Escape with Abundelicious to the Caribbean coast of Colombia. We’re going to mellow out and enjoy our private beach while doing yoga, sipping smoothies and regaining a balanced and healthy relationship with food because isn’t that a bit of a struggle for all of us? Also, let’s not forget February winter weather… yikes.

Retreat from all the tiggers of stress and emotional eating in your life, so you can learn tools and methods of empowering yourself so you don’t fall right back into that same cycle of self sabotage. This is the RESET button we all need after a long and indulgent summer and the tinsel 10.

It’s so exciting to watch the transformations that occur when we step out of our routines, stressors, and environmental limitations and start reevaluating habits, narratives, and possibilities. Taking a few days to really commit to and focus on our goals gives us a chance to thrive. We are setting ourselves up for long term success well after we return home because we have given ourselves this jump start.

We are here with you during this week to not only help you eat well and feel great, but to teach you how to make eating well and feeling great LAST. How do we make these changes manageable so that they are sustainable… this is what we’ll be learning especially as it relates to stress eating and emotional entanglements with food.

Most of us know “what” to eat, but have trouble sticking with that when we’ve had a sh*tty day and just want ice cream. Then, we feel guilty about that and tell ourselves we’re bad at this or that it’s too hard and then eat even more ice cream.

Ok, deep breath. We have tools for this and we want to share them with you.

Sarah Philipp

This is my fourth year providing retreats and it's one of my favorite things to do (obviously).

My approach as a holistic nutritionist is to help people find a happy place of eating the foods they enjoy, feel satisfied, and be forever liberated from diets and deprivation and
I want them to find it flexible, fun and free of denial and discipline. Retreats are the perfect space in which to learn and practice these ideas and tools.

My own journey with nutrition began years ago when I was experiencing a lot of anxiety, digestive issues, and the nearly impossible task of not falling fast asleep at 2:30pm each day. The problem was, indeed, my diet, and very shortly after I made the necessary changes, I felt better than I had in a long, long time.

So many people are stuck in a cycle of feeling lousy, but not knowing how to feel better or where to begin. There are few better ways of beginning than immersing yourself in resources, a supportive environment and plenty of sunshine :)

Testimonials:

have attended several of Sarah's classes. They were excellent! I learned a lot of new information that I have applied to my life as I try to regain my health. She has also been very supportive and caring, always answering my questions and addressing my concerns.

Even though I have been through many different food programs, it was only when I started to see Sarah that I really learned the importance of nutritional value in the foods we select to eat. Every appointment provided me with further education as to the "right" foods for a healthier life. She taught me about choosing organic, eating gluten-free, and deciding about dairy choices. She always addresses my concerns and helps me to find that which will make me feel better.

Sarah's passion about the power of food is life changing. Learning how to make the choice to nurture and heal with food seems like it should be fundamental, but it is actually revolutionary. I don't know how our culture got so disconnected from real food that we can simultaneously stuff and starve ourselves. But I do know that Sarah Philipp can help us regain connection to our bodies and our world by teaching us easy ways to eat consciously again.

My husband] and I have lost a total of 60 pounds between the 2 of us. That's right...60! Thank you! You are a rockstar!

It has been a pleasure working with Sarah. She has given me the tools to learn how to eat and live better given the challenges of traveling on a weekly basis for my job. Her insight has allowed me to lose weight over the last number of months and realize that a diet is short solution, while what Sarah is offering is an amazing lifestyle.

As someone who has suffered from a "tricky gut" for years, it was a Godsend to find and meet with Sarah. My whole family has benefitted from going gluten and refined sugar free. It's been enlightening to learn how much the human gut has to do with our overall health and what fermented foods can do to boost our gut flora. I would highly recommend visiting with Sarah if you're someone who suffers from a "tricky gut" and would like to learn a natural way to heal yourself from the inside out.
