• Vitality Day Escape Retreat NZ

Escape the rush of daily life with our new Vitality Day Escape – a condensed, yet deeply transformative wellness experience. Inspired by our renowned Mindful Moments Weekend Retreat, this one-day getaway is tailored for those with busy schedules who crave rejuvenation and balance.

In just one day, immerse yourself in mindfulness practices, yoga sessions, spa therapies, and more, guided by our expert facilitators. Whether you seek a solo retreat or quality time with friends or loved ones, the Vitality Day Escape offers a perfect blend of relaxation and renewal.

While shorter in duration, this experience retains the immersive tranquility and essence of our longer retreats. It’s a chance to pause, reflect, and recharge amidst the natural beauty and geothermal wonders of Rotorua.

Receive a luxurious spa gift bag valued at over NZ$240, filled with high-quality spa and home products to continue your wellness journey beyond the retreat, allowing you to pamper yourself at home.

Join us for a day that promises not just relaxation, but a toolkit of wellness practices to enhance your daily life. Discover why the NZ Herald hailed our retreat as a ‘game-changer’ – a truly calming and revitalizing experience.

What to Expect

Drawing inspiration from our two-day Mindful Moments Weekend Retreat, the Vitality Day Escape delivers a condensed yet deeply restorative experience.
