Brenda Castano

I am the owner of Thera Retreats, where we host a variety of meditation and yoga retreats on our expansive property in Joshua Tree, California. However, my summers are spent in the charming village of Mirto, Sicily, where my grandparents once lived. My deep love for Sicily and the transformative experiences I've had there have inspired me to share its beauty and culture with others. With dual citizenship in America and Italy, I have a unique perspective and deep connection to both countries. This connection has prompted me to take our retreats internationally, offering participants an authentic and immersive experience in the heart of Sicily.
