Return to Nature: 
A Cebu Experience

The Details

About the Retreat

The retreat that started it all.

​

The first retreat I organized was in Cebu, created to give my students some breathing room. I noticed that most of them came to class exhausted from their daily routines, bored by the monotony of work, and often carrying emotional baggage from stressful days.

​

I wanted to hold space for them to decompress, rest, and take a break. The idea for Cebu came to me while I was on holiday there. Nothing beats being semi-isolated in a place surrounded by nature—after all, nature is life itself.

​

In Cebu, we experience the abundance of what nature has to offer, white powdery sand beaches, majestic mountains, cascading waterfalls, and even encounters with the famous gentle giants, the whale sharks. Over five days, we’ll stay at a beautiful boutique resort, offering the perfect space to rest, meditate, nourish the body, practice mindfulness, and even indulge in some pampering.
