The premier Canyon Ranch experience! This Immersion includes 14 expert-led talks on the science and practice of change and 7 one-on-one services with an integrative team of experts where you get to focus on your unique goals. Also, you’ll have access to dedicated activities, unlimited dining, full access to our spa and fitness facilities, and everything else our Lenox resort offers. We believe this is the most comprehensive way to make changes in your life that stick.

Why attend? Because changing your behavior is vital to having the life that you want. But it can be hard when you want to make long-term improvements to your life. In order to avoid slipping back into patterns that don’t serve you, we designed this retreat to be the reset or the kickstart to get you on track.

During this week, you will be guided through transformative change using evidence-based methodologies led by a team of Canyon Ranch experts. Meet like-minded people who will inspire you during this unique, Canyon Ranch Lenox event. And you'll receive personalized insights, practical skills, and effective tools to adopt beneficial new habits.

Whether you’re focused on a wellness concern, weight loss, athletic performance, or need a healthy living reboot, you’ll take home a road map designed around your needs and goals to develop enduring practices that will turn your intentions into a lifelong reality.
