Rest and Receive®

Learn how to maintain and return to those practices on-demand, continuing long after the retreat.

It’s not all “dolce far niente” sweet doing nothing time. Some adventure takes place, too!

Upcoming Retreats

With this Rest and Receive®, you are taken care of from arrival to departure in Zagreb, Croatia’s capital, and throughout our leisurely journey together in Istria, a triangular peninsula at the head of the Adriatic arm of the Mediterranean Sea.

We’ll explore spectacular locations of ancient history, including Roman temples, Colosseum and basilicas, medieval towns in refreshing natural settings, mystical stone hills, and ancient Goddess sites. We’ll also spend time in vibrant city settings, romancing our taste buds with gourmet organic food bursting with vitality.

We’ll incorporate morning movement and skillful workshops to teach you how to amplify, maintain and return to practices of self-rejuvenation on-demand, continuing after the retreat.
