About this Retreat
My journey to this 111-acre sanctuary wasn’t a straight path; it was a reclamation. While my academic foundation provided me with the tools to analyze the world, it was the whispers of a life lived for others that eventually led me to the silence of the forest.
From the Source to the Soul
To truly understand the rhythm of peace, I traveled to the birthplace of yoga: Rishikesh, India. Living among spiritual gurus at the foot of the Himalayas, I immersed myself in the Eight Limbs of Yoga.
Beyond the physical asanas, I was initiated into the ancient arts of Pranayama (breathwork), meditation, and the transformative power of Sound Healing. It was there I learned that a guide’s role is not to "fix," but to create a vessel where your own inner wisdom can finally be heard.
A Trauma-Informed Heart
My approach is rooted in a deep, personal understanding of what it means to carry heavy things. My own upbringing taught me early on that safety is not found in the world, but built within the body and mind.
This lived experience has made me a fiercely trauma-informed guide. I recognize the stories we all carry—the shame, the fear, and the inherited weight—and I provide a safe, steady land where those stories can finally be released without judgment.
The Fire of Resilience
Get Calm Lavender Farm was born out of a dream shared with my husband, but it was forged in the fire of unparalleled opposition. At every turn, we have faced walls meant to keep us small. Yet, my lineage is one of people who were forced to bend, but never broke. Where others imposed ceilings, we continue to find the strength to shatter them for the generations that passed, and for the ones that follow.
I'm not here to lead; I'm here to walk beside you and give you the tools you need to follow your own inner wisdom.

Step into the energy of full expansion—where growth is visible, vibrant, and alive. This is a day to release limiting narratives, reconnect with your confidence, and allow yourself to be seen in a way that feels grounded and true.
Slow down. Breathe deeper. Come back to yourself.
What this Day Feels Like
A slower pace.
A quieter mind.
A body that begins to soften.
You’ll be guided through simple, supportive practices that bring you out of your head and back into your body—blending breath, gentle movement, stillness, and time in nature.
There is space built into the day.
Space to walk, to sit, to reflect… or to simply do nothing at all.
The Outcome
This is not an escape from your life. It’s a way to return to it differently. You will leave with the ability to recognize what’s happening as it’s happening—to notice tension, frustration, or anger rising in real time… and meet them with steadiness instead of reaction.
You will leave:
More aware of your internal patterns
More grounded in your body
More capable of pausing before reacting
More confident in how to bring yourself back to centre
This isn’t a temporary calm. It’s a practiced, embodied way of being you can carry into your everyday life. You will walk away with simple tools to regulate your nervous system, shift your state, and respond with clarity—even in the moments that used to overwhelm you.
