Summer Has Arrived!

Our blog activity has been quiet, of late, because we have been recuperating from the mad rush and flurry of activity that preceeded the May 30th Bridal Fair and Open House. Since that successful day, spring headed out the door, and summer was ushered in. Typical of the low-lying coastal regions of San Diego, May Gray and June Gloom have been dampening the spirits of many unsuspecting tourists. Fortunately, what all of this precipitation and humidity means is that the surrounding hills and magnificent fields of San Diego County have yet to turn from emerald green to velvety brown. Up at the Hidden Valley, the dense clouds of marine layer tend to break earlier in the morning, and a warm sun marches across the sky for a majority of the day.

Since the spring, we have continued to make upgrades to our property and its facilities. We are also eagerly awaiting the September nuptials of Eric and Marie, our lovely contest winners from Montana. However, the Hidden Valley is a popular venue that is fully-booked for the remainder of these summer days. Our guests include the Gay and Lesbian Task Force to family reunions and small weddings. Only two weeks ago, the Hidden Valley Retreat and Spa welcomed the Healing Gardens of Orange County, an Ayurvedic, natural health and healing organization that presented a Panchakarma Retreat. During their stay, guests were encouraged to relax and unwind amidst our nature spa's peace and tranquility with sunrise yoga, natural foods, personalized therapies, live music chanting, meditation, and more.

We look forward to hosting more of these events, as well as yours. If there is anything that we can do for you, then please let us know. Otherwise, we look forward to seeing you up at the Hidden Valley, - a treasure trove that is waiting to be discovered by you!

The Legendary Daughter of Dr. Paul C. Bragg Visits The Hidden Valley

On October 6th, 2008, Patricia Bragg, daughter of Dr. Paul C. Bragg the renowned founder of the American Health Movement, visited the Hidden Valley Retreat and Spa. The vivacious and spunky Patricia, who maintains the secret of her year of birth, is a Life Extension Nutritionist. She has authored 22 Self-Health Books, and she has lectured as a health educator internationally. Heralding the march of a dynamic health crusade, Patricia has served as a fitness advisor to world leaders, Hollywood stars, singers, dancers and athletes.

On this autumn day, however, Patricia was found spiritedly traversing the rolling hillsides, private walking trails, and organic gardens of our backyard while reminiscing upon her memories of this sacred landscape that date back to Dr. Bernard Jensen’s tenure.

Spinning wild tales and offering sage advice, Patricia had this to say of her afternoon visit:

“The Hidden Valley is the perfect nature spa to recharge the body, mind, and soul!”
