Join me in the beautiful hills of the Central Coast California, for a long weekend of yoga, breathwork, and mindfulness.
Each day includes nourishing yoga flows, breathwork to promote relaxation and rejuvenation, delicious organic meals, and guided hikes on nearby picturesque trails. Feel a deeper sense of connectedness to yourself and the beautiful nature that surrounds the retreat sanctuary of Sagrada Wellness.
Hi! I'm Meredith - I'm a neuroimaging scientist and yoga & breathwork teacher and I integrate these studies to help people find relief from stress and overwhelm.
I have personally experienced the transformative power of yoga and breathing practices for calming the mind, body, and spirit.
Through this retreat, I'll share a gentle but challenging Vinyasa style, with a strong emphasis on alignment + body awareness. We'll also explore breathwork, and the incredible power of the breath to regulate the nervous system.
Together, we'll take a deep breath and slow down, immersing ourselves in the beautiful wilderness of Sagrada, finding the sacred within and around us.

Where is Sagrada located?
Sagrada Wellness is located in California's Central Coast, 12 miles north of San Luis Obispo. It is halfway between Los Angeles and San Francisco, 3.5 hour drive from each.
We are about 4 miles off the famed Highway 101.
What is the best airport to use to get to Sagrada Wellness?
Fly into San Luis Obispo's airport (SBP) if you want to get here fast and don't want to rent a car. It is about 20 minutes via taxi or Uber or Lyft ride from the airport in San Luis Obispo to Sagrada Wellness. If you want to see more of California, fly into Los Angeles (LAX), San Francisco (SFO) or San Jose (SJC). Flying into any of these three airports will require a car rental. The drive from these airports is beautiful and full of interesting sites along the way.
When should I arrive and depart?
Check in is after 2pm on the scheduled retreat date. Check out is around noon on the scheduled last day of the retreat.
Do guests come alone?
Most of our guests do come alone. By the end of their stay they usually have made some great new friends.
Is your food vegan/vegetarian/gluten free?
We are about 95% vegan, 99% vegetarian and 90% gluten free. We do love an occasional crunchy baguette with local goat cheese!
What should I wear?
In the summer it can get warm and you will want to wear less. The winters can have cold nights and warm days, so layers are essential. Definitely, bring a sturdy pair of hiking boots. And don't forget a bathing suit for the gorgeous salt water pool and communal hot tub!
Do you have WiFi?
Yes. We have free WiFi for our guests to use.
Will my cell phone work?
Yes. We have great cell service on the ranch.
