On-Site Wellness Sessions
Air - Breath
Use the exploration of breathwork, meditation, and tarot to combat anxiety and find calm amidst film chaos. Like air, breath is the invisible life force that animates our being and connects us to the world.
Water - Sound
Escape the pressures of the film industry and immerse yourself in the healing power of sound baths and reiki. Sound flows like water, the element of emotions and intuition, allowing you to shift into a more relaxed state.
Fire - Movement
Through mindful movement practices like ecstatic dance and yoga asana, we awaken our inner fire and connect with the body. Just as fire is a vital energy that transforms matter, movement allows us to transform ourselves.
Earth - Touch
Nurture your body and release the burdens of long hours with healing massages. Earth, the grounding element, fosters a sense of stability and connection with yourself and the world around you.

Why A Self-Care Retreat is your next vacation between shows!
“A mindful, client-centred massage and healing practitioner.”
“Jason has the trifecta of skills that makes for a mindful, client-centred massage and healing practitioner. Combining his multiple trainings and practice in Eastern modalities, his keen sensing capabilities and the ability to discern individual client needs. He is what I look for when hiring practitioners.”
“Jason is such a compassionate and empathetic person.”
“He makes it very comfortable to be around him. As someone who has pursued health in various ways for 20 years, I don't tend to remember everyone I’ve worked with, but I always remember my reiki session with Jason very fondly.”
“My body has never been as peaceful as it was during my session with Jason.”
“He creates a deeply warm environment that meets you where you are and respects your boundaries. It’s a beautiful experience I highly recommend to other people working in film.”
“Jason knows our lingo as film people and understands what we need.”
“There’s a lot of empathy and compassion there that people who haven’t spent a day in our shoes wouldn’t get. That immediately makes you feel heard and understood.”
