Elohee's Registration and Cancellation Policy

What if, for a few days, you didn’t have to be anywhere else?

No rushing from one thing to the next. No meals to plan. No list waiting for you to finish it.

Just three nights tucked into the North Georgia mountains with good food, beautiful surroundings, yoga, sound, meditation, deep rest, laughter, connection—and time that actually feels like yours.

Mountain Stillness was created around something I think we could all use a little more of: space. Space to move your body in a way that feels good. Space to get quiet. Space to wander outside, take a nap, sit with a cup of tea, laugh with new friends, or do absolutely nothing for a while.

We’ll gather for yoga, sound healing, meditation, Yoga Nidra and a few special touches along the way, but there will also be room in our days to simply enjoy where we are. Nothing is mandatory. This is your retreat, too.

We’ll be surrounded by the forests of Elohee, with mountain trails to explore, nourishing meals prepared for us each day, and plenty of places to settle in and stay awhile.

You don’t need to be “good at” yoga. You don’t need meditation practice. And you don’t need to arrive with anything figured out.

Just come as you are.

We’ll take it from there.

Activities Offered

Throughout our time together, we’ll move between shared practices, time in nature, connection, and plenty of space to simply enjoy being at Elohee.

Our retreat may include:

  • Morning meditation surrounded by the forest
  • All-levels yoga and mindful movement
  • Gentle and restorative yoga
  • Sound baths and sound-infused practices
  • iRest® Yoga Nidra and guided meditation
  • The Stillness Walk — a mindful journey through the forest toward Elohee’s waterfall and meditation space
  • Sound in the Forest — where nature and sound become part of the practice
  • The Mountain Pause — a simple invitation you’ll receive when you arrive
  • An optional guided hike through the Elohee property
  • Optional wellness services and treatments
  • Evening fire pit gathering
  • Plenty of time to explore, rest, connect—or simply do nothing at all

All practices are optional. This is your retreat, too. Take part in what speaks to you and leave yourself plenty of room to simply be.
