10-Day Ayurvedic Wellness Retreat in Hawaii with Daily Treatments

The retreat is a ten-day, nine-night program designed around Ayurvedic principles. Each day includes a two-hour treatment session that rotates between Abhyanga (whole-body warm oil application), Shirodhara (a steady stream of oil poured across the forehead), and Swedana (herbal steam therapy to promote sweating and detoxification). These aren't optional add-ons—they're the core of the program, and they're chosen based on your individual constitution or dosha. The treatments are deeply calming and are meant to loosen accumulated metabolic waste so the body can eliminate it naturally.

Mornings typically begin with a yoga and meditation session, then a full breakfast. The middle of the day is given over to your treatment and free time. Late afternoon often includes an educational circle or a cooking class, where Jodie and Sky teach the principles of Ayurvedic eating so you can continue the work at home. Evenings sometimes close with yoga nidra outdoors, under the stars. There's also at least one private one-on-one session during the week to talk through your health history, goals, and what you're noticing in your body.

Because the retreat is limited to three guests, the schedule can flex around how you're feeling on any given day. Some mornings you might want to sleep in; that's fine. The structure exists to support your system, not to police you. Jodie brings a background in depth psychotherapy to the teaching, so although the retreat is educational, it's not didactic—it's more like a guided conversation about your habits, stresses, and patterns, with practical tools you can actually use afterward.

The food is a full three meals a day plus snacks, and it's all plant-based, mostly organic, and locally sourced where possible. Sky handles the kitchen, and guests consistently mention his cooking in reviews—the sense that every meal is both nourishing and genuinely delicious. Cooking classes teach you how to prepare Ayurvedic meals at home using the same principles. You'll also learn simple meditation techniques, grounding practices, and get guidance on creating routines that support your body's natural rhythms once you return to ordinary life.
