Immerse yourself in a transformative week to reclaim who you are and rise grounded, brave, and joyful in Christ - while playing in Lovcen National Forest. Unique climate, exceptional air quality, breathtaking views. A beautiful place for adventure, restoration, and relaxation.
This is for you if...
You crave getting back to nature and reuniting with the adventure babe that is within you. Asuma is the perfect playground with 10 acres to explore, plus we have excursion options to Skadar lake and Kotor to connect with the sea. Sometimes the best way to find ourselves is to get lost in nature.
You accept the invitation to release the weight you've been carrying - old stories, self-doubt, and the emotions that no longer serve you. Through somatic movement, stillness, mindfulness, and journaling, you'll gently shed what's been holding you back. Step into the lightness of your joyful, authentic self - the one ready to live fully and freely again.
You pour into everyone else - your family, your work, your community - until there's nothing left for you. This retreat is you sacred pause, a chance to refill your cup and remember what it feels like to be deeply nourished. Step away from the noise, return to your breath, and come home to yourself.
Montenegro is known for its dramatic landscapes, ancient villages, and crystal-clear waters — a rare blend of wild beauty, rich culture, and deep peace. It feels both grounding and awakening all at once.
Immerse yourself in a transformative week in the mountains of Montenegro, nestled inside Lovćen National Park at the breathtaking Ashuma retreat — a luxury sanctuary overlooking both mountain ranges and the Adriatic Sea.
This is a place where time slows down.
Where the mountains ground you.
Where the stillness invites you back to yourself.
Where, just beyond the peaks, the sea reminds you how expansive and alive you still are.
Montenegro is known for its dramatic landscapes, ancient villages, and crystal-clear waters — a rare blend of wild beauty, rich culture, and deep peace. It feels both grounding and awakening all at once.
This retreat is for the woman who is done surviving and ready to remember: that she is fun, adventurous, curious, faithful, and fully alive.
Through a sacred blend of somatic movement, yoga, breathwork, meditation, soulful journaling, and meaningful excursions, you’ll shed limiting beliefs, renew your energy, and strengthen your connection with yourself and Jesus Christ — not by striving, but by returning to what is already true.
This is not an escape from your life.
It’s a remembering of who you are meant to lead it.

EMMA CONOVER Embodied Life Coach
Hi, I'm Emma — an Embodied Life Coach and yoga teacher certified in Vinyasa, Somatic, and 26/2. I have hosted nearly 20 yoga adventure retreats for women around the world. I am passionate about helping women reconnect with themselves and God through movement, healing, adventure, and intentional living. My journey has been shaped by overcoming adversity, rebuilding after loss, and learning how to create a life rooted in faith, resilience, and deep self-trust. Through somatic practices, nervous system healing, yoga, travel, and personal growth, I guide women back to their bodies, their truth, and the courage to live fully. Whether through retreats, coaching, or community, my mission is to create spaces where women feel safe to heal, empowered to grow, and inspired to embody the life they truly desire.
This place, set in Lovcen National Park, is amazing. I could tell that there was a lot of thought and care put into creating it. I joined a silent retreat and it was just perfect. Accommodation is 5star glamping…all the way down to a plush robe and slippers! Food is delicious and the lounge area is comfy and peaceful. I'm ready to return! Highly recommend.

Such an amazing place! The location is so quiet and surrounded by green, all you can hear is birds. The tents are wonderful and attention has been paid to every detail - I loved sleeping practically outside but still in a comfortable bed. Food was also healthy, local and delicious. My retreat was only for two nights but I would have happily stayed another week. Can't wait to return.

We have an amazing experience in Ashuma right now, September 2023. From the very first day being here is like to be in a fairy-tale: very special place, where natural beauty is connected with lovingly created man made space. Even the smallest details are so well thought, convenient, and ful of soothing positive energy. Tents are lovely to stay, and all other spots (yoga hall, dining area, chill out gathering space etc.) are planned and made with lots of love. Nice to touch, beautiful to see, pleasure to be. And last, but not least is a group of people who make all of this work. Their work is impeccable, they are always here for you in a very genuine, kind and delicate way! Guy, you are truly amazing! Thank you for everything you do.
