Our 5 Days Together
Day 1: Welcome To Your Retreat
Doors open on Day One at 1 pm with an arrival lunch. Ample time is provided for you to unpack, meet your community of fellow seekers, take in the views or go for a walk, pour yourself a glass of wine or cup of tea, and settle in for a full week of nourishment. Together, we’ll enjoy a welcoming gourmet spread and tour the community to get acquainted with our environs and each other.
Days 2-4: Return to Purpose
Return to Purpose is a uniquely designed retreat where we meet the needs of our guests in an environment that is curated to foster inward exploration.
This experience is fully guided to support you as you deepen your relationship with your life’s signature purpose and elevate your heart’s calling. Explore how your personal gifts intersect with the need of the times and why the world is aching for you to fully express yourself – all through a contemplative lens, informed by your Self.
Day 5: One Final Sit
Our final morning concludes with one last morning meditation and a spectacular brunch. Close your retreat with renewed intention and trust that what you’re taking home is new awareness, new friends, a full belly and heart, and a Return to Purpose.
Arrival is at 1 pm on May 23 and check-out is by 12 pm on May 27. Each full retreat day includes group sessions of meditation, supportive tools, writing, coaching, wholesome food and drink, and more.
What’s Included
Private Coaching Sessions
Enjoy two intentional one-on-one sessions with Andrea and Kristin. This privately curated time is designed to support you more deeply in your personal exploration as you explore your signature purpose.
Daily Meditation
Each day will begin with a period of silence prior to our group session so you can tee up your day with reverence. Throughout the day, Kristin will intuitively guide us, weaving in periods of guided and/or silent meditation.
Journal Writing
Andrea will assist you throughout the day with personal journal reflections that include a daily Morning Pages practice. These are all aimed at helping you gain a better understanding of your purpose.
Group Gathering Spaces
The journey towards finding one's purpose can be overwhelming and solitary at times. Group sessions offer an empowering space for individuals to navigate this profound inquiry collectively. These sessions serve as a supportive and nurturing environment, inviting you to share experiences, exchange insights, and inspire one another.
Sound Bath
Set under the sway of skirted palms, our signature sound therapy session will invite you to go even deeper. Our local energy healer will meet the vibes of the moment with her crystal and metal bowls, attuning to individual and group needs in real time.
Meals & Sit-Down Dinners
Wholesome food enhances our capacity for a wholesome experience. All meals and snacks will be selected with this in mind. And with farm-to-table dinners, and daily snacks available 24/7, you won’t go hungry at this retreat! (As our retreat draws near, you’ll have the opportunity to make known any dietary needs.)
A Fully Guided Experience
If you’re looking for a retreat filled with unstructured time and space for you to do your own thing then please know this is not the retreat for you. This experience is fully guided to support you as you refire your heart’s calling alongside a community of like-hearted women+ who are there to do the same.
