If you’re a visionary who’s ready to release what’s heavy and call in pure joy beneath the Northern Lights, this Iceland experience will help you remember who you are when you’re fully alive

 Picture This

You’re standing beneath a sky so clear it feels infinite with shades of violet, indigo, and gold swirling above the snow-dusted horizon. The air is crisp, pure, electric.

You can taste the magic of possibility with every breath.

Around you, a circle of visionaries, creators, healers, leaders have gathered, each one exhaling the year that’s been and opening to the one that’s arriving. There’s laughter. Tears. Champagne. Connection.

Inside the hotel, a fire crackles. Candlelight flickers off crystal glasses as a live string trio warms the air with sound. The scent of delicious food drifts from the kitchen as a feast is being prepared a feast to welcome the New Year.

Outside, the aurora begins to dance with green ribbons unfurling like silk across the heavens. You wrap yourself in a soft wool shawl, step out onto the terrace, and feel awe move through you.

It’s a sacred threshold. A celebration of everything you’ve become and everything that’s waiting to meet you on the other side of this New Year’s dawn. This is Pure Joy Iceland.
A high-touch, heart-expanding, soul-stirring experience designed to help you remember who you are when you’re fully alive.

Why You Should Be Here

Because something inside you is ready to rise beyond healing, beyond “figuring it out,” into the frequency of pure joy itself.

This retreat is a vibrational passage. A five day experience that invites you to meet the highest, most radiant version of yourself, in the land where light dances across the sky and the earth burns with living fire.

Here in Iceland, where glaciers meet lava and day meets night, you’ll awaken your own inner fire. The quiet, steady flame that has always known how to heal you.

You’ll remember that joy isn’t a luxury — it’s medicine for your nervous system, your heart, and your soul.

You’ll explore the edges of your own energy and gently expand into new levels of freedom, laughter, and possibility.

You’ll discover where your light has been dimmed and learn how to amplify it until your joy becomes undeniable.

You’ll activate joy at a cellular level through gentle yet powerful practices:

  • Heart-opening breathwork that teaches your body to soften into safety again using circular and coherence breathing to release tension and regulate the nervous system.

  • Somatic movement sequences that invite presence and flow through guided shaking, intuitive dance, and deep grounding that open the chest, lift energy, and create space for joy to move through you.

  • Laughter immersion to retrain your body to choose delight while dissolving stress hormones and reconnecting you to childlike wonder.

You’ll play with the unseen while receiving joyful surprises, journaling insights, and learning to recognize the language of light that lives within you.

You’ll experience the Northern Lights not just as a sky show, but as a mirror of your own energy field; shimmering, alive, and infinitely expansive.

You’ll carry home practices that last a lifetime; micro-rituals that keep your vibration high and your joy stable, no matter what’s happening around you.

Here’s What Awaits You

✧ Here, amidst vast glaciers, golden light, and endless sky, you’ll remember what it feels like to be fully alive.

✧ You’ll ring in the New Year beneath a canopy of fireworks and northern stars, surrounded by like-minded, expansive souls who reflect your own light back to you.

Relax and Savor Delicious Icelandic Cuisine

A finely plated appetizer with microgreens, sliced cured meat, and thinly sliced vegetables on a white oval plate, on a dark wooden table with silverware, and glasses of water in the background.

Every meal in Iceland feels like a homecoming and a communion with the elements themselves.


The salt of the sea, the sweetness of grass-fed butter, the wild warmth of lamb slow-roasted over volcanic heat. It’s nourishment that remembers where it came from.

This isn’t food made to impress. It’s food made to awaken.

Bread baked by the earth’s own fire. Fish so fresh it still tastes of glacier water and salt air. Soups that warm you from the inside out, like a flicker of light against the long northern night.

Every bite is an act of reverence; for the land, for the body, for life itself.

It’s the kind of food that slows you down, opens your senses, and roots you deeper into presence.

Because here, joy isn’t something you chase, it’s something you taste.

Your Invitation

Imagine beginning a new year not with resolutions, but with revelation.

Feeling lighter, freer, and more aligned with joy than you ever thought possible.

You’ll stand under the Northern Lights, surrounded by a circle of people who see you, celebrate you, and rise with you. You’ll laugh until your body remembers what freedom feels like, breathe until peace fills every cell, and reconnect to the spark that’s been waiting for you all along.

This isn’t about changing who you are, It’s about remembering what was never lost; your joy, your light, your power.

If you’re ready to complete 2025 with laughter, grace, and ease…
If you’re ready to open 2026 as the woman who lives in joy no matter what…
Then Iceland is calling you home to your light.

Step into a higher frequency of joy and freedom in Iceland’s natural landscapes

  • Northern Lights

  • Under the Aurora Borealis

Rise above:
Raise your frequency to Pure Joy

To rise isn’t to climb; it’s to remember.
It’s what happens when the weight you’ve carried melts away, like ice meeting fire, and you finally feel the warmth of your own light again.

During PURE JOY, you’ll be guided through experiences that gently lift your vibration, regulate your body, and anchor you in a state of deep ease.

We rise through:

  • Breath that returns you to safety. Each morning begins with conscious rhythmic breathing—slow coherence breaths, circular flow breath, and “heart hugs” that calm the nervous system and awaken your inner radiance.

  • Movement that lets joy move through you. Somatic shaking, fluid spine rolls, intuitive dance, and grounding sequences that melt tension and invite your body to trust itself again.

  • Laughter as medicine. Structured laughter play and spontaneous joy bursts that rewire your brain toward lightness and open the heart to connection.

  • Elemental attunement. You’ll bathe in geothermal warmth, feel glacier air against your skin, and witness the aurora. Each element reminding your cells how to hold more light.

  • Connection that heals. Small-group circles and moments of true presence where you’ll be fully seen, celebrated, and safe to shine.

As the days unfold, your energy softens, your body remembers ease, and joy stops being something you reach for, it becomes the vibration you live from.

Apply now.

  • You’ve done the work. You’ve read the books, taken the courses, and held it all together beautifully.
    But somewhere along the way, you stopped feeling alive.

  • You give and give, but rarely feel replenished.

  • You smile, but long for laughter that’s real and unrestrained.

  • You crave connection that isn’t small talk, the. kind of connection that feels like oxygen for your soul.

    • Reawakened your playful spirit through laughter, breath, and sisterhood.

    • Opened your heart to give and receive freely, without guilt or resistance.

    • Remembered the truth: joy isn’t a mood it’s your birthright frequency.

    If you can feel that small spark inside whispering “yes… this is for me,” then it’s time.
    Iceland is calling you home to your light.

This Journey is NOT for You If:

  • You don't want laugh, be light or explore joy and your limits.

Why You Don’t Want to Miss It

Because joy like this doesn’t happen by accident.

  • In a world that teaches women to hold it all together, PURE JOY is your permission to fall apart in laughter — to belly laugh until tears run down your cheeks, to feel bliss rush through your body, and to remember what it means to be wildly, fully alive.

    You don’t want to miss this because:

    • You’ll experience the kind of laughter that heals — the deep, contagious, unstoppable kind that opens the heart wider than any therapy session ever could.

    • You’ll wake up every morning in one of the most extraordinary places on earth, surrounded by women who mirror your radiance and remind you that life is meant to be enjoyed.

    • You’ll spend New Year’s Eve not escaping life, but celebrating it — dancing, laughing, and welcoming 2026 in a state of bliss and ease.

    • You’ll leave Iceland glowing — not from the cold, but from the warmth of your own joy.

    This is more than a retreat. It’s a reset.
    A remembering.
    A celebration of everything you’ve lived through — and everything that’s waiting for you on the other side of laughter.

    If joy had a homecoming, this would be it.
