Pack your suitcase with beach & yoga - attire in place of that indoor conference-wear for our Kalani Beachside Eco-retreat Center on the Big Island of Hawaii for 5 days and nights with Carolyn Costin, M.A., M.Ed., M.F.T., Anita Johnston, Ph.D., and Francie White, M.S.R.D. – for an unforgettable mind-body-soul experience. 3 workshops in one!

Forget those hotel conference crowds, hard chairs, and power points…. For… In-depth, life-changing, and intellectually fascinating teachings with 3 of the top eating disorder experts in the country… in your flip flops!

Begin the day with daily meditations, beautiful music, and chants from all over the world, …and our beloved “soul-movement – dance”, an experience participants always rate as one of the peak aspects of these retreats!

Enjoy island time all afternoon - either an outdoor adventure, or hang out in the wireless café, or lounge at the pool and enjoy the full range of massages available!….

Replace hotel restaurant meals with 3 freshly prepared organic, whole food meals all included, featuring a variety of delicious ethnic cuisines in an outdoor lanai where the sounds of tropical birds, exotic fragrances, and light breezes remind you that stress is over a thousand miles away …

Watch the sun and moon rise over the ocean, go on daily beach trips, hiking, snorkeling, with optional tag on trip to the remote beach where dolphins love to swim in their natural habitat with us… nature willing!
