded by the beauty of nature. Ten Thousand Waves has taken this model and transplanted it to New Mexico, where nature looks very different but is no less beautiful.  We offer a unique ‘Japanese-adobe’ esthetic, combining the traditional with state-of-the-art technology.

Our humble beginning was a small bathhouse, eight outdoor hot tubs, and one massage room back in 1981. The emphasis has always been on the salutary effects of hot water. The Japanese bath tradition is mostly about winding down from the day, meeting friends, taking time off with the family, and relaxing. The health benefits are bonuses. Everything is provided at a traditional Japanese inn–including amazing food and lodging.
