Family Mindfulness Expedition -Lava Hot Springs, Idaho

Nate and I have designed the perfect event with you in mind–this event will be taking place in the city of Hot Lava Springs, Idaho, where we’ll be nestled quietly and snugly along the Portneuf River. Lava Hot Springs offers your family a chance to immerse in healing waters and embrace wellness as a way of life. In Lava Hot Springs, there’s no pressure to do more than soak, sleep, eat, and enjoy nature all around you. This is the perfect location to host a restorative family retreat centered around; reconnecting with your family through team-building activities, learning tools & strategies for sustainable RV travel at our workshop-style discussion, and connecting with your community on a guided hike, and around a few campfires.

This will be a small intimate event crafted around hosting just 6 families. We’ll be designing an event centered around; the duration of travel for attending families, the ages of children, and the current needs of families. We’ll be eating some great food, doing some hiking, chatting, and soaking in the healing hot springs! I can tell you that!

You’ll be leaving with…

+A renewed sense of purpose for your travels

+A custom travel family manifesto

+Support from your community
