Retreats are the heart of this work, creating a global community of friends seeking authentic experiences — culturally immersive, deeply intentional, and quietly life-changing.
Modern life keeps us switched on. Stress, burnout, and constant pressure leave us disconnected from what we actually want and need.
Stress makes change feel impossible. Retreats give you the time and space to step out of it, gain true clarity, and learn science-backed tools to become stress resilient and create a better, healthier life.
This isn’t a vacation. It’s the week you’ll point to later and say — that’s when everything shifted.
Travel breaks the illusion that your current life is the only one possible. Retreats are for those ready to become more fully themselves.
This isn’t another yoga retreat. Respectfully.
These retreats are built on neurowellness, the blend of neuroscience and wellness for lasting positive change.
We’re travelers, not tourists, and we love what’s beautiful and authentic. We’re mostly offline and outside.
Retreats are the right mix of NLP, neuroscience-based personal development, and lots of fun. Real conversations and experiential activities designed to help you overcome stress and create what's next: hiking, foraging, stargazing, doing nothing, walking pilgrimage paths, exploring ancient ruins, writing, cooking, reading, wild swimming, asking big questions, pottery, saunas, truffle hunting, and so much more.
why these retreats:
Retreats are small by design and usually fill from clients without needing to market them. You can express interest to join by emailing ashley@ashleypaquin.com or by clicking the envelope below.

Since 2008 we've gathered in...
12th-century chapels in Umbria - blessed by a pope - Portuguese estates along El Camino de Santiago, luxury hotels in Zürich, the St. Francis Way in Assisi, and a floating home in the Pacific Northwest. In 2027 and beyond we're heading to Colorado, Costa Rica and Guatemala. We gather in places rich in beauty, history and culture.
