At STRATA, self-care and health care become one—and we have created a retreat based on self-care through many forms—through movement, meditation, nature, food, spa and wellness experiences, and through self-discovery and education, providing you with the tools and self-care habits to integrate into your busy lifestyle. Self-love embodies self-acceptance, self-gratitude, compassion, and consciously devoting the time to give back to you. We will create space and community for you to cultivate self-love and implement self-care in the moment and for years to follow. Make a commitment to show up for yourself so you can better serve those you love.
