Meals and Free Time
Meals: The Art of Eating Well
​Meals specially curated by Ashlee Millin (Toad in the Hole)
and Courtnee Pinski (Roots)
Finnish Cedar Sauna
Experience the health benefits of a wood-fired sauna any time you wish throughout your retreat.
To sauna is more than sitting in heat — it’s a shared experience, ritual and culture. Sauna heat increases circulation, promotes a deep cleansing sweat, supports respiratory health, and helps release muscle tension and joint stiffness.​
Inside the quiet warmth, your thoughts slow. Focusing on breath becomes effortless, and the flicker of the fire creates a sense of presence and calm.​​
