I was laying in bed the other night (when my best ideas seem to come) and I heard a thought that maybe the topic of this retreat is hard to grasp right now. Joy, happiness, & play feel really far off, don’t they? The simple days of playing until the street lights come on or even the days when this app was called “The Facebook” and you were slamming shots at Big 12 have seemed to pass us by.

In today’s world, we’re bombarded with triggering news, stories, hardships, crimes, and sorrow 24/7. If you look for it, it’s there. Whether it’s next door or across the world, you have instant access. And never before have we been more anxious, burnt out, sick, and disconnected. There is an obvious connection, but we struggle to turn it off. Even if we can tell it’s screwing our nervous system one scroll at a time.

This retreat is your invitation. To put your phone away. Turn off the news. Stop your scroll and create the space for your mind to be clear, think and reflect on what actually serves you in life and how to add more of that in.

I picked joy and play because I think women are craving this more than ever and if it feels like a reach to hit those emotions when you feel low. Let this be your supported first step in your transition.

We have built in the support systems to help you reach a new level of joy - from stress coaching, relationship coaching, brain and hormone discussions and nourishing, healing food, to restorative moments like lakeside guided mediation, yoga and sound bowls. If you fully embrace this weekend, you will leave feeling more resourced for letting go of triggering behaviors.

Sprinkled throughout are playful moments, should you choose, to laugh, engage, connect and feel that ease that used to be so damn easy. And you get to do it with new friends. In groups where it feels so good to show up and truly be seen. 👀

We only have 2 private bedrooms and one bunk bed left for April, so if this calls to you, if you need a reset, reach out. It’s going to be an unforgettable weekend and I so wish you could join us! 💜

Candi is the perfect example of joy and playfulness, exuding kindness and compassion. When thinking of playful endings to the retreat, I wanted someone who could help us get out of our heads and into our bodies. A freeing and empowering practice, that heals the child within. After sharing this vision with Candi, she came up with the perfect activity that will create so much space in your heart for joy, love and play.

I’m so excited to introduce you all to Candi Leaderbrand, our ceremonial leader for our Saturday night closing session. .magic

We just know our guests are going to love Lindsay Walden! Lindsay has multiple passions, but two of them are exploring relationships and the brain. At our April retreat, Lindsay will be talking with us about relationships, answering those more intimate questions we might have and diving into the fascinating world of brain health.

If you’ve ever been through perimenopause or menopause, you probably see how the two are very connected. 😉

She’ll teach us about the latest technologies using sound frequencies and brain waves to improve areas of the brain that may be struggling.

Meet Lindsay:

Hi, I’m Lindsay, a Licensed Professional Counselor, Certified S*x Therapist, and Cognitive Neuro Therapist. My work blends neuroscience, emotional health, and practical tools to help people better understand their minds, emotions, and relationships.

I’m the creator of Cognitive Neuro Therapy (CNT) and the Neuro Monsters framework, a brain-based model designed to make emotional patterns easier to recognize and navigate. I also work with Cereset, integrating brain science into the healing and regulation process.

I’m truly honored to be part of this retreat and excited to introduce a very special Neuro Monster created just for this event.

Want to see Lindsay in action? Join us at Women’s Wellness Weekend in April!

Is there anything better than sunshine poking through after a long winter?

As we head into Spring, take advantage of this time to begin to desensitize your eyes to sunlight by getting lots of morning sun and some afternoon sun without sunglasses. Your eyes will adjust over time and do far better at being exposed year round (or as much as you can tolerate). Working on this early helps when that sun gets super bright this summer.

Why does this matter? Because sunlight is a code to our bodies, read through our eyes! It helps set our circadian rhythm, helps our skin know how to protect itself and helps with hormone signaling in our bodies. When we wear sunglasses, we are more likely to burn as our skin doesn’t have the signal through our eyes about the strength of the UV.

Interested in understanding this more? I loved a course I took years ago in this topic. I’ll drop the link.

Here’s a snippet of the course I took:

“The problem with sunglasses is that they confuse your brain & blunt circadian and hormone signaling.

When light enters your eyes - your brain is informed that it is time for your skin to make melanin & urocanic acid (see paper) - which can prepare your skin to receive stronger sunlight. In other words - unfiltered light coming in to your eyes communicates to your brain - which then communicates to your skin.

When you wear sunglasses you also tell your brain to stop making cortisol during the day (which can create other downstream hormone imbalances) & it can make you more prone to depression (see study)

Aromatic amino acids in your eyes capture photons from UV light that transform tryptophan into serotonin - which is later recycled into that night's melatonin (sunglasses can disrupt this process).

So not only can sunglasses make you more prone to sunburn, hormone imbalances & insomnia - but -they can also disrupt serotonin production which affects behavior and mental abilities (and melatonin controls energy production & cleanup in the mitochondria).

UV light exposure to the eyes triggers the activation of a chemical called melanocyte-stimulating hormone, which causes the skin to thicken and darken as a protective measure against harmful rays. (see study)

This study also shows how UVB light in your eyes is important for nitric oxide production, lowered inflammation & skin protection.

HOWEVER - It is still important to protect your eyes if you are on sand, snow, water, concrete (anywhere there is an unnatural glare) - or while driving. Please use your best discretion & know that you CAN still damage your eyes if you look directly at the sun.”

This is my nerdy passion for helping people rethink what actually causes problems in our body and one of the biggest demonized helpers to our health is the sun!! ☀️

✨ We’re so excited to welcome Amanda Baenisch of Daily Apple Wellness! ✨

Amanda will guide us through hormone health and dysfunction, and how to bring the body back into balance naturally and with supportive therapies. She’ll also be offering energy healing through BodyTalk, a powerful process that helps release stuck energy and restore communication within the body.

✨ Meet Amanda:
Amanda Baenisch, CNHP, is a Natural Health Practitioner with 17 years of experience supporting clients through natural health counseling. She continues to expand her education and is currently working toward a doctorate in alternative medicine. Based in the Lake of the Ozarks, Amanda works with clients locally and virtually across the U.S.
