Need a break from your busy, multi-tasking days? Could your perspective and energy levels use a boost? How about some soul-nourishing centering & grounding practices to rejuvenate your mind, body, spirit & emotions?

If you’re like me & most of the busy mamas I know, you’re likely feeling a big resounding “yes, please!”

Research shows that our health, resilience and ability to connect & thrive all depend on integrating regular recovery & renewal. Which is why you don’t want to wait ’til you feel overwhelmed/depleted/at your wits end.

So I invite you to join our community NOW to hear about the next in person event. Because for the cost of a visit to the spa, you’re getting a whole day of rejuvenation, sisterhood, and simple daily practices to keep you centered and calm all year long.

“Thank you for an amazing day. I’ve been on a lot of retreats and today ranked at the top of the list.”

“I am a busy mom of two and hadn’t put much thought into the chaos in my life or how I could fix it. With Shari’s suggestions I have been more mindful of my habits and routines. I am learning quick and easy strategies I can do on a daily basis that help me reduce my stress. On top of all that, Shari is so wonderful to work with!! She is kind and understanding and a joy to talk to.”

“One day with Shari and other women was life changing. I loved every minute of the day.”

“I just wanted to let you know how much I loved my first retreat! The time just flew by for me. I felt so relaxed when I left I thought I was going to fall asleep on the way home. You do such an amazing job of leading and facilitating the group and making it special for all of us”

“You have such a nice way of being the leader. You’re confident and interesting, you planned so well, and yet it wasn’t all about you. (does that make sense? I feel like I’ve been in group settings where either the leader is not comfortable/capable of leading and that’s not good, and on the flip side where the leader is great but it’s all about the leader) Anyhow, you’re just right!”

That’s what I’m creating for you here.

A loving environment and space to reconnect all those scattered pieces.

No guilt. No stress.

No shame about what you’re doing or not doing.

What this is not: No lectures, pitches or pressures. This isn’t a parenting workshop, although working on yourself is one of the most valuable, effective things you can do to be the loving role model I know you want to be for your children and loved ones.

This IS about creating space for reinvigorating but gentle movement (yoga), conversation, connection and compassion for each other and for your creative, passionate, authentic and whole self. So you can re-balance, refresh and renew…and reclaim the best YOU.

That’s it. Pure bliss…. away from your daily digital/information/responsibility overload. Don’t miss your chance!

Beyond excited to have you join our community.

Here’s what others have said about working with me….

“We asked Shari come in to support our staff during our busy season. She did a wonderful job guiding us through mindful movement and breathing practices and shared the importance of remembering to pause and breathe throughout the day…small acts of self-care can go a long way!” ~ Erin Jacob, PA-C Parker Pediatrics, Parker, CO

“Before taking Shari’s program, I was feeling overwhelmed by my to do list, and not prioritizing what’s truly important to me. I’m now able to look at overwhelm in a whole new way. It wasn’t time consuming at all and Shari was so supportive. My biggest wonder was “why didn’t I do this sooner?!” ~ Heidi R. – Dumfries, VA

“Shari is a wonderful motivator who understands the juggling act we all face. Her course was well designed and gave me valuable tools and insights to move from overwhelm to success in many areas. I feel very grateful to have participated.” ~ Lisa B. – Morrison, CO

“Think about how much money women spend on getting massages or paying for a gym or yoga membership that rarely gets used, all purchased with the intention of trying to achieve the balance between daily responsibilities and taking care of yourself. Imagine investing in a class that gives you the tools to excel in all aspects of your life so you can achieve your fullest potential. Women are under an extreme amount of pressure: taking care of the home, trying to excel in their career, trying to make their partner satisfied. Sometimes taking care of yourself falls to the back-burner. Spa Time Living gives you the tools to help you look at all of your commitments in life and streamline them with your personal goals. By investing a small amount of time a day using Spa Time Living’s tools I feel like I have the support I need to tackle my responsibilities one day at a time and develop the habits needed to achieve my goals.” ~ Sarah H. Denver, CO

“I took the Chaos Cleanse program because I really wanted to follow through with the things I promised myself I would follow through on. I LOVED Shari’s calm voice during the modules and how she was very much a part of the growth process with us. The program held me accountable and helped me hold myself accountable as well. I’m so much more consistent now with follow through on those things I promised myself.” ~ Sharon B. – NYC, NY

“If you are overwhelmed and don’t know where to begin to change your habits or productivity, you won’t find a more accessible, supportive, manageable approach. I’ve already seen a dramatic improvement in my productivity! (Awe.some.!)” ~ Natanya L. – South Burlington, VT

“Working with Shari has been a wonderful experience. She is supportive in such a sincere way that motivates you to make the changes you want to see in your life. I also love the support from the other participants in the group forum. I will continue to use the skills I learned through Shari’s program anytime I need some help committing to making changes.” ~ Jessica Wyman, Boise, ID

“Being a healthcare professional, I have extensive knowledge about what I need to do in order to experience optimal health—and I help others make these changes for themselves every single day. Yet, I’d always had a hard time implementing some of those behaviors for myself. This program gave me the tools I needed to put myself first and do for myself what I do so easily for others. I’ve made some big changes–and the whole process felt like there was much less effort than I’d expect.” ~ Melanie S. Washington, DC

“I was feeling like I need to implement so many little things into my life and that I just couldn’t do it without accountability and a will-power boost! I highly recommend Shari’s programs….you will be surprised just how much you’ll change in a few short weeks! Thank you, thank you, thank you!” ~Melissa Vandermeer, Austin, TX

“If you have trouble finding time to care for yourself, if you are feeling overwhelmed with the need to make time for the things that are important in your life, you really need to take this training program.(Mind-Body Habit & Willpower Training) I was THE hottest mess on the planet before this course, and if Shari can help fix ME, there’s no doubt she can help fix you. She’s LITERALLY changed my life.” ~ Farah B. NY

“I’m inspired (and slightly in awe) of everything that Shari is doing. I also really appreciated the reminder that excellence is a habit!” ~ Tabitha
