Fall Retreat to Vermont:
Strength, Ease & Pause

with Samantha Arak & Brittney Burgess

Thursday-Sunday
November 5-8, 2026

Good Commons’ historic charm and Vermont’s natural beauty serve as the ideal setting for reflection, setting intentions, and connecting with others.

Join Samantha & Brittney for a thoughtfully curated retreat that blends invigorating morning yoga practices, with reflective downtime and opportunities to nourish your creativity and indulge in some quiet throughout the day.

Evenings will consist of soothing candlelit classes, conversation with friends new and old, and starlit moments outside.

This weekend is your chance to step away from the everyday, reconnect with yourself, and find new energy and balance. All meals are chef prepared and you don’t have to make your bed all weekend if you don’t want to. 

Nestled in Plymouth, Vermont between Killington and Okemo ski resorts, the location of this historic building provides you with the flexibility to enjoy numerous indoor and outdoor activities.

Open to all levels, you’ll leave feeling grounded, refreshed, and ready to embrace your next chapter.
