The Remembering Retreat
A three-night women's retreat led by Melanie Spring
OFFLINE IMMERSIVE WomeN's Retreat
You are more powerful than you know
There's something in you stirring.
Your dreams are becoming more potent, maybe even dangerous.
Your intuition is heightened and your knowing is loud.
You're finding that you're more unsettled these days.
You are becoming clearer and clearer that the path you're on is NOT the one you desire for yourself. And you've tried everything to find clarity and direction, yet something in you feels powerful beyond understanding.
But where do you go?
Who do you ask?
What do you even say?
If it helps–you're not going crazy. You're just more powerful than you know.
And this retreat was created especially for you.
Attending Melanie’s 3-day retreat in beautiful Vero Beach, FL was a truly transformative experience. I arrived not knowing anyone else attending, and left feeling deeply connected to ten intelligent, accomplished, and incredibly talented women who became true soul sisters.
From start to finish, Melanie and her wonderful assistant, Davette, created an environment of genuine care, safety, and trust. They were attentive to our individual needs and curated every element of the retreat with thoughtfulness and intention. The setting was ideal — a peaceful home just steps from the beach and across from a tranquil park. We were fortunate to experience the magic of a full moon over the ocean during an evening gathering.
Each day offered opportunities for reflection, healing, and personal growth — from guided exercises and journaling to a powerful burning ceremony that encouraged release and renewal. The nourishing meals, comfortable accommodations, and unexpected touches — such as a restorative sound bath and intuitive in-home massages — elevated the experience even further.
There were moments of sheer joy and laughter, and others that were raw and vulnerable, bringing tears and deep release. Through it all, Melanie and Davette created a safe space where we could show up fully as ourselves. Everything was designed to support healing, reflection, and renewal. I left refreshed, grounded, and profoundly grateful for the experience — and the sisterhood it created.
I highly recommend spending time with Melanie to experience her magic!

Find & explore your gifts in community
When I first began tapping into my own gifts of seeing others as they will be, feeling other people's energy, and huge intuitive hits that came out of nowhere, I began to feel crazy. I couldn't decipher what was mine or what "it" was trying to tell me. Thankfully, I had magical beings in my life who knew the answers and could help me find my own.
At first, I thought I was going crazy. And it wasn't until I had other women see me for who I really am that I was able to begin to hone my gifts while letting go of how my gifts looked to the world I knew.
Through years of plant medicine, spiritual practices, and deep healing, I have found that it's not about the one-on-one work as much as it is sitting in groups of other women who are also diving into who they really are. Women who are willing to share their own gifts without pause with other women.
The only way we can fully explore ourselves is in community with other women who are doing the same.
Practice your magic in community
Over the course of three nights, The Remembering unfolds in a slow, sweet collaborative effort as each attendee brings forth their own magical presence in powerful community–without worrying about being “the weird one.”
We'll be moving in lock step together with healing ceremonies, soul-stirring conversations, quiet time, and play time to unearth and reclaim the voice you’ve always had. The magic you've forgotten.
You'll walk away with deep friendships, clarity on life and work, and a better understanding of who you really are. Learn about other powerful women's routines, rituals, and ways of being
About The Retreat
What will happen?
Think of your most magical beach vacation with your best girlfriends where you cook together, walk the beach, dive into deep soul-filling conversations, laugh together, and snuggle close while wiping each other's tears. It's that and so much more. (And if you've never experienced this, it will be everything you dreamed of)
Through ancient & modern rituals and ceremonies, you'll be guided to go deep into yourself to clear out old stories, traumas, and patterns in order to find clarity and truth.
Creative one-on-one and group sessions will be set up to give you time to practice sharing your truth, your magic, and your power without apology or questioning yourself.
Soft music, incense and journaling or skipping on the beach at sunrise–whatever you need to integrate what you're learning will be available to you. You'll go back home refreshed.
YOU GET TO CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE
Although I am a master at planning out a soul-filling retreat, I also know that every woman is different and we each need our own way of experiencing our healing. So, you get to make this retreat your own by deciding how you want to play.

About a year ago, I began working with Melanie on deep healing for both myself and my husband. We started with a retreat, and at the time, it felt like our lives had been forever changed for the better. But as life has a way of showing us, one weekend wasn’t enough to unravel everything we were carrying. So, we kept coming back.
For me, the process has felt like walking into the house of my own mind—opening every door, turning on every light, and finally seeing and processing what was hiding in the shadows. Melanie has been the steady, compassionate guide through that journey, offering the kind of support that gave me the courage to face the hardest things. She asks the questions no one else dares to ask, and in doing so, she has helped me go deeper than 30 years of therapy ever could.
The work hasn’t always been pretty, but it has always been infused with love, laughter, and a sense of safety. Melanie carries an ancient wisdom, as if she somehow knows everything—yet she continually reminds me that I already hold the answers within myself. That reminder alone has been life-changing.
I am endlessly grateful for the work she is doing in my life, in my marriage, and in the world. Truly, there is life before Melanie, and then there is life with her—more beautiful, expansive, and limitless than I ever could have imagined.

Our four-day experience has been curated over years of experience to bring you deep, lasting change.
Before going to Hama House I was feeling broken — burdened by childhood wounds I didn’t even fully understand. Through her deep compassion and unwavering presence she held space for me in a way that allowed my inner child to be seen, heard, and gently healed.
The work we did together felt divinely guided, releasing generational pain and reconnecting me with the truth of who I truly am. And I found the safety to finally face the pain I had been carrying for years. Healing those parts of myself allowed me to show up fully in my marriage for the first time.
Our relationship is now grounded in honesty, vulnerability, and love. And most importantly our marriage has undergone and profound healing rooted in healthier communication and mutual understanding — something I never thought possible.and not only that, I also found a new family and they were all there for me also, we all healed in the most beautiful way possible.
I will always be grateful for Melanies role in this transformation. 5 stars 10/10 recommend going to Hama House for The Remembering.

We provide guidance and healing for people who are committed to the path of personal growth, transformation, and becoming more authentic versions of themselves.
What kind of sessions can I expect?
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 Returning 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.
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."
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.
I have been working with Melanie for 2 years. I’ll admit when I first started, I was afraid, intimidated, hiding; from people, places, things but mostly from myself.
Unsure if I wanted to look at things and terrified of what I might find.It has been 2 solid years of Melanie seeing me, gentle and persistently encouraging me and loving me into my full self.Last weekend, I said yes to me. Surrounded by our soul family and her loving support, I took the time to truly fall in love with me. For the first time in my life I was able to see the “Beauty for Ashes” and see all my past “darkness” as COURAGE.
Healing doesn’t have to be hard. The hard part is releasing your limiting beliefs and saying yes to YOU.
Thank you Melanie for believing in me long before I believed in myself and for providing a loving and safe place for people to open up and become who they are meant to be
xoxo

Welcome to Hama
We provide guidance and healing for people who are committed to the path of personal growth, transformation, and becoming more authentic versions of themselves.
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 Remembering 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.
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
Leaders of Hama
How do I put into words the metamorphosis that is spending time with Melanie…?
I have prided myself on being an “awakened” being. In being conscious in my movements in this world. Oh how silly that version of me seems now.From the moment we met she has altered my perception on both others and myself. I am still baffled that after our first moment “she wasn’t trying to sell me anything… .” That was merely the beginning.
The way in which she engages my mind and soul has altered both; along with my body and my life.I knew I wanted to experience and know more. When I asked her about working with me the mention of the cost did give me pause as I had fears and doubts on spending any amount on myself much less on something that didn’t feel as though there was a tangible exchange. I guffaw now at that person and how small they were thinking.
Something inside me knew this was bigger and urged me to abandon caution and take the leap. That was the first shift. By saying yes to myself in that small way I shall never be the same.
Surprise after surprise, I found ways to come up with the currency needed for experience.Worth every penny.
I didn’t have my idea what I was expecting just that I wanted more. And oh boy did I get more than I could have dreamed.Again, I felt as though, I am an “enlightened being” oh but I was just a night light next to a star.It has been less than a week since my transformation and still pieces of my life fall into place like never before.My business was stifling, my relationship tanking, my friendships shallow, and my body numb. And I was wholly unaware. Within 6 hours of her retreat I felt as though I had not known myself at all. And mourned the passing of all my delusions. Surely that was enough. I am fixed. Laughter erupts from me again at how small I thought of myself and her insight.After day two, I truly will and hope to never be the same again.I feel she now needs a disclaimer: Do not work with Melanie Spring if you want your life to feel or seem the same in anyway; ever again.Not only do I crave radical honesty from myself and those around me but I have the peace inside to withstand it.Going back to “reality” after; I felt like Alice leaving wonderland.
Yet, unlike other religious retreats and experiences I had gone through this was tangible this was true. I walk different. Move different. Experience all my senses different. Truly felt as though I collapsed into a puddle of goo and was rebuilt, reformed, reconstituted into an entirely different being. (Some who did not even know I did anything have even commented I look different.)By saying yes to myself this one time; my life has in one week been unlocking and shifting as though gears and cogs all around me were stuck and finally greased and loosened back into motion.
Like keys had found locks and doors had blown open.If you feel any type of question that she could help you. Say yes! You will find yourself a butterfly unfettered by gravity after doing so.I don’t know what else this life has in store for me but what I do know. The person I have become from working with Melanie Spring is not only ready to receive it but is capable of wanting and getting the life I only kept foolishly hidden in my wildest dreams.If nothing else, by saying yes to working with Melanie I have given myself the greatest gift of my 40 years of life and I will not be the same ever again.
Amen!
Aho!
And so it is!
