Winter Retreat

Guided by an experienced team, this winter expedition is an invitation to come back to yourself. To find a steadiness that holds, no matter what’s happening around you. To breathe deeply, move slowly, and feel fully alive again.

Over four days, we’ll explore the nervous system and the body in ways that bring real change. We’ll move through cold, climb a mountain, and reconnect with nature in its raw, honest form. Along the way, we’ll go deeper into what makes lasting transformation possible.

For the past two years, I’ve been asking how we make the changes we see at retreats more sustainable. On the final day everyone feels transformed, but once the afterglow fades, old patterns often pull us back. The answer was parts work. Getting to know the younger layers of your psyche, the ones that learned to protect, perform, or withdraw. When these parts are met and understood, real change takes root.

You’ll learn how to move through stress with more ease, feel more energy in your day, sleep better, and reconnect with a clear and focused mind. There will be moments that stretch you and others that bring deep calm.

All of this takes place in wild, beautiful nature. A place that helps you slow down and remember what matters. Around the fire, in the water, on the mountain, through shared stories and connection, something special happens. People come as strangers and leave with friends they’ll never forget. You go home lighter, clearer, and more connected. Not just to yourself, but to every part of you, and to the world around you.

WOW!!!!! First time retreat goer!!! Never could have imagined how powerful this kind of thing can be.

I have participated in several events with Jack, including workshops, weekend retreats and online breath work. Jack is an exceptional facilitator and his passion for the work is truly infectious!

Such a beautiful time learning different techniques to help with life’s challenges. The workshops were very beneficial with time given to allow you to get the most from the instruction. Great surroundings, food and company from a valuable experience.

MEET THE TEAM

JACK WITTS

Full Spectrum Breathwork and Nervous System Coach

For over a decade, I’ve been exploring how we can use the breath, body, and mind to create real, lasting change. My work has evolved beyond any single method. I now bring together a full spectrum approach to breathwork and nervous system education that helps people feel more grounded, focused, and alive.

My path into this work wasn’t a straight line. In my early twenties, I was carrying the weight of an extremely difficult upbringing, living with Complex PTSD, addictions, anxiety and depression, and heading down a path that wasn’t serving me. Learning how to work with my breath and body changed everything. It showed me that change doesn’t come from escape but from learning to meet yourself fully, even in the hard moments.

Since then, I’ve dedicated my life to understanding how humans adapt, heal, and grow through challenge. I now share that understanding through workshops, retreats, and one to one coaching, helping people shift out of survival mode and reconnect to their natural capacity for strength, clarity, and connection.
