Upon arrival at Saint Kitts Basseterre Airport (SKB) or Nevis Airport (NEV) you will be transported to your accommodation on the island of Nevis (inclusive). Amanda, your local host and guide, will communicate with you early on to determine your intentions and curate a schedule that fits your needs.
Throughout your stay, you will enjoy 3 private wellness sessions with Amanda. The first is a customized Yoga/Meditation class, which can be private or shared with your retreat companions. The second is Thai Yoga Massage, a deeply relaxing and restorative massage involving assisted stretches, deep pressure, and energy cleansing. The third is a therapeutic MyoYin session, which aims to relieve long-held tension patterns and enhance vitality with a unique fusion of Yin Yoga, Myofascial Release, Breathwork, and Self-Massage techniques.
One day will be set aside for Amanda to take you on an island adventure that offers a perfect mixture of culture, nature, and wellness! The day starts with a Mindfulness Rainforest/Waterfall Hike. Inspired by the words of the revered Zen Buddhist monk Thich Nhat Hanh, you will be guided to approach this hike as a mindfulness meditation, inspiring a deep inner awareness and communion with nature. After a moderate trek through the cool, lush rainforest, you can take a plunge in a refreshing waterfall pool. Afterwards we will take a scenic drive through the Nevis countryside and stop for a therapeutic dip in the historical Volcanic Hot Springs in Charlestown. Finally, we end our day at Pinneys Beach, and enjoy the sunset while nourishing our bodies with Traditional Rastafarian "Ital" Food. Ital is organic, vegan, made with only the freshest ingredients that come directly from the earth, and cooked in a clay "yabba" pot over an open fire and served in a calabash (tropical gourd) bowl with a coconut spoon.
Under Amanda's fun and reliable guidance you will have the opportunity to experience Nevis through a colorful local lens and feel more like a visiting friend rather than a tourist.
Amanda is also an experienced Master Scuba Diver Trainer and can facilitate Scuba diving lessons, charters, and specialty courses, such as the PADI Yoga Diver course.
Because this is a personal retreat, you are in control of how you spend your time on the island. Amanda is happy to offer suggestions for additional activities.
The minimum length of stay is 4 nights, however you can customize your length of stay and take advantage of special accommodation rates.
