Pack your journal, book, sun-hat, and your carefree inner child, your soul hungry for time with you, and with others doing the same.

Puerto Plata: "The Silver Port" Dominican Republic
Slow it down ... satiate yourself on sweet breezes, sun and sand, sunsets, delish food, beach cabana beds overlooking the horizon ...
Morning and evening yoga to tune you, tone you, stretch and ease you. Long restful days to eat, drink, laze, swim, spa, or book excursions. I highly recommend unplugging and unwinding!
Here's the 2023 YINspirations Retreat Slideshow from our group album! And here, a trailer from my scouting trip with Raul, our minstrel musician!
Lifestyles Tropical Resort is on Cofresi Beach, the Puerto Plata coast of the Dominican Republic. It has weather year-round of 70's to 80's, tropical breezes wafting over the lush green foliage.
Our all-inclusive resort has multiple delicious restaurants in many cuisines, multiple beaches, and gorgeous pools. You can plan excursions, or chill and take advantage of downtime on the beautiful beaches and pools on the grounds. Think of it as a re-set time, with just as much adventure as you may choose. Bring books, swimsuits, journals, pareos! You can also buy beautiful pareos on the beach or in the gift shops.
