Welcome! We would like to tell you that you are not alone if you are feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, and disconnected from yourself lately. You're here to get in touch with yourself, achieve your full potential, and create sustainable lifestyle rituals that support your mind, body, and spirit.

By attending this 5-Day Yoga & Wellbeing Retreat in beautiful Florida and especially in this nature healing-sustainable space, you will emerge from this experience with a wealth of inspiration and mindful tools to live with more clarity and intention in your life. 

Yely Rivas-Staley, your Mindfulness Teacher, will guide you through daily guided meditations, yoga practices, and three Mindful Selfcare classes that are designed to break the stigma associated with self care. In these classes, you will learn what selfcare is, why it is important, and how to customize your self-care routine. 

Dr. Monisha Bhanote, your Wellbeing Teacher, will guide you through three Wellbeing Sessions that are designed to introduce you to the latest science in health and wellness while providing you with rituals and techniques you can apply throughout your daily life on your return home.

In addition, this environment is ideal to nurture close connections with fellow mindful humans who are also embarking on this wellbeing journey, helping you to support and encourage each other, resulting in friendships that will last well after the retreat is over. This experience will help you uncover how you can tap into your infinite wisdom and potential through physical, mindful, and nourishing self-care practices, which you can then easily implement after our time together.

So, what can you expect when attending this retreat?  

We invite you to please keep browsing and reading about this experience below, and we both hope that what we have created here is precisely what you are looking for to help you feel more aligned with your authentic truth in this moment of your life. 

We want to offer a safe space, so this group is limited to only 23 students.
