<br />
<span style="color: #4a4a4a; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, 'Bitstream Vera Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">My wife had just undergone a month of chemo and radiation treatment for uterine cancer (complete hysterectomy three months before) and was scheduled to start a three-month round of intensive chemo in about a month. I thought it would be nice to take her to one of her favorite spas in Desert Hot Springs for a night off; we have about 75 animals, dogs, cats, birds, etc., so one night off is a big deal for her. I was going to book us in at one of the spas we'd been to before, but on a whim I decided to look at the top rated spas in the area--and there was Living Waters rated #1. There was just one small hitch--it was clothing optional. My wife is pretty open minded so I called up and started the reservation process with Jeff, but about half way through I thought I had better consult with my wife, so I trudged to the "bird room" to run it by her. At first she was ok with it but then thought about her recent hysterectomy scars and changed her mind. But after a couple minute chat with Jeff, she changed her answer to "yes", with certain reservations. That is she got to put on a one-piece bathing suit if she wasn't comfortable being naked around other people.</span><br />
<br style="color: #4a4a4a; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, 'Bitstream Vera Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;" />
<span style="color: #4a4a4a; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, 'Bitstream Vera Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">Five minutes after we arrived in Living Waters she was totally ok with being a nudist, so to speak, because of Judy and Jeff's open minded attitude. They especially make you feel right at home in the spa having drinks with them at 3:00. There was also a much larger swimming pool that has a cooler temperature where you can cool off after being in the spa. The resort is clean and spacious, well appointed, and the rooms are reasonably large and comfortable. We spent a very pleasant afternoon and evening in an ambiance of openness and cordiality that was lacking in any other spa we had been to--just what my wife was looking for. </span><br />
<br style="color: #4a4a4a; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, 'Bitstream Vera Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;" />
<span style="color: #4a4a4a; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, 'Bitstream Vera Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">There were 8 or 9 other couples there and within minutes it was as if several of us had known each other a long time. We had never found that kind of atmosphere at any other spa. My wife enjoyed herself so much that she wants to go back at least once during her next round of chemo even if she has no hair. The ambiance is that open and accepting. </span><br />

I'd have to say that since that time we've "heard it all" in the form of questions from potential guests. Here are some commonly asked questions and our answers.</span><br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-family: Arial;">Clothing Optional... what it's all about</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">Our facility is completely private and "European style" clothing-optional. You are encouraged to soak in our healing mineral waters au naturel and enjoy this total immersion in nature. For generations Europeans have visited the "spas" and have sunbathed nude. We Americans are now realizing how relaxing this "nude recreation" can be. Swimsuit optional vacations are now becoming common for us and we are discovering what our European friends have known all along -- such simple nudity is total freedom. We've designed our place to give "first timers" the best clothes free experience possible. At Living Waters Spa we provide you the coolest vacation souvenir of all: no tan-lines!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>FAQ's (Frequently Asked Questions)</b></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"><b><i>What do you mean by "European Style Clothing Optional?"</i></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">For years Europeans have had a more self-accepting view of the body than Americans. They understand that simple nudity is just that - simple nudity. Consequently they are not ashamed of going "au naturel" when at the spa. We have found once people try it they discover a new found joy. To float, swim, soak or sunbathe without any restrictions is a luxurious and free feeling. At <b><span style="color: blue;">Living Waters Spa</span></b> you are welcome to enjoy our entire facility sans-clothing -- most do -- but it is up to you. There is no pressure...after all, you are on vacation or as they say in Europe: "holiday!"</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"><b><i>We are interested in trying "clothing optional" but we are worried about other people finding out and not understanding. Will our privacy be guarded?</i></b></span><br />

Little did we know that the worst economic times were just around the corner...<br /><br />But we made it! 10 years of helping people learn that nude does not mean lewd; that swimming / soaking in mineral water feels fantastic (and is good for you too); and that massage should be transportive and healing.<br /><br />To celebrate, we are having a big 10th Anniversary Party on November 9. We will be providing a great Italian dinner and wine tasting experience.

<span style="background-color: font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">We just discovered this amazing website where the goal is to help women realize that they ARE beautiful just as they are...

Living Waters Spa is a paradise for those of us who just
want to live out the day au naturel, absorbing the SoCal sun and relaxing with
books, conversation and a cold beverage along the way, in a safe, comfortable,
hassle-free environment. My wife and I are occasional visitors to San Diego's
Blacks Beach and do enjoy a skinny dip in our own backyard pool when
circumstances allow, but we are rookies to the clothing-optional spa
experience, and Living Waters Spa (LWS) has ensured that we will very quickly
become veterans. We're so enamored of the place, in fact, that we booked a
return visit just several weeks hence before we’d even checked out.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-S0zVuu5j1AU/UbYJ4VQNZKI/AAAAAAAAAX8/qH0f-B2tp_8/s1600/Living_Waters_Spa_Ready_for_YOU.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-S0zVuu5j1AU/UbYJ4VQNZKI/AAAAAAAAAX8/qH0f-B2tp_8/s1600/Living_Waters_Spa_Ready_for_YOU.JPG" height="307" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
What LWS is not: As the owners, through their website,
promotional materials, and responses in this forum, make clear, LWS is NOT a
"hook up" joint. It is not for those looking for a party by the pool.
And it is not a large facility that accommodates enough guests to fill a small
village. LWS will not tolerate sexual activity in its public spaces - though it
certainly does allow, and even blesses, public displays of affection that would
be appropriate in any other public setting, and it certainly has no issue with
its overnight guests getting a groove on in the blinds-closed privacy of their
poolside suites or adjacent condos. LWS expects that noise from guests be
limited to normal conversational tones. LWS does pipe in music through its
poolside sound system, but you'll find only the soft sounds of relaxation
tracks and not the manic beats of a DJ club mix.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
What LWS is: LWS is a spa, built for the purpose of rest
& relaxation, sans clothing, in a private, peaceful and intimate setting.
It is a reclaimed mid-century motor hotel formerly known as Kismet Lodge (and
still proudly displays the original neon marquee bearing that name). The main
property is a U-shaped structure with eight guest rooms and a massage studio
surrounding two pools, through which naturally heated mineral water flows
constantly from an underground source. The "small" pool is the warmer
of the two (I'm guessing 100 degrees Fahrenheit) and is protected from the
summer sun by an overhead canopy. The large pool below, which receives its
in-flow of water from the smaller pool courtesy the natural tug of gravity, has
full exposure to the day's sun and (I’d guess) sits at a very comfortable 90
degrees. The public area around the two pools is comfortable but quaint, so
don't come looking for room to run around. Even then, if all of the 20 or so
lounge chairs by the pool and on the sun deck were full of bodies, each guest
would have ample personal space. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
My wife and I stayed in Room 8 - a "corner" suite
with full kitchen situated at one end of the "U," not more than
twelve feet from the pool - and absolutely loved it. As with the rest of the property, the room
reflects the spa's mid-century heritage but is very well maintained, very
clean, and very comfortable (especially the custom-designed king bed). With the
full kitchen (most of the units have them), we were able to bring all of our
own food and drink and never leave the spa's protective walls, meaning we could
savor the bliss of non-stop nakedness from arrival to departure. The rooms are
not large, and neither are the bathrooms, but the quarters are certainly
spacious enough for two people with a reasonable sense of proportion, and
especially for those who prefer to spend their time doing what they've paid for
- relaxing in and beside the pools under the sun during the day and the stars
at night. For guests who need more living space, LWS also owns six 2-bedroom
spa condos just across the street (but also outside the protective walls of the
spa proper, meaning you have to don shorts and tee shirt at least twice a day).<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We also discovered almost immediately upon arrival that the
signature LWS massage, especially when done in the couples format, is a little
slice of heaven on earth. And lest you
think any "funny business" might take place, know going in that the
LWS massage therapists are (a) fully clothed and (b) consummately professional
in every respect. And they are very good at what they do. Very well worth the
extra splurge, especially when you know your "sweetie" is receiving
the very same treatment just a few feet away (something you should take at
least a little time to observe when the position of your own body on the table
allows).<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Other touches include: A personal greeting at the front gate
by Jeff, Judy or one of the staff when you arrive (and be prepared for their
wrap-towels to fall away, and your clothing-optional experience to begin, as
soon as the gate closes behind you); continental-style breakfast from 8:00 to
10:00 each morning (complete with fresh-brewed coffee made from fresh-ground
Starbucks beans); and beverages with light snacks in the warmth of the small
pool at 3:00 each day. Overnight guests who have checked out of their rooms are
welcome to extend their stay on the grounds until 5:00pm, when the spa closes
to day-use customers; while departing guests whose rooms are not otherwise
booked by incoming guests can remain in their rooms all the way up to 5:00.
And, of course, we can’t forget the beautiful, panoramic view of Mt. San
Jacinto, which towers almost 11,000 over the Coachella Valley floor below.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
If you're a newcomer who is, as we were, at least a smidge
apprehensive at the thought of making conversation with strangers while nude in
three feet of water, don't worry. We found the apprehension melting away almost
immediately upon our noontime arrival, and it was long gone by the time we
finished our 1:30 massages and made our way to the first 3:00 refreshment break
of our stay.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
You can tell by now that my wife and I left LWS with nothing
but excitement for the clothing-optional spa experience and gratitude that we
live close enough to return anytime and every time we wish. Jeff & Judy
(and Lily & Kat), thank you for making our first time - and our wedding
anniversary to boot! - a very special experience. <o:p></o:p></div>

The waters in the mineral pool and the spa are very healing. Every time we spend a day or two in these waters, we feel rejuvenated, but who wouldn't, sitting in some of the most mineral rich water in the world, surrounded by blue skies, fresh air, palm trees and scenic mountain views? The rooms and facilities are impeccable and I attribute that to the owners' - Jeff and Judy’s - high standards. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: #d0e0e3;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br style="background-color: Bitstream Vera Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;" /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">Living Waters offers many different types of massage packages, which are an added bonus to a couple of days of relaxation. They offer a fantastic little continental breakfast and also have a gas grill on premises if we want to do a little barbecuing. And let me not forget; some rooms have kitchenettes which are very helpful if we don't feel like dining out. </span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: #d0e0e3;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;" /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">Each time we return to Living Waters we are greeted like old friends who are back in town. The folks we've run into at the resort all seem to be respectful and mature. The pool and common areas are always quiet and serene so that maximum relaxation is possible. No cell phones are going off. It's just such a relaxing vibe. My girlfriend is fairly new to the clothing optional scene and kind of shy, but has found it easy, natural and freeing to walk around in her birthday suit at Living Waters Spa. There's not another feeling like it in the world. I would highly recommend this spa to anyone who would like to take advantage of the healing waters and relaxation of Desert Hot Springs in a beautiful, serene setting. </span></span><br />

feels absolutely amazing. The traditional sauna adds to the overall experience
of relaxation.</div>

Yeah I couldn't resist the "NUDE" part. May this year be a good one for all of us... and may you enjoy some time just in your "skin" as well.<br />
<br />
I saw an article today entitled "My Sexual Resolutions." I was intrigued so I read it. The very last point the author stated:<br />
<br />
"I am not “a naked person.” I do not share dressing rooms with friends, take it all off at the women’s sauna or go skinny dipping on a lark. Even disrobing for a massage feels improper. I’m a bit of a nudity prude, which is odd for someone who receives sex toy samples at the office and has a bottle of bacon lube sitting next to her computer monitor — or maybe it makes perfect sense. I’m exceedingly comfortable with eroticized undress, but what about the desexualized naked body? I think it’s worthwhile to challenge our own individual brand of prudishness, whatever it may be."
<br />
<br />
I found it very interesting that they felt the need to explore non-sexual nudity. I could not agree more! Our current culture has some issues with simple, non-sexual nudity. People are totally afraid to be seen simply nude. People will tell us on the phone "I'll come to your resort once I loose 20 pounds." Our typical reply is that "it doesn't matter what weight you are!" We've also been known to say "... and a bathing suit hides it!"<br />
<br />
Our opinion and experience is that people of all sizes and shapes look better nude. Seriously. We've been so brainwashed by our culture that pokes fun at size with statements like "some people should NEVER be seen nude." How sad a "judgement" against another human being.<br />
<br />
If you poke around our website (www.LivingWatersSpa.com) you'll see pictures of naked people. I believe we did these very tastefully AND these are REAL people who are guests who consented to be photographed. They are NOT paid models.
Soooo, have you had a non-sexual naked experience? Perhaps 2013 is the year for you and that you'll choose Living Waters Spa as the place to try.
BTW, the article mentioned can be found at: http://www.salon.com/2012/12/30/my_sexual_resolutions/

Wonderful, wonderful, mineral water. A large spa pool with an awning over it. Massage that "puts you back together" instead of "tearing you apart." Free wifi that works and is FAST. Great Starbucks coffee in the morning. A "mini-bar" in our lounge with FREE soda, yogurt, and juice. Views of Mt. San Jacinto from bed! A totally different and accepting context for you to be just "you." These are some of the things that Living Waters Spa is all about.<br />

<br />
We held our breath as guests arrived. Would they like our spa? Would they appreciate the clothing-optional mineral water pools? Would they "get" our approach to massage? And finally, would they come back? As it turns out they did! We've had well over 7,000 guests from all over the US and even the world. By our 4th month we realized that each week we were having repeat guests and now average about a 73% repeat rate. We work hard to provide our guests with "more than a vacation."<br />
<br />
In our goal of being a restful "oasis" where people can relax and be restored - "blessed" if you will, we've been blessed by them. We've been called by TripAdvisor one of the top 10 Clothing-optional resorts in the world as well as named as one of the top 25 hotels in the US for relaxation! We are honored to be here, making a difference in the lives of people.

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Our facility is completely private and
"European style" clothing-optional. You are encouraged to soak in our healing
mineral waters au naturel and enjoy this total immersion in nature. For
generations Europeans have visited the "spas" and have sunbathed nude. We
Americans are now realizing how relaxing this "nude recreation" can be.
Swimsuit optional vacations are now becoming common for us and we are
discovering what our European friends have known all along -- such simple nudity
is total freedom. We've designed our place to give "first timers" the best
clothes free experience possible. At <b><span style="color: blue;">Living Waters

tan-lines! </span><div class="blogger-post-footer">Living Waters Spa is a 9 room and 6 condo clothing

<br />
Here at the Living Waters Clothing-optional Mineral Water Spa Resort we give you that opportunity to do so. You might not use any of those terms to describe yourself but you do know the feeling. We also add one more very cool thing to this experience, pure mineral water pools. Yep, water right up from mother earth that is laden with life giving minerals. We pump from our own private well from the depths of 200 feet directly into our two pools. This water is odor free (unlike some mineral waters) and silky smooth. One guest described it as "Liquid Cotton!" Just let that description sink in... liquid cotton.<br />

A number of years ago we found an article in Massage & Bodywork that kinda captured the idea of why:<br /><br />"Human touch is the most sophisticated physical tool in the known universe. We cannot synthesize a material that functions like the skin of the hands, let alone something that operates with the sensitivity, intelligence and motor complexity of the human neuromuscular system through the hands.<br /><br />Touch is also the only way to bring two energy systems into direct contact with one another. Michelangelo’s image of God’s and Adam’s hands approaching has the enduring power to remind us of the literal sharing of that spark of life.<br /><br />Every time we lay our hand on the human body with pressure and consciousness, we are uniting the worlds of structure and the worlds of energy in the only possible way for this to be done. Human touch is the only context in the known universe in which there is a simultaneous and conscious contact of both structure and energy." [Massage and Bodywork – January 2004]<br /><br /><div>We've had people laugh, cry, go into a state of semi-conscousness, release fears, embrace change, feel "reborn", get goosebumps, solve a problem, and enter into a state of bliss... on my table. It is truly an honor to touch another human being with the intent to bless, to heal, to restore, to love - unconditionally.</div><div class="blogger-post-footer">Living Waters Spa is a 9 room and 6 condo clothing

Sure, there are instructional DVDs that might work, but they can be kind of “porn-ish.” You’ve heard of Tantra and it sounds mysterious and sexy but you may not be into new-age spirituality. Terms and concepts such as chakras, meridians, and kundalini awakening can be rather baffling and unfamiliar.<br /><br /><br />So where does a couple go to expand their relationship, grow closer to each other, and celebrate sensuality in a safe monogamous context? The answer: Living Waters Spa! On July 29 & 30 such a workshop will be held at the desert’s only mineral water, clothing optional spa, Living Waters Spa.<br /><br /><br />This event is called “Hot Summer Nights – a Summer Valentine for Lovers.” It will be led by owners and massage therapists Jeff and Judy Bowman who have conducted this workshop several times each year since they opened their spa in 2003. “We wanted to create a workshop that we would want to attend, one that would allow us to explore our sensuality in a safe monogamous context and learn some new approaches to our sex life,” says Jeff. “As massage therapists we know the power of touch. As a couple we’ve been together for many years and have worked through many of the issues that block intimacy between a couple. So we’ve put together a weekend workshop that will teach various massage techniques which will give you new tools for the toolbox of intimacy & romance.” "We have designed this weekend to be a sacred experience that is full of sensuality and joy”, said Judy.<br /><br /><br />The weekend starts on Friday night where couples will learn to give each other a sensuous massage that is as pleasant for the giver as for the receiver. Various massage techniques and body positions will be taught to make it an enjoyable session. This aids the couple to grow in their ability to communicate with their partner via touch. No massage experience needed. Then on Saturday afternoon the “heat is on.” In “Woman’s Hour” the man will focus on his woman. For about 90 minutes Jeff and Judy share erotic bodywork and sensual touch focused on the woman. In the evening the “Man’s Hour” is held where the woman will focus on her man.<br /><br /><br />During all sessions Jeff and Judy describe and demonstrate on each other the intimate massage and erotic bodywork exercises while instructing the couples as they work on their own partners. “We don’t know of another workshop like this,” say Jeff and Judy, “where couples can learn specific massage exercises that they may have never tried before, where they can discuss aspects of sexuality that are often left unsaid or only in the pages of Cosmo!” “In prior workshops we’ve had couples of all ages, and as you know, sexuality is far different for a twenty-something couple compared to a sixty-something couple. But as people open up and share during the weekend many wonderful ideas are discovered by all. Some couples have expressed concern regarding the presence of other people in the same room. We can tell you that while there are other couples (limited to 8) you are so concentrated on your partner that the rest are blocked out.”<br /><br /><br />A note: access to Living Waters Spa is restricted during Hot Summer Nights to those participating in the workshop.<br /><br /><br />Living Waters Spa is a European-style clothing optional natural spring water spa resort that has been featured in the New York Times, Los Angeles Times, USA Today, EllenDegeneres.com, the Washington Post and the spa is currently top rated on TripAdvisor.com. It offers its guests a chance to get away, get in touch with life, and rejuvenate mind, body, and spirit. Hot mineral water has been sought out by health enthusiasts the world over and Europeans have gone to the hot baths since ancient days. The mineral water found at Living Waters is odorless, tasteless, and colorless.<br /><br /><br />The cost of “Hot Summer Nights” is $395.00 per couple plus room rates.

The best kept secret of summer... the Desert and Living Waters Spa.<br /><br />We are a unique spa of spas. We ARE a place to detox, rest and be restored.<br /><br />Listen to the words of real people who have just visited LWS:<br /><br /><strong>“Wish we could have stayed longer”<br /></strong>My wife and I spent two days at Living Waters Spa. I have had other clothing-optional experiences before and really enjoy being nude. But my wife has never felt comfortable enough to be nude when we went to other clothing-optional spas, etc....until Living Waters Spa. Once you step foot inside the door, you are mentally transported to a safe, carefree oasis where you feel free to be yourself. The first night we were there, we soaked in the hot spring spa. I was nude and my wife wore her bathing suit. We sat and quietly talked with two other women who were soaking nude with us. There is such a non-judgmental and open vibe about the place. That night, we slept with our room door open and let the cool breezes flow through. By the next morning, as we met others for breakfast, my wife felt comfortable enough to shed her suit and enjoy the Living Waters Spa au natural. That's what is so special about Living Waters. You meet other interesting people who share your openness and acceptance (or curiosity) about being nude. If you have been thinking about experiencing a nude experience with other people, Living Waters Spa is a great place to do it. If you've never experienced social nudity, you'll never forget that feeling of taking off your clothes in your room, sliding open the door and stepping out free and naked for the first time. You'll carry that feeling of sheer joy with you the rest of your life. <br /><br /><strong>“A Spa Experience in a Class of Its Own”<br /></strong>We are not big into reviews on the premise that those engaged in the hospitality industry are expected to deliver outstanding experiences. However, our recent stay at the Living Waters Spa spurred us to want to pass on our praises and gratitude. Our stay at the LWS was something special and beyond any preconceived notions of what to expect at a spa. The location, setting, and facilities are perfectly balanced and in such harmony with the gifts imparted by the healing mineral waters. That balance leads to a serenity that flows over all the guests resulting in an atmosphere devoid of interpersonal dynamics. You will interact, if your choose, with some interesting and great people. Finally, LWS massages elevate the practice and art of massage to a metaphysical near spiritual level. We left our stay with a changed ability to interact with our everyday lives and the ‘stress’ of trying to arrange the time for our return to LWS.<br /><br />Yep, real people, real experiences! We are NOT for those who want to over-drink, party, be loud, or generally to "tox," we are the place to detox.<br /><br />Come to the oasis!<div class="blogger-post-footer">Living Waters Spa is a 9 room and 6 condo clothing
