The Bhakti Way Retreat
A 5-Day / 4-Night Somatic & Spiritual Immersion

The Bhakti Way Retreat is an intimate, earth-rooted journey of embodiment, healing, and remembrance. Through movement, ritual, rest, and sacred sisterhood, we gather to soften the nervous system, awaken pleasure and vitality, and reconnect to the deeper wisdom of the body and spirit.

This retreat is designed to feel held, intentional, and spacious—balancing deep inner work with beauty, play, and restoration.
