Considerations
This retreat may not be ideal for:
Individuals with Severe Physical Limitations: While the retreat incorporates various movement practices, modifications will be offered. However, if you have severe physical limitations that prevent participation in most movement activities, it might be best to choose a retreat with a focus on gentler practices.
Those Seeking a Party Atmosphere: This retreat prioritizes relaxation, rejuvenation, and self-discovery. While there will be opportunities for connection, it's not designed for a high-energy party environment.
People Uncomfortable with Group Activities: While there will be free time for solitude, the retreat emphasizes group sessions, shared meals, and connection with others. If you're highly introverted and uncomfortable with group activities, this retreat might not be the best fit.
Additionally, consider these factors:
Dietary Restrictions: While the retreat offers nourishing food, it's best to inquire about specific dietary restrictions beforehand to ensure they can be accommodated.
Digital Detox: While not a complete digital detox, the retreat encourages a focus on present-moment awareness. If you require constant access to technology for work or personal reasons, consider your ability to disconnect for periods.
