You are Welcome
Settle into serenity with our 3-day, 2-night silent yoga retreat by the beach. Set against a serene coastal backdrop, this retreat blends rejuvenation with introspection, offering a holistic experience for both body and soul.

Join Alisha Nissenfeld and survivalist, Ali Williams, on an unforgettable adventure along North Carolina’s breathtaking coast. We’ll depart from Harker’s Island and delve into the allure of untouched islands. We’ll be graced by the wild ponies of Shackleford Island, and explore the historic Cape Lookout Lighthouse and its keeper’s quarters on South Core Banks. We’ll travel across the waters in sleek 14-foot touring kayaks, equipped with spray skirts for added comfort. All meals are provided, ensuring you can focus on the wonders of the journey ahead.

Being among the trees chemically changes the body. It reduces stress, lowers blood pressure, calms anxiety, and counters feelings of social isolation leaving practitioners more relaxed and in a better mood. Study after study has proven experiences like this, in nature, is highly effective for self soothing and result in increased empathy and improved focus.

Do you want o travel somewhere magical and take a moment just for you?

I’m pretty sure your answer is YES!!!
