Come join us July 5th and 6th for a powerful, two-day transformational gathering that will jumpstart your summer. Recognizing the challenges and difficulties educators are facing, we designed these 2 days to help them heal, teach new stress management concepts, and motivate
them to live a blissful life.
We will be engaging in several healing activities, learning deep soul shifting concepts, building healthy relationships with food, ourselves, and others.

All this in a fun, relaxed, and loving environment with a group of dynamic hosts and speakers, who just happen to be educators themselves.
