Spring Detox Retreat
2 night retreat May 11-13 From $345

Summer Detox Retreat
6 nights July 9-15 From $995
Come together with other motivated women to discover a new level of wellness. The focus for these retreats will be on a gentle juice/raw foods cleanse. Using nutrition, movement, self-awareness exercises, meditation, as well as reflective time alone, participants will gain a better understanding of themselves and be able to take positive steps to achieve a happier, healthier life.
This highly experiential retreat will appeal to you if:

• you are committed to developing healthy lifestyle habits to achieve a greater level of fitness, heighten energy levels and reduce stress
• you feel that working towards your goal for a healthier body with others who have the same focus would work for you
• you recognize that a holistic approach makes sense and are prepared to take this on for yourself
• you need to/have been meaning to look at the issue of self-regeneration
• you learn by doing and are open to new experiences
• you realise you've been putting off doing something like this for your self and your body; no more excuses
• you have trouble sticking with a change process and feel having others "in the same boat" will be encouraging
• you equally value group learning with like minded women and having time to yourself

Raw, Raw, Raw Retreat From $345
June 22-24
As we embrace the arrival of summer, it’s a perfect time to explore the culinary wonders of raw cuisine. While this may not be a lifestyle you wish to embrace wholeheartedly, we all know that incorporating more veggies in our diet is what our bodies need to thrive. During this weekend, you’ll have the opportunity to savour some delectable dishes, including desserts, that pack flavour and nutritional punch. You’ll also get to participate in a cooking workshop that introduces you to simple techniques to re-create these dishes at home. Trust me, this weekend will not be about deprivation. I promise you’ll return home satisfied, inspired and motivated to eat healthier.
