The Experts

The Crown Jewels of your weekend

Five experts. One intimate weekend. Only 3 passes left.

Four days of wellness, beauty and celebrity styling, captured on location and published in print. Here is what sets The Aura Experience apart.

The Inner Foundations: A More Aligned You. Quiet moments, deeper conversations, intentional practices and a lasting glow, woven throughout the weekend. 1. Intention and journaling: guided prompts to reflect, set intentions and return home with a clear vision. 2. Rest and reflection: intentional downtime by the pool to reset and integrate. 3. Meaningful connection: a supportive community of like-minded women. 4. The Aura lifestyle: nourishing food, movement, beauty rituals and mindset practices, with simple tools to continue your glow up at home. It all connects to create your aura, elevated.

The Return on Your Investment

What your pass is really worth

Total value$11,500+

Book a private home, work privately with five industry experts, hire a nutrition coach, join a high-caliber women's circle and secure a spread in an international luxury magazine on your own, and it would cost well over $11,500.

We've brought it all together into one seamless, all-inclusive experience. You aren't just buying a ticket. You're investing in the environment and the network that will carry you to your next breakthrough.
