THE RESET

A Coastal Wellness Retreat in Gulf Shores, Alabama

November 11–14, 2026

Sometimes you don’t need another vacation. You need a real reset.

The RESET is an intimate, all-inclusive Gulf Shores wellness retreat created for people who are ready to step away from the noise, slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with themselves.

Hosted by Margie Sanders of Bliss House Yoga and Brent Cotton, an acro and dance teacher from Austin, Texas, this 3-night Gulf Coast retreat brings together yoga, restorative movement, breathwork, meditation, Tibetan singing bowl sound healing, sound therapy, AcroYoga, dance, Thai massage/ Kama Flight, playful movement, beach time, nourishing meals, meaningful connection, and plenty of unstructured time to simply rest.

Set along the beautiful Gulf Coast, The RESET was intentionally designed with a balance of guided experiences as well as free time. You won’t spend every minute following a schedule. Instead, you’ll have room to choose what you need each day: movement, connection, adventure, stillness, bodywork, creativity, or rest.

If you’re feeling burned out, overwhelmed, stressed, disconnected, or simply ready for a change of pace, The RESET gives you space to pause and restore.

Throughout the weekend, you’ll experience practices designed to support relaxation, stress relief, nervous-system regulation, body awareness, emotional renewal, and mental clarity. You’ll be invited to move, breathe, receive, play, explore, connect, and—perhaps most importantly—just be.

TWO TEACHERS. TWO DIFFERENT WAYS TO EXPERIENCE THE RETREAT.

Margie Sanders — Yoga, Meditation & Sound Therapy

Margie is the founder of Bliss House Yoga and a yoga and meditation teacher, sound therapist, singing bowl trainer, retreat host, and mentor.

Her work brings together yoga, meditation, breath, sound, energy work, and body awareness to create experiences that are personal, approachable, and deeply restorative.

Brent Cotton — Acro, Dance & Thai Massage

Brent Cotton is an acro and dance teacher based in Austin, Texas. His work brings together movement, play, connection, trust, and physical awareness.

During The RESET, Brent will lead a beginner-friendly AcroYoga experience and a dance workshop, giving you opportunities to explore movement in new ways.

TWO PERSONALIZED PRIVATE SESSIONS

Every guest receives two private wellness sessions during The RESET — one with Margie and one with Brent.

Your session with Margie

Choose between a private yoga session, personalized around your body and goals, or a sound therapy session that begins with an assessment and uses therapeutic Tibetan singing bowls to support your individual needs.

Your session with Brent

Choose between a private AcroYoga session, with instruction tailored to your experience level, or a Thai massage / Kama Flight session offering a unique approach to bodywork, supported movement, and relaxation.

You don’t have to choose ahead of time. You’ll have plenty of time during the retreat to decide which experiences feel most supportive and interesting to you.

SPACE TO REST — NOT ANOTHER SCHEDULE TO KEEP

This isn’t about packing every minute of your getaway with activities.

It’s about creating enough space to hear yourself again.

There will be time to enjoy the beach, spend time in nature, have meaningful conversations, take a nap, read a book, explore Gulf Shores, or simply sit and do absolutely nothing.

The RESET is for the person who spends most of their time taking care of everyone else. For the person who has been running on empty. For the person who knows they need rest but has trouble giving themselves permission to stop.

And you don’t have to be an experienced yogi.

You don’t have to be “good” at meditation.

You don’t have to know anything about AcroYoga.

You don’t have to arrive knowing exactly what you need.

Just come willing to pause, explore, receive, and play.

Over three nights in Gulf Shores, you’ll have the opportunity to step away from your normal responsibilities, reconnect with your body and inner world, spend time near the water, receive deeply, and make room for whatever comes next.

ACCOMMODATIONS

The RESET takes place in a private retreat house in Gulf Shores, Alabama.

If you’re coming with a friend or partner and are comfortable sharing a bedroom with one queen or king bed, you can book together and receive $100 off per person.
