About your trip

Nestled in the San Bernardino Mountains just a few hours from the California coast, Big Bear offers the perfect setting to step away from your routine and reconnect with what matters most.

But this retreat is more than just an escape.

It’s a reset for your direction, your mindset, and what’s next in your life.

Over four days, you’ll move through a carefully designed experience that blends yoga, nature, and transformational workshops to help you:

  • Get clear on what you truly want

  • Understand what’s been holding you back

  • Release patterns that are keeping you stuck

  • Step into a more confident, aligned version of yourself

  • Leave with a clear plan you can actually follow

Each day combines movement, time in nature, and guided experiences—from a scenic mountain hike and paddleboarding, to breathwork, a fire release ceremony, and a final vision + action planning session.

You’ll have space to slow down and reset—but also the structure to create real change.

This retreat is open to individuals and couples, and welcomes all genders ages 18+.

In the evening, you’ll move into a guided workshop focused on clarifying what you truly want and, more importantly, why it matters.

Break the Pattern: Awareness + Release

Start your day with movement and breakfast before heading out for a guided hike through the mountains. Along the way, you’ll be guided through reflection prompts designed to bring awareness to patterns, habits, and beliefs that may be keeping you stuck.

In the afternoon, we’ll dive into a powerful workshop to map your current identity and understand how your past experiences and patterns have shaped your present reality.

After dinner, you’ll move through a guided releasing ritual followed by a breathwork experience designed to help you process and release stored tension—mentally, emotionally, and physically.

Day 3

Become Your Next-Level Self: Embodiment + Confidence

We’ll begin the day with a grab-and-go breakfast before heading out for a morning by the water. You’ll experience a beachside yoga session followed by paddleboarding—an opportunity to step out of your comfort zone, build confidence, and stay present.

While still at the beach, you’ll participate in a powerful “line in the sand” ritual, where you’ll make a clear decision about who you’re choosing to be moving forward.

You’ll then have free time in a nearby village to explore, shop, and enjoy lunch at your own pace.

In the afternoon, we’ll return for a workshop focused on stepping into your next-level self—followed by an evening session on building essential qualities like self-trust, boundaries, and taking action even when it’s uncomfortable.

We’ll close the day with a fire release ceremony, where you’ll let go of what you’re no longer carrying and fully step into what’s next.

Theme: Practice being the version of you you’ve been holding back.

Day 4

We’ll then move into a vision board workshop to visually anchor your next chapter, followed by a closing circle to reflect, integrate, and leave feeling clear, grounded, and ready to move forward.

Departure begins early afternoon.

Theme: Turn clarity into action and leave with a plan.
