The Adventure Within
Dr. Lara Hill & Dr. Tim Zook
July 2-6, 2026
To give, to love, to serve, to adventure
This retreat is designed to realign you with the deeper calling that brought you into this work, your purpose, your service, and the quiet voice within that has always guided your path. Over our time together, you’ll step away from the noise and return to the foundational principles that keep your heart anchored and your mission clear.
We’ll explore the power of routines rooted in intention, sacred time to connect with God, and habits that support a life lived fully aligned with your calling. Through quiet time doing the inner work and practical tools you can bring into your daily rhythm, you’ll strengthen not only your structure, but your spirit.
Our goal-setting sessions go far beyond strategy or planning. Together, we’ll uncover the “why” beneath your goals, helping you discern what is truly yours to do. You’ll cultivate a deep practice of listening for spirit-guided direction, allowing your vision to flow from purpose rather than pressure. This is where clarity becomes conviction, and conviction becomes impact.
This retreat is for those who feel deeply connected to the timeless principles of service, above-down thinking, and living with unwavering purpose. For those who know they are called, chosen, and positioned to serve humanity with clarity of mind and purity of heart.
At the heart of this experience is a Statement of Lasting Purpose: to give, to love, to serve, to do without expectation of anything in return.
This guiding truth anchors every session, every conversation, and every step of the journey.
By the end of our time together, you will leave with a great stirring of the spirit within, a renewed sense of mission, strengthened daily practices, and a clear, purpose-driven vision for the road ahead, one that is guided not by ambition alone, but by divine direction and the bigness of the work you were created to do.
The Venue
ION Adventure Hotel is a minimalist luxury retreat set atop ancient lava fields near Þingvellir National Park, offering a striking blend of raw Icelandic nature and elevated wellness. Powered by geothermal energy, the hotel features a warm outdoor pool, the serene Lava Spa, panoramic floor-to-ceiling views, and a glass-walled Northern Lights bar that feels suspended above the landscape. With its eco-conscious design, modern Nordic dining, and immediate access to waterfalls, hot springs, and volcanic trails, ION serves as a breathtaking sanctuary for restoration, adventure, and deeply immersive retreat experiences.
Getting There
Fly into Keflavík International Airport (KEF), Iceland’s main international airport. From KEF, it’s about a 1 hour 20 minute drive to ION Adventure Hotel. Guests typically rent a car or book a private transfer for the scenic route through lava fields toward Þingvellir National Park. You can also fly into Reykjavík Domestic Airport (RKV) if arriving from elsewhere in Iceland—ION is roughly a 45-minute drive from downtown Reykjavík. The hotel sits in Nesjavellir, just east of Þingvellir, with clear signage leading you along the final mountain road into the geothermal valley.
Your Hosts.
Dr. Lara Hill and Dr. Tim Zook are leading this Iceland journey from a place of deep purpose and genuine love for the chiropractic profession. Both have walked the path of rediscovery themselves, and they’re passionate about helping chiropractors return to the heart of why they started. Dr. Lara brings a warm, grounding presence that makes everyone around her feel safe, supported, and seen. Dr. Tim brings thoughtful leadership and a gift for helping doctors reconnect with their confidence and intuition. Together, they’ll guide you through Iceland’s breathtaking landscapes while helping you peel back the layers, realign with your calling, and learn a daily practice that you’ll carry for the rest of your life. This retreat isn’t just about adjusting, it’s about remembering who you are as a healer and what you’re meant to bring into the world.
