Timeline

Details

Day 1 · February 15, 2025

Build a sense of community after arriving in Italy

Arrive in Italy, step off the plane, and feel an overall lightness to your being. Your spirit is aware that you have just taken the first step on a new journey that will leave you feel rejuvenated and refreshed, and a weight has been dropped from your shoulders. From the airport, we will transfer to the accommodation, a beautiful and rustic retreat in the Italian countryside that serves as a detox from stress, screens, and everything that doesn't serve your personal wellness. We will begin our wellness activities tomorrow; for now, drop your bags and enjoy some free time to get settled.

In the evening, we’ll come together for an opening ceremony and circle led by Michelle — a time and place to get to know the group and set intentions for the days ahead. From here, head to a community welcome dinner to break bread and officially kick off this retreat. While you're here, this is your family, and they are here to support you on your path.

Day 2 · February 16, 2025

A workshop and a wellness session kick off our retreat

Good morning! Today is the first true day of our retreat, and the schedule that we establish today will largely be followed in the days to come. Our rhythm begins slowly and peacefully as we rise and head to breakfast, fueling up and preparing for what is to come. A morning workshop then follows. The day carries on with some free time, giving you space to work on whatever feels necessary for you, until our pre-dinner session of yoga and meditation. Enjoy the sensation of working through graceful movements and finding a sense of tranquility within your mind. A delectable dinner will cap off the events of the day.

Day 3 · February 17, 2025

Indulge in some free time, then learn how to cook Italian style

The sun is rising over the hills, lighting up our surroundings and inviting you to greet the day. The first half of our day is just like yesterday: breakfast and a workshop will kick things off while luxurious free time and lunch bring us into the afternoon. During your free time in the middle of the day, you can walk along the many paths on the property, indulge in some quiet moments alone, or bond with the other retreat-goers.

When the sun sets over the idyllic landscape, we’ll come together for a cooking class where we can learn all about Italian cooking, then we can enjoy our labors in the form of dinner.

Day 4 · February 18, 2025

A final full day in harmony with wine and a feast of goodbyes

We have reached the last full day of our Italian wellness retreat. We have all made a great deal of internal progress already, but our time isn't quite up; approach today with an open mind and try to be as present as possible to make sure that you make the best use of this final day of activities. Our morning workshop will build upon the lessons and themes we have been discussing throughout the trip while also looking towards the future: our trip may be ending soon, but that doesn't mean that you can't continue your practice once you return home!

After lunch, however, we will shift gears and embark on a private tour of the organic farm on the property. We'll learn about how the retreat respects the land while cultivating fresh, health-focused produce. The tour will also include a wine tasting, because a key part of wellness is remembering to treat yourself and enjoy life's simple pleasures.

In the evening, a yoga and meditation session awaits until, finally, we enjoy dinner as a family and begin saying our goodbyes.

Day 5 · February 19, 2025

Head home after a fantastic retreat

The time has come for us to say goodbye to Italy, our retreat, and the people who have made it so special. After breakfast today, we will be transferring to the airport so that you can catch your flight home. We're so glad that you could join us on this journey; we'll see you on the next one! Safe travels, and be well.
