A modern retreat can cover anything from a weekend of not using your mobile phone (digital detox) to a few days of relaxation and healthy living in a bucolic countryside setting (wellness or mindfulness retreats). You can also go on a retreat to kickstart a new fitness regime, relieve stress, practice meditation and spiritual exercises, enjoy outdoor activities or cookery classes, tap into your creativity, improve sleep or self-esteem, have life-coaching - and, yes, lose weight if you must, although this is more often a side-effect to healthier living. Or, you can go on a retreat to do nothing at all. The word retreat means ‘draw back,’ after all. A variety of retreat options are offered; in the category of camping and recreation, we discuss Woodwind Park, Bent’s Camp, Big Rock Creek, and Camp Anokijig, which focuses on children. In the Spa/Resort category, we note several in the Lake Geneva and Sheboygan areas, including Grand Geneva, Lakelawn, and the Abbey Resort in Lake Geneva along with Sundara and Blue Harbor in Sheboygan plus the American Club's Kohler Waters Spa in nearby Kohler. We also cover The Edgewater Hotel & Spa near near the Capitol in Madison. For Artist Retreats, we cover the Woodland Ridge Retreat Center, Prairie Hill retreat, Durward's Glen (an artist’s cottage) and Bethel Horizons with its Adamah Art Studio. For Spiritual retreats, we note the Christine Center, The Wilderness, the Redemptorist Retreat Center in Oconomowoc, and Holy Wisdom Monastery in Middleton. Then we do a deeper dive with guest Anne Krogstad, who recently went to the Wild Rice Retreat near Bayfield.If you’ve been considering a retreat or specialized getaway, this episode could provide the guidance and inspiration to help you find a place that can match what you may want – or need! Inside SponsorsJefferson County: https://bit.ly/3gt0NauGroup Health Trust:  https://bit.ly/3JMizCXMarshfield Clinic; All of Us Research Program; https://bit.ly/3Wj6pYj
