6-Day Maui Yoga, Sound Healing & Ocean Adventure Wellness Retreat

Diane Leilani Cline (Guru Purkh Kaur) has been practicing Kundalini yoga and energy healing since 1996 and has led over 100 retreats. She lives on the island of Kauai and runs this Maui retreat once a year, sharing the spots she's discovered over 15 visits. Stephen, a local chef and waterman who grew up on Maui in 1972, prepares the meals and joins the excursions, so you get a local's take on the island.

The retreat includes four classes a day — Kundalini yoga, meditation and yogic philosophy, and sacred sound sessions with crystal singing bowls and drums (three of the five evenings). There's also a daily 2.5-hour excursion: snorkeling in 80-degree water where you might see turtles, eels, puffers and octopus, swimming and boogie boarding, stand-up paddleboarding, or a meditation in an ancient monkeypod forest. From mid-December through April you get a bonus: a 3-hour boat trip to watch humpback whales.

You choose your speed. If you're here to rest, you start your day at 8:30 am with breakfast and have more silent time. If you want to pack in the sessions, you're up at 7:00 am for yoga in nature. Either way there are four hours of free time each day to hit the beach, explore Kihei, or just be still. The retreat is limited to 3–8 participants, so two-bedroom condos are shared between only three people, keeping things intimate.
