DAY 01
Arrival + Blue Lagoon

Upon landing at Keflavík International Airport, you’ll be greeted by your retreat hosts Emily & Azma and promptly transported to the tranquil haven of the Blue Lagoon Spa, where you can unwind and rejuvenate following your journey.

After a few hours of relaxation and making new friends, we’ll make our way to our retreat center. Here, we’ll come together for a warm welcome circle, allowing us to set our intentions. This will be followed by a delightful dinner and a restful night’s sleep. Before bedtime you might be able to catch a glimpse of the Northern Lights!

DAY 02
Grounding + Steam Valley

The start of our initial full day together commences with a morning yoga practice. 

Following a wholesome breakfast, we’ll set out on a morning trek through Reykjadalur Valley, aptly named the Steam Valley, a name that will become evident as the valley unfolds during our hike. Here, you’ll encounter Iceland’s renowned hot springs, bubbling mud pools, and even the opportunity to bathe in a warm river!

In the late afternoon, we’ll gather for the first in a series of workshops. This will be followed by dinner, setting the stage for a restful night’s sleep to prepare us for tomorrow’s adventure.

DAY 03
Golden Circle Tour

After our morning Yoga, the adventure begins!

Our Golden Circle Tour embarks on a captivating circular voyage through the core of Iceland’s Southern Region, pausing at some of the nation’s most iconic destinations. Our journey begins with a leisurely walk through Thingvellir National Park, followed by visits to the Geysir Geothermal area, Gullfoss Waterfall, and a special pause at one of our cherished locations: the remarkable Kerid Crater.

DAY 04
Relaxation + Bathing Ritual

Today, you have the opportunity to unwind right here at our retreat!  After your morning movement, take the day to acquaint yourself with the picturesque Icelandic landscape that surrounds us. Hike through the serene rolling hills in our backyard, enjoy a leisurely lakeside walk, exchange greetings with some of our friendly animal neighbors, or simply kick back and journal in one of the charming corners of our property.

In the afternoon, we’ll reconvene for our second workshop, followed by a relaxing visit to the Laugarvatn Fontana spa next door. We’ll enjoy a traditional Icelandic bathing ritual and for those feeling adventurous, there’s even a chance to take a cold plunge in the lake!

DAY 05
Chasing Waterfalls

Following our morning movement, we’ll embark on an adventure along the captivating South Shore, making stops at Reynisfjara’s stunning black sand beach, the breathtaking Dyrholaey headland, and visits to both Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss Waterfalls. Be ready to be wow’d by the sheer magnitude of these extraordinary natural marvels.

Upon our return to our retreat center, we’ll conduct our last workshop, followed by our last dinner and a closing ceremony to share gratitude for our experience together. 

DAY 06
Until Next Time
