Experience a Purpose-Driven Winter at Vermejo
Vermejo, a Ted Turner Reserve, is introducing an exciting new winter program called The Season of Sabbatical, set to launch soon. Spanning over 558,000 acres of breathtaking wilderness in the Southern Rockies, this innovative offering invites participants to embrace winter as a time for relaxation, reflection, and recharging one's personal energy.
More than just a simple getaway, The Season of Sabbatical is meticulously designed as an immersive journey lasting three to six weeks. It's perfect for individuals like remote professionals, artists, and educators who may be facing transitions in their lives and are seeking clarity and inspiration in a tranquil setting.
Jade McBride, the President of Ted Turner Reserves, emphasizes the healing powers of nature: "Nature heals and reveals. We designed The Season of Sabbatical to provide people with the time and space they need to reconnect with their purpose in one of the most stunning landscapes in North America." This unique program allows guests to slow down and reflect on what is truly important in their lives.
Personalized Pathways to Renewal
As part of this one-of-a-kind experience, each sabbatical is tailored to the individual’s journey, offering one of three specially curated pathways:
The Creator's Path
This path is aimed at artists, writers, and thinkers in search of solitude and creative inspiration. It provides the perfect backdrop for those seeking to immerse themselves completely in their creative endeavors.
The Grounded Executive
This pathway is designed for remote leaders, guiding them to balance productivity with presence. It emphasizes the importance of being in the moment while effectively managing responsibilities.
The Restorative Reset
Ideal for people navigating personal transitions, this path offers support in healing and overcoming burnout. It's a safe space for individuals looking to rejuvenate and find balance in their lives.
During their stay, guests will enjoy accommodations in private cottages or cabins, complete with daily meals prepared by skilled chefs, as well as options for self-cooking. There’s a wide array of additional experiences available, such as yoga sessions, massages, guided nature walks, journaling workshops, and even conservation tours for those keen on learning more about their surroundings.
A Meaningful Sabbatical That Impacts Others
An incredible aspect of The Season of Sabbatical is its dedication to giving back. For every paid experience, Vermejo will sponsor a complimentary sabbatical for an educator or researcher. These individuals are crucial in advancing knowledge and understanding in various fields, and partner universities will assist in identifying those who would benefit from this opportunity.
