retreats

Simply Grounded has partnered with Beth Lynch of Roots and Wings Energy to offer renewal based, women only retreats.

Together, Beth and I provide an immersive yoga, meditation, and energy medicine focused retreat experience. In addition, talented chef, Heather Campbell of Intentional Eats creates healthy, inspired, vegetarian seasonal meals for us to enjoy throughout our time together.

As of June 2023, we have hosted two, 3-day retreats on the beautiful Canandaigua Lake in NY state.

Located on the easternmost part of the Finger Lakes Region, the peaceful and pleasing locale provided a respite from our daily lives and time to reflect. Future locations are TBD but will include an environment just as peaceful.

Our women-only gatherings are a safe, accepting, and nourishing space that will expand your understanding of energetic rhythms and learn methods to invite more ease into your daily life.

our retreats include:

• Multiple mindfulness activities (journaling, meditation, guided imagery)

• Strengthening and relaxing yoga sessions (slow flow vinyasa, nidra, restorative)

• Stimulating energy focused learning sessions (includes movement activities)

• Delicious, vegetarian, and healthy meals

• Immersion in nature

• Quiet, independent time

• Multiple, fun gathering opportunities

past participants have great things to say about our retreats! 

“What a beautiful weekend! Individually and together you created such a sacred and safe space. My body, mind, heart, and soul feel so nourished.”


“Annie and Beth are a force and an ease at the same time! The retreat was exactly how I hoped and what I needed at this time in my life. Their knowledge and passion were inspiring and I look forward to the next one!”


“The routine of the day was the perfect amount of structure and free time. I liked bookending my day with meditation and yoga nidra.”


“I really liked the togetherness. We all come from different backgrounds and different experiences. We all found common threads that connect us as women. That is so important.”


“Annie, Beth and Heather are inspiring hosts and I loved learning and practicing strategies for strengthening my self care in a completely holistic way!”

As women, we don’t often offer ourselves special time to focus on, well, ourselves! We think this needs to be a priority for women. 

We tend, mend, mother, work overtime, and… We could all use a little respite to recenter and simply breathe easy for a few days. 

We invite you to prioritize your needs along with us. 

A time to center yourself and to develop mindfulness practices that will lead to more ease, more letting go, and letting be in your life is available for you!
