Welcome to Positive Change Health and Lifestyles Retreats Center online. Our gifted directors, Jan O’Han and Michael Gallarano, founded Positive Change in 1991. Their founding vision for the center was to create a healing, restful setting from which you will uncover your inner peace, achieve a physical recuperation and attain an emotional nurturing. Positive Change is situated in Sebastian, Florida, a dedicated holistic community on Florida’s Indian River Lagoon. Our retreat programs at Positive Change draw from the life force of our natural surroundings to allow you rest and rejuvenation both physically and emotionally from the exhausting demands of our 21st. century lifestyles.
In addition to life reaffirming classes and treatments, you will receive quiet personal time in which to meditate, read and simply relax. We will restore health to your body through our unique nutritional program created by Jan O’Han. The principle of this program is a diet that balances juice fasting, raw food buffets and delicious organic whole food menus. In the serenity of our Holistic Spa, our caring team of natural health providers will treat your body to an extensive menu of restorative services. Our exclusive “Healthy Mind” coaching developed by Michael Gallarano, will guide you to a greater understanding of yourself and assist you in achieving balance and harmony within your life. You will begin each day with a peace giving meditation and yoga instruction as we prepare you for a rewarding daily retreat experience. Through the Positive Change Learning Center, opened earlier this year, we will teach you how best to maintain your health and emotional wellness upon leaving our center bringing the ability to rest and rejuvenate into your lifestyle.
As with all of life, our program draws upon the exhilarating power of happiness and laughter. Our retreat programs are rich with leisure activities designed to bring joy into your retreat. Leisure time at Positive Change offers concerts in the park and outdoor movies on the green, afternoon teas in the warmth of our lovely poolside terrace, guided tours of our treasured Pelican Island, our nation’s first National Wildlife Refuge, sunrise walks on pristine Atlantic Ocean beaches and beautiful golf courses and tennis courts within the community.
At Positive Change, we recognize that our most precious asset, our children and youth, are at an early age struggling with an overload on their fragile beings. We seek to bring families together for a wonderful family retreat experience that restores the natural rhythms of a healthy family life. Jan and Michael have a personal dedication to this mission as they are parents themselves and strive to preserve this balance within their family life.
Our clients will be staying at our local bed and breakfasts. We can accomodate in this way many but wish to limit our number of retreaters to 12 per week long retreat. In planning transportation to Positive Change, Sebastian is conveniently located within a 1½ hour driving distance from the Orlando International Airport that receives direct flights from most North American cities. We can arrange an airport pick-up to our facility. While our guest, a complimentary van service will transport you to our leisure activity sites.
We invite you to join us at Positive Change for a life altering experience. You may choose to join us for the brief respite of a three-day retreat experience or a more extended retreat sabbatical. Our dedicated Retreat Counselors are available to speak with you and design a personally rewarding retreat experience based on your individual needs. We look ahead to the day that you will arrive at Positive Change!
