Below are the details and schedule from our weekend retreat that we will look to offer in the spring/summer:FeaturesThe Ralia retreat is a home away from home that is designed to provide many opportunities for deep relaxation as well as exercise. The chalet is surrounded by a small mountain (Montagne Noire) and a quiet lake (Lac Boeuf). In the summer plan to swim, kayak, paddleboard, hike, bike, run, eat from the garden, and enjoy the gorgeous summer weather. In the winter plan to snowshoe, downhill ski or cross-country ski, try a Scandinavian spa experience, do hot yoga, and cozy up to the rustic fireplace. This is a luxury retreat so expect delicious hot drinks, a bathrobe, slippers, soaps, body scrubs, and moisturizers are all provided. There is even an option to purchase a bamboo toothbrush so all you would need to bring are your clothes!EventsPearle will be providing a meal planning session and a food preparation session to match your active lifestyle. Jana will be organizing several fitness activities including a hike to a mountain viewpoint, a run, a circuit training, and a relaxing foam roller session to work out the kinks.RelaxationIn between activities there will be plenty of time to relax. Use of the whirl pool hot tub, dry sauna, and dips in the lake (even in November!) are part of the Scandinavian spa experience planned.
