One of our favorite excursions in Belize? A stop at Premium Wines & Spirits 🍷🇧🇿

Now listen… when we say our journeys are intentional, that doesn’t mean we don’t know how to have FUN. 😌

While in Belize, we explored local flavors, connected with community business owners, and enjoyed a curated tasting experience at Premium Wines & Spirits. It wasn’t just about the drinks, it was about culture, hospitality, and understanding how local businesses thrive in a country surrounded by water, tourism, and tight-knit community.

Travel with Rooted Ascent Wellness means balance:
🌿 Reflection and restoration
📚 Cultural learning
🍷 Joy and celebration
🤎 Connection and sisterhood

Because wellness also looks like laughter, clinking glasses, and unwinding after a full day of island adventures.

Belize showed us that joy is part of the healing too.

Who’s joining us next time?

Whether we’re walking through sacred historical sites, engaging in naming ceremonies, sitting in reflection circles, or resting by the water, every experience is intentional. We believe healing happens when you understand where you come from and who you are becoming.

Founded by Dr. Erica Brown-Meredith, educator, social work scholar, counselor, and study abroad leader and Christina Brown-Jenkins, registered nurse, entrepreneur, and community advocate. Rooted Ascent Wellness blends education, wellness, cultural pride, and sisterhood. Together, we create spaces where learning meets liberation and travel becomes transformation.

🏝️ Lazy Lizard Vibes — Caye Caulker, Belize 🇧🇿

Listen… we had a BALL.

Floating in that crystal-clear water.
Drinks in hand.
Music playing.
Laughter echoes across The Split.

Lazy Lizard in Caye Caulker is not just a spot, it’s an experience. You’re literally sitting at water tables with your feet in the ocean, floating between conversations, toasts, and pure island joy.

No rush.
No stress.
Just sun, salt water, and good energy.

This is what “Go Slow” really feels like.

And yes… this will absolutely be part of our June experience. Because wellness also looks like laughter, connection, and letting yourself just be. 🌊✨

🏝️ Caye Caulker, Belize — Go Slow & Soak It In 🇧🇿

This June, our Rooted Ascent Wellness family will experience one of Belize’s most iconic island gems — Caye Caulker, where the motto is simple: Go Slow.

And we will.

We’ll explore the island the true local way, by golf cart (because that’s the only way to get around 😉). Cruising sandy roads, stopping where we want, moving with intention and ease.

🌊 Swimming in the crystal-clear inlet known as The Split
🪑 Relaxing at Lazy Lizard, feet in the water, drinks at the famous water tables
🦞 Walking the row of lobster vendors grilling fresh lobster right in front of yousmoky, seasoned, fresh off the grill
🍹 Island eats, tropical drinks, barefoot joy

But that’s just the beginning.

From Caye Caulker, you’ll have options, relax and enjoy the island at your own pace… or elevate the experience with excursions on the water.

🚤 Private boat rides from Caye Caulker
🏖️ Island hopping from caye to caye
🌴 Exploring private beaches
🌊 Snorkeling and open-water adventures

You can float.
You can feast.
You can explore.
Or you can simply rest.

Caye Caulker isn’t rushed.
It’s restorative. It’s playful. It’s freedom.

This summer in June, we’re not just visiting Belize, we’re experiencing it with intention, joy, and wellness woven throughout.

Belize 2026 is going to be unforgettable.

Close your eyes and picture this… sunrise over golden temples, the scent of fresh street spices in the air, ocean breezes brushing your skin, and moments of deep reflection woven between adventure. Thailand isn’t just a destination, it’s a full sensory, soul-stirring experience.

From sacred spaces and rich spiritual traditions to immersive local encounters, this journey is designed to nourish your mind, body, and spirit. We don’t just visit countries; we engage, we learn, we reflect, and we grow.

I’m so excited to share that our planned spaces are currently secured with deposits. 🙌🏾 The response has been incredible!

There is now a waiting list open. Once the full itinerary is solidified, we will determine if additional spaces can be released.

If Thailand has been on your heart ♥️ this may be your sign. 🇹🇭

Join the waiting list and stay connected as we finalize details.

Rooted. Intentional. Transformative

🇧🇿 Yesterday in Placencia… pure magic.

As we made our way back by boat from Placencia, Belize, the ocean surprised us with something unforgettable, a full pod of dolphins swimming right beside us.

Not in the distance.
Not for a quick second.
But gliding with us. Jumping. Playing. Moving in rhythm like they were escorting us home. 🐬

It was one of those moments where everyone went quiet… then laughter… then awe. Just deep gratitude for being present enough to witness it.

And here’s the beautiful part, this will be an experience for our group this summer in June. We were scouting out the trip, making sure every detail reflects adventure, joy, and connection.

Belize (annual trip) has a way of reminding you that when you slow down and move with intention, nature shows up.

Sea breeze. Open water. Dolphins beside the boat.

June 2026 is going to be special. 🌊✨

There’s something sacred about learning cultural dance in a Ghanaian village. 🇬🇭✨

The drums start… and before you even realize it, your body begins to respond. Not perfectly. Not polished. But honestly.

It wasn’t about performance, it was about connection. Elders guiding us. Children laughing with us. Feet in the earth. Rhythm in our bones.

Cultural dance isn’t just movement, it’s history, storytelling, resistance, joy, and community all at once. For many of us in the diaspora, it felt like remembering something our bodies already knew.

Moments like this remind us why we travel the way we do.
Not just to see a place — but to feel it. 💛🌍

Last year, our shirts told a story.

Ghana.
Togo.
Benin.

Three countries.
Countless lessons.
Ancestral ground.
Sacred waters.
History that reshaped how we see ourselves and the world.

From naming ceremonies to emancipation circles, from warrior legacies to spiritual traditions, we didn’t just travel, we returned differently.

And now…

June 2026 🌿
Belize.

A new landscape. A new layer of diaspora history. A new opportunity to deepen cultural understanding and collective healing.

Rooted Ascent Wellness is just getting started.

Where we’ve been matters.
Where we’re going matters even more.
