    The OM Retreat is designed as a complete, immersive journey. All participants are required to hold an All-Inclusive Retreat Pass (or a Full-Day Pass, if released). This ensures that every guest in the studio space is fully dedicated to the collective group practice and shared sanctuary experience.

  • The OM Retreat is an intimate, immersive wellness container hosted at the scenic West Mountain Inn in Arlington, Vermont. Designed as a sanctuary for deep rest and reconnection, the experience offers guided daily yoga, somatic movement, meditation, sound healing, and nature excursions held within a quiet, curated environment.

  • Om is about magic, beauty and joy and attracting those who want to slow down, come together in a vibrant setting where we raise our vibration, heal and connect with each other. The word Om is defined by Hindu scripture as being the primordial sound of creation. It is the original vibration of the universe. Vermont is a magical place that also has strong energy and universal vibrations. It serves as a reminder to slow down, align with natural rhythms, and honor the connection between mind, body, and spirit.

  • To preserve the peaceful, sacred container of the sanctuary and ensure personalized attention, registration is strictly capped at 150 attendees. Unlike open-air festivals, The OM Retreat is an intimate gathering designed for quiet connection and spaciousness.
