Overwhelmed, tired, or feeling disconnected?
This is your place to slow down and come back to yourself.
A 5-day retreat to return to nature, remember where you came from, and reconnect with who you are.
📍 Johnson’s Landing Retreat Center
🗓 August 27–31, 2026
Small group. Intimate setting. Limited spaces.
Slow down. Breathe deeply. Let your body rest and your spirit be replenished by the mountains, forest, and water.
This Retreat Is For You If You…
You’ve been feeling overwhelmed, tired, or a little disconnected from yourself.
You’re functioning on the outside, but internally you feel stretched or depleted.
You’re craving time in nature where you can actually breathe and reset your nervous system.
You want to get out of your head and back into your body… and begin listening to what it’s been trying to tell you.
You feel a quiet pull to reconnect—with your roots, your rhythm, your inner knowing.
You’re ready to be supported—physically, emotionally, and mentally - without needing to hold it all together.
If something in you said yes….trust that.

Ways to Save
Feeling like this is out of budget for you? How about we give you a few ways you can save?
1. Staying Off Site - Most participants enjoy staying on site for the best experience, but at times accommodations can be costly and out of budget. In the Kootenays there are ways to stay off site and save some money. This option is available if you purchase the Retreat Only Ticket with no accommodations. This can save you between $150-$400 dollars off the retreat price.
2. Opt-out of the Medicine Drum Session - You can choose to opt out of the Medicine Drum Session and that will save you $300. If you do choose this, then please note that you will have a full day to just enjoy the Kootenay's on your own time and own schedule. You are free to drive and enjoy some scenery (your own transportation is needed) or just hang around the retreat center and enjoy the peace and tranquility it provides. When checking out use Coupon Code DRUM300 and you will get $300 off your retreat ticket.
3. Opt-out of Meals and Bring Your Own - Here is one more option that can save you a bit of money but requires some initial prep before you come. There will be a shared fridge on-site that you can put your own meals in to. This option will require you to ensure you have all your meals for the 5 days but for some this option is something they would like. Please note the fridge is shared with all participants so space may be limited as well. When checking out use coupon code MEAL357 and you will get $357 off your retreat ticket.
PLEASE NOTE: You can only utilize one coupon at a time at checkout.
4. Ultimate Savings - If by chance, you want the ultimate savings of both opting out of the drum session and meals please use the code below. This will take $657 off your total retreat cost.
(There is no mark-up of either one of these expenses. We are simple passing the cost onto you and letting you decide what fits you best).
Code to Use to Opt out of Drum Session and Meals: SAVE657
Shuttle to the Retreat
THRUbodymindbreath will be partnering with a local charter bus service from Kaslo, British Columbia. The charter will be utilized during our retreat but also does have services from Vancouver, Kelowna, and if demand is high Calgary (and all stops in between)
So how do I book the shuttle?
Once you are done registering and paying for the retreat, you again will be prompted to choose to request the shuttle.
If you miss this prompt, no worries, a follow up email will be sent to you where you can choose to request the shuttle. The shuttle service will be by demand only and will be booked directly with the charter service.

What Does the Itinery Look Like
The schedule is intentionally flexible to honor weather, energy, and the needs of the group.
Arrival anytime after 1:00pm
Step onto the land and let yourself arrive. Check in, settle into your space, and take a moment to breathe in the serenity of the surroundings. Enjoy some free time to wander, explore, and connect with the energy of the land.
As the sun begins to settle, gather in the lodge for a nourishing supper, sharing the first moments of community and connection.
The evening unfolds with our Opening Ceremony—immerse yourself in forest bathing, set heartfelt intentions, honor the land and your own spirit, and experience the cleansing warmth of the sweat lodge.
Finally, surrender to the night and the crisp mountain air, resting deeply to awaken refreshed and ready for a full weekend of transformation, connection, and renewal.
We welcome the morning together with gentle movement and conscious breath, awakening body and spirit to a new day in the mountains. After gathering in the lodge for a nourishing breakfast, the group lovingly divides, each stepping into their own path of discovery and experience.
The Medicine Drum Journey:
One group remains at the lodge, dedicating the day to crafting their own 16” Medicine Drum. Guided by intention and meaning in every step, participants choose and personalize their hoop and hide before weaving their drum by hand. Midway through the day, this group will pause to move, release, and re-energize through an uplifting African Dance session with Masani—clearing stagnant energy and opening the body for deeper creative expression—before returning to complete their drum and personalize their drumstick.
Excursions & Exploration:
The second group ventures outward to embrace the wild beauty of the region. Together, they explore hidden caves, wander the charming village of Kaslo for local shopping, and take in the surrounding mountain landscape. The day concludes with a restorative soak in the healing waters of the hot springs, allowing warmth and mineral-rich pools to relax muscles and calm the nervous system.
As evening arrives, all paths lead back to the lodge where we reunite for a shared supper, reconnecting as one community. The night then unfolds with spacious free time—an opportunity to journal, reflect, explore the land, enjoy the sauna, or book an optional body treatment or tea leaf reading. Cradled by crisp mountain air and the quiet rhythm of nature, we settle in for a deeply restful sleep, ready to continue our journey of coming home to ourselves.
We welcome the day with gentle somatic movement, inviting the body to soften, awaken, and listen from within. Together, we enter a sacred labyrinth ceremony—a walking meditation of reflection and intention—followed by a heartfelt group sharing circle to witness and be witnessed.
Once grounded in connection, the group divides once more for a day of experience and exploration. Those who have not yet done so will enter the sacred process of Medicine Drum creation at the lodge, guided by intention and presence in every step. During the day, this group will also pause to move, release, and reawaken their creative energy through an invigorating African Dance session with Masani—clearing the body, lifting the spirit, and opening the pathway for deeper expression as they complete their drums.
The second group ventures outward to explore hidden caves and wander through the charm of Kaslo and surrounding areas, before settling into the restorative embrace of the hot springs. There, warm mineral waters soothe muscles, calm the nervous system, and offer space for reflection amidst the beauty of the mountains.
As the day draws to a close, we return to the lodge to enjoy an evening of nourishing, nutritious food, live music, and the felt heartbeat and soul of the area. Surrounded by community, rhythm, and mountain air, we gather in celebration and connection—allowing the day’s experiences to weave together before surrendering to deep rest beneath the cedars and the quiet night sky.
We greet the morning immersed in the living presence of the forest. Through forest bathing, song, meditation, and gentle movement, we awaken our senses and align with the rhythm of the land. Afterward, we gather in the lodge to share a nourishing breakfast, preparing for a day of nature’s wonder and discovery.
Our journey begins at a beloved local viewing area, where we witness one of nature’s most powerful cycles—the salmon spawning. As we spend time along the water, the land often reveals more than expected, offering moments of wildlife, stillness, and quiet awe.
From there, we ascend into the mountains where we learn the art of rock hounding and discover our own crystals hidden within the earth. With time to explore, dig, and connect to the mountain’s ancient energy, each stone becomes a personal reminder of the day’s experience.
Surrounded by mountains, water and ancient trees we then gather in this remote and powerful land for a transformative 9D breathwork session, breathing deeply with the land and sky as our sanctuary.
With bodies and spirits awakened, we head to one of the region’s favorite local eateries to enjoy a nourishing dinner and taste the flavors of the Kootenays.
The evening continues at the Kootenay House of Healing, where we are immersed in a deeply restorative gong sound session—one of the region’s treasured healing experiences.
Feeling transformed, nourished, and energized—grounded by a mountain crystal and integrated through the power of sound and breath—we return to Johnson’s Landing. Beneath the stars and cradled in the arms of the mountains, we settle into a well-deserved rest, allowing the day’s magic to fully integrate in peaceful sleep.
We awaken gently into our final morning, sharing food, quiet reflection, and unhurried time to pack, prepare, and begin the transition home. The pace is spacious and intentional, allowing you to honor all that has shifted, opened, and awakened within you over the weekend.
Before departing, we gather together one last time for a special Closing Ceremony. Through reflection, a sharing circle, and intentional honoring, we acknowledge all that has been gathered, learned, experienced, released, reclaimed, and remembered. This sacred space supports the integration of your journey—helping you carry its wisdom forward into your daily life.
For this experience is not meant to be left behind. It is a doorway—an invitation to live more fully, more authentically, and more aligned with your true nature. May you return home feeling nourished, empowered, and open—living as a blessing to yourself and to all those whose lives you touch.
Held by the mountains, the land, and the connections we have shared, you depart not as you arrived—but as a more grounded, awakened expression of your fullest self.
