Transformation Awaits
Discover what happens when people step away from the noise of everyday life and reconnect with themselves in paradise.
The video below was created when this experience was originally scheduled as a New Year’s retreat before Hurricane Melissa passed through Jamaica. Since then, the dates have moved to March 19–23, yet the heart of the experience remains the same.
Watch to get a feel for the spirit of the journey, the community we create, and the kinds of transformational moments people experience together. The only difference now is that we’re gathering during the Spring Equinox instead of counting down the new year.
If the energy in this video speaks to you, we’d love to have you join us.

YS Falls
Explore YS Falls. Zipline if you dare!
Online information:
YS Falls opened in 1992. It is a nature-based attraction offering the opportunity to experience the beauty of the waterfalls surrounded by lush gardens and magnificent trees. There are seven tiered waterfalls, several which cascade into natural pools. Some areas are fairly rocky and river shoes are recommended.
YS is the shortest place name in Jamaica. The current owners, the Browne family, acquired YS in 1887 when their great grand Uncle John travelled to London to purchase another property in St. Ann, Jamaica. When he arrived, that property had already been sold! He decided to buy YS, never having seen it before, and it has been in the family ever since.
YS was originally a cane farm, with a working sugar factory. YS Estate also supplied logwood for export to Europe, where the heart of the logwood tree was used for the purpose of making dye. However, with the introduction of synthetic dyes, the need for logwood dwindled, and sugar production across Jamaica decreased over time. In the 1960’s sugarcane was phased out altogether, and the Browne family decided to focus on breeding Pedigreed Red Poll Cattle and Thoroughbred Race horses.
Our personal experience:
The falls are very beautiful even though they were murky on the day that we went. The water is cooler so I suggest a quick dunk to get acclimated. This is an easy hike on the actual falls.
Rebirthing Breathwork & Sound Bath followed by Concert
Join us as we relax in the downstairs Serenity room with a soothing sound bath with Chakra singing bowls. We will be taken through an incredible experience with certified Big Glow Breathwork Practitioner Kathy Stringer. From a relaxed state, we then move into a healing revitalization with a healing concert by John Stringer.
Craft Market
For all of your shopping and souvenir needs, this craft market has multiple shops with artisans wood working and basket weaving right before your eyes. You can even customize your wood sculptures and pieces by having the artists carve your name into the piece. Sun dresses and beautiful garments can be made to order to your exact size.
Learn to cook Jamaican food
Have you ever wanted to know how we cook that delicious meal? We encourage you to get in the kitchen to make a communal meal. If you are not one that enjoys this, you can be our taste testers. Buy spices and bring them back stateside at the market or even in the airport duty free. When you get back, you can surprise your friends and loved ones with a taste of the islands. Learn to cook the meal the way that our family feeds each other. Authentic meals the way that grandma made them!
Our dish: Jamaican Ital Stew Recipe Jamaican Ital Stew is a hearty and flavorful dish rooted in the Rastafari tradition, focusing on natural, plant-based ingredients. The term "Ital" comes from "vital," signifying a diet essential for well-being and a connection to nature.
Note: Ital cooking generally avoids processed foods and emphasizes natural ingredients. Some strict interpretations avoid iodized salt, preferring sea or kosher salt instead.
Breakfast and Closing Circle
As we leave this time together, we encourage you to share your thoughts on your experience of the time together. Enjoy your last day on the island, and promise to come back soon to her healing waters! Special thanks for the Phoenix Serenity team. Big up yourself and Blessed love.
