Take a pause from everyday life to be held — by presence, by meaningful connection, and by each other.
Held Together is a day retreat thoughtfully designed to help couples unwind, reconnect, and strengthen their bond through simple, grounding practices. Set in a peaceful waterside location, you’ll be gently guided through an afternoon and evening of mindful movement, nurturing connection, shared reflection, and calming sound — all intended to relax the body, quiet the mind, and bring you closer to one another.
This is a rare and nourishing experience — a chance to slow down, spend intentional time together, and rediscover the warmth and joy at the Heart of your relationship.

• Couple Yoga & Essential Oils – Soft partner movement paired with calming heart opening aromas to support ease and connection.
• Connection Practices – Thoughtfully guided exercises to deepen presence and strengthen your bond.
• Guided Couple Meditation – A quiet moment of shared stillness to center, ground, and attune with one another on a deeper level.
