The Refuge Retreat | Jamie Lee Finch & Lyndsay Brooke

The Refuge Retreat is a homecoming. To your body. To the land. To each other. The Refuge Retreat is an invitation unto union. To reset and realign with your body in sanctuary and community.

October 1-5, 2026

Bask Retreat Center, Middle Tennessee

Starting at $400 per night

What to expect:

Over four nights at Bask Retreat Center, we’ll move slowly and intentionally. Days will include conscious movement and group somatic practices, temperature therapy amenities for nervous system regulation, plenty of spacious integration time, and educational sessions that connect physiology, mindset, and lived experience.

You’ll also have the opportunity to receive 1:1 health consults with Lyndsay and/ or 1:1 bodywork with Jamie, woven seamlessly into the retreat so your body’s unique needs are tended to with focused presence and care.

And all of it will be held inside a supportive, nourishing environment with your meals prepared by a private chef, multiple luxury lodging options, and space to rest, feel, and remember what your body already knows.

The Refuge Retreat is not a retreat for bypassing, performing, or fixing yourself.

It’s for women who are ready to stop outsourcing their inner knowing, stop waging war with their beautiful bodies, and start living from a place of wholeness and vitality again.

‍

Jamie Lee Finch has been at the forefront of the cultural shift towards understanding and prioritizing somatics for over a decade. Her proprietary framework, Personified Embodiment, has transformed thousands of lives through her online course, live teachings, published materials, 1:1 coaching, group facilitation, podcast hosting + appearances, and hands-on bodywork.

Her greatest passion is showing up with full presence to the long-term, individual + collective process of conflict mediation between human beings and our bodies. And her deepest conviction is that healing and repair are always possible through a combination of compassionate understanding + sovereign self-responsibility.

Her own life and healing is a testament to this, as well as the literal miracles she has seen in the lives and bodies of her clients over the past ten years. She believes anything is possible when we come into true + trusted partnership with our wise, resilient bodies, and she will be bringing that belief, in the form of teaching, practice, and 1:1 hands-on sessions, to The Refuge Retreat.

Lyndsay Brooke brings over 20 years of experience in the medical field and a deeply embodied commitment to root-cause healing. After 13 years as a Registered Nurse in family practice and home health, she saw how often symptoms were managed while deeper patterns — stress, depletion, inflammation, and nervous system dysregulation — were left unaddressed.

Now just weeks away from becoming a licensed Family Nurse Practitioner, Lyndsay integrates a functional lens with lived, embodied practice. For the past three years she has worked as a health coach, guiding clients through nutrition, lifestyle, and targeted supplementation while helping them better understand their bodies.

During The Refuge, Lyndsay will weave personalized health consults and educational sessions into the retreat, helping participants understand their physiology while reclaiming ownership of their health and vitality.

Your Turn To Receive

Your feet hit the floor, and the day begins before you have had a moment to breathe.

You spend your days giving, carrying, nurturing, and showing up for everyone else. Somewhere along the way, you may have forgotten what it feels like to simply receive. If this sounds familiar, there is a place for you at White Lilies Journey, a restorative women's wellness retreat in Tennessee created for women who are ready to slow down, reconnect, and be cared for, too.

As a woman, you lead, nurture, and pour yourself into the world. With so many expectations and demands competing for your attention, it can become difficult to tune into you: your body, your inner voice, your joy, and the parts of your life that are quietly asking to be renewed. A timeless symbol of renewal and grace, the delicate white lily carries a gentle reminder: after seasons of giving everything to everyone else, it is finally your turn to bloom.

Over This Restorative Weekend, You Are Invited To:

Rest deeply, entirely free of guilt.
Reconnect with nature's quiet wisdom and return home with new insight and a renewed sense of self.
Nourish your mind, body, and spirit through delicious meals, restorative yoga, reflection, and community.
Celebrate the magic of womanhood within a soft, supportive sisterhood.
Trade notifications, expectations, and constant motion for birdsong, creativity, and room to breathe.

The Invitation

White Lilies is your whimsical escape back to yourself. Hidden among the whispering trees and butterfly meadows of Bask, this intimate women's nature retreat asks a simple question: What has been waiting within you, just longing for your attention?

Remember Your Magic

This is not about changing who you are. It is about remembering who you have always been.

Together, we will share slow mornings, sudden laughter, nourishing food, quiet reflection, and the gentle alchemy that happens when women gather with open hearts. Whether you are navigating a transition, craving clarity, feeling burned out, or simply longing to feel more like yourself again, White Lilies Journey offers a safe place to land.

The retreat will balance guided experiences with spacious personal time. You will be invited to participate at your own pace, listen to your body, and choose what feels supportive. No previous retreat, yoga, or meditation experience is required.

This Retreat Is For Women Who:

Are ready to trade notifications for birdsong and make space for fresh creative energy.
Miss the version of themselves that felt light, playful, and fully alive.
Are ready to exhale the overwhelm and release the feeling of never being enough.
Believe that slowing down does not mean falling behind.
Are moving through a personal, professional, or relational transition.
Long for deeper connection with themselves, the natural world, and other women.
Want to attend alone, with a friend, or with someone they love.

Can I Attend Alone?

Yes. Many women attend retreats on their own. White Lilies is intentionally limited to a small group so solo guests can feel welcomed and naturally connect, while still having room for solitude, rest, and personal reflection.

Led by Aylin Ozgener

For the first time, Bask Retreat Center's visionary and founder Aylin Ozgener will personally guide this special retreat. Aylin has spent years creating spaces where others can experience the restorative power of nature. After feeling a deep calling to lead one retreat each year herself, she chose White Lilies as the retreat she knew she was meant to offer. Her intention is simple: to create a heartfelt experience where every woman feels seen, supported, and reminded of her own innate beauty and strength.

"I am listening to my inner wisdom and the integrated energies of life to lead White Lilies. This is an 'invitation' and an 'initiation' for women seeking their purpose. This will empower you for your highest calling."
