This retreat is designed for caretakers looking for a space to slow down and show up for their own care in order to best care for themselves and their families. "Whether you are feeling overwhelmed as a new parent or simply want to slow down during the constant seasons of transition as a parent of tweens and teens, this retreat will help you feel grounded and balanced," Behan added. "It's all about celebrating your dedication as a parent and actually committing to and giving back to yourself what you already give to others."

"While we all know the benefits of self-care—greater confidence and joy, stronger relationships, enhanced productivity and communication—that doesn't mean we always put that knowledge into practice," said Behan, a licensed marriage and family therapist and certified yoga teacher. "The good news is you can take incredible care of yourself, all from the comfort of your home. It goes beyond bubble baths and massages to creating regular habits that support your all-around wellness."
