Paradise Park founder faces her own family loss to help others heal

Savauna Sage is the founder and CEO of Paradise Park ATL (LaShawn Hudson/WABE)

Savauna Sage believes that the body is a temple. She also understands the importance of healing the mind, body and spirit — and that’s why holistic living is at the forefront of her life’s work.

After losing her brother and cousin to suicide and dealing with other life challenges, she founded Paradise Park ATL in Douglas County. Sage says the facility isn’t a spa or Airbnb. But she prides the sacred land as a place for transformation.

The 8-acre, riverfront wellness sanctuary provides its visitors a place to disconnect from day-to-day stressors and connect with themselves and nature. Sound and aromatherapy, Thai stretch, goat yoga and guided meditations are a few of the activities that visitors can enjoy.
