What makes Eleison Retreats different?

Most retreats ask you to choose: do you want a spiritual deep-dive, or a science-based wellness reset? We believe you shouldn’t have to choose. Our faith-backed wellness retreat is designed to bridge the gap between the wonder of Creation and the mechanics of the human body.

​

We practice wellness as we explore the "why" behind the design.

• Meditation & Breath: We lean into stillness not just as a spiritual discipline, but as a biological "off-switch" for the sympathetic nervous system, calming the amygdala to make space for the Spirit.

• Sound & Movement: Through sound healing and intentional movement, we engage with the frequencies and rhythms God built into our very cells, releasing stored tension and honoring the body as a temple.

• Nature Journaling: We step outside to document nature, using observation to spark a deeper neurological state of awe.

• And more: Each retreat will have its own special offerings, but you can count on community, good food, and deeper connections,

​

We don't look at science as a replacement for faith, but as a roadmap to it. Every session is an invitation to marvel at the complexity of how God made us. When we understand the dopamine of gratitude or the cortisol-clearing power of community, we aren't just "bio-hacking"—we are learning to steward the intricate, beautiful machinery of the soul.
