Pause. Breathe. Be.

You wrap yourself in your soft robe and step into the serene lounge, where the light streams through wide windows next to the fireplace. You sink into a plush chair, a steaming cup of herbal tea in hand. Around you, other women on retreat sit in friendly quiet, their faces reflecting the same deep calm you feel. There’s a subtle bond here—an unspoken understanding that you’ve all gifted yourselves this time to pause, to breathe, to be.

This Is Your Time.

The gentle hum of conversation begins, laughter bubbling as someone shares a funny moment from earlier in the day. You feel completely at ease, connected, and renewed. Outside, the trees stand steady and timeless, and inside, you realize: this is what it feels like to let go and truly recharge—not just your body, but your spirit. By the time you leave, your skin glows, your spirit feels light, and you’re reminded of something you’d almost forgotten: You deserve this.

Meet Your Host: Beth Kruger

Beth Kruger facilitates wellness retreats and experiences for women over 40 that focus on core pillars of a healthy lifestyle: nutritious food, movement, stress reduction and relationships. Beth offers transformative experiences that support the transitions of midlife by normalizing and celebrating the aspects of living well, of aging with grace and purpose, and of gaining wisdom and confidence in a female body surrounded by a culture that is obsessed with the physical appearance of youth.
