The light here is different…
4 nights of relaxation, adventure, inspiration, yoga, worship and heart + soul connection in St. Tropez. Join Caroline Williams and an intimate group of nine other women for in the hills of this gorgeous seaside town, in the South of France. Why St. Tropez? Because it’s known all over the world for its captivating light. Many of the world’s most famous painters have flocked here, chasing after the light, trying to capture it on a canvas.
You are made by the Father of lights. It’s in your DNA to shine brightly, boldly, and freely. You are uniquely made to shine in such a way that leads others home, that reveals the stunning beauty of heaven here on earth. Maybe you know that in your head, but not your heart. Come with me, to St. Tropez on the Heart + Soul Yoga Retreat, and experience this truth in your body, heart, and soul.
September 10-14 | What to expect: A day in paradise
Each morning will start with some yoga – deep breathing and warming sun salutations in the morning light.
After yoga, we’ll sip our espresso and share a delicious French breakfast on the balcony and then have an hour or two of down time.
Maybe you grab a book and lie by the pool or find a comfy chair on one of the patios to journal while gazing out on the surrounding valley. Walking and hiking paths are available around the villa if you want to stretch your legs and explore the surrounding olive groves. Or maybe you grab a friend and play some bocce ball in the garden.
In the afternoons we’ll head out in search of new adventures that open us up to a new experience of Light. One afternoon we’ll visit the famed St. Tropez market, wandering through the stands of local produce, pastries, and antiques, and feast on Tarte Tropézienne a mouth-watering pastry unique to St. Tropez. Another afternoon we’ll take a boat tour of the stunning St. Tropez bay and then soak in the sun and splash in the water of one of the many white sandy beaches. And let’s not forget about the product the South of France is most well known for – its wine, specifically rosé. One afternoon we’ll visit some of the local wineries, sipping rosé and soaking in the beauty of the vineyards.
Back at our villa we’ll finish the day with some more yoga and a big chef-prepared dinner out on the balcony that will stretch on for hours.

“And you, beloved, are the light of the world. A city built on a hilltop cannot be hidden. Similarly it would be silly to light a lamp and then hide it under a bowl. When someone lights a lamp, she puts it on a table or a desk or a chair, and the light illumines the entire house. You are like that illuminating light. Let your light shine everywhere you go, that you may illumine creation, so men and women everywhere may see your good actions, may see creation at its fullest, may see your devotion to Me, and may turn and praise your Father in heaven because of it.
— Matthew 5:14-16
