“After working really hard (and nearly nonstop) for 2 years – I found myself in serious need of a getaway where I could relax, rejuvenate, turn off any form of electronics – I needed a serious break from my computer, the internet and social media – of which I had no idea I’d have such a close relationship with when I started my business… Can you say #digitaldetox??
I’m adventurous, outdoorsy and a free spirit at heart. Luckily, a quick search turned up EXACTLY what I was looking for (and didn’t even know it). Lo and behold there was one spot waiting just for me at Sagrada Wellness’ Yoga, Hiking, Wine and Chocolate Retreat in San Luis Obispo, CA – I mean, could a gal like me ask for anything better?? I just don’t think so! But that wasn’t all, we also enjoyed some meditation classes and I tried my first sessions of qi gong and transformative acupuncture too.
In order to get the most out of my retreat once I arrived (since the human mind takes about 3 days to really relax and take a vacation), I decided to begin my trip a few days earlier and explored San Luis Obispo and Pismo Beach areas to begin unwinding and sloooowing down…
I’m thankful I had the opportunity to enjoy this retreat and I definitely plan to visit again as soon as possible! I felt so well nourished by all of the delicious, fresh (and mostly vegan) cuisine we enjoyed throughout our entire stay, and adored every last loving detail and all of the wonderful cozy design elements combining rustic woods and metals – one of my personal favorite styles!My experience was peaceful, positive, intimate and restorative. I was able to rest my mind, reconnect with myself and learn a thing or two about who I am becoming. I also took a step back to appreciate how far my business has come as well as gain clarity on the direction it’s going.
It’s so important to simplify and have those friendly reminders that baby steps are good things and better than BIG leaps sometimes (which is how I tend to travel through life)…
Thank you for a wonderful experience Sagrada!” – Recovering Overachiever (a.k.a. Angie Capri)
