Hi! We're Dan Russell and Melanie Spring. We're the leaders of Hama and have spent years gathering growth-driven people for immersive, uplifting experiences that help them better themselves.

We've had some great self-discovery experiences, as well as some not so great ones. The experiences we’ve absolutely loved had two things in common:

The Right Facilitation: “Facilitation,” in this context, means that you not only have the right people, but also the right protocols, in place to create a seamless, immersive, and comfortable experience for those participating in any of our online programs or live experiences. 

Shared Energy: When the right combination of people come together, there is a good feeling in the room. It doesn’t matter who you are. You feel it. This energy, in our experience, contributes an enormous “X” factor to the quality of the experience, and it is dependent on the level of care that went into curating the group.

Hama’s Rekindling retreat brings together both of these elements—the right facilitation and the right shared energy—to create the most luxurious, immersive, and impactful self-discovery experience possible for you and your partner to connect deeply in an environment free from triggers and distractions.

We're excited for you to see just a small piece of what we have in store for you as you explore this page, and if this experience appears like something you’d like to take part in, we invite you to schedule a call to find out if we are the right fit for each other.

To your continued journey,

Melanie Spring & Dan Russell

  • “My life has been changed forever. I have been completely transformed on an emotional, spiritual and physical level.” - Sam

  • "I have never been so welcomed in all the ways and allowed to simply be me during a most vulnerable time in my life." - Michelle

  • "I was in a dark night. This experience moved me to a place where I can not only see the light at the end of the tunnel, I can feel the sun shining on my face. I feel having it can best be summarized in the chorus of Glorious by Macklemore... I feel glorious, glorious." - Susan

  • "A life-changing experience. I feel freer to be authentically myself." - Kate

  • “We attended a couples retreat hosted by Dan and Melanie. They carefully thought through every detail from pre retreat intention settings calls through post retreat integration calls and everything in between. I loved how we had time and space to work on our own personal development and then time to reconnect and work together as a couple. After being married for 22 years you do fall into a mindless routine and we needed that to be disrupted to then recommit. We are a strong team made even stronger by this experience. Thank you so much Dan and Melanie for providing a safe and welcoming space to do so! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️...⭐️” - Coleen

What kind of sessions can I expect?

Intention Setting

Set the right goals

Your intention is a stated desired outcome you create at the outset of your retreat experience. It strikes at the heart of what you need most in order to experience rapid transformation. At the outset of the retreat, we’ll walk you through exercises to help you identify your own intention.

Self-Discovery Sessions

Seek meaning & truth

Each of Hama’s self-discovery sessions are slightly different in their focus and intention. They are a combination of meditation and active psychological exercise, and they are designed to help you approach your intention from multiple angles and uncover truths about yourself that wouldn’t otherwise be uncovered.

Premium UX Template for Framer

Immersive Experiences

Treat your body inside & out

Our immersive experiences feature expert healers who have years of experience in creating and holding space for healing and energetic cleansing. From crystal sound bowls to body work, our team knows how to “tap in” to what you need in the moment and create a unique healing experience for you.

Grounding Sessions

Get deeply connected

Grounding sessions are used to prepare your body and mind for a transformative experience. You’ll be gently guided through exercises to get you out of your head and into your body. Once a grounding session is over, you’ll feel more open, calm, and ready to go inward.

Premium UX Template for Framer

Massage & Somatic Work

Unwind & relax

Your body knows more about your state of mind than your waking, conscious mind. When you feel ill, or you have a tight muscle, in more cases than not, that’s your body compensating for something. Whether it’s stored emotion, limiting beliefs, or past trauma, massage and somatic work can help relieve and release your body.

Premium UX Template for Framer

Integration Roundtables

Take lessons home with you

An integration roundtable is a group discussion during which you’ll have the opportunity to listen & share about lessons learned from your self-discovery sessions. These roundtables are held throughout the retreat experience to help you keep track of your progress toward your intention.

Find your center—together

This retreat is exclusively hosted for couples who are looking to dive deep together in an environment exclusive to people in relationships.

The retreat space and agenda are specifically designed from the ground-up with connection and intimacy in mind.

From the moment you arrive, you and your partner will be invited to join in exercises, meditations, and other experiences that will spark more intimacy and connection.

Everything is taken care of for both of you

When was the last time you completely surrendered and consciously decided to trust that things will work out? 

This ability to trust, in the universe and in yourself, is a large part of finding your center and pursuing personal mastery. 

We’ve designed this experience to let you practice trusting and surrendering. That comes with the reward of being delighted and completely present.

We invite you to arrive at the Rekindling ready to embrace whatever experiences may arise, whether they are blissful or challenging. The reward, beyond the perks of the experience itself, will be a long-term mindset that celebrates the unknown, embraces obstacles, and sees the abundance in every moment.

Immerse Yourself In Sacred Space

Immerse Yourself In Sacred Space

Every Hama experience is hosted at Hama House. We've designed our space to immerse you in a safe environment designed to bring out the real you—without judgment and with the right guidance to finding your best self.

We believe that sacred space is a real and critical element to the personal growth process. We don't preach or engage with any religions or doctrines, and our philosophy is based on each person at our retreat finding what is true for them.

The way we design our space and facilitate our programs is based on this philosophy, and it has the effect of allowing each retreat participant to pursue their own truths in the presence of whatever power they believe in—without the pressure of having to fit into any social "norms."

The Hama Vibe

Feel At Home

Feel At Home

One of the hardest parts to describe about the Hama experience is also the top reason past guests have given the type of feedback they have: the Hama Vibe.

It’s not one thing that we can point to, like, “yup, it’s the candles.”

It’s everything we put into creating the sacred space for your experience, from the creature comforts to the “little things” and all the way to the spiritual energy we pour into the space prior to and during your stay.

The Hama Vibe is very real, and once you feel it, you’ll know you’re in the right place.

We're modernizing the path of personal growth, and we're leaving no stone unturned.

Humans have never had as much access to transformational knowledge and tools as we do at this time in history. The biggest problem is not access, but knowing what to believe or who to listen to.

For those of us who grew up in church being told how to think, what rules to follow, and what deity to believe in, Hama is here to help you find what you believe for yourself. We provide a safe space to express yourself and ask the questions that have been burning inside you. 

We’re not following a doctrine, gurus, or prophets. We’re giving you access to everything you need to think for yourself while connecting with others doing the same. And it all happens within a supportive community built around our shared quest for bettering our lives.
