A WellBEing and Trauma Healing Retreat

What You Can Expect

Join me at Skamania Lodge, nestled in the heart of the Columbia River Gorge, for a 3-day immersive retreat designed to gently unravel survival patterns, release stored stress and trauma, and restore nervous system balance. Surrounded by ancient forests, mountain air, and sweeping river views, you’ll find the perfect environment for grounding, reflection, and renewal.

Throughout this experiential weekend, you’ll reconnect with the innate wisdom of your body and learn to unwind deeply held tension—cultivating safety within your nervous system so you can return to a state of calm, connection, and presence.

Whether you’re longing to feel more grounded, deepen your relationships, manage stress, or heal from the effects of trauma, this retreat offers a clear roadmap rooted in powerful body-based practices. You’ll learn to reconnect with your authentic self—shifting from stress and overwhelm into coherence, clarity, and authentic alignment with the core truth of who you are.

Come home to your body.

You Deserve a BE ME Break:

Cultivating WellBEing 

In our fast-paced world, it's easy to get stuck in the cycle of constant "doing"—checking off tasks, managing responsibilities, and pushing yourself to keep up with life’s demands. But this constant action can leave you feeling anxious, disconnected, and overwhelmed. True healing and wellbeing don’t come from endless doing but from finding balance—in the art of BEing.

Introducing BE ME Breaks, a powerful tool for cultivating resilience and wellBEing. BE ME stands for the Body, Emotional, Mental, and Essence realms of your BEing. These simple yet transformative practices are rooted in neuroscience, revealing that true healing doesn’t happen by just thinking your way through stress or trauma—your body is integral to how you experience and heal from life. By engaging in these somatic practices, you can restore balance, release stored tension, and cultivate a deep sense of calm.

Discover how the BE ME framework helps rewire your nervous system, promoting a grounded, relaxed presence that allows you to thrive. Whether you’re looking to heal from trauma, manage stress, or simply reconnect with yourself, BE ME Breaks offer the space to reset and find the peace and resilience your body is craving.

This is your invitation to take a well-deserved break, honor your body’s wisdom, and reclaim your wellBEing.

 

 

Rewrite Your Story

Embodying Authentic Alignment

Authentic Alignment is about living in harmony with your true self—where your actions, values, and goals are fully integrated, creating a foundation for genuine well-being and resilience. This session goes beyond surface-level change; it teaches you how to embody Authentic Alignment by bringing your whole self—gut, heart, and mind—into balance.

By tapping into the power of the body, you can rewire your nervous system, shifting from states of stress and survival into safety, presence, and connection. This practice enables you to release stored trauma, outdated belief systems, and embodied tension, allowing you to show up authentically in every area of your life.

In this transformative session, you’ll learn how to physically embody confidence, openness, and connection. Through body-based practices, you’ll cultivate nervous system resilience, communicate trust and support, and foster deeper, more authentic connections with yourself and others. Authentic alignment isn't just a concept—it's a way of BEing that empowers you to navigate life’s complexities with clarity, resilience, and compassion.

Step into your true potential, align with your authentic self, and thrive in every situation.

 

   

Break through Barriers in Your Body and your Healing Journey

The stress and overwhelm of daily life create both physical and emotional barriers that keep us from truly thriving. Breaking Barriers is designed to release chronic patterns of stress, tension, and trauma stored in the body, which can affect your ability to feel grounded, connected, and resilient.

This series introduces practices that help you break through physical and emotional holding patterns tied to past challenges, failures, or traumas. By realigning the body and restoring balance, strength, and nervous system support, you'll experience a profound shift in your overall wellbeing. The body language of Breaking Barriers opens up new pathways for healing, connection, and resilience in both your personal and professional life.

When you experience embodied safety, your nervous system becomes more flexible and adaptive. This allows you to show up in your life with confidence, authenticity, and greater emotional resilience.

Explore the 3 key areas of Breaking Barriers:

  • Heart and Hip Opening: Release stored tension, foster emotional openness, and restore a sense of ease and connection.
  • Balancing Your Back Body: Build physical and emotional support, alleviating tension and promoting a sense of grounding.
  • Core Connection: Strengthen your inner foundation, aligning your body and nervous system for greater resilience and wellbeing.

Discover how Breaking Barriers can support your healing and help you thrive—body, mind, and soul.

 Embodied Inquiry

Live Life With The Whole of Your BEing

True wellbeing and healing require more than just mental clarity—they demand a deep alignment of body, mind, and intuition.

Embodied Inquiry offers a powerful way to engage your whole BEing—integrating your gut, heart, and mind to foster deeper healing and clarity.

In this transformative session, you’ll learn how to tap into the innate wisdom of your body to address life’s biggest challenges. Through mindful movement, body postures, and expressive practices, you’ll unlock new insights into personal growth, stress management, and healing from trauma. Whether you’re seeking resilience, deeper self-connection, or clarity on how to move forward, Embodied Inquiry empowers you to leverage the full intelligence of your body to heal and thrive.

This approach helps you make authentic, aligned decisions that support both your personal wellBEing and your relationships—allowing you to move through life with more confidence, clarity, and connection to your authentic self.

 

 

Shake Off Embodied Stress and Trauma with TRE®

Are you carrying the weight of stress, tension, or trauma in your body? The pressures of life can take a toll, leading to chronic tension, anxiety, and even burnout. In this powerful session, you’ll experience the transformative effects of Tension & Trauma Releasing Exercises (TRE®), a proven method designed to release deeply embedded stress and restore balance to your nervous system.

TRE® harnesses your body’s natural tremor mechanism to release tension stored in your muscles and nervous system, promoting relaxation, clarity, and greater resilience. For anyone seeking nervous system healing, this practice offers a gentle yet profound way to shake off the stress and emotional strain that builds up over time, helping you reclaim your sense of calm and wellbeing.

Why TRE®?
TRE® helps rewire your nervous system by activating neurogenic tremors, a process that supports the release of stored trauma. Similar to the benefits associated with psychedelics like ayahuasca, psilocybin, and MDMA, TRE® can facilitate neuroplasticity and emotional regulation—without the need for external substances. It works with your body’s innate ability to heal, promoting deep nervous system regulation and a sense of inner peace.

Important Note:
Participation in the full BE ME series is essential before engaging in TRE® to ensure safety, self-resourcing skills, and the ability to process the emotional release effectively. Those who incorporate TRE® into their routine often report heightened focus, emotional regulation, and a deeper connection to their authentic selves.

Megan has been the most insightful, perceptive, gracious and effective coach/healer/therapist I have worked with. She has helped me transform my body/mind relationship, calm my nerves through development of new skill sets, and helped me untangle the places in my life where I have felt stuck. She has all the tools to help one become stronger, at peace, and the best, most clear-headed version of themself. For me, the process with her has eclipsed anything that talk therapy and personal coaching could ever achieve. Megan is a gift to the world.

Tess D.

 As a client who came to Megan struggling with both chronic pain and PTSD, I can attest that she has every capacity to support and promote healing for her clients. Megan skillfully weaves listening, teaching, hands-on work, guidance and feedback to empower clients to integrate new techniques to achieve their best health, from physical to psychological to spiritual. She is both a kind and a fierce advocate for her clients' wellbeing, and I cannot recommend working with her strongly enough. You will be glad you did.

I recommend working with Megan because personally, my life has gotten a whole lot easier now that I've given myself the attention and tools to work with it. The things I thought were problems have since resolved themselves or fallen into place and the feelings of stress and anxiety I've felt in recent years feels like it has been replaced with trust and gratitude in a way that no other work I've done on myself has helped me achieve. There's no greater gift than remembering who we truly are, honoring the bodies that got us here, reclaiming our stories and our power, and learning the tools to support us to live fulfilling lives. Thank you for being my guide Megan!
