forest therapy, Wellness workshops & retreats in the Blue Ridge Mountains
Retreat with us for rest, connection, and renewal.
Conquer fatigue and burnout, and revitalize the spirit through a deeper connection with yourself, with other like-hearted people, and with nature.
Tired and Uninspired
It’s the same thing every day–wake up, work, home, sleep. There’s an occasional break in the monotony with a dinner out or weekend activity. But you can’t seem to shake an underlying, chronic sense of boredom with your life.
Maybe you’re exhausted from the hustle to prove yourself at work, to be a good partner, parent, child, etc. No matter how hard you try, it never feels like enough.
You think to yourself…is this it? Is this what life is?

Our programs are designed to enrich your life. Take a look and find inspiration.
Hi, I’m Stephanie (she/her).
I’m a psychotherapist and certified forest therapy guide. I started Zesty Retreats because I wanted to step out of the therapy office and provide retreats that were more than just an escape from daily life. I wanted to help people experience the healing power of present awareness, with community, in nature.
I have felt firsthand the benefits of these practices and I believe they’re a powerful antidote to our increasingly disconnected, isolated, and depressed state of existence.
What is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?
MARY OLIVER
