Creating A Life, You Don’t Need to Escape From

Need a retreat from your life... or do you want to make life feel like a wellness retreat?

(A reflection on retreats and vacations to feel better)

Feeling your best and loving your life doesn’t have to be temporary or fleeting, like a vacation or wellness retreat. True wellness is a preventative health practice that helps you thrive in your everyday life.

In our society, I’ve noticed that wellness often becomes an afterthought — something we rely on others to give us, or something we turn to when life gets hard, or illness sets in. It's frequently seen as a luxury, a temporary escape, or even unattainable, instead of the fundamental human right that it is.

Do you ever feel like you need a vacation after your vacation? Me too. While we imagine vacations as relaxing, fun, and enriching, they often lead to tossing "healthy" routines out the window in favor of over-drinking, overeating, overspending, or just cramming too much into a short period of time. And if you’re managing a family or little ones on vacation, the experience, while rewarding, may not feel as restorative for your stress or nervous system as you hoped.

Wellness shouldn’t be about escaping; it should be about enhancing your life every single day, so when you do get to go on vacation, you can truly enjoy it.

It's up to us to make caring for ourselves and prioritizing wellness a daily practice, so that every day feels enlivened and meaningful. All humans deserve access to wellness — not just through retreats or getaways, but as an integral part of life.

Don’t get me wrong — I love a great retreat, escaping into stories, and enjoying beautiful vacations. It’s a privilege to do those things. But what I’m truly passionate about is helping you bring health and wellness into your everyday moments, whether you’re on vacation or not. My goal has been to create a life I don’t feel the need to escape from — one where my daily routines nourish me and where I trust myself to make choices that support my well-being proactively, instead of constantly recovering from stress.

If you want to spend more time in joy and contentment, I am here to help you confidently establish daily practices that support you on both a cellular and spiritual level. Together, we can make those tough moments — when we don’t feel our best — the temporary ones, so that living the dream becomes your everyday reality.

Love,

Megan
