Nourish Your Soul ~ At Home Retreat

Leave a comment

A story from the Soul…

Lately I’ve been thinking about connection. The kind of deep, intimate connection that involves sharing, spending time with someone and truly SEEING them for who they are. Of course, it’s been hard to experience this type of connection virtually, but it posed a question that I’ve been contemplating for a while. I wonder, is it possible to experience a true transference of energy through an online platform? I decided that there’s no way better then to find out, so I challenged myself to create a mini “At Home Virtual Retreat” called “NOURISH THE SOUL.” As a Soul-based Wellness business I’m super passionate about curating journeys that are unique, memorable and of course SOULFUL. So for all of you in need of some self care, some inspiration and most importantly connection, I encourage you to join my first online Soul Journey Retreat March 1-7, 2021!
✨✨
Below you will find my online Retreat offering or click this link to my two “SOUL FLOW” retreats that I am offering in person in a private paradise. 

Ready to Dive in?

Experience a 7 day At Home Retreat to Nourish Your SOUL! This online mini “retreat” can be done from the comfort of your own home when you find the time. It’s designed to be impactful and affordable as many of us cannot currently travel and escape.

This retreat will focus on Self Care, and nourishing Soul Work. Through yoga flows, embodiment exercises and other modalities to strengthen your immune system and heart, I’ve created a powerful week especially for YOU.

Expect a daily routine that will help you settle your nerves and take back the reigns to become the master of your world. YOU are being invited into a new paradigm and I cannot wait to guide you.🤍

As we approach our last days of 2020 (phew!) I’m sure we are all feeling a strong desire to clear any remaining negative energy and ring in the New Year! For me, in order to clear obstacles and make space for the positive, I always start with moving my body. Once my body feels aligned, I can find stillness and quiet the mind. In case you’re looking for a reason to roll out your mat, here is a quick yoga flow for you.🤍

Making Tea a Ritual ~ 5 Minutes to Mindfulness

As simple as this may sound, and as cheesy as this video may be, there really are a ton of benefits in turning the act of drinking a cup of tea, into a mindful ritual.

Of course I shot this video BEFORE the days of quarantined life, and now drinking tea is something I do with my kids running around me squealing lol! However, it doesn’t take away the enjoyment of such a simple act.

Lastly, remember you can do anything for 5 minutes so why not to do something positive for your well being. 💕

Stay mindful my friends.🙏🏻

Why Floating is Therapeutic!

I don’t know about you, but this is the time of year that I start craving some Vitamin Sea!

Did you know that floating in nature, or feeling weightless in a hammock, or even utilizing a “flotation tank”, also known as a “sensory deprivation chamber” has many benefits! It is most often used as a method for relaxation and to boost creativity. It can allow one to engage in a deep meditative state, regardless of meditation experience.

Watch this video to feel some summer vibes and a taste of serenity.

Lastly, remember you can do anything for 5 minutes so why not to do something positive for your well being. 💕

Stay mindful my friends.🙏🏻

The Importance of Walking in Nature!

I get it, it’s hard to get outdoors when you would rather stay cozied up inside where it’s warm, but did you know that walking in nature can decrease depression, improve your wellbeing and mental health, and lower perceived stress???

Sometimes all we have is 5 minutes!! So this is just a friendly reminder to try and spend those 5 minutes doing something POSITIVE for yourself!!

Imagine how you would feel if you implemented walking in nature for 5 minutes a day, 7 days a week!!!😊

For more Benefits of Walking in Nature, watch this Video!

Why YOU Should Create a VISION BOARD

Happy New Year everyone! Since we have entered into a new decade, I have been fired up to set intentions, put goals into action and manifest my wildest dreams. I kicked the new year off by creating a Vision Board for my “2020 Vision” and hung it up by my bathroom sink so I would see it every day!

Did you know that a vision board is a concrete representation of your desires and aspirations for a compelling life? They are also fun to create and can serve as an invaluable tool to motivate and inspire you towards concrete daily action in pursuit of your biggest and most important life goals!

A vision board is a sacred place that displays what you want in life. When you hang it in a space where you see it daily, your vision board brings your goals and aspirations to life…

So check out my latest episode on 5 MINUTES TO MINDFULNESS and take 5 minutes to create a vision board that will give you a clear picture of where you want to get to!
