Rooted & Restored: Rest, Reconnection, and Renewal through Yoga and Nature

Rooted & Restored is a yoga and ecotherapy retreat designed for anyone craving a pause: an opportunity to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with what truly matters.


Set in a peaceful, nature-rich environment at Beyul Retreat Center in Meredith, Colorado (just one hour from Aspen), this immersive experience invites you to step away from the noise of daily life and return to a more grounded, restored version of yourself.


Through thoughtfully guided yoga practices led by co-host and 500-hour RYT Lauren Baughman, you’ll move with intention, release stored tension, and create space for both strength and softness—meeting your body exactly where it is.



Ecotherapy sessions led by co-host and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) Emily Weatherby invite you into mindful, intentional time outdoors. These nature-based experiences support nervous system regulation, quiet the mind, and foster a deeper sense of balance, belonging, and connection with the natural world.



This retreat is not about doing more — it’s about being. You’ll be supported through moments of rest, reflection, and reconnection, with time to journal, explore nature, share meaningful conversation, or simply enjoy stillness. Every element is intentionally curated to help you feel rooted in your body, restored in your spirit, and renewed in your outlook.



Whether you’re navigating burnout, transition, or simply seeking space to reset, Rooted & Restored offers a gentle path back to yourself—supported by the healing power of yoga and nature.
