Off-Grid & In-Bloom: A Women’s wellness Retreat AT Stanly Ranch
Sunday April 26th, 2026, Napa, CALIFORNIA
Tickets starting at $385 per person
If you’ve been craving a day to feel grounded, inspired, and creatively alive again — consider this your invitation to step away from the noise and return to yourself.
Off-Grid & In Bloom is a thoughtfully curated women’s wellness experience designed to reconnect you with creativity, nature, and embodied wellbeing through joyful movement, hands-on expression, and meaningful connection. Together, we rediscover the richness of in-person experience alongside like-minded women — remembering that true wellness is found in doing less, slowing down, and noticing the beauty already around us.
Throughout the day, you’ll experience wildflower foraging and bouquet arranging, energizing yoga and Pilates fusion, a guided produce garden experience, creative free-hand art exploration, nourishing farm-to-table cuisine, fresh juices, and meditative walks with reflective journaling — all thoughtfully woven into the natural rhythm of the ranch. This is tactile, sensory, joy-filled wellness designed to leave you grounded, creatively awakened, and truly in bloom for the season ahead.
The experience is curated and led by Maria Rasmussen, National Board-Certified Health & Wellness Coach and founder of WellAway Retreats, alongside E-RYT yoga instructor Andrea Bogart and multidisciplinary artist and creative director Rachel Richardson.

ABOUT WELLAWAY RETREATS
WellAway Retreats was founded in 2022 by California natives and sisters-in-law Carly Baum and Maria Baum, brought together by a shared love of travel, motherhood, and intentional living.
After becoming mothers, both Carly and Maria made the conscious decision to step away from their corporate careers in favor of work that felt more meaningful and deeply aligned with their values. What emerged was a shared vision: to create thoughtfully designed spaces where women can slow down, reconnect with themselves, and return home feeling restored—physically, mentally, and emotionally.
Maria is a National Board Certified Health and Wellness Coach (NBHWC) and a graduate of the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, offering a grounded, holistic approach to health that emphasizes sustainable habits and mindful living. Carly is a birth and postpartum doula, bringing a nurturing presence and deep understanding of women’s transitions, care, and community.
Over the past three years, WellAway has hosted dozens of women’s wellness retreats throughout the Bay Area, and is now expanding internationally. Guests leave feeling supported, inspired, and equipped with practical tools they can integrate into everyday life—along with meaningful connections that extend well beyond the retreat itself.
At its core, WellAway is about creating space: space to rest, space to breathe, and space to come back to what truly supports your wellbeing.
