In the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, the Valle Crucis Retreat 2026 invites you to step away from the rush of daily life and return to what is essential. Over four days, we gather in sacred community for breathwork, live music, movement, and connection with nature—a North Carolina retreat designed for restoration, remembrance, and renewal.
At the heart of Valle Crucis Retreat 2026 is the breath — the thread that weaves us together in presence and belonging. Each day includes guided breathwork sessions, somatic practices, and community circles, creating a supportive space to release, restore, and remember who you are.
Music carries us deeper into connection. With Colin Allured and friends, evenings open into sound journeys, live performance, and the uplifting joy of Mantra Dance — a movement experience blending rhythm, sacred sound, and celebration.
The land itself is part of the retreat. Valle Crucis offers waterfalls, winding rivers, and quiet mountain trails that invite reflection and renewal. Time in nature becomes both teacher and healer, reminding us to return to our natural rhythms.
Some of the most memorable moments unfold in the simple rhythm of porch time — rocking chairs, mountain breezes, and conversations that stretch long into the evening. The porch becomes another circle of connection, where stories are shared and friendships deepen.
The retreat begins before we arrive. The Living Circle is the thread that holds us across the months leading into Valle Crucis. Through seasonal practices, guided pauses, and shared breaths, we stay connected in subtle yet powerful ways — reminding each other that the circle is alive even when we are apart.
This is not another program or course to keep up with. It is a rhythm of presence that you can lean into throughout the year. Sometimes it may be a short recorded practice, a live online circle, or a gentle prompt to pause and breathe with the season. Other times, it may simply be the quiet knowing that others are walking the same path alongside you.
By the time we gather in Valle Crucis in August 2026, the container is already vibrant — infused with the trust, connection, and rhythm we’ve carried together through the seasons. The Living Circle ensures that the retreat is not a single event, but part of a living, breathing journey of community and renewal.
Early commitments not only secure your place — they open the door to The Living Circle, our year-long thread of connection that begins February 2026, leading into next summer’s retreat.
