ABOUT
YOGA
🧘🏻♀️We begin our journey with a deeply healing blend of mindful activities. We start in the studio, with a vinyasa yoga practice. In this dynamic session, you'll flow through a series of poses, linking each one gracefully as you synchronize your breath. Strengthen and stretch your body while cultivating mindfulness and inner tranquility. Suitable for all levels, this class offers a balanced blend of flexibility, strength, and relaxation, leaving you feeling invigorated and centered. The session will open and awaken you to accept the offerings ahead.
REIKI
✨Experience the ancient art of Reiki as our practitioner guides universal life energy through your body to promote healing & calibration within your energetic centers. Along with chakra balancing, guided meditation, aromatherapy, sound bowls, and hands-on adjustments, you receive a full sensory journey that realigns your entire system.
HIKING
⛰️Explore Red Rocks with a mindful walking meditation on the trading post trail, with a short hike through town, or get a signature shuttle ride on the Cliff House Magic School Bus to the trailhead. Your guide will provide sunscreen & carry your shoes while you ground into the healing red clay dirt of Colorado Earth, incorporating affirmations, mantras and barefoot grounding techniques.
FOOD
🥗Upon returning to the lodge, you’ll get a chance to integrate and further ground into your body while indulging with vibrant gourmet grazing boards, featuring highly vibrational organic fruits, vegetables, dips, spreads, cheeses, and more. Each culinary creation will be fully accommodating to all dietary needs. Fuse your meditation practice with your meal during a mindful eating exercise, and be fully present as you find space to sit, eat, and reflect.
DRINK
🍹Visit our juice and elixir bar, offering a delightful assortment of cold-pressed juices, medicinal mocktails, herbal elixirs, and more. Concoct the perfect blend of mood-enhancing plant and flower essences, CBD, and apoptogenic herbs at the self-serving tincture station.
☕️Opt for a cup of Coffee, Tea, or Ceremonial Grade Cacao! Warm your body and open your heart! Cacao is a specially prepared and consumed form of cacao that goes beyond its traditional use in chocolate production. It's often used in spiritual and healing ceremonies, originating from ancient Mesoamerican cultures. It is believed to have heart-opening and consciousness-enhancing properties. It is processed minimally, retaining more of its natural compounds, and is often enjoyed as a warm, bitter beverage during rituals & meditations. We like to prepare with organic vegan cream, lightly spiced and naturally sweetened with maple, agave, or monk fruit.
JOURNAL / CONNECT
🌟With complete VIP access to the in house art gallery, gift-shop, great room, and private living quarters, relax and feel at home in the room or patio of your choice. Enjoy journaling, eating, drinking, and sharing your experiences with new friends. The accommodations truly foster a communal atmosphere, perfect for both connecting and reflecting.
BREATHWORK / HOT TUB
🛁For the final healing session we introduce the (hot/cold therapy) “Viking Bath” or “Nordic Cycle.” Gather in the side yard for a preliminary breathwork exercise before alternating between our hot tub & our antique ice tubs. The concept of cold or heat exposure is the principle of hormesis. This means exposing yourself to deliberately small amounts of stress makes your body more resilient. The combination of hot tubs and ice baths show activation of brown and beige fat cells to burn calories. The Nordic cycle also increases your heart rate and constricts your blood vessels, that drain lactic acid to aid in recovery. The body then decreases cortisol and releases norepinephrine, adrenalin and endorphins which improves your mood and makes you feel awake and rejuvenated.
ICE BATH
❄️Ice bath therapy has an extensive list of benefits. Not only does it reduce swelling and inflammation, it boosts your metabolism and promotes good sleep. It is incredibly helpful for the central nervous system, pain management, and vagus nerve stimulation. The vagus nerves are the main part of the parasympathetic nervous system, which controls your “rest-and-digest” and “flight, flight, fawn” conditions.
☀️Take your time sealing the practices and continue to graze, visit, and bask in the therapeutic warmth of the bubbling waters, as the immersion draws to a close. Reflect and celebrate the healing shared with community .
LODGING / AD-ONS
🎁For those looking for an extended experience, inquire about our overnight amenities in one of our private hot tub cottages. Additionally, we offer IV hydration therapy, massage therapy, cupping, tarot/oracle readings, and more, allowing you to customize and enhance your retreat.
💫Join us every Saturday with Flowing Brooks Wellness for an extraordinary healing journey at the Cliff House Lodge in Morrison, Colorado. Inquire now for details and secure your spot for a memorable and transformative experience.

ABOUT YOUR HOST
Brooks Witherspoon, 500 RYT, Reiki II, Authentic Relating Certified, Chef
“In addition to my own practice, I offer various group classes in the Denver Metro Area. I typically guide my students through Viniyoga Sequences, which is yoga for the individual. I combine multiple techniques into a harmonic flow with a special twist; along with Baptiste Style Power Yoga. No two practices are ever the same!”
---
My Yogic Lineage comes from T. Krishnamacharya, the essential yogic grandfather of modern yoga. He believed that yoga should be adapted to the individual, not the individual to yoga.
He used this principle in teaching the leading yogis of the 20th Century who brought the practice to the West. One of these students, Pattabhi Jois, prescribed Ashtanga Vinyassa Yoga. This is a fast paced flowing series of sequenced asanas, linked with breath and sun salutations. His other student BKS Iyenger, used his training to cultivate Iyenger yoga to cure his own disease, through asana and pranayama. His methods pay special attention to skeletal and muscular alignment, in which poses are held for much longer, allowing for adjustments; along with the use of props for injuries and restorative practice. As Krishnamacharya aged, he taught his son, TKV Disikachar, Viniyoga, or yoga for the individual, focusing on the traditional teachings, the 8 limbs, and the incorporation of ritual, chanting, and more; as it best resonates to the practitioner.
I was taught all of these methods, along with additional teachings of Baron Baptiste, who studied directly under Disikachar and Iyengar, at a very young age. Along with the initial 400 hours of training, I received 300 hours of advanced ashtanga & vinyasa flow level two, while studying overseas.
Baptiste incorporates the traditional teachings of Ashtanga Vinyassa, Viniyoga, Meditation and Self Inquiry. Through a fast paced, potent, and structured signature series of movements that adhere to one blue print; Journey Into Power. Power Yoga is the ultimate wake up call. This practice has the power to change your life.
“Sometimes people ask me why my power yoga classes are so challenging. I’ve learned that intense physical challenge allows students to see in the moment how much more effective relaxing is than struggling. It’s about bypassing your resistance. When you are at your most tired, you don’t have the energy to resist. You relax, you stop forcing, essentially because there is no other choice, and then suddenly you discover that the source of grace was there waiting for you all along.” - Baron Baptiste
My teacher, Alexandria Jayne Pulpher, studied directly under Baron Baptiste and Annie Carpenter; before founding Yoga Deza Institute in Fayetteville, Arkansas.
I completed my 200 hour Solar Vinyasa YTT and 200 hour Baptiste Power YTT from Yoga Deza Institute. My 300 hour YTT was recieved at Bali Yoga Ashram. I am accredited E-RYT & 500 hour YTT by Yoga Alliance. I incorporate intention setting, energy healing, guided meditation, aromatherapy, intuitive oracle readings, and much more into yoga practice. In daily life I try to adhere to all aspects of the 8 Limbs of Yoga. I continue to learn more, advance, falter, and keep trying. This practice has been here all along. Once I found it, my body, mind and soul activated an effortless flow through the river of life. It is my duty to share this gift of love with as many beings I can.
"The rhythm of the body, the melody of the mind, and the harmony of the soul creates the symphony of life."
-BKS Iyengar
“The journey of yoga has showered my life with harmonious magic. This practice has catalyzed health, abundance, growth, stability and creativity; among purpose and truth on my spiritual journey. It has been a profound transformative blessing to find my niche in the Yoga Community. As a student and teacher of this sacred art, I have found strengths in myself and others that I wasn't even aware of. Seeing capability and magnificent results within the body, conjunct spirit and mind; is what inspires me to continue growth and assist others in their journey of self discovery.
