Autumn is the time of year we honor a long summer of hard work as we soak in the harvest of our efforts. It reminds us of the innately abundant nature of the human experience. It is a season to gather not just crops but also gratitude - to recognize the many aspects of our lives that are full and good as a result of our dedicated and intentional efforts. Just as we harvest the life-sustaining products of the Earth, may we also acknowledge the overflowing abundance that dwells within us and all around us.
This retreat is for those who seek a deeper connection with nature, a renewed sense of self, and a path to holistic living. Whether you're a seasoned yogi, an herbalism enthusiast, or simply someone yearning for a transformative escape, the retreat welcomes all who wish to harvest the abundance of the autumn season and nourish their mind, body, and soul.

My name is Bonnie G. Wallace, your chef for this incredible retreat. As an Ayurvedic Medicine Counselor, Functional Medicine Consultant, Holistic Chef and Tantric Yoga Teacher, I methodically weave together Eastern and Western therapies for truly holistic root-cause healthcare solutions that are appropriate for the esoteric, and the evidenced-based seeker. The programs I’ve developed in the last 16 years of study and practice were born out of a desire to bridge the gap between the physical, mental and spiritual models of health and provide comprehensive solutions that treat the body, mind and spirit as one. Treating the body, mind and spirit in silos is a thing of the past! Imagine - customized nutrition is finally easy and delicious, your energy is vibrant, your mind and digestive system are calm and resilient, and your actions align with your heart's desires to shape a life full of personal power, freedom and joy. I can't wait for you to experience this reality!
