Retreats

Return To Yourself 

2026-27


The retreats I lead and create are the ones I want to go to.

I want great people in an amazing environment filled with joy, creativity and  rest.

I also want to come out the other side with deep insights, shifts, and transformed from within.

I want to return to my life feeling renewed, living more in alignment with who I really am and loving myself and my life.

This is what actually happens. It’s pretty damn great.

What are you offering at these Retreats?

I once asked a bird, how do you fly in the gravity of darkness? And she replied Love lifts me.”

We don't have to fly alone.

Puerto Rico in the winter

After all of the holidays, when winter is lasting so long, let's go to Puerto Rico.  

It is beautiful and warm. This is a time for deep introspeciton, connection to our bodies and deep listening. Taking the time to do this allows us to be ready for our spring, for our new beginnings.

This is in the works people. It's happening!






Yes please

Spring Retreat 2026

We had so much fun! Wow, what a delight to be together and to share in this magical experience. It was filled with creativity, delight, amazing food, adventures, laughter and the magic of Paros, Greece. 


It was amazing!

Fall Retreat 2026

Rebel Mermaids
What can I say but it was magical! We got to dance, write, make, sing and play.  We ate so well and spent every day in turquoise water. It was healing, deeply restorative and connected us to each other and our beautiful selves.
Wow. It was amazing!

Mehera Kleiner

Mehera brings laughter, truth-telling, creativity, beauty, and the ability to hold joy and sorrow at the same time. She weaves the creative and somatically informed transformational arc of the retreat.

As a coach, artist, retreat leader, storyteller, and founder of Your Knowing Self, her work focuses on helping women reconnect to themselves through honest self-reflection, creativity, somatic awareness, nervous-system support, and meaningful life transition work.

She has spent years guiding women through grief, reinvention, burnout, leadership, healing, creativity, and discovering what feels genuinely true.




What many women say:

"First of all, Mehera is a bundle of love. You feel the warmth of her genuine care from the very first moment... You feel profoundly safe, fully accepted- even celebrated - for exactly who you are. Her presence invites you to soften. The outcome is an abundance of constant gifts: lightness and freedom."
- Esera, fall Retreat participant

"I haven't felt this free in decades..."
- Spring retreat participant

"It was more deeply restorative, reaffirming and enlivening than I could have imagined..."
- Lydia, Spring Retreat participant

"The key to opening the padlock blocking me from my true self was you. Your sincerity, trust and generosity gave me courage and confidence. The Retreat brought me back to my joy, my creativity, my love, and my energy. I am so grateful. What came out of this experience is true me."
- Semra, Fall Retreat perticipant

Rest. Release. Reimagine.

"Working on ourselves" doesn't have to be torturous and exhausting. It can be renewing and liberating. 

In our retreats, we work hard and then rest. This rest is often neglected, and dismissed but it is so important. It is where all our work seeps into our beings and integrates into our lives. 

This too is doing important work.
