Invitation to Be. A mindfulness retreat for body and soul.


Unlock your mind. Refresh your body. Renew your spirit.

Join us for a weekend immersion in all things mindful and restorative set within the fall splendor of Harbor Country, Michigan.

Whether it’s your first introduction to mindfulness or part of your ongoing practice, you’ll come away refreshed and reenergized with greater clarity, a renewed sense of purpose and balance, and an overall feeling of well-being.

Led by Ashley Nelson with six hand-picked collaborators, this experience includes:

  • Daily yoga—Yin and Vinyasa Flow

  • Multiple daily meditations—breath, body scan, compassion-metta, walking, and open awareness

  • Inspiring learning sessions on such topics as the science of happiness, mindfulness as a daily practice, mindful leadership, and the neuroscience of mindfulness and stress

  • A special breathing workshop to increase oxygen flow for better health and fitness

  • Noble silence—extended periods of intentional quiet

  • On-site, professional massage (included in registration)

  • Individualized acupuncture session (optional, additional fee)

  • Forest bathing—expert-led, in-body experience inspired by the science of nature

  • SoulCollage®—a playful, profound, creative insights workshop

Immerse yourself in the total experience.
