Reclaiming Your Self Reboot Week (1 - 6 days)

Sunday, October 4 – Friday, October 9, 2015

Detox Your Lifestyle and Develop Healthy Patterns!

Come for the length of retreat that fits your schedule: 1 to 6 days!

This is NOT a juice fast or yoga retreat.

This is a week to get on track with healthier habits for your body, mind and spirit.

If you’ve wondered how to:

  • start a healthier way of eating,
  • slowly lose weight without gaining it back,
  • feel emotionally balanced and energized
  • deepen your sense of spirit
  • become more mindful
  • cope with stresses of life
  • start some gentle exercise

Then this is the retreat for you!

We think of detox as a process of getting clear with what serves you.  There will be no suffering through fasting or eating anything that doesn’t taste awesome. This is a FEEL GREAT week! We make healthy and delicious food, that your friends will want the recipes for!

Right thinking, right eating, right exercise. So simple? It can be.

FlowerThis week has a focus on all aspects of your self-awareness – what you eat, how you eat, how you feed your mind, and how you feel in your body. You will eat well and nourish your body with yummy organic vegan meals.

Come into physical balance with daily Yoga classes that will flex your muscles as well as your mind and spirit. Create your resilient emotional balance with mindfulness practices aimed at permanent stress reduction.  You will learn the tools to better cope with the stresses of daily life. Explore yourself via yoga, meditation, healthy food and group discussions. Meet new friends and become your own best friend!

 My stay at Sugar Ridge was one of the defining experiences of my life. From my journal:
“I don’t know how to meditate,” I say. “Yes, you do,” Liz says, as if she’s surprised. “It’s the moment when you look at a sunset, and before judging that it’s a sunset, you simply understand that it’s beautiful.”
