SPRING WELLNESS RETREATS

THE QUIET WITHIN: A COASTAL RESET

Who This Spring Retreat Is For

This retreat is for those who are feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, or disconnected from themselves.
For those who have been giving, doing, and carrying a lot… and are ready to pause.
It’s for people who are seeking rest, clarity, and a deeper connection to themselves through nature, reflection, and meaningful experiences.

If you’re ready to slow down, reset, and step into a new season of growth and renewal — this space is for you.

JUNE 5TH -JUNE 8th 2026

JOIN US FOR AT MINETTE BAY A SPECIAL POP-UP WELLNESS RETREAT

REBIRTH AND RENEWAL

☀️

REBIRTH AND RENEWAL ☀️

There is something different about the North Coast.
The air feels deeper. The land feels older. The energy… quieter.

Join Raya Karin for a pop-up wellness retreat at Minette Bay, where the ocean meets the mountains, and the forest gently holds you.

This is a sacred pause—a space outside of your everyday life where you can put everything down and simply be.
Over four days and three nights, you will be guided through a deeply nourishing and intuitive experience rooted in nature, connection, and inner healing.

This retreat is intentionally slow, spacious, and intimate.

Here, you are invited to rest…
to release…
to reconnect…
and to remember the version of you that exists beneath the noise.

This is your return to the wild within.

THE FEELING

There is a quiet within you.
A place beneath the noise… beneath the pressure… beneath the constant doing.

And for many of us, we’ve drifted far from it.

Life has become full. Loud. Demanding.
And somewhere along the way, we forgot what it feels like to truly rest.

You don’t need another push.
You don’t need to keep going.

You need space.

Space to breathe.
Space to soften.
Space to simply be.

THIS RETREAT IS PERFECT FOR YOU IF…

  • You have been holding a lot—caring for others, managing responsibilities, and feeling emotionally or physically exhausted

  • You feel overwhelmed, overstimulated, or disconnected from yourself

  • You are craving quiet, space, and a chance to truly rest

  • You long to step away from the noise and reconnect with your inner calm

  • You feel called to nature as a place of healing and grounding

  • You are ready to gently release what you’ve been carrying

  • You desire meaningful, soulful, in-person connections with like-minded people

  • You are open to slowing down and allowing yourself to receive

THIS RETREAT MAY NOT BE THE RIGHT FIT FOR EVERYONE… AND THAT IS IMPORTANT TO HONOUR.

  • You are looking for a fast-paced, highly scheduled retreat with back-to-back activities

  • You prefer a more social, high-energy, or party-style environment

  • You are not open to quiet, reflection, or spending time in nature

  • You are not ready to slow down or step away from constant doing

  • You are seeking clinical therapy, crisis support, or immediate problem-solving

**This retreat is designed as a gentle, supportive space for rest, reflection, and reconnection.

It works best for those who feel called to slow down, soften, and explore their inner world in a calm, nature-based setting.

ABOUT YOUR FACILITATORS

MEET RAYA, JANIE & MELODY

JANIE PELLETIER

As a Certified Yoga Teacher & Nutrition Coach, my mission is to guide people in understanding how their physical and emotional digestions are interconnected. The gut-brain connection is a well-known concept but understanding how it relates to our daily life may become a complex quest of ups and downs. The path towards healing may require introspection, and guidance through this journey may be highly beneficial.

​Mindfulness practice, breathing techniques, yoga, and time in nature are modalities I use to better understand your unique needs and tailor an action plan suited for you.

I have no interest in offering you a quick fix or recommending a diet that would make you believe that I know better than you what your body and soul truly need.

What I strive for is to share important information and strategies with you on how to find what works best for you. I will share valuable, science-based information and my personal experience. In order to be an active contributor to your healing protocol, you are invited to question and trust your intuition in order for you to open your mind and empower yourself to make lasting, sustainable changes... that is the transformation.

MELODY SAUL

QiGong

Melody has been studying and practicing Qigong for the last year and a half, and is in the process of acquiring her certification for Qigong Teacher.

QiGong is a part of Traditional Chinese Medicine. It is a practice of aligning breath with slow, fluid movement and body awareness. It is sometimes described as a "moving meditation". Qigong's movements and flows mimic nature to bring a balance of Qi (life force energy) to the body for health and vitality.

Oracle Card Reading

Ever wonder what knowledge the Universe has for you? Oracle Cards are a beautiful way to receive Intuitively Channeled messages of Divine Guidance relevant to your journey of learning and healing.

1-1 Intuitive Reading

Powerful Messages channeled specifically for you using a variety of processes bringing you an unforgettable experience for the purpose of understanding. Big shifts can happen from the awareness of a new or different perspective

RAYA KARIN

INTUITIVE GUIDED | NATURE - INSPIRED | WELLNESS PRACTITIONOR | RETREAT HOST

Raya guides men & women through seasons of transition, healing, and remembering — offering grounded, intuitive, and nature-centred support for those seeking clarity, renewal, and a deeper connection to themselves.

Her work is for women who have carried much, lived deeply, and are ready to soften their grip on survival and step into a more aligned, nourishing way of being.

If you are navigating burnout, grief, change, or an inner call toward something more meaningful, you are welcome here.

Raya’s path into this work has been shaped by lived experience, decades of professional practice, and a deep respect for the intelligence of the human spirit.

For nearly thirty years, she has worked alongside individuals facing trauma, grief, loss, anxiety, depression, and profound life transitions. Through this work, having witnessed both the fragility and extraordinary resilience that live within us, and the essential need for spaces that honour the whole person: mind, body, and soul.

Alongside her professional journey, her own healing unfolded in relationship with nature, intuition, and the quiet wisdom that emerges when we slow down enough to listen. Over time, it became clear that healing does not thrive in urgency or pressure — it unfolds through presence, safety, and connection.

This understanding led Raya to step beyond traditional clinical environments and create spaces where healing is allowed to move at its own pace, guided by the rhythms of nature and the inner knowing of each individual.
