Join Kelly Smith E-RYT 500, YACEP, author and host of the Mindful in Minutes podcast for a 6-day meditation and mindful movement retreat designed to initiate your own homecoming, a return to the self. During this journey in the land of fire and ice you will take time to relax under the aurora borealis, soothe your body in the natural geothermal waters, and awaken your relationship with your truest self through meditation, breathwork and yoga and true homecoming of the deepest self.

Each morning you will begin your day with a yoga class and meditation practice before you get the opportunity to explore wondrous Iceland. This trip is designed to help you awaken a passion for life, and return to your home within. This retreat is welcome to all, and is suitable for all levels of experience.

Located right in the middle of the Golden Circle, surrounded by rolling hills - the village of Laugarvatn sits on the shore of a charming lake by the same name. 60 minutes from Reykjavik capital and 90 minutes from Keflavik International Airport, the town is an intersection of natural beauty and historical importance. 

From here you can take a short trip to Thingvellir, Gullfoss, Geysir and many other natural wonders close by. Northern lights, geothermal baths, hiking, fishing, river rafting – just name it, you’ll find it here

1. Who can attend this retreat?

Our retreats are for everyone! It doesn't matter what your age, gender, race, weight, height, flexibility and level of experience is - the practice of yoga is for every single being.  New to yoga? We all have to start somewhere and retreats are the perfect space to start and/or grow your practice. Don't worry about how advanced others may be and remember this journey is yours, take all the time and be patient with yourself. If you're new, let us know so we can make sure our teachers are prepped to assist you. 

2. I've never travelled before and I don't have anyone to go with. Can I come alone?

Yes!! Before you go, we are here to guide you and get you prepared as much as possible for this retreat and travel experience. With us, you're never alone! We set up a group chat to communicate with one week prior to the retreat to check in and update each other as you start your travel from where ever you may be. We'll pair you up with a roommate, who will most likely end up being a lifelong friend.  You may come alone, but you'll end up leaving with a community of like minded people who will forever be connected through this experience. 

3. What do I need to pack?

30 days before your retreat, we'll send you a guide of what to pack and bring. 

4. What type of travel insurance do I need and why is it mandatory?

Your insurance will need to cover emergency medical and trip cancellation/interruption. This is to protect you in case of any unforeseen circumstances either before or on your retreat. 

5. Do you offer monthly payment plans?

Yes! Once you've paid the deposit amount, the remainder of your balance can be split and paid by the remaining months left until the full balance is due.  For example, if the total retreat is $2,300 USD and you pay your deposit in November - starting from December to April (5 months) you will pay a monthly fee of $360 USD. If you would like this option, once you've paid your deposit please email us at info@adzentureretreatsyoga.com to set up a payment plan for you.
