Sunday to Restore. Monday to Move. Tuesday to Rise.
Your 3-Day Self-Care Escape at Greek Peak
Let’s be real, how often do you take time just for yourself? Not squeezing in a 10-minute meditation between errands or grabbing a quick bath before bed. We’re talking about intentional, soul-deep, full-body care. The kind that grounds you. Moves you. Lifts you.
This September, Greek Peak Mountain Resort invites you to do exactly that.
We’ve crafted a 3-day self-care escape around a powerful rhythm:
Sunday to Restore. Monday to Move. Tuesday to Rise.
At the center of it all? The transformational She Rises Women’s Summit on Tuesday, September 23. But this journey starts before the applause. This journey starts with you.
Sunday: Restore
Rest is not a reward — it’s your right.
You arrive at Greek Peak and immediately feel the weight slipping off your shoulders, your breath getting deeper, your mind beginning to quiet.
Your first stop is Waterfalls Spa, where everything, from the lighting to the scent in the air, tells your nervous system, “You’re safe now.”
You begin with a sugar scrub, choosing from blends like coconut or cranberry-pomegranate. Each movement polishes your skin and your spirit. Then, a signature massage unwinds your knots and restores your posture. A private soaking tub wraps the experience in warmth and stillness, and if you opt for a customized facial, it’s like pressing a reset button on your face and your mood.
You don’t just feel better. You feel you again.
Monday: Move
Movement isn’t a workout — it’s a way back to yourself.
With your body rested and your mind a little quieter, today is about gentle motion and deep presence. Greek Peak sits at the edge of the Finger Lakes Trail System, a vast network of forested footpaths that seem tailor-made for one of life’s most underrated healing practices: the mindful walk.
You step onto the trail with no agenda, just awareness. You move slowly, taking in the way the morning light dances through the leaves. You hear birds over the rustle of breeze-touched branches. You smell pine, damp earth, wildflowers. With each step, you feel the texture of the ground beneath your feet, the way your breath falls into rhythm with your pace.
This isn’t about fitness goals or checking boxes. It’s about coming home to yourself in the simplest way possible: one step, one breath, one moment at a time.
Try This: A Mindful Walk
As you begin your walk, pause for a moment and take one deep breath. Let it out slowly.
Then, with each step:
- Notice 5 things you can see. (The way light hits a leaf. A distant hill. The pattern of your shadow.)
- Notice 4 things you can hear. (Birds, wind, crunch of gravel, your own breath.)
- Notice 3 things you can feel. (The sun on your skin. The swing of your arms. Your feet against the trail.)
- Notice 2 things you can smell. (Pine, wildflowers, fresh air.)
- Notice 1 thing you’re grateful for. (Right here, right now.)
Then keep walking – slowly, mindfully, fully present. You’ll be amazed at how different the world feels when you really show up for it.
Tuesday: Rise
Because when women gather, we don’t just rise — we lift each other.
You wake with anticipation. The She Rises Women’s Self-Care & Empowerment Summit awaits, and it’s more than a conference. It’s a calling.
You step into a space filled with wisdom, laughter, and the quiet power of women choosing themselves. The day is a full spectrum of self-care:
- Powerful keynote speakers ignite your inner fire.
- The vendor village is packed with feel-good finds and woman-owned wellness goods.
- Movement and mindfulness sessions reconnect you to your body.
- Workshops and circles build connection and clarity.
By the time the sun sets, you are changed. Not by someone else’s words, but by your own decision to show up.
Why You Should Try It
Because you’ve been on autopilot long enough. Because your to-do list doesn’t define you. Because your soul deserves a seat at the table. This 3-day rhythm (Restore. Move. Rise.) is more than a weekend itinerary. It’s a blueprint for balance you can return to anytime.
Whether you’re joining us for the She Rises Summit or building your own retreat on your schedule, Greek Peak offers everything you need to make space for yourself. A slow spa day. A quiet trail. A few deep breaths in the mountain air.
You don’t need a calendar invite to choose calm.
You don’t need a summit to rise.
You just need a few days, and a yes to yourself.
Final Thoughts
So here’s the mantra:
Restore. Move. Rise.
A rhythm you can return to, a reset you can repeat.
Greek Peak isn’t just a place, it’s a practice. A reminder that your well-being is worth the time. Worth the effort. Worth the trip.
When life feels like too much, just remember… someone out there is yelling at their GPS, and they’re still going in the right direction.
