If you’re ready to learn how to take excellent care of your mind and body then this retreat is for you. You will not only learn about nourishing foods, positive psychology tools, but also take part in great workouts, outdoor activities, and most importantly meet other fun, like-minded people to share tons of laughs with. You will leave the retreat feeling inspired, motivated and ready to make the changes needed to live the life you deserve.
We’re the only health & wellness retreat that offers professional support not just during but also after a visit.
Our 3-day program is designed to inspire, awaken, and change your life. Not only will you de-stress, kickstart your fitness needs, and recharge, but you’ll also learn the necessary tools and skills to integrate our program into your life.
We believe working on the mental and emotional aspect of body challenges is just as important as working on the physical body.
We bring together a community of like-minded people who want to recharge and make positive changes in their lives.
Plus the settings of our retreat are just gorgeous… fresh mountain air, bamboo forest, waterfalls and so much more!
Just come, trust the program and feel the positive energy!
