sicily retreat
Sacred becoming
June 6-12, 2027
Join us for 7 Days and 6 Nights in
sicily, italy
A Wild Heart Retreat steeped in beauty, presence, and the sweetness of living slowly.
Time stretches. Meals linger. Sun warms the skin. The sea draws you in.
And somewhere between the olive groves, golden light, and the deep exhale of being far from the pull of your daily life… you begin to return to yourself.
This is a space for those ready to loosen their grip, listen more deeply, and move through life in a way that feels more honest, more embodied, more alive.
We’ll gather in the Sicily for a week of practice, nourishment, connection, and spaciousness.
A place to soften.
A place to awaken.
A place to let beauty work on you.
There’s a saying in Italy: dolce far niente. It means, the sweetness of doing nothing… and everything.
And we plan to fully embody this wisdom.
Days unfold beneath endless blue skies, where every turn invites you to linger a little longer. Mornings begin slowly. Afternoons disappear into the sea. Evenings gather us around long tables beneath a sky full of stars.
Jumping into the Mediterranean. Espresso in little piazzas. The afternoon you we took the wrong turn and found our favorite little street in Sicily. Music drifting through dinner as another bottle of wine finds its way to the table. Laughter that lingers long after dessert.
Somewhere along the way, new friends begin to feel like old ones, the days begin to blur in the most beautiful way, and the simplest moments become the ones you carry home.
The Sacred Becoming is an invitation into presence, pleasure, and permission.
Permission to move slowly.
To be held by beauty.
To reconnect with your body, your joy, and the quiet knowing within you.
To laugh often. To wander freely. To savor deeply. To remember how good life can feel when there is space to truly live it.
In the heartbeat of practice.
In the spaciousness of unscheduled moments.
In conversations beneath the stars.
In mornings that unfold without hurry.
In afternoons spent by the sea.
In laughter around the dinner table.
In the aliveness of it all.
Little by little, something begins to shift.
Your shoulders soften.
Your breath deepens.
Your heart feels a little lighter.
And before you know it, you're no longer counting the days... you're fully inside them.
There is a kind of medicine in this.
In being here. In being together. In allowing.
And over time, something begins to integrate gently, naturally, without force.
You feel it in your body.
In your breath.
In the way you move through your day.
A little more grounded.
A little more open.
A little more you.

Travel Insurance/ cancellation Policy
Travel insurance is required. Please note that most policies purchased more than 14 days following your initial trip deposit will not cover pre-existing conditions, so we encourage you to purchase your policy with that window in mind.
Wild Heart Yoga is not responsible for unforeseen personal circumstances, including but not limited to sickness, medical emergencies, family issues, personal schedule changes, etc. There are several Trip insurance plans out there that cover everything from medical reasons (the most common reason for cancellation), weather, laid off from work, and even “cancel for any reason” policies. Wild Heart Yoga is not an insurance provider so policies must be sourced individually.
Due to the extensive planning and financial commitments required for this international retreat, our cancellation policy for Bali differs from our other retreats. We understand that unforeseen circumstances may arise, but because this experience involves significant upfront costs, we must adhere to the following policy:
Deposits are non-refundable and non-transferable upon payment. Your deposit secures your spot and allows us to make the necessary arrangements on your behalf.
The remaining balance will be split into three equal payments due on:
August 1, 2025
November 1, 2025
March 1, 2026
Each balance payment is non-refundable once processed. This means that if you need to cancel after making any of these payments, that portion of your retreat cost will not be refunded.
Cancellations made within 111 days of the retreat start date (after March 1, 2026): No refunds or transfers will be issued.
