You spend your life caring for others. Take some time for you.
Join Dr. Michelle Quirk for the RestRx Spring Reset
A 1-Day Retreat for Women Physicians
Saturday, March 6, 2027 | Normandy Farm in Blue Bell, PA
As women physicians, we spend our days caring for everyone else including our patients, our families, our colleagues, and our communities. We become experts at showing up, pushing through, and carrying more than most people ever see.
What often gets left behind is ourselves.
The RestRx Spring Reset is an invitation to pause.
Created especially for women physicians, this one-day retreat offers the opportunity to step away from the demands of work and home life and spend a day reconnecting with your body, your mind, and yourself.
Inspired by the experience of the RestRx Cape May Retreat, the Spring Reset brings together many of the same elements that participants have come to love: gentle movement, yoga, guided rest practices, meaningful conversation, and spacious time for reflection, all thoughtfully woven into a single day.
While one day can't replace the depth of a long weekend away, it can be exactly what many women physicians need: a chance to step off the treadmill, take a deep breath, and remember what it feels like to simply be.
Whether you're new to RestRx or looking to reconnect with this incredible community, the Spring Reset is a beautiful place to begin.

Michelle Quirk, MD
Dr. Michelle Quirk is a board certified pediatrician and a certified run coach with the Road Runners Club of America (RRCA). She founded Mindful Marathon to help women physicians use running as a path to healing, self-discovery, and sustainable wellbeing.
Michelle loves the balance she feels with a regular movement and rest practice, and she cannot wait to share the powerful results that can be achieved when movement is balanced with rest.
What Our Attendees Are Saying
“Thank you for a wonderful retreat. It truly has been life changing for me.
I have been dabbling in mindfulness but now feel ready to dive deeper.
I felt such warmth and support from all.”
~Dr. Samantha C
“I was hoping for a fresh spark to renew my meditation and movement practice.
Instead I found a group of strong, feeling souls that connected on a level I did not expect!”
~ Dr. Lisa K
“I did not realize how much I needed to nourish my soul until I was at the retreat with the incredible women there! I LOVED it.
We ALL needed it so much. Not to escape real life but to be reminded that every single day is such a gift. And we can and will set an intention for each day.”
~ Dr. Mitra A
