Back to Balance: Blue Ridge Retreat
September 6-8
Location: Heartwood Retreat Center
This three-day, two-night retreat is an all-inclusive weekend that will give you the opportunity to reset as we shift and enter into the fall months. Your three facilitators (Holly, Kristin, and Melissa) will provide several opportunities throughout the weekend to connect to nature and yourself.
The Heartwood Retreat Center is located about two hours North of Atlanta in a secluded cabin resort community, eight miles from downtown Blue Ridge. The property boasts 80+ acres, a swimmable spring-fed lake, sauna with red-light therapy, hot tub, and two indoor studios as well as an outdoor studio. During this retreat, we will have exclusive rights to the property, allowing the freedom to utilize the indoor and outdoor spaces as weather allows.
