Living in the United States: Between Ambition, Performance… and the Need to Slow Down
A land of opportunity and diversity, the United States welcomes a large French community each year, drawn by professional dynamism, constant innovation, and a stimulating lifestyle. But living abroad, even in such an attractive country, can also come with a fast-paced rhythm, adaptation challenges, and sometimes a sense of isolation.
To support this reality, Wellness Voyages offers French expatriates in the United States well-being retreats designed to be experienced locally, in their native language, and in harmony with their lifestyle. These experiences are held in carefully selected venues and come in three complementary formats.
First, two-day well-being programs that offer a precious break to unwind, reconnect with oneself, and build connections with other French people living locally. Then, well-being days organized within French companies and institutions established in the United States, to strengthen team cohesion while promoting workplace wellness. Finally, more immersive multi-day retreats designed for those who wish to take a deeper breath, without necessarily leaving the country.
Whatever the format, each retreat is an invitation to slow down, refocus, and take care of yourself… while reconnecting with others, right here in the United States.
Moments for Yourself
in the United States, days are busy, expectations are high, and the pace is fast. Whether you’re working or have followed your partner on this adventure, it’s easy to get absorbed by a structured and demanding daily routine.
Even when everything seems fine on the surface, it’s valuable to give yourself moments to breathe, release pressure, and nurture your inner balance.
Breathe, Without Disrupting Your Daily Life
Living in the United States means being at the heart of a constantly moving world, full of opportunities, but also sometimes marked by isolation or the pressures of daily life. These well-being experiences, designed for French people living locally, offer a chance to connect, feel understood, and reconnect with a uniquely French sense of well-being. Because taking care of yourself here and now, in a familiar and supportive environment, also means grounding yourself more deeply in your life abroad.
