An Invitation
Dear beautiful souls,
We are excited to announce and invite you to our upcoming Women’s Healing Retreat 2024.
Join us and 12 other women in a sacred space, Nuestra Tierra Creative Village in Ecuador’s cloudforest, to rekindle your innate wildness, an ancient force that resides within each of us women. As the flames flicker in the maloka – the heart of our communal space – we will delve into the depths of our souls, awakening the dormant whispers of our inner spiritual guides. Over the course of 7 days, you will gradually feel how the primal rhythms of nature reconnect with the essence of your being.
In the quiet of this retreat (no internet or electricity to distract us :), the echoes of ancestral wisdom resonate. Here is an invitation to rediscover the forgotten language of our souls and true nature.
Join a team of seasoned medicine woman as well as a sisterhood of explorers. Together, let’s traverse the landscapes of our own wilderness, bravely facing the uncomfortable and unraveling the tapestry of our existence and embracing the untamed beauty that lies within.
This 7 day Women’s Healing Retreat is not just an event—it’s an immersion into the sacred dance of self-discovery, where the wilderness of our spirits converges with the wisdom of the ages.
Register soon! These retreats are only held 1 or 2 times a year.
