Spaces are intentionally limited to preserve the intimacy of the experience.
Held beneath the energy of the approaching Full Buck Moon, The Homecoming Retreat is an immersive three-hour experience designed to quiet the mind, soften the body and guide you back to yourself.
Set within the peaceful natural surroundings of Reset Wild Spa, this intimate evening weaves together somatic movement, auricular acupuncture, immersive sound therapy, ceremonial cacao and restorative spa rituals — creating space to slow down, reconnect and return to a deeper sense of balance within.
In a world that often pulls us outward — into doing, planning and caring for others — The Homecoming Retreat offers an invitation to pause and turn gently inward.
Whether you come alone, with a friend, or gather a small group together, this is your space to step away from the pace of everyday life, breathe deeply and simply be.
A gentle reminder that sometimes the journey isn't about becoming someone new, but finding your way back home to yourself.
What to Expect
You will be gently guided through a sensory-led evening including:

Workshops
Movement & Sacred Sound is a guided workshop designed to support deep rest, release and reconnection.
Movement & Sacred Sound
Prepare
We begin with gentle, embodied movement and breath-led practice to prepare the body, softening physical tension, settling the nervous system and creating space to receive.
Receive
From here, you are guided into stillness, where sound becomes the primary experience.
A layered sound journey unfolds using instruments such as singing bowls, gong, drum, chimes and subtle tonal elements, alongside moments of voice and silence. The sound is introduced gradually and woven throughout the space, allowing the body and mind to soften into a deeper state of rest.
Return
As the session draws to a close, you are gently guided back into awareness through quiet movement and breath, allowing the body to reawaken gradually. We finish with a simple closing mantra, followed by a small grounding offering to help you return gently to the room.
These workshops are designed as a complete experience, preparing the body, guiding you into stillness, and supporting a calm and considered return.
This workshop is informed by training in sacred sound with Anne Malone of Oasis of Sound, and continues to evolve through the principles of the Alaya Method.
Workshops are held periodically throughout the year.
