Lingering Questions

Why during the Spring Equinox?

The Spring Equinox invites renewal. As nature begins again, so can we. This retreat is a chance to pause, reflect, and realign before the season's momentum takes hold. In stillness, clarity comes, and with clarity, aligned action.

Why this retreat?

At Retreat Maia, everything is an invitation. We hold space with care, encouraging you to honor your needs and follow your own rhythm, whether that means joining every workshop or resting by the waterfall. Aligned with the Spring Equinox, this retreat blends rest, reflection, and connection to help you tune into nature’s rhythm and your own.

Is this right for me?

If you’re feeling overworked, disconnected, or in transition, this space is for you. Whether you're craving clarity, deeper connection, or just a break from the noise, this retreat invites you to slow down and come home to yourself.

You don’t need to be spiritual, just open to reflection, rest, and renewal.

What can I expect?

You’ll spend 6 days completely immersed in nature with a soulful community. Our retreat offers the perfect combination of engaging workshops, playful exploration and space for rest and reflection.

You’ll return to yourself, your inner clarity and inner peace. You’ll leave feeling inspired, rejuvenated and grounded in your next steps.

This is a frequently asked question?

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
