Women’s Retreat Day ~ A Sacred Return
7th September | Wasing Park
10am - 4:30pm
Welcome, love. It’s good to have you here.
We invite you to join us for Heart Alchemy, a retreat designed not as an escape from your life, but as a sacred return to it.
A loving and enriching ceremonial retreat is designed for women.
Heart Alchemy is an invitation to come home.
Not to a version of you that’s more polished or productive.
But to the real, unhurried, undemanding you the one that simply gets to be.
This is not just a retreat day.
It’s a sacred return.
A remembrance of what becomes possible when we slow down enough to listen.
To the body. To the breath. To the heart.
We need spaces like this more than ever.
We’re not meant to keep going without pause.
We’re not meant to hold it all alone.
This is a day to soften, unravel, and feel what it’s like to be deeply held — by nature, by rhythm, by each other.
Because when we create intentional space to rest and reconnect…
We don’t drift away from life
We return to it. More whole. More present. More resourced.
What to Expect
This day has been lovingly crafted to support your nervous system, awaken your inner wisdom, and restore your sense of self. You’ll be guided through a nourishing rhythm of:
- Somatic movement to awaken your body’s intelligence
- Restorative Yoga Nidra (Yogic Sleep) to release tension and access deep inner calm
- Guided meditation and breathwork to soothe and anchor
- Women’s Circle to be seen, heard, and held — without needing to perform or fix
- Moments of quiet and stillness to remember who you are beneath the noise
There is nothing you need to be here. No performance. No pressure. Just you.
The Magic of Retreat
There’s a quiet kind of magic that unfolds when we step out of the rush and into presence.
When breath deepens.
When the body softens.
When we remember: we were never meant to do this alone.
Retreat is not indulgence. It’s medicine.
It’s the doorway to rhythm, to truth, to aliveness.
The Alchemy of Circle
When women gather, something ancient stirs.
We speak. We listen. We rest. We remember.
This is the heart of Heart Alchemy, not fixing or improving, but being in our togetherness, we find our way home.
The Flow of the Day
Morning:
We’ll begin in Circle, arriving gently through guided breath, Yoga Nidra, and somatic movement.
Midday:
A delicious and nourishing vegetarian lunch will be shared in community ~ simple, wholesome, and grounding.
Afternoon:
We’ll soften into heart-centred practices: sharing circle, co-regulation, embodied movement, sound healing with Blanca, and spacious rest.
Close:
The day will end in a gentle ritual of reflection and integration, allowing you to land softly before re-entering the world, restored and reconnected.
Join Us
Whether you’re navigating change, seeking stillness, or simply longing for space to breathe, this retreat is for you.
Come as you are.
Leave with a deeper sense of yourself.
Grounded. Resourced. Radiant.
