Relax & Allow Retreat

This past week, we had our Relax & Allow Retreat at Boheme Retreats, a Black-owned, women-owned RV glamping experience in the Catskills, NY. It was such a peaceful experience.

Eight of us settled into our RVs and came together to set our intentions for the time ahead. We began with some breath and meditation exercises, followed by journaling prompts and a self-massage exercise to get grounded. After grilling and enjoying a hearty meal, we turned in for the night.

The next day started with yoga and breathwork led by our team member, Laruice Olivera. After a refreshing lunch, we prepared for tubing down the nearby river and embarked on a guided hike. We discovered a beautiful waterfall where we let the cascading water wash away our worries and stress. The rest of the day was dedicated to relaxation and enjoying s'mores by the fire.

On the final day, we rested mostly, beginning with a special writing workshop focused on letting go. Later, Laruice guided us through some partner yoga and massage. We concluded our trip by reflecting on our experiences and setting intentions for bringing this peace into our daily lives before heading home.

Our time at Boheme Retreats was truly rejuvenating, and we are grateful for the peaceful moments we shared together. We look forward to more retreats that nourish the soul and foster community.
