  • This retreat is for anyone seeking calm, clarity, and a restorative reset.

    • No prior yoga, meditation, or breathwork experience needed — everything is guided and beginner-friendly.

    • Perfect whether you’re coming solo, with a friend, or as a thoughtful gift.

    • All practices are optional and adaptable — take part at your own pace.

  • What if I don’t want to go in the cold plunge or lake?
    That’s absolutely fine. All activities are optional — you can still enjoy the sauna and hot tubs instead.

    Is the retreat suitable if I’m nervous about cold water?
    Yes. Kelly will guide you with breathwork techniques that help you feel calm and safe. You can dip at your own pace — even just your feet if that feels right.

    What if it rains?
    Our forest bathing hammocks have rain covers, and the studio and spa facilities are warm and sheltered. The retreat runs beautifully in all weather.
