Perfect for anyone who wants to wrap up the current year with gentle rest
And enter the new year with authentic clarity and renewed energy
Welcome to our third run of our annual Sacred Rest with Nature retreat – a deliciously restful time to slow down from all the doing, and tune into your inner rhythm. It is a time to embrace rest as a sacred practice.
Through nurturing your body, mind, and soul with Nature, you can cut through all the noise and start to listen to your inner voice – the voice that matters the most.
This 6-days-5-nights retreat is designed to provide wellness experiences to guide you to be in rest, such as forest bathing, yoga nidra, cacao ceremony, and shamanic journey. The retreat program is also sensitively curated to offer spaciousness – downtime to reflect and integrate, to enjoy the facilities at Museflower Retreat & Spa, or to simply to be.
Why is rest important?
You already carry all the answers within you. This retreat offers you the space and support to rest and listen.
Most of us are addicted to busyness. We push ourselves to create more, to achieve more, and to tick off more boxes from our to-do lists every day.
More and more of us have forgotten the importance of rest, as shown by the rising cases of anxiety, chronic fatigue and burnout all over the world.
Nature is the best teacher for rest. If we look at the seasonal cycle of Nature, the winter season is as important as other seasons. Even though during winter it seems like nothing much is going on the surface, but in the darkness the soil is preparing and replenishing itself to be ready and to support the next cycle of crops.
So when we gently rest to reflect on the current year, we are giving ourselves space to return to our center and to allow clarity arise.

Every day we will lie down and rest in yoga nidra, a yogic sleep meditation.
We rest in the element of Earth through forest bathing and shamanic journey.
We rest in the element of Water through cacao ceremony and forgiveness practice.
We rest in the element of Fire through fire release ceremony and story circle.
We rest in the element of Air through creative tea blending and kirtan.
Sacred rest is not only the time to practice doing nothing, but it is also a time to tap into your heart and to listen to your soul’s whisper.
Rest is also productive. When we allow ourselves to rest, we are replenishing our inner Earth, Water, Fire and Air. We are then ready for something new to unfold for the new year.

- It’s a very holistic program where we are able to truly rest and nourish our soul physically, mentally, emotionally with nature, forming connections with people and nature. Thank you so much Tania and Youmin for organizing this! I really love this retreat and feel ready and equipped with these new practices where I can incorporate in my daily life back home.Maureen L., Singapore
- I’m so glad I could come. One of the greatest experiences of my life. appreciate all the arrangement of this program, especially thanks to Youmin and Tania. Really enjoyed! The vegetarian food was really good, thanks!Seal K., Singapore
- The Sacred Rest with Nature Retreat has provided me with the time and space to pause, slow down, release and reflect. The various activities Youmin and Tania brought us through were thoughtfully crafted, both holding a gentle, open and safe space for me to be fully myself. I am grateful to have taken this time to be here at Museflower, surrounded by nature, nourished by the life and people here, and allowing myself to gently and mindfully rest before the year ends. I am grateful for this liminal time and space.Yun Ying F., Singapore
The Sacred Rest with Nature Retreat hold a special place in my heart. It’s like home-coming to me, coming back to my sanctuary, my sacred space. Tania and Youmin are very welcoming, holding space for everyone, such that everyone can have their own voice and share whatever that is in their hearts without fear of being judged.
Maureen Lee, SingaporeThe past 2 years were very driven years for me as I started my own business. I didn’t realize how little I have devoted to caring for myself until I was at the retreat and realized how much more love I needed to give to myself. Youmin and Tania, with their gentle wisdom and their gentle ways nourished me and inspired me to being life anew in 2026. Being with kindred spirits (other retreat participants), all with their own stories but also all with the same devotion to self-care also made me determined to put self-care and self-love as top priorities. Thank you, Museflower, Tania and Youmin for everything.
Wei Teng C., SingaporeI came to the Sacred rest with Nature retreat to re-set my mind, body, emotions and spirit. Mission accomplished. I feel complete and renewed and healthy and happy. I met new friends that I feel like I truly have a soul connection with. Thank you. ❤️
Rasheena, USASacred Rest with Nature Retreat gave me the pause I desperately needed. Thank you Tania and Youmin for holding the safe space.
