      What a fabulous treat this much needed break was. Good to push myself with some challenging exercise, but also loved the restorative practices, which I was initially uncertain about. All in a gentle, welcoming environment with delicious homemade vegetarian food.. Would I do it all again tomorrow? In a heartbeat….

      This trip was even better than I imagined. The attendees were all so kind and fun to spend time with, the instructors were incredibly talented, the itinerary was a perfect balance of structured activities and relaxation time, and the sights of Montenegro were stunning!
      By Hannah S for Refresh the Spirit: Pilates, Meditation, and Sound Healing on Oct 17, 2023
      It was in general and each day for itself absolutely amazing. The organization was 10/10! I am so grateful for all the things we’ve done and the peace I’ve found for me with all these amazing people, the Pilates and Yoga and our trips. A week/retreat couldn’t be more perfect and I will definitely will do a second one with Christine! So much Love!

      It was great. I enjoyed having everything planned for me! I got sick on the last few days and wasn’t able to fully enjoy it as I had hoped so that was a bummer! I was also the only woman in her 40’s. I didn’t realize everyone would be so young or that it would even matter but I found it hard to connect with people who were in such a different phase of life than me. But that isn’t anybody’s fault!

      Aww Sarah, I am so sorry you were sick and not able to participate in the retreat experience :/ Our age group typically ranges from late 20s to mid 60s but each retreat is different and we find it beautiful seeing people come together from different backgrounds, ages, and cultures. I hope you can join us for a future event in full health! Sending love & gratitude your way.

      I had such a magical time on this retreat. From the accommodations (Bodhi Tree), to the location, to the hosts (Christine, Natalie and Khetanya) everything was perfect. The Bodhi Tree was a beautiful and very special place to call home for a week. The rooms were comfortable, the pools lovely and the food fantastic! The location, Nosara, couldn't have been better...rainforest, lovely beaches, cute town, great culture. I felt safe and at home the entire time. Our hosts were the best! Christine made sure everything was coordinated from our rooms, to our shalas (where we did pilates) and our well-being. We were able to completely relax and focus on ourselves. It was an introspective, restorative and healing week, for sure! I will definitely take more Wildly Well Retreats in the future.
