🎨🖌️ Happy to announce three new Fall 2025 dates: Starting October 9th, October 16th or November 5th.
If you want to get creative in your search for meaningful travel, self-discovery, & personal healing, join us for a 5-Day Art & Yoga Wellness in Joshua Tree, California, situated on a sprawling private ranch nestled beside the Joshua Tree National Park.
Intuition Painting® is for everyone, regardless of artistic experience. It's about what your soul craves, what hidden blocks you've constructed, and what passions you have forgotten. As your biggest breakthroughs materialize, you will be guided to the clarity, hope, and connection you've been seeking.
This will be our 7th year leading these much-loved retreats in the high desert and we'd love to have you join! We limit participants to 12.

Explore the depths of your inner world with a one-of-a-kind, intuitive art and yoga experience in a safe, judgment-free zone, in the heart of Joshua Tree, California. Surrounded by the rugged beauty of the desert, you’ll find the space and serenity you need to reconnect with your authentic self and tap into higher wisdom.
Set on a stunning five-acre ranch, this retreat offers the perfect sanctuary for those who are ready to shed old skins and step boldly into new ways of being.
The land itself is a catalyst for change. Joshua Tree’s vast skies, rich wildlife, towering rocks, and resilient flora are more than just a backdrop. As you paint and flow through yoga, you’ll feel the energy of this sacred space seep into your bones, empowering you to release fear, embrace transformation, and connect with the wisdom that’s been lying dormant within you.
Each day, you'll begin with grounding yoga sessions to help you center and connect with the powerful energy of the desert. But the heart of this retreat lies in the Intuition Painting® process—a journey into your inner world where your inner muse takes the lead. As you pick up the brush, you’ll let go of any need for perfection or planning. Instead, you’ll allow your intuition to guide you, revealing unspoken truths, deep emotions, and hidden insights that have been waiting to surface.
Through this one-of-a-kind process, you will experience the freedom of spontaneous painting, even if you've never touched a brush before. It’s like dreaming on the canvas, where unplanned shapes and figures bubble up, revealing a “visual diary” brimming with stories and symbols. In the end, you’ll be standing in front of a mirror reflecting your deepest truths, bringing you peace, clarity, and a spark of purpose you might have believed was long gone.
This is transformative work. Intuition Painting® is the answer for those seeking emotional release, ready to reconnect with their true selves, stand strong in their courage, and reignite their joy.
By the time you leave this retreat, you won’t be the same person who arrived. You’ll carry with you a renewed sense of aliveness, a deeper connection to your inner voice, and the unshakable courage to live your truth. This is more than just a retreat—it is a reclamation of your power and a celebration of your true self.

"I attended Montine’s Joshua Tree “Free Yourself” Retreat. As someone who is a busy professional, constantly reading about self-improvement, and has never attended a retreat, I quickly came to appreciate the value of this experience. Group therapy meets art therapy meets “I forgot why I’m here because I’m just enjoying this so much”. If something is not working for you, do something about it and give this a chance. Our group was quite varied in what brought them to the retreat. Montine is a gifted facilitator who is passionate about her craft. She skillfully guided each person, no matter their background or reasons for attending. I will remember this experience forever."
