Why This Retreat
High-performing professionals, such as executives, entrepreneurs, engineers, product leaders, and creators—and healthcare workers often give endlessly to others while running on empty. The Reset Retreat is an intimate, private retreat for just 40 guests, designed to shift you from constant go-mode into a state of being regulated, grounded, and restored. You’ll also take home simple practices to help you recreate that reset in daily life.

Your Retreat Guides
This evening is guided by a team of experienced practitioners who bring together movement, reflection, and sound. Each facilitator offers their unique expertise to create a restorative experience that helps you release stress, reconnect with yourself, and return renewed:
Charmaine Horn, BSN, RN, EFTMP-C, is a Registered Nurse, Certified Qigong (pronounced "Chee-Gong") Instructor, and Certified EFT Practitioner. After working 8 years as a psychiatric nurse, she realized that the psychiatric medications she gave to her patients rarely seemed to help improve her patients' symptoms long-term. She left her nursing job in 2020 to pursue new complementary holistic methods to help people heal from emotional and mental health issues. Charmaine is on a mission to help people overcome stress, anxiety, and depression naturally with Qigong so they could live a more joyous and fulfilling life.
