The Art of Slowing Down
You're invited to join a weekend retreat designed to expand your capacity for stillness.
Four days on the White River. Peaceful and luxurious property.
No noise. No WiFi.
Just nature, stillness, and science-backed practices that help you slow down enough to hear your body's intelligence again.
Our Spring Arkansas Nature Immersion Retreat is coming soon! Join our waitlist for first access when we announce dates.
Nature and Your Body Holds the Wisdom Your Mind Has Been Seeking.
The Setting
Four Days On The White River.
A peaceful, luxurious property nestled in the Arkansas mountains.
This location, although stunning, was not chosen for its aesthetics. It was chosen because this land has held deep practice for decades. Because the White River does something to our system that we can’t replicate in the city. Because stillness is easier to find somewhere that has never forgotten how to be still.
No WiFi. No notifications. No schedule that demands anything of you.

Testimonials
“The Returning to Self retreat was both peaceful and helpful. What stood out most for me was learning to be intentional during meditation by asking myself what I need—something I hadn’t done before. I really enjoyed the yoga and meditation sessions, and meeting new people added to the experience. The house was spacious and had plenty of room for everyone. Overall, I had a wonderful and fulfilling time at the retreat.”
Sara Davis, Past Retreat Participant
“One of the most valuable takeaways from the retreat was learning how important it is to slow down, something I really needed at the time while trying to finish my PhD. That experience helped me rebuild my mind-body connection and taught me to be more present, even during the most intense periods of my life."
Dr. Yulya Naussbaum, Past Retreat Participant
“I loved getting to be in a shared space practicing meditations that gave opportunities to share and hear others’ reflections. It is so powerful to practice with a diverse group of women with different levels of exposure to meditation practices, yet relating to each other’s experiences so deeply.”
Rae Cooper, LCSW Past Event Participant
