Natural Mountain Medicine
MOUNTAINS + YOGA + FRIENDS = NATURAL MEDICINE
As a Floridian, I often feel a void without the natural medicine I get with the energy of the mountains. So recently I experienced a 4-day yoga immersion in the Smokies mixed with misty mornings, fiery sunrises, new friends, and some quiet time to restore my body and spirit. Natural Medicines that positively affect us all through our senses.
Eyes see the beauty of Mother Nature at her best with her vivid seasonal changes and vistas that span vast horizons.
Ears hear the rustle of leaves, branches blowing in the wind, crispy sounds as we traverse a forest floor, and gentle chirps and tones living creatures make to communicate in their habitat.
Noses take in the aroma of natural vegetation and pure air that awaken and cleanse our nasal cavity and spark our olfactory nerve.
Hands brush and explore the grooves of a tree's bark, the soft, cool green moss, and even soil that may calm or heighten our sense of touch.
Healthy foods, beverages to savor and fuel your body for yoga practices that take you to your edge.

When you fuse the elements of creating intentions in an incredible space to practice yoga, inspiring teachers to guide us, and new like-minded friends to experience majestic mountains, you will discover my favorite formula for renewal. I came home transformed, lifted and truly grateful.
Unusual for me to place myself in the front row. Vulnerability allows us to build courage and be brave. I didn't just survive, I thrived!
Mychal, our passionate and gifted teacher who challenged us all in a powerful 2 hour practice to reach to a higher level with focus, belief and determination! I am grateful.
The most powerful sense was when kind people touched my heart. Meet my sweet, new friends, Jen and Becky. As I sat down to dine solo for lunch, I noticed a woman get up from her group to invite me to join their table. I gladly accepted as I packed up my belongings.
Later, I entered a full event, searching for a space for my mat. Suddenly I noticed this same woman motioning to me from the front row. To my surprise, she already created my place next to her. I knew I gained a beautiful gift of friendship, never to be taken for granted. Jen, I appreciate your memorable acts of kindness. I got that warm feeling like when someone saved you a seat next to them on a crowded bus.
This was my fourth retreat to the mountains when seeking a reset, a reboot to prepare me for what's ahead. They are all unique and powerful to transcend to the next level.
Stay tuned for a future announcement for my Fusion Explorers Retreat in western North Carolina in 2026. Dates and details are being finalized soon including the options to explore and restore in the healing forests viewing spectacular summits! Who's in?
