Our Holistic Retreat
At Optimum Health Institute (OHI), we offer a wide range of classes aimed at supporting whole-person wellness and personal transformation. Each part of our program is thoughtfully created to cover physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. Our peaceful Los Angeles location provides the perfect space for healing and self-discovery.
Physical Health
Our detox classes are a key part of our program, designed to help cleanse the body, mind, and spirit. This retreat combines nutrition, movement, and emotional balance for a complete detox experience.
The program features a plant-based diet rich in organic, raw, and living foods, fresh juices, and herbal teas. These carefully selected items help support the body’s natural cleansing systems and encourage cellular renewal.
Guests also take part in light physical activities like yoga and walking, along with guided meditation and breathwork. These elements enhance the detox process by improving circulation, supporting lymphatic drainage, and reducing stress.
Workshops and seminars round out the experience, providing insight into fasting, hydration, and sustainable wellness practices. Led by skilled professionals, these sessions offer practical guidance and personalized education.
Mental Health
Our mental wellness classes are designed to support emotional health using an integrative and compassionate approach. These sessions benefit those dealing with stress, anxiety, or other mental health challenges.
Guests participate in one-on-one counseling, group discussions, and mindfulness practices. A focus on connection and community helps foster trust and healing throughout the experience.
Nutrition also plays a vital role, with meals planned to nourish the brain and balance mood. Educational classes teach the link between food and mental health, providing actionable tips for long-term benefits.
Topics like stress relief, coping skills, and emotional regulation are covered in depth, giving participants tools they can use well beyond their time at the retreat. Licensed professionals lead each session with care and expertise.
Spiritual Health
True healing comes from aligning body, mind, and spirit. Our spiritual classes focus on practices like prayer, meditation, and gratitude to restore inner peace.

What Guests Are Saying
From the staff, excellent program, and the wonderful grounds, OHI is where I go to reset and heal. The friends you make last a long time. This was my first time to the Austin campus. I had been to San Diego twice before. I think Austin is now my favorite. You can’t beat the walking paths. I really can’t say enough. THANK YOU Austin OHI. I had a lovely experience. ❤️❤️

"I believe career starts with ‘care’ and feel blessed to bring my profession and passions full circle here at OHI. As a former guest, I saw OHI as a healing refuge - and now get to return the favor.
