My experience at the retreat was nothing short of transformative. From the moment I arrived, I felt an incredible sense of relaxation wash over me, allowing me to fully immerse myself in the journey ahead. The beautifully orchestrated balance of ceremonies, breathwork, and meditation provided the perfect environment for deep inner contemplation.

The ceremonies offered profound insights, guiding me to a greater understanding of myself and the world around me. The live music played during the ceremonies, was another element that elevated the entire experience. The music perfect with each stage of the ceremony, guiding us deeper into our journeys and amplifying the emotional and spiritual energy.

The focus on holistic nutrition complemented the spiritual work, nourishing both body and mind, and left me feeling refreshed, energized, and more connected. Every practice, especially the rebirthing breathwork, contributed to a sense of peace and clarity that I will carry with me long after the retreat.

If you’re looking for an opportunity to explore deeper layers of your being in a nurturing, supportive, and energizing environment, I can’t recommend this retreat enough. It was an unforgettable journey of connection — not just with myself but with the wonderful people I shared this space with. Truly a gift of relaxation, contemplation, and enlightenment.

What a sensational retreat this has been. A caring, well-crafted safe space that allowed me to relax into the programme and feel an instant connection with the facilitators and fellow participants. Everything was designed to nourish the mind, body and soul, from the blissful accommodation and beautiful food to the incredible ceremonies. Breathwork and meditation sessions were nurturing and so restorative. I have come away from this week feeling connected, cared for and healed. Recommended on the highest level.

Words are not going to come close to explaining just how wonderful the week long Pathways to Connection retreat was. I have been drawn to do a plant medicine retreat for quite some time but after months of research, nothing felt right for me.
I was close to giving up altogether but thankfully the universe aligned and I came across Ithaca retreats and I am eternally grateful. From the very first Zoom call and throughout all the planning, everything felt exactly right. I was travelling from the other side of the world and so a little apprehensive when the retreat was approaching but the warmth and support I received in abundance made it easy.
The week far exceeded any expectation I had and was a truly magical experience. It’s hard to believe this was their first retreat together as everything was perfect and it feels like they have been doing this forever. The ceremonies were conducted with such care and all the integration aspects around it were really well thought out (breathwork, yoga, meditation, music etc).
The meals were exceptional and the epitome of soul food. It was truly nourishing.
The group was also perfect, such beautiful souls who I feel like I’d known forever.
I cannot fault a single thing, aside from having to leave which was really sad.
I’m overflowing with gratitude and will definitely return for another one (if they will have me!!)
Thank you 🙏
