About this trip

Breathe & Breeze: The Blue Ridge
An inner child women's wellness retreat in the mountains of Fairview, North Carolina

July 22–25, 2027

Remember when summer meant running outside barefoot, making something just because it looked fun, and staying out until the fireflies came out? This one is for her.

Tucked into the trees above Fairview, just outside Black Mountain and Asheville, this mountain home comes with layer after layer of blue ridgeline, a fire pit under string lights, and more ways to play than you've had in years. Tree house. Slides. Frisbee golf. Cornhole on the lawn. We couldn't give it the usual weekend. So we're keeping everything you love about Breathe & Breeze and adding a whole lot of play.

Breathe & Breeze: The Blue Ridge is a small-group, alcohol-free women's retreat that blends yoga and mindfulness with inner child healing and good old-fashioned fun. Four days, three nights, no full week of PTO required. You'll move, rest, create, laugh until your cheeks hurt, and head home feeling lighter than you have in a long time.

We began hosting these weekend women's retreats in the fall of 2025 after years of teaching at retreats and seeing how powerful it can be to create intentional space for women to reset — even when time, PTO, or resources are limited. These shorter retreats offer meaningful stress reduction, connection, and clarity without requiring a full week away from real life.

The weekend
Mornings start slow with yoga, somatic movement, and cool mountain air. Our core practices anchor the days: sound healing, ecstatic dance, a women's circle, meditation, and a hike through the Blue Ridge Mountains.

In between, the house is your playground. Climb up to the tree house, race down the slides, start a frisbee golf rivalry, or settle into a cornhole tournament with a view. Or skip all of it and nap on the deck. Rest counts as play too.

Inner Child Art Workshop
One afternoon is all about creating with zero pressure to be "good at art." Pick what calls to you: painting on canvas, embroidery, macrame, and other easy, playful projects. No experience needed, no perfection allowed. You'll take home something made by the version of you who never stopped believing she was creative.
