Did the holidays leave you more stressed out than relaxed? For those with the time and money, an eco-friendly vacation to Malibu may be in order — like the New Year’s Renewal Retreat with organic spa treatments, yoga classes, and yummy healthy food happening in Malibu, Calif., next week.

 

Put together by mobile green beauty company GreenBliss EcoSpa and YogaWorks, the New Year’s Renewal Retreat’s a one-day event happening at a private retreat ranch on Jan. 16. Participants will be pampered with facials, massages, and mani-pedis, take workshops on everything from “sustainable Feng Shui” to Ayurvedic cooking and eating, stretch away the stress in yoga classes, and enjoy a healthy Ayurvedic lunch made by Chef Cristina Urioste of Rasa Foods.

 

The retreat costs $450 — or $399 if you sign up with a friend — but includes a gift bag which organizers say is filled with $350 worth of green lifestyle products. Still think that’s too expensive? Then give your own new year’s renewal retreat at home by giving yourself a DIY facial with homemade facial masks.
