Comfort Zone Retreats
Adventure | Wellness | Community
Join us for our transformative Adventure-Wellness retreats to reset, reconnect, and remember what you are capable of.
Embrace adventure, wellness, and authentic connections amidst breathtaking natural beauty.
About Comfort Zone Retreats
Comfort Zone Retreats aren’t just vacations, they are immersive resets that blend breathtaking adventures in nature with guided inner work, yoga, somatic breathwork, and more.
We create a safe, judgment-free community where you can unplug from screens, release stress, and reconnect with your truest self.
Unlike traditional retreats that focus solely on relaxation, we combine adventure, nervous system regulation, wellness practices, inner work, and authentic connection so you return home with lasting transformation, new tools for life, and friendships that feel like family.
About Ellie Rome
Comfort Zone Retreats Founder & Leader
Ellie Rome is the founder and lead facilitator of Comfort Zone Retreats, dedicated to creating spaces where people can unplug from the noise, reconnect with themselves, and step into new possibilities.
A former chemical engineer turned functional nutrition counselor and emotional eating coach, after transforming her own health and life through holistic practices, she felt called to guide others in doing the same. Ellie left her career in chemical engineering and spent 9 years coaching clients on gut health, autoimmune healing, emotional eating, and food/sugar addiction recovery.
Ellie is a certified yoga teacher, breathwork facilitator, and community builder who began hosting yoga, breathwork, and cold plunge events in Austin, TX in 2019. What started as small gatherings quickly grew into a thriving community of more than 4,000 people seeking connection, healing, and adventure.
Through Comfort Zone Retreats, Ellie blends her background in science, wellness, nutrition, and mindfulness with her passion for adventure, nature, and community.
Each retreat is designed to help participants reset their nervous system, explore the outdoors, cultivate meaningful habits, and engage in conscious conversations: all while surrounded by supportive people who are investing in their own growth.
Ellie believes in a holistic approach to wellness: one that integrates body, mind, and spirit, and she’s passionate about helping others build sustainable practices that ripple out into every area of life. Whether leading yoga on a beach in Kauai, hiking through Zion, or guiding a group breathwork session, her mission is to help people feel more alive, connected, and empowered.
