RITUAL RETREATS + JESS LEBLANC

OCTOBER 5-12, 2019

A perfectly curated vacation integrating wellness and the best of Croatian culture alongside an incredible group of humans.

Escape your busy day-to-day life and remove any distractions so you can dive deeper into your personal practice and be inspired by growth. Connect to yourself and others who also value growth and be immersed in nature nestled by the sea. You'll be motivated to navigate towards your purpose and you will gain the tools needed for wholehearted embodied living and sustainable changes should you want to make them. As we adventure outward and bask in the culture and beauty of Croatia, you’ll feel compelled to venture inward, making space to slow down and listen to what you truly need.

Enjoy an array of cherished rituals including island hopping, relaxing moments by the pool and soaking in some of the world's most beautiful beaches. Honest and real conversations, workshops and laughs until your belly hurts. Discover an ancient palace and dance to live music under the moonlight, enjoy world class seaside yoga classes, unwind over relaxing massages, walk through picturesque villages, hike to a 16th century monastery and savour beautiful locally sourced seasonal food prepared by our personal chef.

ABOUT BRAC, CROATIA

​If your Mediterranean fantasies feature tranquil days by sapphire waters in the shade of ancient walled towns, Croatia is the place to be. Out of Croatia's 1,244 islands, the island of Brac is especially unique. Brac, often referred to as the Pearl of the Adriatic, is the largest island in Central Dalmatia (the Croatian Coast) and one of the sunniest locations in Europe. The island is adorned with several serene villages with limestone architecture, hilltop vineyards, ancient olive groves and dramatic Adriatic landscapes of steep cliffs, crystal clear waters, and lush pine forests.

​Although Brac is famous for its radiant white limestone, used to build Diocletian’s Palace in Split, the island is most well-known for Zlatni Rat (Golden Horn), named one the Top 10 Most Beautiful Beaches in the World by Conde Nast Traveler. The beach extends like a "Golden Horn" into the Adriatic and has water framing two sides. The shape of the beach takes different forms depending on the wind.

​We will be staying on the southeast side of the island, near the seaside village of Sumartin and the hilltop village of Selca.
