RIVERSIDE RETREATS

Imagine a 'Nature Scavenger Hunt' along the riverside trails, where family members 
can work together to find hidden treasures while enjoying the outdoors. 
How might this adventure encourage both fun and a healthy, active lifestyle?

Under Construction, forgive our mess.

We are doing so much work ... both outside as well as on our website.  Please forgive the mess.  We're working hard to get things ready for our next event.  Speaking of our next event, check this out ... 

Our Vision

Our vision is to help every visitor (in-person and/or virtual) and all those they know to have fun, heal and to be AWAKENED to their full potential of who they were created to be.

Some of Them Are :

  • Fun, Bonding and Connection: Facilitate meaningful connections among families, friends, co-workers by offering a natural setting that encourages shared experiences and quality time together ... all while ... having FUN & HEALING.
  • Harmony with Nature: Infuse consciousness by enjoying, feeling preserving nature and promoting nurturing a deeper connection with ourselves through self-awareness and one another through nature.
  • Unplugged Retreats: Encourage digital detox and mindfulness by offering an environment where people can disconnect from technology and reconnect with nature and themselves.
  • Dream Fulfillment: Inspire individuals to pursue their passions and dreams, providing a space where creative expression and personal aspirations can flourish.
  • Healing Haven: Provide a nurturing space for individuals to find solace, fostering emotional and physical well-being through the calming presence of the river.

Riverside calm fosters healing, connection, transformative experiences.

IMPORTANT NOTE ...

We love to do virtual tours and even virtual events, believe it or not.  Yes ... ideally you can visit us in-person someday, but Riverside Retreats can change your life and the lives of those around you without you ever physically being with us.   Complete a short questionnaire and we will connect with you.  We partner with a non-profit organization, Life Masteries and have developed "visit scholarships" where if you aren't able to attend due to financial constraints, we will seek to help provide the funds to travel.  

Share With Others

Riverside Retreats has been created to create an AWAKEING of your mind, body, soul and spirit.  

Do this alone or do with with someone else or a whole group of people.   Throughout the retreat center, you'll find different QR codes which are designed to share some tips about what you may be able to do to have a life changing experience ... i.e. to be AWAKENED.
Often, it seems that we struggle to have significant  / deep conversations ... conversations where the energy the flow seems to affect not only how we think but our very DNA.  Have you ever been AWAKENED ... only to go back to our normal life and get in the "habit" world, the world were we feel safe, secure ... where we feel that we have it pretty good and really not sure if we would want to change anything?   We are partnering with Life Masteries Institute (LMI) and their Life GPS mobile web app to take whatever AWAKENING and carry it back into your everyday life and live in the creative world, not the world of habit.

AWAKENING

Riverside retreats: where souls awaken to nature's embrace

Serene riverside retreats: where spirits awaken through nature's healing touch, embarking on transformative self-discovery and renewal.

In serene riverside retreats, a special kind of awakening happens. The calming sounds of the flowing water mix with the feeling of starting anew. Here, people can discover new things about themselves and find peace from their daily lives. These retreats help awaken something inside, encouraging personal growth and change that stay with you even after you've left the peaceful riverside.

Our History

What role have riverside retreats played in our history of relaxation and renewal?

Rooted in our history, riverside retreats have provided generations with a space to unwind, bond, and find solace in the embrace of nature.

The history of riverside construction is a story of civilizations recognizing the value of rivers for sustenance and trade. From ancient Mesopotamian irrigation to Roman aqueducts, medieval fortifications, and modern urban revitalization, the evolution of riverside construction showcases human ingenuity, adaptability, and the quest for harmonizing development with nature.

Events

Yearly Events & Community Events & Corporate Events 
And Even Spontaneous Events

Hmmm ... how often should you check on the "Events" section of the website?  We would recommend at least once a month and maybe even weekly.  We have a crazy group of fun people who are passionate about helping people to have fun & heal and we do that all the time.

The Riverfront ... 

Before

It's pretty interesting isn't it ... the Before & After?

Are you a place in your life where you feel like the before ... and you need an after?  When we see nature ... when we hear nature ... when we experience / feel nature we ... it's impossible to really put into words, isn't it?

Just like the riverfront was overgrown, flooded and a dangerous mess our lives can be the same way.  We can feel like we're a mess and we welcome everyone who feels this.  The riverfront is a place to relax, have fun ... to connect with others and to be alone with ourselves.  

In our experience ... healing is the easy part.  The hard part is "staying healed" i.e. taking our hurt and turning it into something that we are able to be thankful for the pain because of all the good we are able to bring into the lives of others.

Q&As

Q - 

We Value Your Feed & Thoughts

How do we improve & grow?  How do we all get better?  
In our experience the fastest way to grow and get better is to ask questions ... of us ... and others around us.  At Riverside Retreats, our passion is helping you to take whatever experiences, whatever thoughts, feelings ... insights ... changes in how you thought and bring those to your daily lives.  

After an amazing experience, we often have a thought that we'll change or a healing thought, a thought of thankfulness, forgiveness, healing or some other thought ... and then honestly ... we slip back into our old way of thinking ... slip back into the "Habit" world ... rather than living in the creative world, the world in which we can heal and grow ... the world in which we live a new adventure each and every day.
