Details of this retreat

Celebrate Aging Beauty,

Celebrate women's Beauty, Radiance and Grace

The purpose of this weekend is not to perfect yourself, but to transform yourself – into what you already are!

Engage physically, emotionally, cognitively, interpersonally, and spiritually to develop a “healing presence;” to have greater awareness of and in your own body, emotions, mind and spirit, and to engage a multitude of individual practices that can be employed throughout your life.

A woman’s journey is unique. An aging woman's journey is precious and nothing so far has prepared us for how to navigate it. Until now. . .learn to navigate it with grace in this women-only comprehensive approach to growth and development that supports whole-hearted acceptance.

What is your greatest desire for how to live this one and only precious life as a woman - fully?

Bring your passion to live life to the fullest, and open your heart to manifesting that fullness in relationship with yourself and the world.

Courageously walk open-heartedly into the unknown and join others in a community of like-hearted individuals.

As women, we have been longing for sanctuary and soul nourishment.

The need for soul to soul connection between women is about to be fulfilled in a heartwarming, connected, supportive way that strengthens each of us collectively, and individually.

Imagine the gifts we can be to each other when we bring our truths together to connect and support! A life we have all be searching for. Woman supporting women – It’s time; time to share strength, rawness, vulnerability, wisdom – time to support, teach and nurture each other- to heal, rejuvenate and celebrate the essence of the feminine together. Time to share collective wisdom of a circle of women.

More than I expected
My experience with Jacqui was more than I expected. I came here feeling disconnected, guilty, angry, and placing blame on myself and others around me. Years of buildup had taken a toll on my mind, body, and soul. What I got was a profound shift in energy and feelings about who I am and the possibilities that will come. I never thought it would be possible for me to go as deep as I did. I was always afraid of what was underneath and lived a life of avoidance. Now, there’s a sense of personal pride for the work I have put into myself. I could not have accomplished that alone. Jacqui and her staff held me through the entire process. It was a truly authentic, heartfelt, and collective effort. Not to mention with the most beautiful scenery, sounds, food and energy around me at all times. I am optimistic about the shifts and lessons that will continue to unfold. I am full of gratitude. M.M.

Being new to this kind of experience, I was a little apprehensive- I immediately felt at ease when Jacqui greeted me the day I arrived. She is a grounded, loving, caring woman that is doing exactly what she is here to do. The word ‘Integrity’ is what comes to me with my interaction and experience with her and the retreat. I felt completely safe and held for this very vulnerable experience – it allowed me to let go into the places that I needed, to accomplish the deep work that we did together and in my journey. I feel blessed to have met her and that she is in my life!

Overall, I can only say… wonderful and such a beautiful, nurturing setting. I have nothing to compare it to, but have a feeling this is in the top of this kind of experience! Thank you!

10 out of 10
I rate this place a 10 out of 10 - I got everything I needed and more, so much more. The retreat experience was perfect plus I got all the additional benefits as I intended when choosing to come to this type of work.

I Feel more motivated now, appreciate my life and my connections in my life more, I feel calmer, like I am not a hurry to go anywhere. Used to be in a hurry to finish things quickly now I am wanting to do things slowly now. I also feel more confident. I told some secrets now that I didn’t tell to my girlfriend before. I am accepting myself now. I accepted some part of myself that I didn’t before. Slept better as well. Z-

Surprisingly the best thing I have ever done for myself
I had no idea I would get so much out of this course. I thought it was a simple how to for microdosing. It is that and so so much more. This course helped me see myself in a way that helped me see how and why I do what and do and the best part of the course was it also taught me what to do with this new information. I feel like I know who I really am because of this course. Oh and I am no longer taking anxiety medicine either. Run to sign up for this course. You will not regret it!
