Retreat. Restore. Recharge.
Fri, 15th - Sun, 17th October 2021
After a busy Summer, Autumn calls us to retreat, restore and recharge.
During this women’s retreat we will come into stillness, connect with our inner source and root ourselves deeply within ancient feminine wisdom.
Taking gentle care of ourselves and our bodies, we will relax deeply through restorative Yoga and massage. To reclaim our strength, we will follow the mother line and journey back to source at the mystical dragon’s cave on Brac.
Tapping into the energy of ancient priestesses, we will reground ourselves to live in ease, serenity and beauty.
