Transformative daily practices for deep purification of the body and soul

Trauma Yoga Therapy

Trauma is stored in your fat cells and in your body. As you cleanse it is important to move with expert guidance. Everything is connected. Trauma-aware & mental health yoga’s goal is to assist you in being more mindful of your body's sensations. By doing so, you can then focus on releasing any accumulated emotions, stress, and tension.

Trauma-aware and Mental Health Yoga is an approach to create a safe, supportive space where students can build their confidence to learn and practice emotional regulation, emotional agility, and learn how to effectively work with their nervous system to consciously activate their parasympathetic (rest and digest) nervous system. TMH Yoga provides each student with the opportunity to feel safe in their body, in control of their emotions, and experience greater inner peace.

Yin Yoga and Yoga Nidra

Yoga nidra and yin yoga offer invaluable benefits during a cleansing or detoxification process. These practices promote deep relaxation, reducing stress levels and supporting the body's natural detox mechanisms by minimizing cortisol impact. Enhanced sleep quality from yoga nidra aids in effective bodily repair and detoxification. Yin yoga improves circulation and lymphatic flow, aiding in the removal of toxins. Both practices cultivate mindfulness and body awareness, facilitating better lifestyle choices and emotional cleansing. They also promote balanced energy flow through gentle stretching and target specific organs to support their function. Together, yoga nidra and yin yoga provide a holistic approach to cleansing, nurturing physical, mental, and emotional well-being throughout the detox journey.

Sound Healing

& Breathwork

Sound healing and breathwork are powerful practices because they tap into fundamental aspects of human experience and physiology. Sound vibrations can affect us on a cellular level, promoting relaxation, reducing stress and aiding in physical and emotional healing. Breathwork techniques can regulate the nervous system, enhance mental clarity, and facilitate emotional release. Together, they offer holistic approaches to wellness by harmonizing the body, mind and spirit.

This Retreat was amazing beyond words. Every piece and moving part that Shauna put together worked beautifully to achieve healing on all levels. Her passion shines through in everything she does, and it’s obvious she cares deeply about sharing her gifts with the world. I didn’t know what to expect, but was pleasantly surprised at the extraordinary healers and practices that all came together in a single week. The food was outstanding; Grace’s meals and dietary education facilitated each of us to heal more each day. I came into the Retreat in severe pain from injuries, and left feeling like a new person- no pain, my mobility is back, and best of all, feeling STRONG again! Thanks Shauna, from the bottom of my heart!

Gail Geerling

Attending the Eat to Heal retreat with Shauna and Grace in October was exactly the reset I needed to reclaim my health, well-being, and inner peace. Every detail was so carefully curated, from the stunning beach house location to the transformative healing, yoga & massage sessions that helped us reconnect with ourselves.

I didn’t know I could love vegan food so much, but Grace absolutely blew me away.
Every meal was filled with love and intention, and the presentation was truly a work of art. I’m usually a snacker, but Grace’s nourishing, perfectly balanced meals showed me that I don’t need to eat as much to feel satisfied. I even lost weight and felt slimmer, tighter, and more agile.
Grace is an absolute genius in the kitchen!

Shauna, on the other hand, is pure magic. She’s an alchemist who creates transformation everywhere she goes. No stone was left unturned, everything was carefully thought out.
From leading yoga in the morning to leading nightly yoga nidra sessions that brought us into a deep state of rest, Shauna’s presence was grounding and inspiring.
The facilitators were excellent!

This retreat wasn’t just informative—it was life-changing. After the most taxing & emotionally draining last year, this was the gift I gave myself to support my healing journey.
I can’t recommend the Eat to Heal retreat enough. It was a beautiful, nourishing, and soul-healing experience that helped me reset my mind, body, and spirit for the new year.
Highly highly recommend.
