It all started in the summer of 2016. We just dabbled with the idea of creating an escape for people to come and spend some quality 'me time', in a studio loft in Downtown Saint Louis and the response was astonishing. We've been fully booked since day 1 (except during the pandemic of course)!

From all the feedback, we discovered that many guests were coming to town in large groups (wedding parties, reunions etc) and were put off by staying in cramped hotel rooms with high nightly rates. Further, they wanted a place where they could discover or rediscover one another, whether the group was just 2 people or 28 people! 

Since the pandemic, we've been inundated with requests for 'flex office' space, especially for those workforce groups who are 'working from home', but just need an inexpensive, fun and creative space to meet up once a week. 
​Nostalgically remembering the golden years, camping and/or glamping with schoolfriends, Dr. Sonny Saggar came up with large spaces for groups, but without the spartan design of a camp. Think penthouse suite meets army barracks meets creative office meeting room. The demand has been tremendous and the reviews astounding.

​These themed spaces are an exciting joint venture with 24/7 Healthcare, which provides accessible and affordable urgent care and telemedicine to ALL people (no matter what the health insurance coverage or lack thereof), 24 hours a day, every day. Help us help those who need help the most. 
The shared intention of sitting together in mindfulness creates a sacred space that’s amazingly powerful. If you are looking for support and connection, try one of our mindfulness sitting groups. Basically, a group of between 2 and 20 people will come to our retreat and practice meditation. Quietly. Calmly. Together. A cross between team-building and mindfulness, we prefer to call it Team Bonding. 

Our corporate clients are discovering that the experiment of putting a bunch of people together in the same space for 48 hours has measurable and positive effects on productivity, harmony and efficiency. 

The Team can select a fun and captivating theme, based on popular culture, for their bonding experience: Jedi Temple, Hogwarts, Baseball, Downton Abbey, Sherlock Holmes and so many more. The goal is not to distract each team member from their mindfulness, but rather to make it an even more pleasant experience. Each team member can thereby meditate or not, depending on how they feel. Learn more about this initiative at Downtown Health & Wellness.
