Spring
Equinox
|
|
Welcome the
Sunlight!
Celebrate this special moment in a time
of perfect balance between Winter’s darkness and Summer’s light.
Reflect on your mid-winter's hopes and
dreams, then gather those intentions and bring them with you into Spring. As sunshine warms the ground in the coming weeks, plant your dreams and watch them grow.
Imagine the
possibilities.

Record
Breaking Snowfall!
|
|
February's record-breaking snow was so heavy we had no choice but to close Harbin for
a few days. Much of the County was without power or access. With many of Harbin's staff, either snowed in their homes or at Harbin, everyone stepped up from wherever they were located and helped with
creative teamwork and determined dedication to keep the snowed-in guests and staff safe and warm.

Rebuilding
Recent weather kept us busy focusing on safety. But work continues on schedule for the
new dressing room and steam sauna as well as architectural planning for the restaurant. Check our construction noise updates before your visit and please expect noise during the weekdays near the pools. Thank you so much for your patience as we
continue to rebuild.

Harbin Yoga
Visions of Spring bring to mind flowers emerging from earth, chickadees emerging from
eggs, butterflies emerging from cocoons and bears emerging from hibernation with a giant stretch and deep breath.
How are you emerging from your winter?
We invite you to breathe, stretch, and expand fully into your own wholeness this Spring.
Plan a visit and help nurture your own new growth with a Harbin Yoga class. Come celebrate the body and heart with us!

Spring brings celebrations of renewal,
fertility, planting, and emerging from our hibernation caves of Winter. Take some time today if you can to step outside and notice tiny leaves appearing on the ends of branches and green grass on the
hills from Winter's rains. Celebrate the birds chirping and butterflies appearing. Enjoy this moment. We hope you have a Beautiful Day!
With Love,
Harbin Hot
Springs
