Rejuvenate Your Body and Fortify Your Soul

The Body and Soul Challenge:

My name is Mike Mitchell and I created this program in the beautiful foothills of the Sierra Nevadas in Northern California to challenge you - and continue challenging myself.

I call each week an "adventure". People come to leave the real world behind and spend six blissful - and rigorous - days hiking, doing yoga and eating delicious organic food prepared by a master chef. After a hard day on the trails, guests enjoy relaxing massages and can soothe their aching muscles in the jacuzzi and sauna. If you're interested in weight loss women can lose on average eight pounds in a week and some men up to 15 pounds. If you want to just kick-start your fitness or add strength and stamina to what you already have, we'll tailor the adventure to fit your needs. 

Whatever your challenge, I'm here to encourage you to tackle it. As a lifelong soccer player, a former physical education teacher and over ten years experience running health and fitness retreats, I'm also a recovering alcoholic with over 22 years of sobriety. I can tell you from experience that something magical happens when you stop consuming alcohol and processed foods and nourish your body with organic proteins and plant-based gourmet food. Something transcendent occurs out on the trails with small groups undergoing the same challenges put forth by nature. Detox begins to take place at a deep level and the body, mind and spirit are rejuvenated.

That's what NORCAL Body & Soul Adventures is all about. Guests come to have fun, get in shape and leave the pressures of daily life behind. We'll give you the tools and challenge you to take the crux of the program home with you. If you can lead a clean, fit and healthy life for a week, there's potential you can do it for a lifetime. That's what makes us different from every program out there.

This is the sister program to the incomparable Body & Soul Adventure Brazil which won rave reviews by the New York Times, Yoga Journal, In Style and many others. Please join us for a potentially life changing experience!
