About Lisa Botts
Riddled with panic attacks and ongoing heart palpitations in 2015, it became clear to me that I needed to slow way down.
I ditched anxiety-producing habits and focused on myself, the people and moments that nourished me on a soul level. There was a deep energetic shift that felt easy.
I committed to living a lifestyle of ease. Not knowing what that looked like in a society that places a high value on hustle, hard work and being busy. I observed an indoctrinated culture where “the struggle is real” and slowing down is a skill set.
Since then I have been crafting a life of ease, freedom and creativity that others have benefited from. A healing blend of meditation, kundalini yoga, reiki, sound healing and emotions coaching has helped my clients and students to realize where their emotional beliefs keep them stuck. Once removed they move forward in life with profound ease. It is possible. Your real life is waiting for you.
Live easy,

Welcome to the serene paradise of Phuket, where the gentle embrace of nature awaits to unfold your transformative journey towards living a life of ease. As you step off the plane, a wave of tranquility washes over you, signaling the commencement of an adventure where your highest self begins to emerge. With Lisa Botts as your guide, this enchanting retreat is poised to unlock the profound powers of healing, growth, and transcendence. Feel the vibration of the land, resonate with the spirit of the island, and prepare to align your soul purpose with the rhythmic pulse of life itself.
Upon your arrival at the airport, catch your group transfer to Lan Sabai, nestled amidst Phuket's lush tropical foliage. This health resort, a testament to sustainability and wellness, invites you to settle into its nourishing embrace. Take this time to unmask and authentically introduce yourself to your fellow retreat companions, forging bonds that nurture your path to clarity and fulfillment.
As dusk falls, it's time to gather for a nourishing dinner designed to delight your senses, completing the first chapter of what promises to be an extraordinary retreat centered on ease, movement, meditation, and the exploration of your true self.
As the first light of dawn kisses the verdant landscape of Phuket, your second day commences with the invigorating practice of kundalini yoga. Under the guidance of Lisa Botts, each breath and movement invites an awakening, aligning you with the vibrations of your highest self. This morning session promises to elevate your spirit, stir your soul, and empower your journey towards transcendence. Witness the unmasking of your limitations, opening doorways to newfound strengths.
With the sun climbing higher, the communal tables of Lan Sabai become a banquet of nourishment for the body and soul. A breakfast, lovingly prepared with local, sustainable ingredients, awaits to replenish your energy. The afternoon is yours to embrace at leisure — a canvas of time to paint with relaxation, exploration, or contemplative stillness amidst nature's masterpiece. As evening arrives, immerse yourself in the healing frequencies of a sound bath, an orchestration that resonates with your innermost being. And as nightfall drapes over the sanctuary, gather once more for a dinner that not only satiates hunger but also serves as a catalyst for soulful conversations and community bonding under the starlit sky.
Day three greets you with the rising sun, offering a fresh opportunity to delve deeper into the transformative practice of kundalini yoga. As you spark a luminous connection between your physical form and spiritual essence, unlock deeper layers of personal growth and empowerment, creating space for clarity and alignment with your soul purpose.
Breakfast is served amidst the tranquil surroundings of Lan Sabai, providing sustenance for the adventures ahead. Today's journey takes you beyond the resort to the sacred heart of Phuket's spiritual landscape during an insightful temple day trip. This pilgrimage is an encounter with the island's cultural soul, an exploration of ornate sanctuaries that stand as beacons of serenity and devotion.
In the evening, prepare to immerse yourself in the vibrant tapestry of a Thai night market experience. This excursion is an adventure for the senses, where the hum of local life, the fragrance of street food, and the kaleidoscope of crafts and textiles come together in a symphony.
After our usual kundalini yoga session and breakfast, the morning evolves into a hands-on culinary adventure. Partake in a splendid cooking class that invites you to delve into the aromatic world of Thai cuisine. Together with your fellow retreat companions, you'll learn to create traditional dishes that are delightful to the palate.
As evening descends, gather once more in a circle of serenity for a meditation session. This quietude of mind is the perfect close to a day rich in learning and sensory exploration. Finally, a shared dinner enhances the feeling of community and friendship that we have forged.
After a mindful breakfast, you are fueled for a day of heartfelt encounters. Today's highlight is a visit to an elephant sanctuary. As you walk amongst these majestic creatures, observe the profound connection between all living beings and the shared vibrations of existence. This experience promises not only to be a poignant reminder of the delicate balance within our world but also serves as a powerful symbol of the nurturing care and respect that is central to your journey of self-discovery and growth.
After sharing a moment with the earth’s gentle titans and a lunch that nourishes both body and spirit, the afternoon beckons you to embrace leisure. This free time grants you the space to reflect on your recent learnings, relax in the embrace of nature, or explore the myriad wonders of Phuket at your own rhythm.
As twilight deepens, the collective energy of the group gathers for an evening dedicated to holistic healing. Group Reiki, meditation, and a sound bath creates a symphony of healing frequencies, facilitating a profound communal alignment and clearing of energy pathways. This sets the stage for a final evening of shared growth and transformation, culminating in a farewell dinner that is a celebration of all that we have achieved during our time together.
As the tropical sun ascends once more, gather for a final breakfast. It's a morning of quiet gratitude, of savoring each bite and every moment shared, a culmination of the growth and connections fostered. With hearts fuller and spirits lifted, it's time to check out of this sanctuary. Catch your group transfer to the airport and say your goodbyes. The journey has come to an end, but the vibrations of healing, empowerment, and ease will resonate within you long after departing from Phuket's soil. Travel safe, and see you again.
