The 'Sacred Pause' retreat delivered exactly what it promises in the name: four luxurious days to relax, reflect, and connect in a serene and beautiful locale. Besides the participants themselves, highlights of the retreat include the delicious, nourishing (and beautiful!) food, the natural beauty of the property itself; the beautiful facilities have clearly been designed with intentionality, they are spotlessly maintained, and they lend themselves to the activities being done in them. (i.e, dining, yoga and socializing). I would highly recommend this retreat experience to any woman in recovery, looking to disconnect from day-to-day life for a bit, and connect with other kindred spirits who share the same goal.

Taryn's retreats are always warm & soul nurturing. Stowell Lake farm is a beautiful large piece of land, with a staff that makes the stay comfortable, along with the most delicious food (much of which comes right off the land!). The retreat itself offers yoga, down time, reflections, intention setting, sharing circles, and community. It's an event I look forward to every summer, where I can practice self-care and connection.

I’m incredibly grateful that a last-minute opening allowed me to join this five-day, four-night Retreat. It was a beautiful, unforgettable and empowering experience, a deeply nourishing journey for body, mind, and spirit. Dawn and Taryn are truly exceptional leaders. Their wisdom, warmth, and authenticity created a safe and supportive space for all of us. Every woman deserves a retreat like this! ❤️
