Some things can’t be rushed. Rest. Creativity.
Create. Resonate. Restore. is an all-inclusive four-day, three night retreat nestled in the wooded bluffs of Sewanee, Tennessee, a place designed for exactly the kind of deep reset that busy life never quite reaches. Tucked into 15 acres of private conservation land at Rising Sun Retreat, you’ll trade your to-do list for morning yoga, sound baths under the trees, and the quiet joy of making art just because it feels good.
We designed this retreat around three simple ideas: your body deserves stillness, your nervous system needs sound, and your hands remember things your mind has forgotten.

The Rising Sun Retreat
A sanctuary in the true sense. The Main House & Hickory Hall, four forest huts, a tiny home that doubles as a bath house, a light-filled yoga studio, a cedar barrel sauna, gathering spaces designed for connection, and surrounding trails that lead you gently back to yourself.
