The Crossings, an environmentally friendly wellness center and spa in the beautiful Texas Hill Country, has formed a partnership with Omega Institute, a holistic health education provider. The result is a place where guests can enjoy pampering along with workshops, lectures, and seminars led by experts in such areas as personal growth, mind and body healing, spirituality, creative expression, and professional development. Between classes, guests can arrange for spa treatments or take advantage of the gorgeous surroundings in the area, located 25 minutes west of Austin near Lake Travis within the Balcones Canyonlands Preserve. Of the 210 acres owned by The Crossings, only 35 are developed, leaving the rest of the sweeping hills, natural rock formations, and acres of cedar and live oak trees untouched.
