Menla’s sweat lodge is located in a secluded forested area tucked away down by the stream. Traditional sweat lodges are deeply healing and spiritually enriching Native American ceremonies. Since they take a lot of work to prepare, and most of our lodge leaders do not live in the local area, these must be booked as far in advance as possible. Ceremonies usually include traditional prayers and songs, and the intentions or wishes for each specific round of the lodge are spoken aloud.
“Always a great stay at Menla. Staff very helpful. Programs excellent. I greatly enjoyed seeing Robert Thurman, Sharon Salzberg and Krishna Das together. A truly auspicious place. Visit and find out for yourself.”

“Homerun. One of the best retreats I’ve ever attended. Was an incredible treat especially to have so much access to Krishna Das, and I will never forget the Robert Thurman’s hysterical and insightful words. Incredibly inspiring and powerful weekend!”

“I have been all over the world and this spa is by far my most favorite. The service, the facilities and the kindness is beyond my past experience. I recommend going to Menla and making the Spa your first stop every day.”
