Join Stephanie Ermel for a morning of soul food (and real food!),
inspired by the healthiest people in the world: Okinawans. Our community of women will be utilizing multiple healing modalities such as: nature, rest, connection, journaling, nourishing food, and movement for your body, mind, + spirit.
When and where
Saturday, October 2nd from 9am-12pm at La Foret, in beautiful Black Forest of Colorado Springs.
Lunch will be an AUTHENTIC Okinawan meal, packed with superfoods and cooked by the LEGEND, Steph’s mom.
*The items in this image will be plated bento style (boxed lunch).
What to expect
Eat like an Okinawan: hara-hachi-bu, eat things that grow, simple cooking tips, eating mindfully.
Rest like an Okinawan: screentime regulation, afternoon downtime, simplify your schedule.
Move like an Okinawan: find a hobby that keeps you active, stay child-like, don’t be afraid to sweat.
Express your #ikigai: cultivate a rich inner world that will serve as the foundation for your health in every aspect: mental, spiritual, physical. Now more than ever, we have to expand our “self-care bag of tricks” that will allow us to weather life’s inevitable ups and downs.
Laugh like an Okinawan: stress reduction techniques, the importance of a community, and why you must prioritize humor and lightheartedness.
Shinrinyoku like an Okinawan: ground to connect with the earth, spend time in the sun, or connect with an earth element in any way possible.

Your host
Haisai! (Hello in Okinawan)
I’m Stephanie, founder of ERMELS Adventures, and a married mother of four. I’m originally from Okinawa, Japan, which boasts the longest-living and healthiest people in the world (Okinawan women in particular). I live and teach the Okinawan lifestyle of health, stress reduction, and longevity: simple food, simple movement, simple pleasures.
I teach both online and in-person classes, offer support via my online monthly membership groups, and I also privately coach 1-1 clients.
Testimonials
I need more female friendships in my life. Women are powerful. It was satisfying to tune into the powerful feminine energy of all of us together.
– Madeleine, Colorado
I so enjoyed being outside and enjoying nature while being active holistically. Even after a long day finding time to energize yourself is so important and I think this class does that very well.
– Grace, Colorado
Find more time expressing my self and what makes me happy. Steph did a great job calling out our hustle and grind culture. It’s about time we got back to basics and channel our inner child.
– Amber, Colorado
My main takeaway from Steph’s class was that I need to take care of myself first and add more movement to my life.
– Susie, Colorado
