Immerse in nature.
Emerge empowered.
Welcome to Taos.
An epic destination along the Rio Grande Gorge.
Inspiring environments fuel innovative thinking. Combine this with nature and you’ll experience a calmer body and mind, which allows for new and constructive neural pathways to develop. When intentional about this process, you can begin to experience the ability to deconstruct barriers and constraints while exploring new possibilities. This innovative process will provide you the tools to pause, reflect, and reframe, supporting your path in designing solutions best suited for your life. Permission to Exhale combines individual self-discovery through immersion in nature and personal reflection with curated experiential workshops with a small community of peers. Utilizing human-centered design principles—most notably, empathy, insights, and discovery— you will engage in facilitated workshops to explore unconventional solutions while embracing self care.
