MBS Restorative Retreats

Couples Return to Wholeness Experiences

Helping Couples Reconnect, Restore & Realign

Healthy relationships require more than love.

They require emotional safety, intentional communication, trust, understanding, vulnerability, accountability, and a willingness to grow together.
At MBS Global Wellness™, our Couples Return to Wholeness Experiences™ are designed to help couples strengthen their connection, improve ommunication, rebuild trust, deepen intimacy, and create healthier relationship patterns.
Whether you are preparing for marriage, strengthening an already healthy relationship, rebuilding after challenges, or seeking a deeper reset, our experiences provide practical tools, guided support, and intentional space for growth.

Our Relationship Wellness Philosophy

Every relationship experiences seasons. Some seasons require growth. Some require healing. Some require reconnection.

Our Couples Return to Wholeness™ experiences are guided by our signature framework:

Pause
Reflect
Release
Restore
Realign

Move forward intentionally with shared vision, healthier communication, and stronger partnership.

🌺 Rooted in Love™

A Culturally Grounded Couples Experience

Led using principles from Dr. John Gottman’s The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work, and grounded in clinical training from The 10 Principles for Doing Effective Couples Therapy — integrated with our own culturally-grounded Return to Wholeness framework.

 

Rooted in Love exists because The Seven Principles, on its own, didn’t fully capture the real experiences of Black and brown couples. This program uses some of that same evidence base — and goes further: most couples aren’t lacking love, they’re carrying stress, unhealed patterns, and pressures the world outside the relationship never stops applying. Grounded in real research on Black, Caribbean, and Latino/Hispanic couples’ experiences — not a generic template.

What this covers:

Formats and pricing:

Rooted in Love: Couples Retreat

For couples ready to go further than a session or a weekend can hold. This is Rooted in Love at its deepest — the same five stages, the same culturally grounded framework, held as a private, immersive retreat in Jamaica, away from every routine and role that quietly crowds out real connection at home.

Six days, starting at $6,500/couple. Early Summer 2027.

Frequently Asked Questions

What if we don't finish the program?

That's your choice to make at any point, no penalty and no judgment. Some couples complete the full arc; others find what they need in fewer sessions.

Is this only for couples in crisis?

No — this program serves couples wanting to strengthen an already-good relationship just as much as couples working through real strain.

Do you take insurance?

This is a private-pay program, not billed through insurance. Ask about payment plans if cost is a barrier.

Rooted in Love: Premarital

Real Preparation, Not a Formality.

Most premarital counseling assumes the wedding proceeds no matter what. This doesn’t. Across six sessions, explore what you each inherited about marriage, build the skills that will actually be tested later, and honestly check whether this is a marriage you’re both choosing clearly. Fulfills most church and faith-community requirements, with a signed Certificate of Completion.

🌴 Couples Return to Wholeness™ Retreat

North Carolina | Early Summer 2027

This is the same five-stage method behind Rooted in Love, held as a private, immersive retreat near Lake Norman, North Carolina, away from the routines and roles that can quietly crowd out real connection.
