Buddha Beats Yoga Retreats At Sparkling Hill Resort & Spa 2026!

Back to Self: A Healing Escape An Okanagan Yoga Retreat- November 6th-8th 2026

Step away from the noise, the pressure, and the constant doing—and return to the one place that truly matters: you.

Join Aleena McKinnon, founder of Buddha Beats Yoga, for Back to Self: A Healing Escape—a deeply immersive weekend designed to help you reset, release, and reconnect on every level.

This is more than a retreat. It’s a full-body exhale.

Over the course of this intimate, luxury experience, you’ll be guided through soulful yoga, breathwork, meditation, and powerful healing practices that gently peel back layers of stress, overwhelm, and emotional weight. With over 13 years of teaching experience, Aleena creates a space where you feel supported, seen, and safe to truly let go.

Mornings begin with movement and intention. Days unfold with connection, stillness, and space to simply be. Evenings invite you to indulge—whether that’s in nourishing meals, Okanagan wine, deep conversation, or the soothing warmth of the spa.

Surrounded by breathtaking views and like-minded people on a similar path, something begins to shift. You soften. You open. You remember who you are beneath it all.

You’ll leave feeling lighter, clearer, and deeply grounded—with a renewed sense of self and a nervous system that finally feels at ease.

If you’ve been craving a pause… a reset… a return—this is your invitation.

Spots are limited. Your space is waiting.
