Rest & Reconnect Weekend for Couples

Rediscover the heart of your relationship through a blend of art therapy, narrative exploration, and emotion-focused mindfulness practices. During this educational weekend, you will experience how to:

• IMAGINE through discussion, reflection curiosity about values and your alignment: How have they evolved? What caused them to evolve? How have they stayed the same? How do you live these values?  
• FEEL through activities that embody our deep emotions, including learning ways to communicate our emotions more safely.
• PLAY with exercises that bring awareness and presence to yourself and your relationship to further strengthen your bond.

Complemented by nourishing seasonal meals, signature wellness classes, private nature trails and the deep hospitality offered by 1440 Multiversity, couples will feel seen, cared for and energized for their life journey ahead.
