7-Day Reflect & Connect Yoga & Mindfulness Retreat: Hoi An, Vietnam

Reflect & Connect: A quiet pause for women who have been holding it all together.

There comes a moment when powering through no longer works.

You may look fine on the outside – capable, responsible, accomplished – yet inside you feel tired, overstimulated, or quietly disconnected from yourself. Perhaps you’re navigating a career shift, the end (or beginning) of a chapter, recovery from burnout, or simply the realisation that life is moving quickly and you’d like to meet it more consciously.

Our Reflect & Connect Retreat offers you something rare: time, space, and support to slow down and come home to yourself – held in a warm, intimate community of women who understand exactly where you are.

Set among the rice fields and rivers of Hoi An, Vietnam, this retreat blends gentle yoga, mindfulness, somatic practices, and soulful cultural experiences to help you reset your nervous system, reconnect with your body, and rediscover what truly nourishes you.

WHO IT’S FOR:

This retreat is for you if:

* You feel mentally busy, emotionally stretched, or physically tired
* You’re in a transition – personal, professional, hormonal, or spiritual
* You want yoga that’s accessible, grounding, and non-performative
* You’re craving meaningful connections and a supportive environment
* You’d love to travel somewhere beautiful, soulful, and culturally rich – without needing to rush

Psst… All yoga levels are welcome. No flexibility or prior experience required.

THE EXPERIENCE

Each day unfolds slowly and intentionally, allowing plenty of space for rest, reflection, and choice.

Mornings begin with gentle flow yoga, meditation, and breathwork in a bamboo shala overlooking the Co Co River – practices designed to meet you exactly where you are.

Afternoons are spacious: plenty of free time, with optional workshops. You might:

* Journal by the pool
* Join a mindfulness or creativity workshop
* Cycle through emerald rice fields
* Explore the lantern‑lit Old Town
* Book a massage or simply rest in the garden

Evenings invite you inward with yin yoga, yoga nidra, sound healing, and nourishing shared meals – grounding your nervous system and deepening connection.

This is not a packed schedule. It’s a rhythm that supports integration, ease, and genuine transformation.

WHAT MAKES THIS RETREAT DIFFERENT:

Many retreats focus on doing more.

This one is about being just as you are – safely, slowly, and without expectation.

You’ll be guided using practices informed by mindfulness‑based stress reduction, somatic awareness, and nervous‑system regulation, rather than trends or performative spirituality.

You’ll leave not only feeling rested, but with practical tools you can take home – so the calm you cultivate here can continue long after the retreat ends.
