Exactly what I needed. A beautiful trip to reflect and reset. I loved the yoga, sound bath, the hike, and the FOOD! Kristen is an amazing chef. I enjoyed getting to know everyone and felt loved and supported, even though we started the weekend as complete strangers. Nicole and Kristen put together an amazing weekend. Thank you!

Amanda, so glad you had such a great time. Thank YOU for being a part of this group. You are amazing and it was so fun to get to spend this time together. Can't wait for next year :)

I had a wonderful time. The air b & b is challenging to get from any surrounding airport. It is a minimum-hour car ride from the closest airport. I loved having Kristen as our private chef. Her food was BEYOND excellent. The menu was mindful, and the snacks were so yummy. I also appreciated her following up with all reciepies. It was not necessary, but I enjoyed it. I much would have rathered to stay in on Saturday night and eat. Going out to eat was a buzz-kill night. I would have eaten the leftovers :). I enjoyed the yoga but would have loved to be set free at times. The sound bath and burn bowl were unique. I appreciated the little heavenly spots at the Air B & B. I loved the fire pit, community table, lounge area, pool, and cozy atmosphere. It took a lot of work to get to know everyone's names since there was not a formal introduction at the beginning. The hike was fun, but I wish I would have packed better shoes. I loved the lunch provided at the top of the mountain. Thank you for sharing your light and love.

The food was absolutely amazing and I love that we got a cookbook so we could come home and make more of the same deliciousness. I’ve been doing that since I’ve been back and it’s been awesome. I loved the two yoga practices a day and especially loved the hike . All around the perfectly curated, short but sweet retreat. Very grateful!
By Rebecca T for Nourished: Yoga + Delicious Food on Oct 25, 2023

It was an incredible experience. We were so taken care of by Nicole and Kristen with every thought given to the flow and schedule of the day, the food, and the socializing. The size of the group was great - a good way to get everyone together without being overwhelmed by the size. I loved the amount of time we were there (though always wish it could be longer!). And a beautiful location to stay at!
