The Art of Becoming: A New Year’s Ritual Retreat
Step Into 2026 with Clarity and Grace with Meditation Teacher Gemma Gambee Lewis
Welcome the new year with an overnight wellness experience designed for reflection, renewal, and intentional creation. We begin on December 31st with an elegant dinner*, followed by a fire ceremony and guided journaling to release what no longer serves. Afterward, gather indoors for fireside connections over refreshing mocktails.
On January 1st, the morning unfolds with a grounding meditation, intention setting, and vision creation for a vibrant 2026. A refreshing nature walk and time in either the infrared or traditional sauna offer a restorative close. Guests depart feeling nourished and centered, accompanied by a delightful, filling lunch crafted to support body, mind, and soul.
