Our guests love this quiet meditative place.
With a 600-year-old natural spring source on-site, the mineral waters that flow from this relaxing retreat are low in sulfur (meaning odor-free) and rich in lithium, creating a perfect cocktail for maximum cleansing and rejuvenation. Recharging every 24 hours, these bubbling waters are even said to be a natural mood elevator. Set on 72 acres and framed by a backdrop of peaceful palms, the sprawling spa offers a menu of traditional treatments like mud baths and specialty massages, as well as a variety of spiritual services and private readings performed by intuitive healing practitioners.

FOR THOSE SEEKING TO UNDERSTAND the “physics” of their minds, or perhaps just to attain a higher sense of consciousness, the Institute of Mentalphysics may be just the thing they were looking for. Built by Frank Lloyd Wright and his son Lloyd Wright in 1946, the Institute of Mentalphysics sits in the high desert of Joshua Tree, California. Based on Enlightenment philosophy, the science of Mentalphysics purports to offer “a portal to your inner being.”
Mentalphysics was pioneered by Ding Le Mei in 1927. Born as Edward John Dingle, Ding Le Mei was a British journalist who spent 21 years living and studying in Asia, primarily Tibet. During that time, he was one of the first Westerners to study under a Tibetan Lama Master, and he used his experience to fuse the similarities between Eastern and Western religious philosophies into his own new creation.

"Among the eclectic collection you’ll find just about every conceivable type of item, represented in crochet form. There are animals like poodles, bears, and unicorns. There are also more abstract designs, like smiley faces and lumpy little creations that are less identifiable.
The upbeat collection celebrates the eclectic tastes of its owner as much as it does the art of crochet. With few other contenders to for the title, this little roadside oddity may just be as famous as its sign claims."
The museum is free and open 24/7. It's located toward the back of a vacant lot, near the Joshua Tree Saloon. From the entrance gate, keep heading to the back of the lot. There is free parking as well.

I do not wish to be an artist, I only wish that art enables me to be.
– Noah Purifoy, 1963
Born in Snow Hill, Alabama in 1917, Noah Purifoy lived and worked most of his life in Los Angeles and Joshua Tree, California, where he died in 2004. He received an undergraduate degree from Alabama State Teachers College in 1943 and a graduate degree from Atlanta University in 1948. In 1956, just shy of his 40th birthday, Purifoy earned a BFA degree from Chouinard, now CalArts.
His earliest body of sculpture, constructed out of charred debris from the 1965 Watts rebellion, was the basis for 66 Signs of Neon, the landmark 1966 group exhibition on the Watts riots that traveled throughout the country. As a founding director of the Watts Towers Art Center, Purifoy knew the community intimately. His 66 Signs of Neon, in line with the postwar period’s fascination with the street and its objects, constituted a Duchampian approach to the fire-molded alleys of Watts. This strategy profoundly impacted artists such as David Hammons, John Outterbridge and Senga Nengudi. For the 20 years that followed the rebellion, Purifoy dedicated himself to the found object, and to using art as a tool for social change.
In the late 1980s, after 11 years of public policy work for the California Arts Council, where Purifoy initiated programs such as Artists in Social Institutions, which brought art into the state prison system, Purifoy moved his practice out to the Mojave desert. He lived for the last 15 years of his life creating ten acres full of large-scale sculpture on the desert floor. Constructed entirely from junked materials, this otherworldly environment is one of California’s great art historical wonders.
