7 Day all-inclusive sacred-self care, yoga & wellness retreat to detoxify your body, mind & spirit.
This Retreat is Over.
But you can get join our next retreat!
Imagine this… You wake up in a private, healing sanctuary to panoramic views of the magical and sacred Hawaiian island of O’ahu. Your body comes to life as you begin to move and stretch during a dynamic morning yoga practice followed by guided meditation.
Afterwards you are provided a healthy, delicious, organic, and locally sourced breakfast, followed by a powerful chakra-clearing breathwork session. You then head to the pristine, secluded beach for some time to soak in the natural beauty and swim in the crystal clear water or hike to a nearby waterfall, before a Pilates session and sunset dinner by the pool, overlooking the ocean.
You end the night with a yoga sleep meditation (Yoga Nidra) while taking one step closer to reclaiming your sacred self.
Join us for a 7-day all-inclusive sacred self-care, yoga and wellness retreat and this could be YOU!
Our intimate retreat has been carefully tailored to meet your individual needs – whether you are a seasoned yogi or just beginning, this week will nurture your physical, emotional, and spiritual bodies to improve overall health and wellness, connect you more deeply with your innate Divine wisdom and provide you with tools to continue your healing journey at home.
FEEL LIGHTER IN BODY, MIND & SPIRIT
We invite you to detoxify your Body, Mind & Spirit and embrace the healing Spirit of Aloha in a highly personalized, small group setting.
Spring is the perfect time to release the heaviness and stagnate energy, physical weight and emotional blockages accumulated during the dark, winter months.
It is a time of renewal and awakening. It is a time to shed the past and plant the seeds for a new future. It is a time for you to detoxify, cleanse and release - letting go of self-sabotaging habits, beliefs and behaviors.
This week addresses the root cause of im-balance and dis-harmony within, by working equally on all the layers of self; physical, mental, and spiritual.
We believe that this is the path to deep and lasting healing and transformation.
You'll learn about an Ayurvedic lifestyle, yoga, Breathwork techniques, and more which calm your mind and nervous system, heal digestion, bring the body into sync with the natural rhythms of nature, release trapped emotions and trauma, and deepen connection and alignment with Self and the flow of life.
It’ time to inhale the energy of unconditional love (Aloha) and exhale fear…to reignite your inner light and reclaim your Sacred Self. It is time for you to focus on YOU!
Does any of this sound familiar?
Your body is drained. Your energy is depleted. Stress levels have reached a breaking point and your soul yearns for peace. You find yourself perpetually on the edge of physical, mental and spiritual exhaustion, impatient with your loved ones and overwhelmed by the pace of the ever-changing world…(not to mention waaaay too much screen time).
Maybe you’re experiencing more sleepless nights, anxiety about the future and a feeling of being stuck. You’ve been telling yourself that you’re “fine” but actually you feel like you’re under duress and have been numbing it out with Netflix and/or Napa Valley’s finest or too many late night snacks. We get it. We feel it too. These thoughts and emotions are valid.
All of us have experienced such drastic change over the last few years, some of us have developed self-sabotaging habits just to cope. We’ve collected heavy toxins in our bodies and minds and yearn for a fresh start - a reset of the body, mind and spirit.
Our carefully tailored Holistic Wellness Program will:
Purify & Detoxify Body, Mind, and Spirit (through invigorating physical practices & Ayurvedic teachings & a nourishing, healthy, detoxifying diet)
Calm the Nervous System (via meditation, immersion in nature, deep rest, relaxation and the spaciousness to simple BE)
Improve Sleep, Mood, and Energy Levels (unplug & align with your natural biorhythms, tuning into your body wisdom and letting go of stagnant energy that blocks vitality)
Reconnect with the Divine (spiritual practices, intuitive development & sacred ceremony)
Build Capacity to Receive More Joy and Pleasure (Somatic practices, healing the inner-child, cultivating self-love & self-worth)

THE SACRED MAKAHA VALLEY, O’AHU
The ancient Hawaiians lived in a state of
oneness & timelessness
with all that is.
The energy of these islands
is Aloha
The literal meaning of aloha is "the presence of breath" or "the breath of life." It comes from "Alo," meaning presence, front and face, and "ha," meaning breath. Aloha is a way of living and treating each other with love and respect. Its deep meaning starts by teaching ourselves to love our own beings first, and afterwards to spread love to others.
According to the old Kahunas (priests), being able to live the Spirit of Aloha was a way of reaching self-perfection and realization for our own body and soul. Aloha is sending and receiving positive energy. Aloha is living in harmony. When you live the Spirit of Aloha, you create positive feelings and thoughts, which are never gone. They exist in space, multiply and spread over to others.
MEET YOUR GUIDES
Liisa Hamalainen, Yoga & Wellness Facilitator
Liisa is a Stott Pilates Instructor, an Ayurveda Lifestyle Advisor, Breathwork facilitator and is RYT certified to teach Dynamic yoga (which creatively blends the principles of Ashtanga and lyengar with meditation and breath.)
As a former professional Ballerina, Liisa spent a lifetime around movement and physicality. She discovered that Pilates was a great tool to help her body get stronger when injured, but also an amazing method to create a strong mind-body connection. The transition from Ballet to Pilates was a natural one for her and after becoming certified as a Stott Pilates instructor, she created a thriving Pilates practice.
However, through working with her clients, and from her own journey to healing, Liisa understood the need to gain additional tools to access and heal the mind and the spirit in addition to the body. She was called to study Yoga, Ayurveda, and Breathwork techniques and to share these healing practices with others. She was amazed at the incredible range of benefits she saw in herself and in her clients as she began teaching and practicing an Ayurvedic lifestyle, yoga, on and off the mat, and Breathwork techniques which calm the mind and nervous system, heal digestion, bring the body into sync with the natural rhythms of nature, release trapped emotions and trauma and deepen connection and alignment with Self and the flow of life. Her goal is to forward these powerful tools, knowledge and practices to others.
Of her teaching, Liisa says “I love to inspire, motivate and help other people to become the most authentic, pure, and the best version of themselves. My teaching addresses the root cause of dis-balance and dis-harmony within, by working equally on all the layers of self; physical, mental, and spiritual. I believe that only then can we truly transform and heal.”
Rebecca Baldwin, Spiritual Facilitator
Intuitive Guide, Soul Coach, and Metaphysical Teacher, Rebecca Baldwin, will guide you through techniques designed to enhance your intuitive abilities and discover your Soul’s purpose - so that you may live a more heart-centered, meaningful life in alignment with your Soul’s deepest yearnings.

Chelsea Brooks, Yoga Nidra & Retreat Facilitator
Chelsea has been practicing yoga for over two decades. In 2017, she acted on a desire to deepen her practice and made the commitment to temporarily move to Amorgos Greece for an intensive 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training. Through that training and those that came after, she experienced the extraordinary physical, mental, and emotional impacts of practicing yoga.
Chelsea continues her professional training with certificates in Trauma Informed Yoga, I AM Yoga Nidra, Aqua Kriya Yoga, and Myofascial Release Yoga. Through these methods, she is dedicated to helping others connect with a personal yoga practice that balances the physical with the mental and helps them release and heal the symptoms of PTSD, addiction, stress, and depression. Enabling her to work with veterans and first responders to support their personal growth and healing.
Whether Chelsea is teaching a beginner, a vigorous Vinyasa flow, Self-awakening Yoga, Myofascial Release, or Yoga Nidra class, students can expect to explore their strengths, work on a personal focus, and discover inner balance both on and off the mat.
