"Template" is mentioned because retreats require a delicate balance, as do all things. I have learned while hosting these retreats that to truly be in the present moment it also requires being deeply aware of the needs of that present moment. So, often we have a plan, and the plan is amazing- but we also embrace adaptability, non-attachment and trust that all is as it should be.

Guaranteed, your experience will be magical. Also, guaranteed- the right souls will gather here for this retreat. 

So, what does "balance" mean to you? How are you seeking to live a more balanced life? Will coming on this retreat help you find balance? What feels off balanced in your world? 

For us, we have hosted, created or attended these last 7 women's retreats where we have all experienced deep healing for ourselves as well as deep healing within our feminine bonds. We have dedicated ourselves to our own personal growth and evolution which has created more meaningful and intimate relationships in our lives. It has been some of the most life changing, introspective work I have had the honor of being a part of. 

During this last retreat, Sacred, we all sunk into the idea of our own personal importance within ourselves, our relationships and our community. What role we play, who we are and what we are dedicated to. And at the end of the day, what was important to all of us and what we are all deeply dedicated to is living a happy, healthy and well balanced life. Together.

And the question then becomes, how do we include the masculine? And why "Balance"? Well... How do we find balance within the feminine + masculine? In ourselves, in our relationships and in our communities? And more importantly, how do we hold space for one another's evolution? This is by no means a couples retreat- although, I am sure there will be much to gain in contemplation.

This retreat is about finding balance, whether that is within yourself, relationships or community or if it is simply the need to balance a hectic schedule out with a relaxing, fun and inspiring retreat for yourself.

Thank you for considering us, you will not be disappointed.

A couple testimonials from past retreat guests:

"I've had the incredible opportunity to attend two life-changing retreats. These transformative experiences were precisely what I needed when I felt lost, unsupported, and lacking motivation, craving a sense of belonging. These retreats provide an invaluable connection to the collective consciousness of the feminine divine, enabling you to harmonize your energy with a group of truly remarkable women. Bonnie's retreats offer access to a unique set of spiritual gifts cultivated by extraordinary beings, all set in the most breathtaking locations. Within this sacred space, I felt truly seen, heard, and uplifted by an indescribable energy that can only be likened to the divine. To say the experience was magical would be an understatement."

"My life has been changed thanks to attending these magical retreats. I have felt right at home, and welcomed with open arms to be able to express my true authentic self. Not only have I learned incredible life lessons, I have also created lifelong relationships that I cherish. When we join together in community, we support one another and also learn from each other. Reminded that we are all part of a bigger picture, we help each other to find our gifts and embrace our genuine beings. I am eternally grateful for this family and our life experience together."
