A Holistic Approach to Women’s Wellness in Colorado
Located in Colorado’s Rocky Mountains, 4Winds Farm offers a holistic approach to mental health and wellbeing. We address the constraints of traditional treatments through integrating the body, mind and spirit. We are uniquely focused on dissolving diagnostic categories. Our residents are not divided by their diagnosis, and they participate in classes and workshops with our greater community, helping to break down the silence and stigma that can be so isolating.
We offer custom designed wellness and recovery programs for individuals following a psychosocial and interpersonal assessment. Through our deep understanding and work with traumatic memory we address unresolved trauma, PTS and co-occurring disorders.
Trauma may result from a wide variety of stressors such as accidents, invasive medical procedures, sexual or physical assault, emotional abuse, neglect, war, natural disasters, loss, birth trauma, generational, cultural trauma and the corrosive stressors of ongoing fear and conflict.
Our wellness community is located on 134 acres of pristine farmland between Sunlight Mountain and Glenwood Hot Springs, our 30- 60-and 90-day women’s mental health and trauma recovery programs consist of daily educational and integrative therapeutic sessions, outdoor and equine therapy, private lodging, and organically sourced meals with a focus on well-being. We also offer a 1 to 3 week wellness immersion program.
We provide a safe supportive space where women can reset their mental health, address unresolved trauma and heal.
Residential trauma Resolution programs, immersion Therapy Retreats and Workshops
4Winds Farm also features wellness retreats and healing workshops on its Colorado campus to all people trying to alter their personal trajectories or heal from depression, anxiety or trauma.
We believe when you break down the diagnostic silos that tell people they are this-or-that type of person—we connect with each other as humans and dramatically alter our personal trajectories.
We create this outcome through experiential, educational and therapeutic programs that give people an alternative to the clinical and medical interventions that have failed them.
In addition to our internal programs, we partner with like-minded organizations and integrative practitioners to hold wellness retreats and healing workshops at 4Winds Farm.

As Nature Made Us: Linear Thinking, Circular Being
One of the most important concepts that informs all wellness and healing practices at 4Winds Farm is “linear thinking, circular being.” Both are powerful, innate capabilities we share as humans, but today’s modern culture tends to prefer the linear—often to the detriment of human vitality and social capability.
When we talk about linear thinking, we’re referring to straight-line goal orientation. To many of us, this feels satisfyingly practical and targeted. But when you’re focused on the straight, confined highway in front of you, you compromise your peripheral view—which is to say that you miss most of what’s going on.
Moreover, circular being makes us aware of our true nature as thinking beings, and it allows us to learn from the environments we occupy. The seasons always come around again. Our measurements of years and months are in fact measurements of cycles, not lines.
True connection to ourselves and to the earth requires inviting our environment in rather than pushing it away—observing and connecting with the natural cycles rather than artificially creating a track for humanity to go down.
The JUNEBUG Project
Help us make an impact—The JuneBug Project is led by the participants in our women’s residential recovery program. It serves as a way to bring our community together and provides a safe place to begin your path to healing. The last Saturday of every month is a day to gather, share and learn. Take a breath class, help with farm chores, and plant, cultivate and harvest from the gardens. Together we’ll prepare and share a meal and great conversation. Limited to fifteen guests. Contact 970.390.4227 to sign up. #junebugproject
