What are Women's Retreats?

A women's retreat is more than just a girls' holiday. Retreat literally means to ‘withdraw' .

While a retreat should always be fun and relaxing, it's unlikely that you'll spend your time lounging with Pina-colada in hand.

Retreats tend to have a much more significant outcome based on your attendance and require you to 'withdraw for a specified period of time.

A women's retreat is generally spiritually, physically, or emotionally driven and is aimed at encouraging ladies to humdrum of their routine and focus on specific issues within.

a women's retreats vary in length of time depending on what they hope to achieve, but they give their attendees enough time to break away from day-to-day life.

Maybe two or three days is all that's required to take stock of issues and strategies moving forward.

So if it’s simply the cocktails and poolside you're looking for, then girls holiday it is; because when you attend a retreat you're going to have some work to do.

Benefits of Women's Retreats?

There’s no doubt that as our lives get busier, as a rule of thumb, women are spending more time on their families and careers and less time on themselves.

What this means is that no matter how much women are aware that they may have lost sight of their beliefs, viewpoints, personal development, or wellbeing, it can be hard to give them the attention they deserve.

There are many benefits of attending a women's retreat some of which are as follows:

Time to focus

A women's retreat provides a woman with the time to focus and reconnect with herself. With no day-to-day distractions, women can really look hard within at the reasons they're there in a retreat in the retreat in the first place.

Create authenticity

In day-to-day life, women are involved in many relationships, each of which requires a slight difference in their personality. On any day a woman is a boss, partner, daughter, sister, or a mum. Regardless of age, we get used to acting a certain way around certain people and time at a retreat gives women the opportunity to connect with themselves in a truly authentic fashion without conforming to behaviors that others have come to expect of them.

One on one time with a professional

If it's spiritual guidance, counselling, rehabilitation, or nutritional guidance you need (for example), regular counselling in your normal setting may not be enough. At a women's destination retreat, a professional is generally accessible for a lot longer than a weekly one-hour session and will help you dive deeper into your issues in a shorter timeframe.

Rest and recharge

One of the most important elements of a women's wellness is self-care, and at a retreat, time to relax will definitely be on the agenda. We promote you with good healthy nutrition, exercise and will also help you reset sleep patterns which regardless of the specific issue you're hoping to address, will all play a part in your general wellbeing.
