Lila’s Lake Atitlan retreat blew my expectations out the water. It was such an amazing, transformational week. It was the perfect amount of yoga mixed with other activities- all so well thought through. I left feeling inspired by the people I had met and the depth of the connections and totally reset and ready for the new year. The retreat centre itself was literally paradise and lake Atitlan has a very special energy. So glad I attended this retreat and would recommend Lila’s retreats to anyone !!

Wonderful yoga retreat led by Nova and Lila Hamed and her team. It was held in a beautiful location in the mountains of North Carolina held at Moonlight Rising retreat center.

Wow! From the moment I pulled into this restful, lush, inviting retreat I was immersed in calm. All of the elements worked so well together for respite, amazing yoga / teachings, new friendships, emotional balance, comfortable accommodations and excellent food and hospitality. I highly recommend Lila and her team who provided their wisdom and instruction in the retreat's daily programs. It was above and beyond any expectations. THANK YOU Inner Sanctuary Team and Hosts Bond and Claire.

This retreat was exactly the reset I needed. The retreat center was beautiful and peaceful, the food was absolutely exceptional! Lila is such a graceful and calming presence. Her graciousness made it a safe haven for self-reflection, vulnerability and growth. I felt deeply nourished—physically, emotionally, and spiritually. What an amazing retreat.

This was such an incredible experience. First of all, Diala's yoga classes are like non other. She gets each counter stretch just right and my body just feels sooooo good when we're done. The additional guided meditations and yin she sprinkled in were lovely. I also enjoyed the breathwork exercises a lot. The retreat center she chose was immaculate and was truly a pivotal part of the experience. Having a hands on host who guided us on an incredible waterfall hike and to a basically private beach was also an extra treat. It was comfortable to be guided by a local and he took us to places we wouldn't have found otherwise. Diala's dedication to researching the right venue resulted in an above and beyond experience.
