During the event, you’ll journey into the softer realms of your physical body, a space where you can truly rest and restore.

Join Melissa Richardson of Barefoot Creations & Teesha Bancroft of She Oak Healing for an opportunity of immersion and reconnection in a group atmosphere.
During a retreat, you will have the space necessary to detach from the day-to-day rush and tap into your inner peace. Our customized retreats provide a safe and nurturing environment to open the mind, soften the heart and free the spirit. Collectively, we will explore the divine soul as a state of energy that extends beyond the noise and influences of daily life. Connecting with yourself and others in heart-opening exercises to create balance, clarity, and awareness. We are dedicated to supporting you in releasing stress, anxiety, and negative energy while recharging and rejuvenating from head to toe.
Together Melissa and Teesha will integrate their healing gifts to create a lovely space for you to rest, recharge and feel nurtured. Melissa and Teesha are experienced healers who share the philosophy that when supported, the body, mind and spirit know exactly what to do. They guide you back to your true self by simply holding sacred space and providing tools to go inward and access more of you. They use plant medicine, reiki, bodywork and unconditional love to amplify the light within. If you know either of them, then you know how much they love to give. You will leave feeling like the divine mother gently washed away all of your internal aches and pains.
Offering a variety of persaonalized sessions, Melissa and Teesha will explore with you all options that would best suit your group.
