Back to Vitality: A 5-night Wellness Kickstart
Sunday, March 26 – Friday, March 31, 2023
Have you been feeling out of sorts?
Lost your way on the wellness path?
Seeking direction, motivation, information and support as you (re)embark on your journey of health?
You are not alone.
Join us for a 5-night kickstart designed to guide you towards the very best version of you!
The last few years have thrown us off kilter. For many of us, our healthy habits and rituals have been altered or lost completely. Both globally and as individuals, we have been left feeling disconnected, out of balance, and out of touch with our vital selves in the realms of nutrition, movement, mindset and lifestyle.
One of the best parts of being human however, is that every single day we are gifted with another opportunity to begin again; to move forward and in the direction of our most vibrant, healthful and dynamic selves…one moment at a time! It is never too late to begin again!
This week is a perfect blend of education, ritual, accountability, self-reflection, movement and community support. You will be surrounded by like-minded individuals who are also seeking their best self. This is not a “one-size-fits-all” approach, however. It is simply a safe space where all participants can explore unique ways of healthy living that aligns with their own needs, abilities and lifestyles.
Join us for the pure healing magic that is Sugar Ridge!
