Our yoga retreats and adventure tours are designed with recovery in mind. We are both in long term recovery from addiction, and proud of it. It doesn’t stop there though. Everyone is recovering from something, whether it’s trauma, substance use, heartbreak, stress, diet culture, or just the disconnection of everyday life in our high-tech, capitalistic world. New adventures When you get the opportunity to go somewhere new, get outside your comfort zone, and create community with people you’ve never met before, that brings deep healing. Nature When you learn to live with more connection to nature, that brings deep healing. Community When you get to leave your labels and baggage at home and meet a whole new group of people who have embarked on a similar journey, that brings deep healing. Yoga Yoga teaches us to reconnect to the divine within us and stay present with each breath, movement, and moment. People already on the path of recovery or healing who know a retreat like this can help unlock more joy and fulfillment on their journey. You don’t have to be sober; you can be in recovery from anything. People in pursuit of authentic, adventurous, like-minded community. People who are sober-curious, yoga-curious, or just ready to explore a more connected way of living! Yoga retreats provide vital opportunities for digital detox and intention setting. We want our yoga retreats to be accessible to everyone regardless of finances, so we also offer recovery scholarships.
We will have vegan food and desserts.
There will be a few meals that are not included because we will be eating out, so you will have the chance to try some local Thai food!
