A Light-Hearted Retreat for Women
At Ocean Isle Beach, NC
September 11th-14th, 2025
Experience a lighthearted and rejuvenating retreat near the serene coast. Restore your spirit, connect with others, and return refreshed and inspired.
Yoga and Sound Healing
At our retreat, you'll experience two daily sessions plus several guided meditations led by Veda. These sessions blend gentle yoga, yoga nidra, and restorative techniques designed to nurture your body and calm your mind. Start your day with a mindful movement session that gently awakens you, and wind down in the evening with a soothing yoga nidra and sound healing experience. Each practice helps release tension, reconnect you with your natural rhythm, and guide you into deep relaxation. Whether you're new to yoga or a seasoned practitioner, our sessions offer a safe, supportive space to rejuvenate and restore.
Free Time
During free time, the day is yours to explore and unwind. Whether you’re lounging by the pool or soaking in the hot tub, find your moments of peace. Venture out to the beach for a walk, dive into an adventure with kayaking or paddle boarding, or ride bikes along the coast. If you're in the mood for quiet reflection, settle into one of our cozy spaces to journal and recharge. Embrace the freedom to relax, explore, and connect.

REtreat Service Providers
Meet Lisa!
Lisa will be providing Raindrop Harmonics sessions at the retreat. With every session, think of it as an opportunity to rejuvenate your mind and balance your body.
Raindrop is a powerful yet gentle, non-invasive technique that cleanses toxins, supports your immune system, and releases stuck energy. It helps "unlayer" and release both physical and emotional blockages by synergistically blending the power of high-quality essential oils with the vibrations of tuning forks and the uniquely energetic Vitaflex technique ("vitality through the reflexes"). Raindrop brings harmony to all of your body systems, moving you out of "fight or flight" mode and into a state of homeostasis.
Lisa offers her Raindrop sessions through The Pear Tree Wellness Collective in Greensboro, NC. She is certified under CARE (Center for Aromatherapy Research & Education), a Certified Raindrop Technique Specialist, a Licensed Spiritual Health Coach, and a Certified Aromatherapy Coach. For the past four years, she has been supporting women on their wellness journeys, believing in a toxin-free lifestyle and that health is everything we do, say, hear, see, and eat. Raindrop is just one of the many tools available to help restore and maintain balance.
