Self-care doesn’t end when the vacation does. 

Experience the Rooted Retreat: A luxurious all-inclusive retreat designed to bring balance to your life.


Where
: A private modern farmhouse in the Sonoran Desert, Arizona

When: Friday, September 23rd - Monday, September 26th

Who: Folks craving life balance and mind-body connection


Whether you’re a parent, a partner, a professional, or all of the above - you manage multiple responsibilities. It can be overwhelming on a good day, and after the last few years, you are craving solace. 

Yet, even finding the time or energy to plan your well-deserved getaway can be a challenge. 

Hey, I’m Dara and I’ve been in your shoes. That’s why I decided to create the Rooted Retreat. 

Too many successful folks, like you, are struggling to prioritize themselves. 

Let’s change that, together.

Rooted is designed to go beyond simple rest. Come to this retreat and learn how to care for your mind, body, and spirit sustainably in your day-to-day. 

All you have to do is show up, the rest is taken care of. 

Every detail is planned for comfort: 

  • When you arrive, an airport pickup service will take you to a modern farmhouse in the Sonoran Desert  

  • Meals catered by a private chef, with a menu mindful of your dietary preferences 

  • Spacious private home with an en-suite bathroom for each bedroom

  • Mocktail hour and relaxing trail walk in the Desert Botanical Garden with a private documentary-style photographer 

  • Plenty of time for naps  

Time expands to allow space for solitude balanced with structured activities designed to connect your mind, body, and spirit. 

This is not the time to work: Imagine a church retreat without religion, a camp retreat without an outhouse, a detox without restrictions, a mastermind without your computer, a family vacation without the parenting.

Just look at this place! So many options and opportunities for relaxation.

Rooted Retreat’s wellness and mindfulness practitioners understand how our responsibilities can build up and lead to a stressful, unbalanced existence. 

They’ve planned sessions to help maintain your center and incorporate moments of self-care into your regular routine.

Invest in yourself, disconnect from your duties, and recharge in an intimate location surrounded by nature, beauty, and new friends.

Limited to 11 attendees, Rooted is an intimate respite from the hectic nature of our daily lives during and after the retreat.

Vacations are an important reset, but what if you could bring that rested, centered, and balanced sensation into your regular routine? 

👯 Connect with fellow women. Learn from one another, share your successes and struggles, and create meaningful memories.
