A SAFE SPACE FOR SOLO TRAVELERS

When we are facing a major transition or on the cusp of a personal breakthrough, we need the dedicated time and a safe space away from our daily routines to find our way back to ourselves again.

At these life inflection points, we often need customized, targeted support to heal our old nagging traumas and find new ways to navigate the changes ahead.

For many travelers, especially female travelers like me, it can be a challenge to feel safe alone in a new place. And yet, a change of context is what’s needed to reset, reboot, and recalibrate our lives.

That’s why we do everything we can to make sure you land softly when you come to Hestia. We schedule a call with you before coming to understand your needs for your custom solo retreat. We have a special way to greet you when you arrive and prioritize creating a safe, cozy home for you. We check in with your regularly to help you get settled (if you need it).

Imagine having your own support team of highly skilled healers and coaches in nature. We tailor each of our add-on services and the experiential flow of your retreat week to accelerate your personal healing, grounding and transformation on the land.

It is safe to be alone together at Hestia. We are here to curate a custom solo retreat just for you!

WITH LOVE,

BELINDA

HESTIA CO-FOUNDER, LAND STEWARD & COMMUNITY WEAVER

WHAT WILL IT FEEL LIKE?

Imagine yourself immersed in nature just resting, daydreaming and stargazing for a week or even longer. Give yourself permission to shift from “doing” to “being”. Bring silence to your planning mind and allow your intuitive spirit to guide you back home to yourself.

Reset every day with a refreshing cold plunge in our creek. Daydream on a hammock and reimagine what’s possible in your life. Quench your thirst with our sweet alkaline well water. Sleep in an intentionally attuned space for deep, restorative rest. Play, create, and vision whenever the inspiration strikes. Nourish yourself on sacred land that’s attuned for deep rejuvenation and inner transformation.

At the beginning of your nature sabbatical, you will be greeted with a guided group chakra walk to connect with the healing spots and power centers on our land. You will receive journaling pages and a nature-inspired card deck to help clarify your intentions and capture the breadcrumbs that come your way.

Need an extra boost to clarify and fortify your body, mind, heart and spirit? Access our world class onsite healers and guides to restore your full vitality. For deeper guidance and inspiration, you can reserve pre and post-retreat coaching sessions with Hestia’s co-founder, Belinda Liu.

Before you depart, we will guide you through a ritual to let go of what no longer serves you, so you can create space for what matters most in your life when you return.

REVIEWSFROM OUR GUESTS

SCOTT G.

When I visited Hestia in the spring of 23 from Central Florida I considered it a blessing that this sacred land was allowing me to stay there. I had just reached a point on my spiritual journey where I felt stuck and alone. I have healed so much on my own but there were things I couldn’t heal and I needed help. Belinda and Peter were very kind and conscious land stewards that started me on a journey to self discovery.

My Mongolian yurt was by far the coolest place I have ever stayed  and it had a welcoming energy that made it feel like home. The chakra points were perfectly laid out and they help me achieve a deeper realization into my stuck emotions and questions.

The breathtaking land and spirits at Hestia responded to my gratitude on such a deep level that they responded back and showed me exactly what I needed to see. Hestia has changed my life forever and helped me discover my true self.

I am forever grateful
