Reclaiming Our Bodies W/ Pacifica

Where do I even begin… This was our longest retreat to date and it was truly a special experience. We took a trip out to Hilton Head Island for a week long wellness retreat that would be centered around Reclaiming Our Bodies. For this trip we partnered with Pacifica who’s initiative is also to empower women in their skin & bodies while spreading love and encouraging self-care. Our first day on the island we unpacked, and enjoyed a nice family dinner together, we also discussed what some of our intentions are going to be for this trip. Tuesday we started the morning off by enjoying a group yoga class on the beach led by Kim Nicole. After stretching it our and realigning we all headed to lunch for a seafood feast with Hudson on The Docks. Wednesday was full of activities, after our family breakfast we headed to a salt marsh paddle boarding tour. For most of us it was our first time doing this activity but we were fast learners. When we were done paddle boarding we headed home to decompress before enjoying an amazing cacao ceremony and sound bath meditation led by Jessica Golden. The next day we woke up bright and early to head to the beach for a group afro dance class led Kim Nicole, it was so much fun dancing together and feeling free. After dancing under the sun we pampered ourselves with some of the Pacifica goodies and relaxed for a few hours before heading home to get ready for our sunset dolphin cruise which was so beautiful. Friday was our day to relax and reset we started the day with another yoga class led by Kim, and then we spent the rest of the day decompressing and enjoying our beautiful retreat location. Saturday we enjoyed our last family breakfast together and began saying our goodbyes, it was bitter sweet but we all felt so grateful for the time we had spent together and all of the amazing memories we made along the way.
