Take home practices that will serve you long into the future, giving in to the opportunity to celebrate who you are. Nourish your body inside and out with our absolutely delicious organic vegetarian food, cooked with love by our incredible retreat chef Toni, from Ubuntu Kai .

Start each day with a flowing yoga class, followed by inspiring workshops, deep relaxation techniques and ample opportunity to wander the beautiful surroundings of our gorgeous retreat space.

This isn’t just a retreat—it’s an invitation to reconnect with the vibrant, sensual woman within you and let go of the “good girl” you’ve been told to be.   

It's a powerful journey to reclaim your sensual self.  To step into your womanly erotic power. 

 Three transformative days that will 

• awaken your erotic power 

• guide you back to your wild, soulful self—a woman who moves through life with confidence, joy, and unapologetic sensuality.  

​

• step into their full radiance

​

Whether you’re looking to reignite the spark in your relationship or reconnect with your own pleasure, this journey offers a safe, nurturing space to explore and expand your sexual energy.  

This retreat is focused on learning 7 sacred sexuality practices—profound, yet simple tools to help you awaken your sensual energy, deepen your connection to your body and create the intimacy that’s soulful, exciting, and deeply fulfilling. 

You’ll also explore the facets of your womanly sexuality, expanding from just one familiar way of being in lovemaking to 5 erotic flavours that unlock new dimensions of intimacy and pleasure.  

​

 No more one-dimensional lovemaking—this is about fully embodying the multidimensional, powerful woman you are. 

 Over these three days, you’ll: 

•   Awaken your body’s wisdom and learn to tune into the powerful messages it holds. 

•   Release shame, societal expectations, and the “good girl” programming that has kept you playing small. 

•   Reconnect with your wild, soulful self, a woman deeply connected to her joy and sensuality. 

•   Rediscover your sensuality, feeling alive, magnetic, and fully at home in your body. 

•   Expand your erotic power by exploring new ways of expressing desire and intimacy. 

•   Reignite the spark of intimacy, whether with your partner or within yourself. 

•   Learn 7 sacred practices to unlock the flow of erotic energy and experience deep, heart-opening pleasure. 

Step into your magnetic feminine presence, attracting love, connection, and passion into your life. 

 This isn’t about becoming someone else.  It’s about reclaiming YOU — the radiant, sensual, unapologetically powerful woman who’s been waiting to come alive again.

 Spaces are limited.  Your vibrant, magnetic self is waiting!

Radiant Being - a weekend retreat - Friday 10 October - Sunday 12 October

​

A weekend of mindfulness, movement, and meditation with Maya Nova & Wendy Douglas.

Have you been feeling stuck, fatigued, or quietly overwhelmed?
When was the last time you felt radiantly alive: healthy, whole, and fulfilled?

Sometimes, what we need most is not to push harder, but to pause.
To return to a more honest, loving relationship with ourselves and to meet where we are, with curiosity, compassion, and courage, and gently begin the journey back to our radiant, embodied self.

We’ll gently reconnect with ourselves through:

​

• Meditation and mindfulness in nature

• Gentle yoga, breath and somatic movement

• Resting your nervous system and replenishing your energy

• Self-awareness inquiry

• Move, breathe, and be — in rhythm with your body and nature

• ​

These are not tasks, but invitations: simple, soulful pathways into presence and ease.

These are not tasks, but invitations: simple, soulful pathways into presence and ease.

radiant being retreat is a safe and nourishing space to slow down, soften, and realign with your inner truth. to restore your energy. to remember your wholeness, and reclaim your radiance.
