Rejuvenation awaits you!

This therapeutic retreat will be a chance for you to enhance your mental and physical well-being with a week of clean eating, yoga, energy healing and clearing sessions, breathwork, sound healing meditations, healthy eating workshops, and more (Note: the two Sundays of the retreat are your travel days).

Vanuatu is a beautiful, untouched island full of waterfalls, clear blue swimming holes, and abundant organic fruits and vegetables, and this is your opportunity to take time to come here and reconnect with your inner spirit.

Let us help you do a digital detox, switch off, and bring you back into a deep state of rest and equilibrium. You deserve to be celebrated! To take time to invest in yourself, especially in the climate of our world today, which is riddled with fear and anxiety. If you're feeling called to this, know that it's for a specific reason. And you will have the chance to join hands with others who are feeling this call to come together.

Our team is bringing together the best of the best to facilitate momentum that will last far beyond this retreat as you learn what it means to be WILD and FREE. We hope you join us.

In good health,
Laurentine

Kat Finnerty

Kat Finnerty

Kat Finnerty is an author, yoga teacher, pilates and fitness instructor, nutritionist and mother of three who divides her time between Canada, Australia, and Vanuatu.

At 24, Kat was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS) and told she would be in a wheelchair by the time she was 40. Rather than accept this diagnosis, she spent the next decade transforming her mind and body through Buddhism, yoga, meditation, and a holistic approach to health and nutrition. 

Kat is one of the few people on the planet to have cured her MS (out of 2 million MS sufferers worldwide) and is the author of an inspiring memoir, Never Let a Good Disaster go to Waste, and a powerful self-help book, How to Get Over Betrayal in 12 Hours-A Survival Manual for the Soul. Her mission is to help others short-cut their suffering by providing them with the superpowers to completely change their mindset around disasters and adversity and set them firmly on a path towards contentment and happiness.
