Inspiring Conversations with Jason and Madison Schwind of Meraki Ways

Today we’d like to introduce you to Jason and Madison Schwind. Them and their team share their story with us below:

Jason and Madison have always been incredibly passionate about living a healthy lifestyle while being good to the planet. Yoga has always been part of their daily lives and they have decided to dive deeper into their practice by receiving their 200hr teacher training certification. As a couple, parents, and business owners they felt there was something missing and decided to birth Meraki Ways as an all-inclusive community for like-minded individuals. Meraki Ways is a yoga and adventure retreat company designed for humans that wish to live a healthy lifestyle and minimize their impact on the planet.

Throughout the years, they have taken steps to reduce their footprint and hope to share tips with others through gardening, composting, and up-cycling. They have also explored alternative diets and have become vegan and gluten-free (Madison has Celiac Disease). They are constantly on the go but have found great ways to eat healthy and sustainably meal plans and prep to reduce food waste and minimize impact.

Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
We have been very grateful for the success of Meraki Ways. Sadly, Covid was a huge setback for our brand as travel was halted and people were unable to gather.

Great, so let’s talk business. Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
Meraki is a greek word it stands for soul, creativity, and love. We put these into all aspects of our life and that is how we birthed our brand.

Meraki Ways is a yoga and adventure retreat company that is designed for all humans who wish to live a healthy lifestyle and do better for the planet. We provide everything you need to have an experience of a lifetime and provide support for when you get back home. We are also in the process of opening a yoga studio and event space in Denver!

What do you like best about our city? What do you like least?
We absolutely love the city of Denver. There are so many incredible things to do around the city and something for everyone! We really enjoy all of the parks and easy access to nature.
