Let’s update our perception of self-care from something we “need to do” to something we want to do. Nourish: A Desert Retreat, is a gathering in the magical desert of Joshua Tree, CA, where we’ll commune for 5 days of self care and reflection. We’ll tend to our bodies, minds and emotions through yoga, Aryuvedic medicine, meditation, breathwork, hiking, sound healing, journaling, self massage, plant-based meals, and more. This 4 night getaway is a safe space for people of all physical levels; for individuals to focus on what works for their own body and to find a way to incorporate that into a routine that could translate into real change.

If you find yourself placing everyone else’s needs above your own and/or feel drained with never enough time for yourself, come… pause, breathe, relax, and remember how to honor and take care of yourself with guides Debby Siegel (St. Louis), JQ Williams (St. Paul), and Zoe Wirth (L.A.). This retreat includes 3 plant-based meals per day, coffee, snacks, Aryuvedic oils and tools for our self care rituals, supplies for creating mandalas and journals.

Self-care isn’t selfish. It’s a revolutionary act. A road back to yourself. And it changes everything. You already know this is true. But sometimes, we need a reminder. A skilled guide back to our own inner wisdom. A sacred pause from life’s endless To Do’s … so we can return to our deepest, truest vitality.
