Join us on a journey within the magical waters of Hawaii!

For many centuries myths and legends from all over the world have attested to the healing influence the ocean waters and dolphins have on human beings.

At this retreat we will gather for 5 days and 4 nights to find sanctuary in the outside world, as well as in our own body, mind, and spirit.

Each morning we will enter the warm Hawaiian ocean and explore beings living in the sea, wild Hawaiian spinner dolphins, sea turtles, and various other swimmers.

In the afternoon we will gather as a human pod and inquire the personal myths and stories inspired from our encounters. We will express current life themes, reconnect to our true inner rhythm, and gather resources for our life and art through the tools of:

  • Expressive Arts Therapy (Halprin Life/Art Process)
  • Somatic Movement
  • Active Meditation

At this retreat you will have the opportunity to:

  • Take time for yourself, slow down and reconnect to your true inner rhythm
  • Listen to the wisdom of your body
  • Engage in a creative dialogue and expand your creativity
