Volcano, CA — Spa Slumber Parties for Adults.

If you’ve been craving a night away that isn’t a bar, isn’t a restaurant, and doesn’t require planning a whole vacation… this is your new happy place.

Imagine this:
Matching robes.
Face masks and glowing skin.
Warm, cozy pajamas.
Laughing with your closest people.
A dreamy self-care lounge all to yourselves.
And absolutely no pressure to host, clean, or entertain.

Just show up. I take care of the rest.

🌙 SPA SLUMBER PARTIES
For groups of 3–5
✨ $99 per person
✨ Optional massage add-on: $125/hr — up to 3 hrs

This is a private, DIY-style spa night in my downstairs retreat apartment—beautiful, magical, and filled with self-care stations, herbal foot soaks, and all the goodies to help your nervous system finally exhale.

Perfect for:
• Girls’ night
• Birthdays
• Divorce glow-ups
• Sister weekends
• “We just need a night away” nights

If you’re in Amador County or the surrounding foothills, tag your people and start a group chat.
Let’s make a night of it. 💛

👉 Message me to reserve your date
👉 Or comment “INFO” and I’ll DM you the details

And if you know a group who would love this, please share this post—it helps small local businesses more than you know

Next Sanctuary December 5th, 6th, 7th Reserve Your Space Now Most women I work with aren’t suffering from a lack of strength. They’re exhausted from holding everything together. There’s the work, the caregiving, the emotional labor no one sees, the constant background hum of “What needs me next?” Eventually your body starts whispering––tight shoulders, aching hips, restless sleep, anxiety spikes out of nowhere....

The first weekend of every month is now officially Sanctuary Weekend at Essential Elevations… and you’re invited to make it part of your monthly ritual.

This isn’t a spa day.

It’s a two-hour reset crafted just for those who carry far too much and rarely—if ever—put themselves first.

Each Sanctuary Self Care Retreat includes:
✨ A full hour of therapeutic massage
✨ An hour in the Self Care Lounge with herbal foot soak
✨ Warm, quiet space to breathe, decompress, and come back into your body
✨ One-on-one, nurturing care with Brandy LaRae

Available the first full weekend of each month
Friday, Saturday, Sunday
11:30 AM or 3:00 PM

Saturday and Sunday • 6:00 PM
(6 PM includes optional upgrades like steam tent, shower ritual tray, extended massage time, or even an overnight stay.)

On the first Friday night we gather in community with a heart-opening Self-Care Social with Jenn from Concious Balance — the perfect community companion to your private retreat.

If your nervous system has been running hot…
If your shoulders have been screaming for months…
If you keep promising yourself “I’ll slow down soon,” but life never actually lets up…

Start here.
Give yourself one weekend a month to soften.
Sanctuary Weekend is your invitation to breathe again.

📍 Volcano, California
📅 First Weekend of Every Month
📲 Book your Sanctuary Self Care Retreat through Acuity or message me directly if you’re not sure which option is right for you.

Your body is asking for rest.
Let’s give it what it’s been craving.

There comes a moment, somewhere between all the tending and the doing, when your body whispers what your mind refuses to hear—you need rest, too. The Tranquility Reset was born for that moment. It’s a soft landing place for mothers, grandmothers, and caregivers, the steady hearts who hold so much for everyone else. It’s a retreat designed not for escape, but for remembering yourself....
