Tulum, Mexico

All-inclusive resorts and adventurous excursions are what typically come to mind when picturing a Mexico getaway. However, to find our next destination we have to go back to the time of the ancient Mayans. Nestled along the beaches of Tulum is YÄAN Wellness, a spa that brings authentic Mayan practices to a modern world. Local healers come together at YÄAN to merge modern spa practices with massage, mysticism and herbal medicines, resulting in a one-of-a-kind experience not soon to be forgotten.

Thailand draws in globe trotters with martial arts, great eats, sandy beaches and ancient temples. In addition to its historical charm, Thailand is also a hotspot for wellness as Thai culture is sometimes referred to as a gateway to health and happiness. One popular wellness-inspired attraction is the Thailand Wellness Adventures where travelers embark on a 13 day trek through the city and countryside of Chiang Mai. Those who join in on the adventure will enjoy daily yoga and meditation, scrumptious cooking courses, animal encounters and a unique tour of the Bamboo Forest.

Not only does Canada have beautiful, rustic scenery and tons of local wildlife for nature lovers to enjoy, it’s also on trend with many of the latest and greatest wellness crazes.
