Listening to the sound of the trees in the wind, the leaves crunch beneath our feet.

The smell of cured firewood and an apple candle.

The feeling of pulling up to the Catskill house and seeing old friends greet you in the doorway. Meeting new people.

There is something so magical about our annual Catskills retreat.

Can’t wait to see what this year holds ✨🪵

If I had to “pick your fighter” for all of the astrological events, Spring Equinox would be THE ONE.

Clear your field, plant your seeds, water ‘em.

May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds.​​​​​​​​

Intro post
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Hi IG!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Welp, just showing up again. For myself. For the Caya Community. For you…hiii 👋🏻
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My name is Chelsea and I launched Caya retreats in 2018 as a way to combine a few of my favorite things: movement, creativity, styling, hospitality, traveling and FOOD.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Pre-Caya I was a creative writer and poet who hosted weekly write nights in Philadelphia (shoutout Monday Night Writers, Little Berlin and Viking Mills). I combined my love of writing with my love of art, producing poetry in physical form and was featured in a few great exhibits and hung along artists like Banksy, Cleo Wade and Shepard Fairey to name a few.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Pre-poet era, I was in love with all things hospitality and wine. I went to school and graduated w/ two majors: Hospitality & Tourism Management and Marketing. I love being able to FEEL a brand. I love small touches and exceptional service. I love consistency and knowing I won’t be disappointed spending money on a specific product or establishment. I can be internally snobby and have high standards. I believe word of mouth is THE most powerful thing to strive for and respect.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Today, I am still creative in art and poetry and movement, but also in other ways. I’m dipping my toes into interior design. I might even hang the pictures I’ve collected over the years on my own walls soon - don’t doubt me, mom!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I find my inspiration from traveling - really, truly connecting with people from different places and what they’re proud of, what they’re known for. I find my inspiration in nature, the patterns and colors they’re constantly gifting us. I find my inspiration surrounding myself with other creatives, the ones who still dream and make something from their gut, the soul, their heartbreak - not some copy cat s**t.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Anyway, if you made it this long, THX. Send me your three favorite emojis so I know you made it 🫶🏻🐚🧿

Happy international Women’s day to all of the women of !

The greatest gift of this organization has been getting to know the intelligent, hilarious, sexy, smart, playful, introverted, extroverted, creative women that have joined these retreats.

Women have so much to offer the world, and so much to offer each other. The relationships that have bloomed and remained years after these pictures is so special. Women who were initially strangers before joining a caya retreat, now travel the world together, sign up for races together, take up hobbies like gardening, singing or knitting together….so many inspiring things, now done together within this community.

THANK YOU to each woman who has been a part of ✨🪩🌊

ps - I just realized many of these pictures are cute butts, girls are awesome 🍑😉

The eagle has landed.

We are arriving into the mountains for our annual Catskills Retreat. Expect weird. Expect playful. Expect nervous system on Do Not Disturb mode. Expect pantless treks through the woods to the sauna. Expect it all and then some.

Also, while we are here, it’s hard not to think of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Western North Carolina, TN and FL that was affected during Hurricane Helene. As more videos and images start to surface, it’s clear that we live in a world full of helpers.

“When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news,” Mr. Rogers said to his television neighbors, “my mother would say to me, ‘Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping. ‘”
