Inner Spirit Retreat

18 May 2023 @ 5:00 pm - 21 May 2023 @ 10:00 am

£450

Find Yourself And Release Your Inner Spirit At This 3-Night Women’s Wellbeing Retreat

All too often, as women, we put ourselves last. There might be kids to take care of, a job to hold down, or a business to run, a house to maintain, a partner to share life with or elderly parents to manage.

It is in our very nature to put others before ourselves and forget our own needs and self-care.

This retreat is an opportunity for a reset. A time to reflect on and redress the balance in your life.

It is not selfish to put yourself first – it’s a necessity.

After all, how can you care for others if you don’t take care of you?

Escape your usual routine for a few days to retreat into yourself and to bond with sisters in a beautiful, tranquil environment that will nurture your soul.

Hosted by certified mindfulness expert, Suz McDonald, you will journey to your inner wisdom and bring forth the confidence you are ready to show the world in the peace and tranquillity of the Scottish Highlands.

This retreat is for women over the age of 18 who are ready to put themselves first for a change.

What To Expect

A warm welcome awaits. An intention-setting ceremony will get us underway and we will be embracing the calming energies of the dark moon to take us deep within.

Walks in nature, mindful meditations, gentle yoga and healthy food all make for a better mind, body connection. Once we start to listen to our own inner wisdom we can choose new ways of being.
The retreat takes place in the foothills of the Cairngorm National Park, in the Scottish Highlands. Shared accommodation, healthy, plant-based meals and all activities are included in the price so that you can relax without worrying about any hidden extra costs.
