Escape the noise. Return to your nature.

Join us for a deeply nourishing weekend retreat designed to support the health and balance of your mind, body, heart, and soul. Just a 4.5-hour drive from South Florida, Sarana Wellness Retreat is nestled in nature and surrounded by some of Florida’s most breathtaking natural springs.

This weekend is an invitation to unplug from the busyness of life, break free from unconscious routines and digital overload, and awaken a deeper sense of peace, creativity, and connection.

Together, we’ll share in:

Come as you are. Leave renewed.

Nicoleta Metta is a Holistic Healer, Mentor, and Spiritual Alchemist devoted to guiding individuals into deeper alignment of body, mind, and spirit.

A Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT), Nicoleta brings a rich, integrative background in the healing arts, including Reiki Mastery, Sound Healing Facilitation, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) Master Practitioner training, Access Bars Facilitation, Mindfulness Meditation instruction, and Fitness & Aqua Instruction. She also holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Chemistry, allowing her to bridge the worlds of science and spirituality with clarity and integrity.

Her teachings are grounded in both ancient wisdom and modern science, drawing upon the principles of quantum field energetics and their influence on physical, emotional, and mental well-being. Through intentional practices and conscious awareness, Nicoleta supports others in activating their innate healing potential.

At the heart of her work is a deep passion for inspiring people to become the highest version of themselves and to embody their dreams with confidence and purpose.

Nicoleta is a true dancer of life, devoted to Latin rhythms, belly dance, and ecstatic movement as forms of embodied meditation. A multidisciplinary artist, she expresses her creativity through drawing and painting, and she creates health products inspired by her gifts as a chemist. With a deeply compassionate heart and a genuine love for humanity, Nicoleta is committed to uplifting others through movement, creativity, and conscious living.

Nicoleta’s current focus is Feminine Embodiment and Somatic Movement Dance

Her own journey of returning to her feminine essence has deeply inspired her path. Through reconnecting with her body, softening into feeling, and remembering her natural rhythm, Nicoleta found her way back to herself.

Moved by this transformation, she now works with women around the world, guiding them to reconnect with their feminine bodies through somatic movement and feeling activation. Her work supports the remembrance of their pure, authentic feminine essence—restoring beauty, presence, and inner softness.

Nicoleta lovingly invites women into the most intimate work with self, offering a sacred and nurturing space for those who desire a softer, more embodied way of living—one that honors feminine beauty within the busyness and “doing” of everyday life.

In this retreat, Nicoleta will guide Yoga, Meditation, Somatic Dance, Feminine Embodiment practices, and Sound Healing.

She feels deeply honored and enthusiastic to be part of this beautiful gathering, sharing her gifts and holding space for all to reconnect with their bodies, their essence, and the quiet wisdom within.

Evan Jay Robins is a guide, father, entrepreneur, and embodiment-based facilitator devoted to helping people return to alignment in mind, body, and spirit. With decades of experience in leadership, finance, and personal mastery, Evan’s work is rooted not in theory—but in lived transformation.

After years of operating in high-performance environments, mainly in financial services as mortgage lending professional, while navigating profound personal transitions, Evan reached a pivotal moment: success without alignment no longer felt like success at all. That realization became the catalyst for his deeper devotion to inner work—stillness, presence, breath, discipline, and truth. What emerged was a calling to create spaces where people can slow down, reconnect, and remember who they are beneath the noise of modern life. He founded ALIGNMENTribe (with 1 T) Align. Men. Tribe. The mission is to give men a space to learn, practice and express themselves in safe space with the intention of evolving to the their best version. This works perfectly for this retreat as Evan will be doing a separate Men's circle on Saturday.

Evan’s facilitation style is grounded, calm, and deeply intentional. He leads from embodied presence rather than force, holding a strong yet compassionate container where participants feel safe to soften, release, and realign. His work blends silent meditation, guided journaling, ritual, cold immersion, and ceremonial openings and closings designed to mark genuine internal shifts—not just “experiences.”

At this retreat, Evan will guide the Alignment Activation Journaling Meditation at the opening and closing ceremonies, facilitate the cold plunge ceremony, hold a dedicated men’s circle focused on integrity, responsibility, emotional clarity, and grounded masculine leadership and support the collective go ensure we all have an optimal experience.

His intention is not to fix anyone—but to help participants access their own inner authority and clarity. Those who show up can expect to leave feeling more centered, regulated, and connected—to themselves, their bodies, and their truth. His work invites presence over performance, depth over distraction, and alignment over striving.

In 2021, I found myself in one of the hardest seasons of my life—not because of physical pain, but because of emotional pain. It was the kind of hurt that no doctor could treat, the kind that silently weighs on your heart and soul. I was searching for peace, for relief, for something to help me feel whole again.

That’s when I took a leap and attended a three-day wellness retreat. It changed everything. In those few days, surrounded by nature, healing practices, and compassionate people, I experienced something profound. I realized how deeply emotional pain can affect our physical health, and how powerful true healing can be when we create space for it.

That experience lit a spark in me. I knew I wasn’t alone in my struggles—and I wanted to help others find the same peace I had found. So, I took a bold step and purchased a 10-acre farmhouse nestled in the beauty of nature, near some of Florida’s most stunning springs and not far from Michael Singer’s Temple of the Universe.

This retreat center was born from that vision: a safe, nurturing space where people can come to rest, reconnect, and truly heal. My mission is to guide others through their own journeys of transformation—gently, naturally, and with love.

Here, you are not alone. Here, you are supported. And here, healing begins.
