DEEPLY Rooted in Reflection, Service & Play

KEY PILLARS

CONNECT

Transformational facilitators, vibrant locally grown meals, guided yoga and sound healing, stunning surroundings, nature art, creative writing, campfire, working with the Earth, and plenty of time to rest, connect, and restore.

NOURISH

As you tend to your heart in your daily sessions, we provide beautiful meals that leave you energized and nourished. Our wellness chef offers delicious and vibrant foods that nurture your body and spirit, integrating traditional Hawaiian foods and locally grown produce and fruit.

INTERGRATE

We invite groups and individuals to deepen their connection to the natural world in order to quiet their mind and remember what authentically moves them. The raw beauty of Hawai’i heals on unseen levels. Our retreats simply act as a bridge to that knowing within us.

BORN OUT OF THE DREAM FOR A MORE PEACEFUL WORLD

Reverence

Our transformational Morning Sessions ask you to return to center - to look inside at the tender places that drive you, shape you, hold you. This sacred pause invites a softening and exploration of your life. Who are you? And how do you long to move in this world?

Connection

A fully unplugged experience — ditch your device and find yourself reconnected to nature, others, and your most honest self.

Play

Through nature art and connection with your inner child, play brings us back to center. It balances the transformational work done in morning sessions, and brings light, curiosity and purpose back into your life.

Woven through your days will be invitations to find play, freedom of movement, and joyful artistic creativity.

Sustainability

Our menu is guided by what is in season, crafted around the fresh offerings from the sea, and shaped by the ‘aina (land which feeds us). At Chrysalis, over 70% of the ingredients used in your meals come directly from the farms surrounding the retreat center.

Service

Strengthen the island through sincerely engaging with its culture. You will spend time working the Lo’i - a restored and ancient farming system used pre-colonization and restored and tended by the Ahupua’a Restoration Initiative.

Culture

Hawai’i is a living, breathing, current and ancient entity - not a tourist destination. Which is why a cornerstone of Chrysalis is to serve the local economy, community, and land. We interrupt the tourist trap, the imported food system model, and the extractive nature of tourism.

“CHRYSALIS IS LIKE CPR FOR YOUR NERVOUS SYSTEM. IT BRINGS YOU BACK TO LIFE.”
