Travel slower. Return restored.

Welcome to Mindful Escapades. I am Rosie Evie, and this site is for busy Americans who love to travel but come home needing a vacation from their vacation. Here you will find slow journeys, honest guidance on wellness retreats, and unplugged escapes — every one researched and written to help you take trips that actually restore you, with real costs in US dollars so you can plan with confidence.

Start here

Mindful Escapades covers five topics. Choose the one that fits the trip you are dreaming of:

• Wellness retreats: honest, detailed guides to retreats across the United States — what is included, what a day looks like, and what it really costs.
• Slow travel: itineraries built around doing less and savoring more — staying longer in one place and moving at a human pace.
• Digital detox & nature escapes: cabins, parks, and wild places where you can put the phone away and let your mind quiet down.
• Solo mindful travel: practical guidance for traveling alone with intention — safe, reflective, and deeply rewarding.
• Mindful travel skills: the habits and tools that make any trip calmer — packing light, journaling, and traveling gently.

There is much more to come. Start with the story behind this site: learn more about Mindful Escapades.
