Tucked into the misty forests of Washington’s Olympic Peninsula, the Wellness Center at Indigo Cove is an epic destination where few guests leave unchanged. Designed in harmony with its surroundings on the water’s edge, the renowned restoration retreat offers seven-day immersions for those standing at a crossroads in their lives. Each week throughout the retreat season, a small cohort arrives, usually telling friends and family they’re seeking rest and relaxation. In truth, they are carrying private reckonings: grief, resentment, and the ache of a life that no longer fits. Under the guidance of its brilliant director Dr. Iona MacQuarrie—a Scottish clinical psychologist shaped by both rigorous science and love of holistic health —guests are led through practices meant to restore the nervous system, quiet the mind, and awaken intuition. Breathwork, forest bathing, chakra balancing, and shadow work become part of a carefully held container for change as guests explore compassion and emotional risk, release and control, intuition and science, and relics of memories. When the Wellness Center owners direct Iona to hire the magnetic and enigmatic Kaan Arslan as co-facilitator, the methodical balance in Iona’s practice, and her personal life, change. Iona is led by her mind, pragmatic and practical. Kaan is led by his heart, always feeling, sensing, and discerning with his compassion. Many questions surface as she sees transformations often demand more courage than comfort will allow, especially if a threshold is to be crossed, including hers. Who will cross the threshold? If you are looking for a novel about mindfulness and life changes that provides an uplifting, thought provoking and engaging read keeping you wanting to know more about these characters, the Threshold at Indigo Cove delivers. Join the retreat as a reader guest and see how Iona and Kaan– two very different people–lead seven complex people on paths toward restoration and reinvention while these two leaders also decide how to deal with what they find in each other.
