HIYÄM Wellness Living, a sanctuary so exquisitely attuned to the human spirit that it feels less like a destination and more like a return. For visionaries, creators, and leaders who move through life with intention, HIYÄM has become the quiet luxury whispered among those who know: a global maison of transformation where refinement isn’t performed, but embodied.
A Global Maison Rooted in Soulful Simplicity
Founded in 2020 by Hiyäm Jabak and Frédéric Charland, HIYÄM Wellness Living is a privately held Canadian wellness maison with an international soul. What began as a nomadic atelier on the sea has evolved into a worldwide offering of tailor-made retreats, sensory immersions, and intimate corporate programs held in extraordinary settings—from the wild jungles of Panama to the crystalline serenity of French Polynesia.
Within this framework, HIYÄM exists to guide guests back to themselves through refined simplicity and luminous transformation. Each experience weaves somatic movement, ritual, artistry, and epicurean nourishment into an offering that feels both exquisitely human and quietly transcendent.
From oceanfront villas to immersive somatic journeys, every element—destination, experience, cuisine, and accommodation, is curated to create the most personal and refined wellness experience. Guests may choose from destinations such as Bali, Mallorca, French Polynesia, and beyond, with retreat styles ranging from private and semi-private to corporate immersions. Experiences unfold along a spectrum of depth, from gentle nervous-system resets to fully immersive somatic journeys, complemented by chef-led, plant-forward cuisine served in coastal villas or gastronomic dining in boutique sanctuaries. Signature offerings elevate each retreat further, including surfing, vineyard excursions, sailing, waterfalls, spa therapies, wine allocations, yacht days, and optional professional photo or video services. Pricing begins at USD 12,880 for private retreats, USD 9,550 per person for semi-private immersions, and USD 14,980 per person for corporate or leadership retreats.
The Philosophy: Luxury as Presence
At HIYÄM, wellness is not a program—it is a co-created journey. Guests are invited into a collaborative experience shaped around their desires, histories, and inner landscapes. This is slow luxury at its most intentional: handcrafted, intuitive, and rooted in the art of listening.
The maison’s philosophy is deeply influenced by founder Hiyäm Jabak, whose name—meaning “passion”—reflects her life’s work. Drawing from somatic studies, ancient martial traditions, and global cultural exploration, she has shaped an approach that unites movement, stillness, ritual, and conscious living into a seamless flow.
“HIYÄM Wellness Living was born from a devotion to the art of refinement, the kind of luxury that awakens, softens, and recalibrates the entire being,” Jabak shares. “Every experience blends somatic movement, epicurean nourishment, and sacred ritual in a way that feels intimate, elegant, and deeply human.”
Co-founder Frédéric Charland adds, “Luxury is not excess—it is presence. Our purpose is to co-create profound, tailor-made journeys that allow each guest to return to themselves with grace, resonance, and lasting harmony.”
Retreats Crafted with Precision, Intention & Artistry
HIYÄM’s retreats unfold in sanctuaries intentionally chosen for their raw beauty and intimacy. These are not crowded wellness hubs; they are quiet, elemental landscapes that mirror the truths guests are ready to meet.
Here, transformation becomes an orchestration of subtlety and depth, where sunrise movement sequences invite alignment, sacred tea ceremonies slow time into something almost poetic, and bespoke rituals are crafted around each guest’s personal story. Even nourishment is elevated, epicurean yet grounding, designed to restore rather than overwhelm. Every moment is infused with mindful precision, the kind of luxury that whispers, not shouts.
A Circle for the Soul-Ready Few
At the heart of the maison lies the HIYÄM Circle, a curated gathering of aligned seekers and leaders. These intimate experiences are designed not for the masses, but for those who sense life’s subtle layers and are ready to meet them with openness and grace. Belonging here is not announced; it is felt.
Returning to Oneself, Refined
Ultimately, HIYÄM Wellness Living exists for those who desire not merely rest, but resonance. For those who understand that clarity is the ultimate luxury. For those ready to step into a deeper, more refined relationship with themselves.
HIYÄM’s retreats do not simply invite you to step away from life—they invite you to step into it, fully awakened, softly powerful, exquisitely present.
