Imagine this adventure yoga retreat…

You’re in the middle of hiking 5 miles on lush green trails. You’ve already practiced yoga along the river, ate snacks at a waterfall and you’re about to stop at a sunny swim spot for lunch. After lunch, it’s a short walk back to the cars or you can choose a detour for a guided meditation next to a second waterfall.

Sound like the perfect way to enjoy the day?

I’m working with local companies to create this experience up and down the Youghiogheny River in summer 2021. But first, I need some feedback. Are you a 9-5’er who would love to see this day retreat on a Saturday or Sunday? Or do you have an inconsistent schedule and prefer something during the week? Lemme know 😘

Imagine this adventure yoga retreat..

You're sitting next to a river and you can hear the water flowing as you move through a yoga class suited for all levels. You just paddled class 2 whitewater to this spot, with the help of an experienced guide, and as you stretch your body, a healthy and delicious lunch is being prepared for you.

Sound perfect?

I’m partnering with to share this incredible experience with you Sunday, May 23rd 2021. Head over to their event page for more information.

This group is transformational.

In April of 2017 I met these wonderful humans (plus a few others, y’all are gems!) at a yoga teacher training in Costa Rica (shout out ). That training was probably the most emotionally uncomfortable period of time in my life.

No one explained to me that to guide yoga, teach self love and encourage balance in others, I must first understand my emotions wholly. (I honestly thought it was just shouting out different yoga poses 🤷🏻‍♀️) The exercises, forgiveness meditations and discussions, combined with sweating 24/7 in the Costa Rican heat, shifted me in a way that I wasn’t aware of until years later.

Flash forward through a pandemic, a career shift and a whole lot of introspection, we meet again in The Great Smoky Mountains. This week was everything that I needed. You all bring such a unique and vibrant light to the party and I am grateful for all of it. Cannot wait to see you again 💕

“You don’t have to wake up at 2:45am to hike up 3,000’ in the dark. But if you’re gonna do it, you have to show up.” Despite these words being directed at a teenager, they totally resonated with me.

You don’t have to do the hard work, you don’t have to summit the mountain to watch the sunrise, you can stay in bed and that would be totally fine. But if you’re going to go through the trouble of waking up in the middle of the night, don’t bitch about how you could be in bed. Show up and be present.

These words got me up the mountain today. Even when I was silently mother f*cking myself for getting out of bed (I mean, can you actually dawn patrol without questioning your decision?! I think not)

There wasn’t anyone serving hot chocolate at the summit, but I suppose that kept the masses at bay.

Almost 3,000’ in elevation gain with a rad crew 😍

Today was 100% what I needed

A power yoga class with an incredible view & a lazy walk through the woods.

I want to do this every day! I mean, I am doing this every day, but I want to share this bliss every day!

Today’s joy sparked the idea of an adventure retreat centered around reconnecting to nature and resetting your body through yoga and massage.

How fun would that be?! Who wants to join me?

I absolutely love working with photographers who are willing to do anything!... like get up at 5am and shoot in almost freezing conditions. Today was super fun 💕

If you were waiting for a sign to show yourself love, this is it.

You may not work tomorrow. Take advantage of it. Enjoy a cup of tea, soak in a warm bath, listen to a guided meditation and, if you’re local, spend an hour on my heated massage table. Enhance your time with aromatherapy oil and warm stones at no cost.

I’m located in the midsts of the most vibrant trees right now and the drive will only add to your peaceful day.
