Our waterfront Retreat is located directly on the crystal clear turquoise waters of the historic Ichetucknee River surrounded by cypress trees
at a private, peaceful, and serene home. The natural spring water is 72 degrees providing a year-round magical experience for snorkeling, swimming, or paddling -- As well as providing a warm home to Manatees during this time of year. There are several unique springs we will visit during our stay. Our thoughtful Vegetarian & Vegan meals will be created on site with a private Holistic Chef. Our Yoga classes and workshops will be centered around your individual self care needs as we dive into our deepest desires - Love, Trust, Safety, Strength, and Support. Pack your Yoga adventure bag ready for classes & workshops, nature, swimming, quiet time to yourself, telling stories around a campfire, connecting with amazing people, visiting historic & sacred places, nourishing ourselves with incredible food, and giving yourself transformative time for YOU. Supported by the serene lush setting of the heart of Florida you will find it only natural to let yourself bathe in healing for your own heart.

Cara Edwards, Retreat Leader & Yoga Teacher
Hi! My name is Cara Edwards and I'm beyond excited to be sharing this dream of a retreat with you. I'm taking us to my homeland where I was privileged to grow up steeped in breathtaking nature, spirituality, and a strong healing community. I'm pulling together my favorite people, favorite places, and ALL of the Self Care tools I have for this retreat. I'll be guiding us through daily Meditation, Yoga, Paddleboard Yoga, medicine making, day outing adventures, and basically be there for any support needed along the way. I absolutely cannot wait to tell stories around a campfire, share my top vegan recipes with you in the kitchen, take to you to the sacred places that sparked my spiritual journey, and create connections to last a lifetime. It is my intention to meet your individual needs with a compassionate heart, teach you invaluable self care practices to take home, and do everything I can to make this retreat a dream come true for you, too.

Sofia Lo Coco, Holistic Chef
Hi! I'm Sofia Lo Coco. As a Holistic Chef it is my life's passion to harness the healing power of food. I'm passionate about teaching others to cook in a way that keeps the whole body in mind. I believe through choosing fresh, seasonal, and nutrient dense ingredients, we can create meals that fuel us through the day and keep us healthy throughout our lifetime. During this retreat, I will teach you what ingredients to choose and how they will benefit your mind and body. I'm also looking forward to leading several cooking classes giving you plenty of recipes to take home. With my training in cooking natural foods combined with my training in nutrition I can't wait to help you create a diet tailored to your needs, so you can truly feel your best - body, mind, and heart.
