About the event
Join us for a soul-nourishing afternoon designed to help you reclaim what has always been yours: the sacred, loving relationship with your own body.
Your body is for you. Not to be judged, fixed, or shaped to meet external expectations. This retreat is about reclaiming that truth, anchoring it in your cells, and beginning - or continuing - the journey of loving yourself from the inside out.
If you’ve spent years feeling disconnected from your body - caught in cycles of comparison, self-judgment, or striving to meet impossible standards - you are not alone. The messages we’ve absorbed run deep, telling us how our bodies should look, feel, and function.
But it’s time to remember:
Your body is not a project.
It’s not a problem to solve.
It’s not public property—and it’s no one else’s business.
This in-person retreat brings together three skilled practitioners to guide you through an integrated, somatic healing experience to reclaim your birthright to love and cherish your body:
💗 Authenticity coach Suzanne Carver—a woman who lived for decades in a place of body rejection and now guides others into deep, embodied self-love—will facilitate a transformational Body Love Workshop. Through guided journaling, visualization, and a powerful reimagining of how we see, experience, and relate to our bodies, you’ll explore what it means to reclaim your body as your own and reconnect with the innate love, wisdom, and worth that has always lived within you.
🌿 Yoga teacher Kris Eschman will guide you through gentle, grounding somatic practices - not yoga - to access your body through your body, not your mind. This is an invitation to drop beneath the stories and expectations, and reacquaint yourself with the actual felt experience of your physical form - its wisdom, its wonder, and its quiet perfection.
🎶 A Sound healing practitioner will close our time together with a deeply immersive, hour-long sound bath. This powerful vibrational experience will help your nervous system integrate the day’s work, inviting emotional release, energetic balance, and deep inner rest.
We’ll also share a light, nourishing, vegetarian meal together and hold space for presence, reflection, and connection.
This in-person retreat is for any woman who is ready to stop apologizing for her body, to release inherited shame, and to reclaim her birthright to live joyfully in her own skin. It is a space to shed what was never yours to carry—and to come home to the truth that has always lived inside you:
Your body is yours and only yours. Own it—fully, fiercely, freely.
