Retreats

Looking for a unique way to kickstart a healthy lifestyle change for your colleagues or a like-minded group of friends? I can set up a day and a half outing at a B&B with morning stretch, invigorating hike on a scenic trail, a workshop on exploring why change (even a healthy one) is difficult to maintain and how we can have hidden goals that keep us from making those changes. Yoga and massage can be add-ons as part of the program. Suggested areas are St Genevieve with hiking in Hawn State Park or Wildwood with hiking in Castlewood State Park. The agenda and activities will be customized to fit the needs of the group. Cost of the event will be calculated and proposed based on number of participants, lodging rates and add-ons selected.
