Join us for a transformative weekend designed to guide those navigating traumas, anxiety, and the path of recovery toward deep healing and inner peace. Centered on the experiences of individuals in recovery, this retreat combines yoga, somatic, and mindfulness practices to create a safe space for reflection, growth, and renewal. This weekend is about recovery: reclaiming your wholeness, stepping into a life of balance, joy, and freedom.
Throughout the weekend, you will explore gentle yet powerful practices that connect the body, mind, and spirit. From trauma-informed yoga sessions to somatic exercises that unlock stored tension, each activity is thoughtfully crafted to support your healing journey. With a focus on self-compassion and resilience, you will learn tools to manage anxiety, process emotions, and reconnect with your authentic self.

About DeAnna Loux
As a person in long-term recovery, facilitator DeAnna Loux received her Yoga Teacher Certification with a local studio specializing in trauma-informed yoga practices. After completing the 200-hour program, DeAnna sought to deepen her knowledge of trauma and anxiety in order to help not only herself, but also others in recovery, by furthering her education and going on to receive her trauma-informed yoga and somatic healing certifications.
DeAnna teaches yoga locally and also guides guests at The Retreat through a similar trauma discussion and movement practice. As someone who intimately understands the challenges of trauma, addiction, and recovery, this retreat intends to offer a supportive environment where vulnerability is honored and community is cultivated. Whether you are seeking to deepen your recovery experience, begin to process unresolved wounds, or simply find a sense of calm amidst life’s chaos, this retreat is a sanctuary for healing and self-discovery.
