October Retreat: Zanzibar

Wednesday, October 15 - Saturday, October 18, 2025

Join me for a long weekend restorative retreat in Zanzibar Island, Tanzania this fall. This Mindfulness retreat invites you to explore the concept of being fully present in the moment. This theme will allow participants to be immersed in the beauty and serenity of nature, encouraging a connection to the natural elements of sea, sand, sun, and wind and a disconnection from your daily routines. In a supportive retreat format, you will practice mindfulness through slowing down, observing the mind-body connection, and allowing an intentional pause to notice what is present when you invite stillness. This retreat encourages you to turn your attention inwards, through meditation, yoga, and spending time in nature. We have also curated a few activities to cultivate mindful awareness through a soap making workshop and a Swahili cooking class. This long weekend retreat invites you to enjoy farm-to-table meals sourced from the on-site permaculture farm that encourages mindful eating habits and gives you the opportunity to nourish mind, body, and spirit.
