Stimulus Detox Experience

$1,150.00

Are you tired of running from one thing to the next? Do you feel like your life is on rails? What quality of decisions would you make if you could just stop long enough to think? 


Maybe you need a stimulus detox. 


New Adventures Sailing offers an exclusive 4-7 day detox experience.


Start with a ferry ride, we’ll pick you up and take you for a home cooked meal, a 1 hour massage with a nationally certified massage therapist. Then you arrive at the sailing yacht Redemption where you will spend the night aboard in your private cabin. We'll leave for a nearby anchorage for a good night sleep. No technology, we’ll gladly hold your phones or place them in airplane mode. They make good cameras. No social media, news or other external stimulus. We may offer Mocktails or tea for a relaxing evening. 


We depart in the morning for the San Juan Islands 25-35 miles across the Strait of Juan de Fuca and arrive a peaceful anchorage on San Juan or Shaw Island.


Since this is a detox, we encourage walks in the woods, paddle boarding or maybe a cold-plunge in the 55 degree Salish Sea. Then warm up and read a book, or just chat about life. 


We can arrange whale watching excursions baed in Friday or Roche Harbors via kayak or tour boat. 


Sample locally sourced seafood, coffee, ice cream and stroll through small towns along the waterfront. 


Maybe even take a nap in a hammock slowly rocking at anchor. 


This will be a sober experience, no alcohol needed. We encourage journaling and time to take inventory of your life and opportunities. 

Ready to reset? Sail on Redemption.


Add to cart qty = the number of days you want, 4 day minimum.

Price per cabin per day, one couple max for privacy.

Exploring the Sea

12/1/2017

It's been a while since we posted. The Sea of Cortez by La Paz is quite warm, even in January we're seeing 77 degree water which is warm enough for me to swim for an hour and not get cold. However, during the winter months the wind blows from the North all the time, typically 15-20 knots. So the water is pretty stirred up with waves. While the rest of North America is averaging 11 degrees we've been seeing 80-85. The wind calmed down this week and we seized the day. Our friends Steve & Janny said , "Let's take our boat out and see if we can find some whale sharks to swim with." We jumped at that chance. Their catamaran is the perfect platform for that, with a wide deck, and an upper deck to go on lookout. These sharks, the largest fish in the sea, are filter feeders, they pull in huge amounts of water in their large mouths and filter through a special filters in their gills. So in case you're worried, they are perfectly safe. As long as you don't get too close, which is not legal to get closer than 6 ft. Their tale is the only risk, it's very powerful and a snap with it can injur you. 
The second clip is me swimming around in the aquarium of the world. I saw puffer fish, tons of others I have no idea what they were. Coral and sea urchins were plentiful.

We Died and Went to Heaven

January 1, 2017 La Paz, Mexico, Lynette:
Finally some time to sit down and write my thoughts. As 2017 begins I feel so excited for all the new adventures we will experience this year. This last year will go down as the year we were murdered. Yes, that is the word I mean to use. You see murder is taking the life of someone. The lives Tim and I were living a year ago are dead, they were taken away. We can’t bring either one back. Our deaths have been painful. For both of us, we have been struggling with our confidence to get back on the horse and try again. To be able to believe we are good enough at what we each spent years building. We have both decided that we will not allow ourselves to return to the environments we’ve left. Speaking for myself, I most likely will not ever be in a traditional classroom again. The public education world is one where the teacher holds all responsibility for a student to learn prior to college, and soon this may be how the professors will be viewed. For me that is not a healthy view, as all participants need to hold a piece of the responsibility, the school, the teacher, the student and the parent(s).

When we first died in June we decided to stick to the plans to celebrate our 30 years of marriage. We planned and saved for this over a two year period. We could have easily said, “We need that money to live on.” Too many other times in our marriage we did this. Not this time! We chose to invest in our marriage and each other. Since that 40-day celebration & sabbatical we have been in a process of creating a new life individually and together. We have become students of adventure! 

Many times the cliche “I’ve died and gone to heaven” is used as we attempt to explain how wonderful a situation is. Would you feel this way about living out a life dream? I know from our blog, many might think we are living this glamorous life full of fun. So far it has been tough like a funeral as we grieve what was taken or lost, and conduct a wake to celebrate our past lives that have set us up to live differently in this new adventure before us. December was the first month we decided to focus on letting go, looking forward, mending our wounds, and coming out of our grief and heaviness. We needed some time and space before looking back. 

The last day of 2016 I felt like I woke up on the right side of the bed! Things felt so light and right! I felt ready to embrace heaven. Of course this isn’t the literal heaven, but this life we are living in the middle of is made of our dreams. Tim has dreamed of a life at sea since he was a teenager and we are preparing for it. I have dreamed of seeing the world and learning about different cultures since I was a child. To me it doesn’t matter how we do that. We are plunging forward into learning Spanish and experiencing the culture here. The challenge will be to linger long enough to gain some fluency with conversing and yet avoid becoming stuck here as it is a lot like paradise.

Our daughter gave us a card that says: “If you want something you never had, you have to do something you’ve never done.” This is now the story of our lives as we embrace new adventures in our dreamland.

Happy New Year! 

Tim & Lynette

    Tim & Lynette Jenné have their feet firmly planted in midair. We don't know what tomorrow brings, but are very excited to see what surprises come our way. ​Tim's favorite leadership quote:
    "If you want to build a ship, don't drum up people to collect wood and don't assign them tasks and work, but rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea." Antoine de Saint-Exupery

    ​Captain John Jenne (1596 - 1643), son of Henry Jenne and Mary Smythe, was born 21 December 1596 at Lakenham Parish, Norfolk, England; He married Sarah Carey. They emigrated to the Colonies from Leyden in 1623 aboard the Little James, accompanied by the ship Anne. Their daughter Sarah was born 23 July 1623, at sea.
