Women’s Wellbeing
& Breathwork Day Retreat
For Women. By Women.
This day was created for women who do it all —
and need a moment to come home to themselves.
Whether you’re navigating family, business, holding space for others, or quietly carrying the weight of the world for too long… this retreat is your reminder that you matter too.
We’ve woven together breathwork, movement, and nourishment in accessible ways that will restore your energy, nurture your nervous system, and reconnect you to your own strengths and abilities, on your terms.
