A Well Rested Woman Retreat
The Light Returns
A Spring Equinox Sacred Reawakening
As winter loosens its grip and light returns, so too can we soften. The Spring Equinox is nature’s turning point, a sacred threshold between stillness and awakening, inner reflection and outer becoming.
Join us for a deeply restorative and enlivening 2-night retreat designed to align your body, mind and spirit with this natural moment of rebirth.
This is not a quick escape.
It’s a sacred return to what’s most true within you.
ALL INCLUSIVE LUXURY 2 NIGHT Wellness Retreat in Highland Perthshire choose from *** - *** or *** - ***
Held during the potent portal of the Spring Equinox, this intimate 2-night retreat is designed to reconnect you to your inner rhythm and awaken your energy after the long winter.
In the quiet beauty of the Highlands, you’ll be gently guided to shed what no longer serves, plant the seeds of new beginnings, and come home to the woman you’re becoming.
This is an invitation to rise - rooted, replenished, radiant.
Well Rested Woman Retreat Venue
One of the places I was able to find deep rest and retrain my strung out nervous system was on retreat. To have some time completely removed from my day to day, where I didn’t have to plan dinner and the only ‘work’ to be done was to rest and allow and heal was a game changer for me.
The other life changing thing I discovered on retreat is although being still can be challenging, and indeed sometimes we use life to distract us from our truth, when we can learn to sit with ourselves without the constant distractions, if we can come to stillness the answers we seek become louder, we tune into our intuition and the way forward more easily makes itself known.
That experience, and all I learned from it together with all the knowledge I have gained in training in many healing modalities over the years I want to share with you. I’ve allowed myself to rest, to explore different ways of resting, in nature, on retreat, with various tools & techniques. I’ve developed an intimate experience of stillness and silence beyond the noise of the world and I want to share my insights and experiences with you. I want you to feel well rested too and to see you in the joy of living your life from a well rested place. I want you to meet your well rested woman.
““The best thing you can do for yourself is book this retreat! You’ll be getting to know yourself again in a beautiful supportive environment and leave feeling whole again. 10/10 recommend!””

Your Retreat starts as soon as you book your place
Often the messaging we hear around us and sometimes inside our own head regarding rest is one of pushing through, being busy all the time, there isn’t enough time to rest or maybe you feel guilty prioritising yourself. Simply by making your booking you are choosing for something else. Choosing to rest, choosing to relax to restore your energy levels. To go on our retreat sends a powerful message which is a wonderful antidote to all of this. When we give to ourselves we are in a much better place to meet the demands of life and to give to others.
Subconscious Reprogramming
30 days before the beginning of your retreat you will be sent a deeply relaxing hypnotherapy audio to listen to regularly before your retreat. Your hypnotherapy audio will help you begin to relax and prepare for your retreat experience. Hypnotherapy is a wonderful way to help you make significant and positive changes in a relatively short period of time. The hypnotherapy audio will help you look forward to a well rested future and is deeply nourishing. It might be lovely to listen do as you drift off to sleep.
