Joshua Tree Retreat 2025
A Private Retreat in Joshua Tree
April 2–6, 2025
This retreat is all about you: your journey and your growth. It offers the opportunity to align with your truest self, evolve through intentional practice and elevate your experience of life.
Step into the stillness of the desert and experience the unparalleled beauty of Joshua Tree. Every aspect of this five-day, four-night retreat has been carefully curated to create a deeply personal and meaningful experience. From the elegance of your accommodations to the thoughtfully designed practices and moments in nature, this retreat invites you to pause, reflect, and reconnect in an environment that supports and celebrates you.
Hosted by Kasia, this retreat is set on a private 20-acre estate, featuring a 7,000-square-foot modern architectural estate. Located at the edge of Joshua Tree National Park, the estate offers an inspiring blend of luxury and natural beauty.
This retreat offers a week of thoughtful experiences and quiet renewal set against the stunning backdrop of Joshua Tree. We will begin with a Crescent Moon Ceremony under the desert sky, a perfect moment to set intentions as the waxing moon symbolizes growth and limitless potential. Each day will start with morning movement and breathwork to energize and centre you, and ends with a calming nighttime sound bath to guide you into restful sleep.
Over the course of the retreat, two thoughtfully planned excursions will take you beyond the retreat grounds: a visit to the renowned Integratron Sound Bath Capsule for its unique sound bath experience and an exploration of the iconic Joshua Tree National Park, complete with a photoshoot to capture the moment. Another afternoon will be reserved for a sacred ceremony on the property, offering a deeper connection to the practices and surroundings.
Daily circles create space for reflection and connection, while personal time allows you to hike, journal, or simply relax in serene surroundings.
Fresh, plant-based meals will feature daily-crafted lunch and dinner, with the kitchen stocked with breakfast options and snacks for you to enjoy at your convenience.
Daily Practices include guided meditations, sound healing sessions, breathwork, shamanic journey practices, and movement practices tailored to deepen your connection to yourself and the desert.
This retreat has been designed to harmonize purposeful practices with moments of quiet reflection, offering an experience that is both deeply enriching and restorative.
With careful intention, it combines understated luxury and personal exploration, creating a rare opportunity to step back from the demands of daily life and reconnect with what holds true meaning, all within the timeless beauty of the Mojave Desert.
A nourishing balance of luxury, personal attention and inspiration.
