HeartCamp
Late Autumn HeartCamp Vibes
Presented by Blind Seed, HeartCamp is our SPECIALTY event - a seasonal, weekend retreat to a judgment-free space in the HUDSON VALLEY, WHERE we give ourselves permission to slow down, feel well, and connect to each other.
Think: Sprawling green fields. Summer fruit with local cheese. Winding roads. Farmers markets. Meditation hikes. Sunset forests. Trickling streams. Star gazing. Digestive yoga. Intention setting. Vegetarian family meals. Transcendent gong baths. Practicing silence. Cacao ceremonies. Celestial workshops. Morning tea. Turning pages. Curling smoke. Dialogue. Quiet time. Deep gratitude.
HeartCamp builds an educational and self-empowerment component into a restorative yoga retreat framework. Clean food and beverages included are sustainable, local and organic. Opportunities for play, rest and learning are customized for participants, who leave feeling recharged and relaxed- and overall, empowered to continue creating positive momentum in their life.
Our early-Summer, Fall/Winter, and Spring HeartCamps all sold out— and our upcoming HeartCamp retreats will be announced here, so check back often + follow us on IG + join our list serve!

“Blind Seed HeartCamp has the power to help you help and heal your whole self. From arrival to departure, everything was laid out intentionally for us- but without all the fuss and pretentiousness that typically comes in most wellness spaces. The estate grounds were unreal and I left the space feeling renewed and rejuvenated. Thanks Blind Seed!”
“Thank you so much for co-creating such a wonderful experience this weekend! The flavors, the energy, the wisdom, the spirit of it all was unforgettable.”
“Thank you thank you thank you for such a wonderful time! Tara, I have not done yoga in a few months so I was feeling a little stiff during digestive yoga but there was a touch you did while we were grounding ourselves that was out of this world - I instantly felt rooted and aligned. That was the highlight of my trip!
My boyfriend also sends his heartfelt appreciation, a dip into nature is exactly what he needed! ”
“Last night’s [cacao ceremony + euphoric dance ritual] was great. Sara Elise did a nice job with the meditation and getting people to open and loosen up prior to the dance. Thank you for the cacao, healing food, space and energy. My heart feels much healthier after the retreat and I appreciate Sara Elise and Tara for the experience.”
“The Blind Seed retreat is a peaceful departure from city life— one I can count on to help me decompress and breathe deeply. Their workshops are nurturing, meditative and love filled. Powered by Sara Elise’s heartfelt, top shelf cuisine, I left the retreat in a much more relaxed state of mind than I’d arrived in.”
“[HeartCamp] is an amazing experience where nature, energy + astrological, herbal, and healing touches collide, whilst being emerged in a sea of beautiful path walkers trailing similar alchemies. What an experience to gather together to explore yourself (and others, if you shall choose) ... just fast enough to deep breathe yet quick enough to blink your eyes and realize you’ve healed in so many ways thanks to Blind Seed.”
