About the Retreat
For most of us, the reality of modern life includes stress as an everpresent and unwelcome companion. The constant demands, deadlines, and pressures can leave us feeling drained and disconnected from ourselves, insight, and inspiration. But this is not the world we were evolved for. In order to thrive and not just survive, it is crucial to recognize the importance of designated spaces for deep reset. These sanctuaries offer us a chance to pause, recalibrate, and realign with our inner rhythms and our inner healer, providing the vital breathing room we need to navigate life’s challenges with clarity and resilience. Our body, our breath, collective care, and the natural world hold potent medicine for our well-being and our ability to thrive.
This retreat is led by, Jenn Wooten, an experienced yoga therapist whose specialization is in nervous system health and stress and trauma recovery, and Brenda Lee Gauthier, a clinical psychotherapist and yoga teacher with an extensive background in somatic approaches to therapy. Their combined experience in holistic and somatic healing will help you return to your life with a renewed sense of balance, clarity, and vitality. Through their work, Brenda and Jenn experience daily the power of the body, when held in support, to return to balance, health, and well-being.
Open to all levels of yoga and meditation practitioners, this retreat is ideal for those looking to:

Brenda Lee Gauthier, LCSW, LCDC, SEP
Brenda is a breathwork facilitator and licensed clinical therapist specializing in recovery from developmental trauma, addiction and ADHD. Her transformational experience in breathwork 18 years ago is what inspired her career shift into psychotherapy. The principles and philosophy of Integrative Breathwork serve as the foundation of her therapeutic approach and inspired continued studies in nervous system regulation and training in additional somatic modalities including Somatic Experiencing, TRE, and Yoga. Over the years Brenda has adapted the breathwork process to include the most up to date learnings from neuroscience and trauma research. She believes wholeheartedly in the transformational qualities that breathwork can facilitate on multiple levels across body, mind and spirit. Consequently she is excited to help educate others so they can begin incorporating this powerful modality into their own practices in a responsible and effective way. Brenda has been facilitating breathwork workshops for communities, residential treatment centers and individuals for more than 15 years.
