When I was young, there was this one unforgettable experience that I had at girl scout camp. It was my only time attending, and it left a lasting memory in my mind. My older sister was also at the same camp, but she was in a different troop, and my other sister was a chaperone for her group. It was a pretty exciting prospect to be at camp with them, but little did I know that it would turn out to be quite an emotional rollercoaster.
As soon as we arrived at the campsite, something inside me just flipped. I felt overwhelmed by the new surroundings and the idea of being away from home. Tears started to well up, and I couldn't control my emotions. I ended up freaking out and crying, pleading with the camp organizers to let me stay with my sister's troop. Miraculously, they agreed, and I got to stay with them. From that point on, all I remember about that camp was being upset and crying until I found my comfort zone with my sisters.
Looking back, it's both amusing and heartwarming to think about that moment, and I wonder what other adventures I might have had at camp if I hadn't been so fixated on sticking with my siblings. I honestly do not remember anything else about that weekend!
Now, fast forward to the present day, I'm excited to embark on a brand new adventure as a creator and co-host of a summer camp for adult women. This time, it's not a "sleep away camp," but it promises to be incredible. (I am sure I won’t cry.) Our camp is all about fun, adventure, and connecting with nature while fostering a sense of community among like-minded women.
As we gather at CAMP, we will have a farm-fresh, gluten-free, and vegan lunch - a delightful fusion of healthy and delicious. But it's not just about nourishing our bodies; it's about nourishing our souls too. The camp's essence lies in serving ourselves at the deepest levels, coming together and belonging simply because we show up.
There will be plenty of activities to keep us engaged and connected throughout our time at CAMP. We'll take serene walks through the farm, form circles where we can share stories, meditate, and connect on a profound level. There'll be moments of silence for introspection, laughter to lighten the spirit, and journaling to capture the essence of our experiences.
Movement will be an integral part of our time at CAMP, be it dancing, mindful walking, or practicing yoga. But above all, we're here to have fun and indulge in the sense of wonder.
As I prepare for this unique adventure, I can't help but feel like I'm getting a second chance to relive the magic of camp without the tears and worries of my younger self. This time, it's all about embracing the outdoors, forming new bonds with friends, and reconnecting with the inner child in a joyful and uplifting way.
So, here's to the upcoming CAMP, where you will rediscover the joy of play, create lasting memories, and bask in the enchanting beauty of nature, all while celebrating the magic that lies within each of us. It's going to be a summer to remember, and I can't wait to see what new stories unfold in this chapter of our lives.

What are your CAMP stories? Are you ready to create new ones and experience the joy of feeling young at heart? Embrace your inner child and join us at CAMP for a summer experience filled with adventure, connection, and play. Picture yourself surrounded by the beauty of nature, with the breeze gently caressing your face and birdsong serenading your soul. This is an invitation to tap into your vitality, to be part of a community that values meaningful connections and embraces the magic of being present in the moment. Come and make memories, laugh, dance, and savor the mystery gifts that await you. Join us at CAMP, where the stories you'll create will be cherished for a lifetime. Let's make this summer unforgettable together!
Peace. Love and Stories,
Theresa

Come join us THIS Saturday! The Radiant Self!

Hey there, fellow seekers of bliss and transformation! Have you ever experienced the power of spontaneous singing? 🎤✨ With Anecdotal Anatomy in Action, you never know what spontaneous activity will pop up. It's incredible how the vibrations from our voices can stimulate the vagus nerve, triggering the "rest and digest" response. And let's be honest, who couldn't use a bit of rest and restoration in their lives?
At Anecdotal Anatomy in Action, we believe in healing practices that go beyond the ordinary. That's why we invite you to join us for Radiant Self, a mini-retreat that delves deep into the power of sound, movement, and connection.
Did you know that the throat chakra is closely tied to our ability to communicate our ideas, thoughts, and emotions? By singing or humming gently, we can open this energy center, allowing our voices to flow freely and authentically.
But the benefits of singing go beyond just our vocal cords. Singing has been proven to lower cortisol levels, relieve stress and tension, boost confidence and self-esteem, and even help us live in the present moment, fully immersed in the music.
When we sing together, something magical happens. Our heartbeats synchronize, creating a harmonious connection among the participants. Plus, singing is like a workout for our upper body, exercising major muscle groups and releasing any built-up tension.
But that's not all! Singing has also been shown to alleviate pain symptoms and leave us with a profound sense of bliss. It taps into our natural intuition and affects our entire being—body, energy, thoughts, and emotions.
✨ Illuminate the Koshas, Transform Within ✨
Radiant Self is not just any retreat. It's an opportunity to laugh, sing, practice, and connect with a community of like-hearted seekers who thrive in nurturing relationships. Together, we'll travel through the layers of our human existence, exploring different energy centers and discovering the depth of our being.
Through somatic movement, embodied study, yoga, breathwork, storytelling, meditation, and maybe a spontaneous song we'll unlock the gateways to inner transformation. It's a journey that will leave you feeling rejuvenated, inspired, and deeply connected.
🌈 Join the Radiant Self Community Today 🌈
Don't miss out on this extraordinary experience! Reserve your spot at Radiant Self: Illuminate the Koshas and embark on a journey of self-discovery and soulful connection.

In my practice of slowing down, I rediscovered the joy of coloring, an art once cherished. Inspired by my dear friend Mimi's words, "the only thing to think about is what color to choose next," I embarked on a journey within the pages of my coloring book. Each image held a profound significance, beckoning me to immerse myself in its enchanting beauty. As I delicately filled the lines, I felt a profound connection with the essence of these magical beings, witnessing their harmonious integration with the natural and mystical realms. Through the colors, I found myself revisiting the seasons and archetypes of my own life, tracing the patterns of my journey. My senses became sharpened, alive with the rhythm and rhymes of my existence, while the melodies of nature's songs gently caressed my heart and soul, dissolving all tensions that once weighed me down. In this sacred space, I savored each moment, allowing it to drift away like a whisper carried by the wind.

Today's practice of slowing down invites me to become a curious detective in nature's mystery. As I make my way through the brush, I uncover those hidden gems of natural breaks that reveal the expansive view of the glistening lake beyond. I choose to pause, allowing myself to fully soak in the glory of this magical scene. Finding a cozy spot, I take a moment to breathe in the tranquility and fixate my gaze on the breathtaking view before me. It's incredible how a single point of focus can open up an entire world of beauty. With my imagination in tow, I embrace this whimsical moment of serenity and awe, savoring the pure delight it brings to my soul.
