Visitors are now able to access Esalen as well as other businesses and trails in northern Big Sur via twice-daily convoys on Highway 1 operated by Caltrans.
Convoys run only at 7:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. each day. These are the only opportunities to travel into and out of Big Sur, so visitors must plan accordingly.
Cara believes the body holds stories the mind cannot always explain.
As a yoga teacher, embodiment facilitator, and ceramic artist, she guides people back to themselves through movement, stillness, meditation, reflective writing, ritual, and creative expression. Her work is an invitation to listen beneath the noise, trust the body's innate wisdom, and remember what has always been there.
Cara creates experiences that weave together embodied practice, mindfulness, self-inquiry, and flow state. Her pottery practice, created under the name Imperfekt Potter, emerged as a meditation in releasing perfectionism and embracing authenticity—an ethos that flows through all of her work.
Cara holds a master's degree in Psychology and is certified in Hatha Yoga and Yoga Nidra.
