The Retreat
Presence. Practice. Connection.
Step away from the noise—and into the now.​
Into The Now is a 3-night retreat designed to help you reconnect with what’s real: your body, your breath, your presence. Set in a quiet corner of Vermont, surrounded by forest and open sky, this experience is meant to reset your nervous system and bring you back to the ground beneath your feet.​
Each morning begins with strong, intentional yoga to awaken the body and quiet the mind. We’ll sit in meditation, explore present-moment awareness through discussion and practice, and immerse ourselves in nature—with a guided hike and wild water dip that will leave you feeling fully alive.
​​
You'll also experience the power of cold exposure with an on-site cold plunge and sauna, along with a dedicated session on using the cold as a tool for clarity, resilience, and nervous system health. We’ll breathe together, move together, and explore how to integrate these practices into everyday life—where presence matters most.​
Throughout the retreat, Chef Kory will prepare fresh, nourishing meals to fuel you and support the work we’ll be doing.​
This is more than a weekend getaway—it’s a return to what’s real. A coming home to the now.
Come as you are. Leave more fully yourself.
