There is a growing shift toward intentional travel, where experiences are chosen for depth, presence, and meaning rather than escape. In collaboration with The Botanist Islay Dry Gin, crafted with 22 hand-foraged botanicals at the B Corp certified Bruichladdich Distillery on Islay, Room + Wild presents The All You Need Is Now Guide. Rooted in the philosophy that presence is the ultimate luxury, the guide curates transformative moments across landscapes, from geothermal lagoons and mountain onsens to dark-sky reserves, reforestation projects, and art shaped by place, inviting travelers to engage fully with the world as it is, here and now.
Across the globe, wellness rituals are shaped by landscape, climate, and cultural tradition, making healing inseparable from place. From alpine thermal springs and Nordic saunas to Japanese onsens and tropical pools, the body responds to its surrounding environment. Rooted in centuries of practice, these place-based therapies invite deeper connection to the body through the natural world.
Wellness in the wild is shaped by landscape as much as ritual. Forests support immunity and lower stress through natural phytoncides, oceans uplift mood and breathing with negative ions, lagoons calm the nervous system, and mountains sharpen focus through clean air and altitude. When retreats align yoga, meditation, and sensory practices with their natural surroundings, the body responds at a physiological level. Wellness becomes an ecology, inviting a slower pace, deeper presence, and a restored connection between body, mind, and place.
Connection is at the heart of meaningful travel, sparked by shared sensory experiences that awaken the senses and bring people closer. Adults-only landscape hotels amplify this connection, offering coastal cliffs, rainforest retreats, and mountain sanctuaries where architecture, design, and service honor the natural surroundings.
