Day of Joy

Imagine yourself surrounded by a soul centered community of women, showering you with love and helping you ignite your senses. Join us for a Day of Joy where we celebrate you!

Meet your hosts!

SARAH MANUEL:

How often do you eat? Likely, it’s every day, but how often do you really sink into the experience of nourishing yourself?  I invite you to take a pause with me.  We’ll take a moment to appreciate the diversity of sensations we can experience through food and then we’ll indulge together.  During our day of joy, I will lead you through two foodie experiences where we will lean into the power of food and how it can heal our minds and bodies.

First we will explore tea.  I’ll guide you through the process of creating your own unique blend of tea that speaks to you.  Later on, we will experience the power of spices and herbs by making hand ground dukkah. Using this dukkah, we will gather together for a beautiful, colorful, fragrant and textural foodie experience.

TAMARA GIBSON:

Plain and simply, there is nothing more beautiful than women spoiling women I will be leading women through a hot Stone hand and arm massage. Allowing each person to be cared for by another. We will be using a blend of essential oils specifically chosen for this retreat to bring ancient teachings to our modern day healing. Nourishing the skin, revitalization of the cells and most of all, bringing your body into a space of tranquility. This added with hot  stones will get your system shifting over into a parasympathetic state, the heat will open up the tissues, allow muscles to relax and oils to absorb. Connection between women is incredibly important and I am so thrilled to experience this Day of Joy with you!

RYANN MCLAIN:

Sometimes we seek answers and peace outside ourselves, but I believe all that we are looking for can be accessed when we drop deeply into our bodies.  So to begin our day together, I will assist you in connecting to your inner voice through breathwork and meditation. You will learn how to release anything you’re ready to let go of, and fill up with vibrant energy, embodying  your highest self. I hope to leave you with practices you can take home with you to utilize to stay grounded and at home in your body.

To end our evening together, I will lead you through a giving and receiving ceremony. As women, we tend to over give and feel uncomfortable receiving from others. This exercise will help you practice balancing that energy out while you connect even more with the women you are surrounded by. Then, we will dance. Dance helps you fully embody all that we cover during the day, helping you celebrate your joyful life!
