Monhegan Wellness

I participated in Monhegan Wellness' Yoga and Art retreat on Monhegan with Tara and it was a definite highlight of my 2014! The warm hospitality, fabulous meals, gentle yoga, artistic inspirations, and island insider tips, made for a perfectly splendid retreat. I would not hesitate booking a class or adventure with Tara/Monhegan Wellness again and have recommended it to others too.

When I go to Monhegan Island, part of my relaxing vacation is getting Thai massages and taking restorative yoga with Tara. I broke my arm last March at work, and it was still healing when I went to Monhegan. The Thai massages seemed to have relieved my inflammation and increased my circulation. Tara is a master at this! It also helped increase my flexibility and I was going on long hikes without pains in my legs. The restorative yoga was also wonderful- so relaxing. I also had one of the foot soaks and massage. It was so peaceful sitting and soaking on the Wellness deck listening to the bird sounds and watching birds in the meadow . Tara is so welcoming and knowledgable. I can't wait to go back!

The Monhegan Wellness retreat led by Tara Hire was my first experience of Monhegan Island. It was absolutely magical! I spent five days this May together with a group pf creative, positive and engaging women - painting, doing yoga, walking and talking. The energy in the group was incredibly positive and supportive. The surroundings were breathtaking and the paths on the island are various and beautiful. It was indeed an inspiring week in a stunning setting! Tara's yoga classes were very spiritual and rekindled my past love of yoga again. Tara also does amazing Thai massage, I highly recommend having one while you're on the island!

Awesome webinars and nutritional information. After struggling with some well-known diets, I learned from Tara that different people have different metabolic types and it's definitely not one size fits all. Tara had a lot of great suggestions for healthy meal planning that would not make me feel sluggish, cranky or deprived. She also got me into the 10-day sugar detox, which has been really great in helping me become more mindful of how much sugar I take in. Also had the pleasure of visiting her studio on Monhegan and taking her yoga class. Great instructor for all levels of ability. I highly recommend.

Balance is the key word for Monhegan Wellness. Tara Hire incorporates her connection with nature in every aspect of her craft. Tara is someone who listens and understands that everyone is an Individual. She takes the time to develop a program that offers you success as well as a balance point you can steer your life from. Give yourself the gift of meeting her in person at one of her retreats on the magical island of Monhegan. I promise you will find her and the Island equally rejuvenating.
