Why Everyone Needs a Retreat


Listen Later

Tune into the newest episode of our Energy Works Podcast, where science meets spirit to help you heal, energize, and thrive. 

Feeling burned out or stuck in routine? 

In this solo episode, Lauren explores how retreats act as powerful nervous system resets, helping you step out of daily patterns, restore energy, and reconnect to joy, play, and perspective.

Through stories from Breitenbush Hot Springs and Hollyhock Retreat Center, and even inspiration from Ram Dass, Lauren shares how retreats support deep rest, creativity, and meaningful change.

This episode is an invitation to step away from the noise, reset your energy, and create your own retreat, whether it’s a weekend away or just a few hours offline. Now available wherever you get your podcasts!
