Restart Retreat
Restart Retreat
A week to build resilience and recalibrate your nervous system.
You’re not broken — you’re just exhausted and craving connection. This retreat is designed to help you soften, exhale, and come back to yourself through a restorative rhythm of movement, nourishment, and stillness.
Days are a blend of active morning practice, slow vegan meals, free afternoons, and evening Restorative Yoga, creating space for both solitude and connection. Nestled on an olive farm near the Adriatic Sea, this immersive week offers the rare gift of time — to rest, reflect, and renew.
Led by Lizzie Lasater, international yoga teacher and course creator known for her accessible, alignment-based approach to nervous system healing.
Dates: August 29 – September 5, 2026
Location: Salento, Southern Italy
Cost: $585 deposit + €750–€1,296 for lodging and meals (plus travel)
If you prefer to pay your deposit in Euros, please email us.
A retreat for anyone ready to trade hustle for deep rest and realignment.
Creating space for reflection and creativity:
This retreat offers something rare: space. Without meetings, deadlines, or digital noise, you’ll have time to journal, nap, read, or simply stare at the sky. Spacious, unstructured time lets your nervous system finally unwind, opening room for creativity, clarity, and deep rest.
Community, connection, and silence:
Gather with like-minded yogis to explore the balance of community and solitude. Together we’ll disconnect from digital distractions, share meals, enjoy conversation, and exhale deeply.
Immersed in simple pleasures:
There’s no rush here: only olive trees, warm air, and time to be. The retreat center is nestled in the peaceful setting of an olive farm, where you can spend afternoons reading by the pool. Or, take a taxi to the beach for gelato and a swim in the warm Adriatic Sea.
