Sanctuary & Sankalpa: A New Year’s Eve Wellness Retreat

Choose Clarity Over Chaos: A Mindful Way to Step into the New Year.

Tired of the pressure and exhaustion of traditional New Year’s Eve celebrations? This year, choose yourself. Join us for five hours of deep rest, mindful release, and powerful intention-setting designed to honour your body and set a conscious, peaceful tone for the year ahead.

Leave the noise behind and join our conscious, candlelit sanctuary.

Your Journey: Sanctuary & Sankalpa

This retreat is a powerful, focused journey of releasing the past year and mindfully setting your Sankalpa (a heartfelt, present-tense intention) for the year ahead. We’ve crafted a seamless flow between our cosy Downstairs Sanctuary and the expansive Upstairs Yoga Studio.

New Year’s Eve: A Night of Mindful Renewal

Time: 4:00 PM – 9:00 PM

This evening is a dedicated journey to release the past and mindfully set a clear, positive intention for the year ahead. Get ready to ditch the digital noise and sink into deep, soul-level rest and clarity.

4:00 PM – 5:00 PM: Welcome & Release Ritual

(Downstairs)

A Digital Detox begins the moment you arrive. We open the evening with a powerful ‘Burning Bowl’ Ceremony. This ritual helps you mindfully write down and physically release the old habits, limiting energy, or past regrets you are ready to leave behind.

5:00 PM – 6:00 PM: Restorative Yin & Sound Bath

(Upstairs Studio)

Sink into profound rest. This session features gentle Yin and Restorative Yoga poses designed to soothe the nervous system. The experience concludes with an immersive Sound Bath (using singing bowls and gongs) during Savasana for therapeutic, deep relaxation.

6:00 PM – 7:00 PM: Nourishing Feast & Connection

(Downstairs)

A moment of delicious, healthy indulgence. Take your time to enjoy our gourmet, plant-forward meal and high-quality Mocktails/conscious beverages in a cozy, unhurried atmosphere. This intentional meal fuels your body for the mindful work ahead.

7:00 PM – 8:00 PM: Sankalpa (Intention) Workshop

(Upstairs Studio)

Find your guiding light. This dedicated, guided workshop focuses on setting intentions that truly stick. You will receive Journaling Prompts to help you discover your single, powerful intention for the year, concluding with a Metta Meditation (loving-kindness) to solidify your purpose.

 

8:00 PM – 9:00 PM: Moving Forward Flow & Closing Ritual

(Upstairs Studio)

8:00 PM – 9:00 PM: Cacao, Breathwork & Ecstatic Dance

 

(Upstairs Studio)

Celebrate your Intention. We begin with a Cacao Ceremony to open the heart, followed by Conscious Connected Breathwork to energize the body. We then transition into Ecstatic Dance—a final hour of free, conscious, connected movement to joyfully embody your new intention and welcome the New Year with clarity and passion.

The Conscious Celebration

This retreat is designed as The Anti-Party: a high-value experience focused on deep connection, not distraction.

Conscious Eating & Drinking

We elevate the New Year’s Eve experience with healthy, high-quality nourishment:

  • The Feast: A beautiful, gourmet plant-forward meal designed to sustain and delight without the heaviness of typical celebration food.
  • Conscious Cocktails: Enjoy sophisticated, house-made Mocktails (think sparkling cranberry and rosemary or spiced citrus punch) and warm herbal teas throughout the evening.

The Sanctuary Space

We utilise our unique two-floor setup to create a mindful flow:

  • Upstairs: Dedicated to deep Movement, Sound, and Reflection. The open studio space maximizes energy for intentional work.
  • Downstairs: Dedicated to Grounding, Ritual, and Connection. The cozy eating area fosters community and supports the release ceremony.

Final Touches: Carry the Intention Home

As a thank you for dedicating your New Year’s Eve to yourself, you will receive a thoughtful parting gift – a small, tangible item to help you maintain your Sankalpa and continue your self-care practice in the first weeks of the new year.

This is a premium, deeply restorative event. Spaces are limited to ensure an intimate and powerful experience.
