“Every teacher should attend a wellness retreat! It is such a calm space that allows you to relax by practicing a mindful meditation in a safe environment. Maria does a wonderful job connecting the meditation to a meaningful exercise that allows you to think beyond the task presented. It was also really awesome to have a chance to talk to educators from other parts of the world. Highly recommend!”
