Retreats

A chance to step away, slow down, and reconnect—with yourself, each other, and nature.

I am passionate about creating retreats that foster connection and belonging, inviting you to step away from daily life and immerse yourself in relaxation, rejuvenation, and meaningful connections. Each retreat offers a blend of daily yoga, soothing sound baths, and time for inward reflection, creating a supportive space to reconnect with yourself and others. In addition, we incorporate a silent nature hike for quiet reflection, followed by a social hike on the return journey.

I host two annual retreats at Breitenbush Hot Springs in Oregon each spring and fall, along with two destination retreats in stunning locations worldwide.

At our retreats, we create a welcoming space where strangers become friends. Participants are encouraged to connect with someone new, fostering genuine interactions and shared experiences. By the time the retreat concludes, meaningful friendships have been forged, and everyone leaves with a sense of connection and belonging.

Connecting and bonding over shared meals, each participant is encouraged to dine with someone they don't know yet, fostering deeper connections and meaningful interactions.

Forest bathing and silent hikes are integral to every retreat. Each hike is thoughtfully scouted in advance, offering both easy and challenging options to suit all levels. We begin in silence, immersing ourselves in the natural surroundings and personal reflection, and then enjoy a social hike on the way back, sharing the experience together.

Each retreat also includes dedicated time for inward reflection. A guiding question is posed in advance, inviting participants to journal or simply contemplate their response in silent connection with nature.
