Women's Wellness Retreat 2024

What is it to be a woman in 2024?

The joys…and the challenges…

Where are we thriving?

Where are we surviving?

You’re welcome to our annual 1 day women’s wellness retreat where we dive deep on a journey through the feminine….

A chance to reflect and expand with transformative practices – including a Breathwork Journey, Pleasure & Sexual Healing, Somatics, a Cacao Ceremony, Yin Yoga and Sound Healing.

You’re held by highly experienced guides/teachers include Temple of the Feminine, Joanna Miller, Cherelle Sappleton and Anna Brook.

This is about offering you the space to expand out to the bigger picture away from the everyday…

What do you desire more of?

What do you desire less of?

A space to share what you choose and be fully heard

A space to explore your boundaries

Deepen your connection to pleasure

And release the weightier layers

So that you can raise your consciousness and feel more spacious and free

Stepping into your power

Alongside opening your heart

A chance to recharge and rejuvenate

And welcome in sparks of positive change

To come together in circle and sisterhood…

We invite you to come gather…back to the village.

Your Facilitators & Sessions

Finding Power in Pleasure

Temple of the Feminine

Join Amy for a gentle yet deep exploration of sensuality and pleasure as personal power. As women we have often been conditioned to suppress or separate from the connection we have to our body and the natural sensations of pleasure that are available to it. Yet, through the portal of pleasure we can find relaxation, healing and empowerment. Through group discussion, permissive practices & self reflection, you will be guided to re-connect to pleasure as your birth right. Although we will be discussing sexuality and similar themes during this session there will be no nudity involved and everything is an invitation. Bring your curiosity and prepare to leave expanded!
