Welcome to Modern Sage.
Sage: a wise elder; Modern Sage: Vibrant and wise, and grounded in contemporary life, culture, and challenges.
Our mission is to empower women over 55 to embrace strength, joy, and freedom through surf retreats. We create safe, inspiring spaces where the ocean becomes a teacher, self-discovery flows naturally, and every wave is an invitation to reconnect with your body, nurture your spirit, live boldly at any age, and reconnect with your deepest self in the Afternoon of Life.
Additionally, we offer a course, for all adults, where we will learn to connect mind-body-soul and make the connection about chronic pain and emotional eating. These will take place over a ten week period each fall and each spring.
Next Retreat:

Mind/Body Ten-Week Course
As Dr. Gabor Maté says, “It’s not what’s wrong with you, it’s what happened to you.”
Journaling for expression, creativity and even grief is a powerful tool to reveal part of ourselves we have not been seeing. Expressive journaling is not to be kept but to vent as a practice to reduce the reservoir of feelings from childhood, from current stressors, and even as a byproduct of our personalities.
Relying on the work of John Sarno, Nicole Sachs, and Lisa Schlosberg, this course will highlight the connection between chronic pain, emotional eating and body image issues.These take place on location in Ojai, California and are offered for all adults.
Dates, location, and cost to be announced.
