The Reset - 2 Night Ayur-Yoga Retreat (MA x GDY)
Regular price $4,598.00
After hosting multiple sold-out day-retreats over the past 18 months, Madeleine the Modern Ayurvedic and Gen from Green Door Yoga have felt a deep pull towards facilitating longer, multi-night events for you to truly immerse yourself in the Ayur-Yoga experience.
With this intention, ‘The Reset’ was born.
This practitioner-led retreat aims to educate you in, and guide you through, the ancient Yogic and Ayurvedic principles to optimise your way of living in the modern world.
To restart your dinacharya, your daily routine.
To realign you with ritucharya, your seasonal routine.
To re-awaken that sense of inner knowing.
To rebalance.
To Reset.
Join us for a two-night retreat at Seascape Retreat - nestled into the rolling hills of Hindmarsh Valley, South Australia, with picturesque views to the sea.
This retreat is uniquely intimate and limited to just three pairs of people (one pair per villa). To facilitate openness and vulnerability, this will be a female only offering, for women and those identifying as female. Whether you’re attending with your partner, your close friend, or your parent or sister, we’re using the concept of kalyana mitra, or spiritual friend. By moving through this experience together, you’re able to support, uplift, and encourage each other not only on the retreat, but as you re-enter back into your everyday life.

The Property:
Seascape Retreat is a 75-acre property in Hindmarsh Valley, along the Fleurieu Peninsula, in South Australia. It is positioned amongst rolling hills and natural bushland, with views all the way down to the ocean. The essence of Seascape provides a sanctuary and perfect place to retreat, nurture and reset. With alpacas, sheep and agisted horses roaming its paddocks, along with ample kangaroos and joeys calling this place home, there is no doubt that you too will feel at peace here during your stay.
The Villas:
Seascape Retreat has three villas available to accommodate two guests per villa. All villas have the option for luxury king-sized beds or split singles, depending on your preference. Villas are equipped with their own bathrooms, kitchens and dining spaces. However, the property also has a private main dwelling, which we will gratefully have access to for our retreat. It is here that we will come together for yoga, meditation, workshops, cooking demonstrations and of course – to eat all our Ayurvedic meals. Each building on the property has window-to-ocean views capturing the valley’s rolling hills down towards the sea.
Investment:
Each pair can choose from the three beautiful villas available at Seascape Retreat. These villas have different sizes and decor, and therefore respective pricing structures; thus, we have three prices depending on which villa you choose.
-
Sanctuary Villa – RRP $2499, Early Bird $2299 (per person)
-
Serenity Villa - RRP $2399, Early Bird $2199 (per person)
-
Sky Villa – RRP $2299, Early Bird $2099 (per person)
Note: the running of this retreat is subject to selling out of all 6 tickets / 3 villas. If the retreat does not sell out, you will be reimbursed your deposit/payments. Early bird ends August 30th 2024.
Bookings/payments:
Payments can be made for the villa (for two people) in full via the Modern Ayurvedic website or please email madeleine@modernayurvedic.com.au if you would like to arrange instalments or need further information.
If you are attending alone (without someone to share the villa with) and open to sharing a room with someone in a similar position, then please email Madeleine to discuss options. You will be placed on a 'waitlist' until another person registers a similar interest.
We're looking forward to sharing this immersive experience with you to help you reset.
