ABOUT THE RETREAT
We believe that true and lasting transformation is not only possible, but it’s available to all of us. No matter how much you’ve tried to change, or how much opposition you’ve encountered, we’ve found the tools that can help you to rediscover yourself and transform for the better!
Most of us have given a lot of our time, energy, and heart. Balancing all aspects of our life while still finding time to nurture ourselves, can be difficult. Often, it leads to burnout and exhaustion, feeling as if we’ve lost hope, inspiration, and vitality.
This is a specially curated retreat for you to reconnect on a deeper level to yourself through the power of breathwork, sound healing, movement, nature, and adventure. Get yourself out of the day-to-day, nourish your body, mind, and spirit with these powerful practices to reconnect to who you truly are, and get clear on the path you want to take for continual growth and discovery.

YOUR HOSTS
Bella
Sound & Meditation Practitioner
Yoga Teacher, Wellness Educator
After hitting textbook burnout, Isabella cultivated a steady yoga practice to help her feel more connected to her body and mind, however, this feeling only lasted while on the mat. Recommendations to explore meditation to relieve the stress of leadership and graduate school led to frustrated moments and the belief that meditation just wasn’t possible for her.
A chance experience at a music festival with a sound bath finally helped Isabella connect to the space within and understand what meditation feels like.
As a sound healer and yoga teacher, Isabella focuses on creating accessible and inclusive experiences for individuals to connect to themselves and one another through movement and sound baths. She deeply believes in the power of meditation and yoga to cultivate a healthy dialogue with the inner being, tuning inward to connect with the mind, soul, and body. Leaning on 16 years of experience in K-12 education as a teacher and administrator coaching adult learners, she creates a safe space for individuals from all walks of life to explore and align to their truest, most beautiful selves.

Testimonials
Bella and Jay are the best team. They both have so much love and compassion in their work. It is awesome to see people take so much pride in their work.
- Breath and Sound participant, April 2023
Thank you for the amazing and seamlessly curated event. I was expecting some simple breathwork; however, I experienced a beautifully enlightening experience--very psychedelic at points but in a healing way. The experience was totally unexpected and I had no idea my body was capable of this (and really needed it).
- Breath and Sound participant, November 2022
Bella is very calming and present, warm welcoming, and positive vibes. Her gentle spirit is welcoming and beautiful. When she played the sound bowls, I found it was like a symphony of vibration. I was able to lift my vibration and receive the clearing of blocked energy. I really enjoyed my time being present with Bella. She is lovely inside and out.
- Stepping Into Your Life’s Vision Retreat participant, March 2022
Jay led the breathwork, meditation, hypnosis, and journaling. His ability to be emotionally in tune with our emotional energy was incredible. Holding the space for us to release and align ourselves with deep love. He was kind, loving, and deeply interested in creating an experience that allowed us to see and feel our full potential. He is a wonderful soul!
- Stepping Into Your Life’s Vision Retreat participant, October 2022
Jay's style of breathwork has helped make me a happier and more relaxed person. Breathwork has allowed me to deepen my meditation, prayer, and yoga practice in a very special way. I am so grateful to have met him - thank you Jay for sharing your practice with me!
- Stepping Into Your Life’s Vision Retreat participant, October 2022
