Awakening the Body
The stronger your connection with your physical body, the stronger you can connect with your spirit.
Your physical health and wellness are the foundation from which your spiritual growth can blossom. Throughout the retreat, you will be invited to reconnect with your body, unlock your power, and experience more confidence and comfort in your own skin.
Combining mindful movements and workouts, and delicious, thoughtfully prepared meals from locally sourced clean ingredients, the retreat is also focused on nourishing and honoring your physical body to facilitate even greater spiritual growth.
Awakening Mind & Spirit
One of the greatest acts of courage and love is to live the life your heart and soul desire you to live.
From high vibrational practices to transformational energy experiences and sacred ceremonies, the Radiant Reality & Mindful Movement Retreat offers five days of progressive inner work that breaks down the barriers to receptivity and guides you toward clarity, calm, and purpose.
As you move through the progressive phases of inner work, you will find yourself awakening to your calling with a renewed sense of direction and a deeper commitment to building the life your soul has been yearning to live.
Become the Light
Now is the Time to Create Your New Future
The last few years have taken a toll on all of us. Everywhere you look, you see people who are mentally drained, physically exhausted, and spiritually depleted.
The world feels like a dark place right now. So how do we start to make a shift? How do we turn on the light? Where do we even begin?
We become the light.
The change we all want to see in the world doesn’t come from telling others how to act, how to be, or how to relate to one another. It comes from within. It comes from tapping into our own unique ability to bring joy, balance, and light into our own lives.
When you decide to be the light in your own life, that light naturally radiates out to everyone you meet, touch and work with. This is how real change begins. And it begins right here at the Radiant Reality™ & Mindful Movement Retreat.

Retreat Leaders
Christine Howard
Personal challenges with early-stage breast cancer and a looming divorce became Christine’s wake-up call not to live life in the day-planner. Pausing to reevaluate every aspect of who she was and what she believed, she discovered a brand-new way of relating to herSELF with honor, love, and authenticity.
Her inner work cleared the path to what she calls Radiant Achievement, which is also the topic of her best-selling book and mobile app, where she teaches the art of success without sacrifice. “Step out of frenzy and into flow” is one of the core mantras Christine teaches, speaks, and writes about in her business. Not just a tagline; it is part of who she intentionally shows up as every day.

Testimonials
I loved being away and spending time working on new things in new ways. And the excursion was awesome!
I appreciated the sacred space and guidance I received. What was most beneficial for me was time away to identify and ground into my true desires and to be able to hold the desires in all parts of me.
I am thankful that I took the time to pause, create and solidify the goals that I am now committed to at the same time that I was given the ability to express what I am accomplishing and striving for.
I am thankful for the clarity of message we received each day and the way it build upon each other. I feel aligned soul, heart, mind and for me that puts me in a place of strength and receiving.
I most liked that you both were here with me supporting me each moment of my journey whether I was in joy or confusion.
OPTIONAL VIP EXPERIENCE
Curated Experience to La Alhambra in Granada
End your retreat experience with a custom bonus day that includes a trip to one of the most beautiful and sacred places on earth.
The day starts with a beautiful drive to Granada across fields of olive and almond trees. In Granada, we will spend the morning visiting the Alhambra, one of the 7 wonders of the Muslim World.
The Alhambra is a fortress complex containing several Islamic and Christian palaces that are considered jewels of Islamic and Spanish Renaissance Art. Going back to the 8th century, the Alhambra is the size of a small village with different enchanting gardens and fountains, palaces, passageways, and a fortress that was home to the Sultan, his family, and the court. The Alhambra is the only Muslim citadel that is still standing almost as perfectly as it was back in medieval times.
From there, we will head to Granada’s Albaycin, the Medieval Jewish settlement, where we will enjoy a leisurely lunch with wonderful frontal views of the Alhambra and the royal gardens of the Generalife. A breathtaking experience.
Your day will be completed with a private ride back to Malaga where you can relax in your room after an amazing day or venture out for a late dinner as the sun sets late.
Locals believe that Malaga is at its best once the sun goes down: the architectural jewels of the city are lightened up, and there is great outdoor dining, beautiful wine cellars, and fun discos if you decide to dance the night away!
Included in this cultural experience:
- Transportation to and from Malaga
- Entry ticket to the Alhambra with a private guided tour
- Lunch with local wine
- Leisure time in Granada city center for shopping and relaxing
- One night stay with breakfast at the Soho Boutique Equitativa hotel in Malaga
