At RISE, the intention is simple: to give you space to breathe, reset, and reconnect with yourself. You will have time to rest, reflect, and return to your work with a clearer mind and a steadier spirit.
The days move slowly and intentionally with therapeutic workshops, nervous system resets, long soaks in Idaho’s natural hot springs, and meals that are organic and thoughtfully prepared to support balance and nourishment. There is space for quiet moments, meaningful conversations, and practices that honor whatever path brings you here.
By the time you head home, the hope is that you feel grounded, supported, and more like yourself again. You will carry a renewed sense of purpose into the people and communities you serve.
