about us

We wish to give our guests a private, tranquil haven to pamper, nourish, detoxify, recharge and heal themselves, and if they desire, to provide a road map to guide them down a spiritual path of self-discovery. Every aspect of our resort / retreat is dedicated to this purpose:

Our mission is to help you prioritize your mental health and find balance.

Here at wellness matter we know that there’s no one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to mental health and wellness because we’re living it every day with you. That’s why we’re the only dedicated mental health and wellness platform that’s there for you in all aspects of your life—whether you’re living with a mental health condition, managing day-to-day stressors, looking to level up your relationships, or tapping into fascinating psychology theories, we hope you’ll leave feeling empowered to take the next steps toward showing up as your best self.

But we also acknowledge that research is never the whole story and has implicit gaps and biases that don’t capture the full spectrum of lived experiences. Societal shifts and cultural awareness are bound to any conversation around mental health. We promise to never stop learning and putting diverse voices front and center to help us fill in those gaps. We want you to see yourself in the communities we reach and in the stories we share.
