Namasté Healing

Namasté Healing & Wellness sits at 1260 Bergen Parkway in Evergreen, Colorado, where the high altitude and quiet are meant to serve what the center calls physical, mental, emotional and spiritual transformation. Denisa and Sarah created it, in the words of the center's own pages, out of a desire to share the passion for exploring the Self through inner experiences and the ways the body heals itself, given the right opportunity.

The space is built around light. Two studios, a lounge, a kitchen and healing rooms all take in a good deal of natural light, and the studio has doors to the outside for fresh air. Certified practitioners work there in alternative and complementary healing, alongside meditation and yoga classes, workshops and retreats. Classes are open to beginners and experienced meditators alike, and are kept small. The space can also be rented for events, workshops, trainings, filming, birthdays and weddings, and practitioners looking for a room can inquire.

Retreats are the center's signature, and the limit is firm: no more than eight people. A three-day Colorado retreat runs from morning to mid-afternoon each day and pairs daily yoga or meditation with a private healing session chosen from modalities such as Tibetan cranial work, vibrational sound healing, therapeutic massage, energy healing and Reiki. Days include an aroma therapy footbath, excursions to sacred sites when weather permits, and a homemade vegetarian breakfast and lunch. Lodging is separate. Shorter half-day retreats follow the same pattern.

The center's pages list retreat dates stretching back to November 2016, including a silence retreat in February 2017 and a single session held in Carlsbad, California, in 2019. The ambition grew beyond Colorado in 2022 with Mountains & Monasteries, a sixteen-day pilgrimage through Kathmandu and the Everest Khumbu region, ending at Kala Patthar for sunrise over Everest. It was guided in partnership with Ian Taylor Trekking, prefaced by preparatory workshops at the studio, and sold out.
