Winter Treasure Hunt Retreat

nature, creativity, YOGA

With Melina meza

January 24-28, 2027

Start the new year with a few days of quiet, creativity, and connection by the sea.

Join me for a winter retreat at The Sanctuary Beach Resort, a beautiful seaside hideaway nestled among the Marina Dunes along Monterey Bay. With private beach access, ocean views, luxurious accommodations, a heated pool and hot tub, beach bonfires, and an on-site spa, this is a place designed for slowing down and reconnecting with what matters.

Our days will have a gentle rhythm: yoga, creativity, nature, good food, and a little adventure. 

There will be plenty of spaciousness and opportunities to explore some of my favorite Central Coast art galleries and eateries.
