About Barefoot Hours Retreat
We know what burnout feels like: long weeks in Singapore or Hong Kong, flying early for business trips, running on autopilot, squeezing in “rest” that doesn’t really restore you.
This retreat isn’t about fixing you or asking you to
“be spiritual.” It’s about giving you a space to:
-
Switch off stress → Practices like breathwork and guided relaxation that calm your nervous system so you can actually rest.
-
Play like a kid again → Slip-and-slides, painting, movement — rediscover the joy and creativity you’ve been too busy for.
-
Connect deeply → Small circles of like-minded people where conversations move past small talk into real human connection.
-
Get perspective → Optional astrocartography readings and reflective exercises that help you see your life from a bigger lens.
You’ll leave feeling:
-
lighter in your body,
-
clearer in your head,
-
and re-energized to face life with more ease and joy.
✨Why are we different?
Not just "healing" - We ground practices in simple benefits you can feel — better sleep, calmer mind, refreshed energy.
Play matters - Most retreats are serious; we bring back fun as medicine.
Integration focus - This isn’t an escape from reality. It’s a reset you’ll take home into your everyday life.

Day 3
Expression & Play
We’ve had the heartbreaks, the career pivots, the burned-out late nights questioning our worth. We’ve felt stuck in situationships, trapped in jobs that didn’t see us, or overwhelmed by expectations that weren’t ours to carry.
This is a space to bring our lived experiences & emotional depth together.
