Here are some 2017 retreat ideas I’m throwing around. Please check which retreats you would be interested in attending if the price is right. All THF retreats are electronics free in public spaces. *

Summer 2017 rustic camping retreat (Thursday or Friday through Sunday): An Intro to Functional Medicine and Ancestral Eating - The Basics Behind Healing Naturally and Preventative Care. This would be a bring your own camping gear retreat! We would provide location, food, lectures and exercise program, but this would definitely be “roughing” it!

Fall 2017 family retreat (Thursday or Friday through Sunday at Mercey Hot Springs - two hours from the Bay Area): (also) An Intro to Functional Medicine and Ancestral Eating - The Basics Behind Healing Naturally and Preventative Care for Your Whole Family! This would also be more rustic. There would be some tent camping, RV spots available, two airstreams to rent and about six small cabins. We would provide location, food, lecture, exercise program and kid-friendly cooking demo. There’s a warm springs pool here, plus individual soaking tubs. Massages and (limited) babysitting would be available!

Fall 2017 Sunday through Thursday (October 29th - November 2nd): “Third Act” Retreat for the Over 40 Crowd! At Mayacamas Ranch outside of Calistoga - this retreat would feature a trained psychotherapist who specializes in preparing those of us who are transitioning into the second and third “acts” in our lives. This retreat would feature a more workshop-type model with smaller breakout sessions. We would discuss emotional transitions going into retirement age, financial preparation and optimal nutrition to keep you going strong well into your elder years. We would offer an ancestral eating plan and light exercise.

Here are some 2018 retreat ideas I’m throwing around. Please check which retreats you would be interested in attending if the price is right. All THF retreats are electronics free in public spaces. *

The Sexual Healing Farm: A long weekend (three night) retreat in the bay area for couples featuring an education program centered on improving or keeping your sex life active. Also a functional medicine and nutritional look at what causes a low libido. As with most of my other retreats, this would also include meditation, an elimination diet kick-off and light exercise program.

Women’s Hormone Balance Retreat: A long weekend (three or four night) retreat on the west coast featuring nutrition lectures to help balance your hormones. Similar to our last women’s retreat, this would focus a bit more on nutrition and would also include meditation, an elimination diet kick-off and light exercise program.

An Intro to Functional Medicine and Ancestral Elimination Diet Kick-off for All Ages: A non-rustic long weekend retreat (way more comfortable than camping!) featuring lectures on functional medicine and nutrition. This is all about learning how to reduce inflammation in your body to help ease chronic pain and symptoms of chronic illness and auto-immune disease. Also important for preventing illness. As with most of my other retreats, this would also include meditation, an elimination diet kick-off and light exercise program.

The Functional Medicine Approach to Weight Loss: A week-long non-rustic retreat in the spring (maybe outside of CA) focussing on a realistic and sustainable approach to weight loss. As with most of my other retreats, this would also include meditation, an elimination diet kick-off and light exercise program.

The Paleo Summer Camp!: A long-weekend (Thursday through Sunday) camp-like rustic retreat for the younger crowd featuring a paleo reset elimination diet eating plan, nutrition & intro to functional medicine lectures, meditation and a more robust exercise program (think bootcamp or crossfit lite) + yoga!
