This trip was much needed for me. The retreat host was amazing, attentive, and nurturing to our needs. My favorite part were the curated meals and the yoga/sound baths. It’s refreshing to connect with like mind and a group with open hearts. Thank you!
By Felicia C for Urban Zen: The Atlanta New Year Wellness Retreat on Jan 16, 2024
The Self Discovery Retreat in Tulum 2023 was the highlight of my year! The itinerary was well crafted and full of love, release, healing and connection. Rikki was attentive and changed things up to accommodate what the group needed. We had plenty of unplanned time so we could use it however we needed. We also had a lot of fun; especially our night out dancing downtown! I went solo and left with incredible connections with like-minded women. I can’t say enough positive things about this beautiful experience! Book it sis! You won’t be disappointed. Thank you Rikki for the amazing journey.

This trip was the reset and a confirmation that I needed. I was able to relax deeply and connect to myself and to others. Food was great and bountiful. Housing location was perfect for the vortex. Breathtaking views with easy hikes, gentle yoga flows, exploring creativity through the inner child, and plenty of time for reflection. I felt no pressure. A true chance to disconnect in order to reconnect. This retreat helped ease connection to my intuition. I’m ready to go back to Sedona. Rikki is a great retreat host! She ensured the vibes were high and held space for us to be. Healers need healing, too. I’m grateful for the Divine Awakening in Sedona, AZ.

What an experience!!! I enjoyed myself so much in Sedona. Rikki truly curated something special that I feel each of us that needed. It was the perfect escape for me to recharge as I prepared for a busy month. One of my favorite activities was the fireside chat at night. We sat by the fire and wrote down things we released and things we wanted to bring in. This was the best way to bring in Q4 and I am grateful for the experience. If you are considering joining a retreat BOOK IT NOW you will not be disappointed and you will leave better than you came.
By Shevon J for Divine Awakening: Sedona 2023 on Oct 11, 2023

I participated in the one day pass Atlanta Wellness Retreat and I honestly did not know what to expect since it was my very first one. From the moment I walked in you can instantly tell that intentions were set and everyone was welcome. The food was excellent, the activities were excellent, everything was excellent. You can tell that Rikki really put forth a lot of energy and time into this experience, I highly recommend you invest in one of her retreats and thank me later. I'm definitely trying my best to try to make another one in the very near future.

I attended the Urban Zen ATL Wellness Retreat and it was amazing. It was a great way to start the new year. I was able to engage in self-care, do some healing, get insight about my goals for this year, eat delicious meals prepared by a great Chef, and meet some incredible people. I am already looking forward to attending another retreat soon.
