ChoZen Retreat, Sebastian, Florida

Welcome to Elemental Alchemy Retreat—an oasis of serenity nestled within the lush embrace of ChoZen, Florida’s biodiverse lagoon system. I’m Veronique Ory, your guide on this transformative journey crafted with your well-being in mind.

Memorial Weekend, from May 23-26, 2024, marks the beginning of four magical days where we’ll dive deep into the elemental energies of fire, earth, air, and water. Each moment spent in this sacred space is an opportunity for profound connection and growth.

🌕 Thursday (Fire Element): Ignite your journey with lunar practices, full moon gatherings, and a family dinner by the river.

🌍 Friday (Earth Element): Ground yourself with grounding yoga, farm-to-table feasts, and a bonfire under the stars.

🌬️ Saturday (Air Element): Breathe in tranquility with fresh air yoga, invigorating meals, and a special offering as we embrace the winds of change.

💧 Sunday (Water Element): Flow with flowing waters yoga, indulge in a water-infused breakfast, and surrender to the fluidity within.

This retreat is more than just a getaway—it’s a tapestry of well-being and harmony, an invitation to connect with the elements and with yourself. As an intuitive movement and mindful awareness guide, I’ll lead you through practices that will nourish your body, expand your mind, and nurture your soul.

Imagine mornings filled with energizing yoga practices to awaken your senses, followed by evenings of restorative sessions to soothe your spirit. In between, we’ll embark on nature walks, river explorations, and special rituals that will ignite your sense of wonder and awe.

Our eco-luxury lodging and plant-based farm-to-table meals inspired by Ayurveda practices ensure that every aspect of your experience is deeply nourishing. And for locals joining sans lodging, the opportunity to bask in the healing energy of this sacred space is equally profound.

Here’s a glimpse of our itinerary:

Day 1: Thursday (Fire Element) – Lunar practices, full moon gatherings, and a family dinner by the river.

Day 2: Friday (Earth Element) – Grounding yoga, farm-to-table feasts, and a bonfire under the stars.

Day 3: Saturday (Air Element) – Fresh air yoga, invigorating meals, special offerings, and live music by the bonfire.

Day 4: Sunday (Water Element) – Flowing waters yoga, water-infused breakfast, and a gentle farewell as you depart, nourished and rejuvenated.

Invest in yourself and embrace the opportunity to reconnect with nature, deepen your practice, and forge meaningful connections with like-hearted souls. Secure your spot today and step into a world of magic, connection, and transformation.

With love & light,

Veronique Ory 🌿✨
