An invitation to move with the earth —
a slow, embodied rewilding retreat beneath the Italian sun
October 25 – 31 2026 in Sabina, Italy
This retreat was born from the intention to pause, to breathe, to soften, and to see beauty in the present moment.
It’s not about chasing another version of healing or striving to become more. It’s about celebrating who you already are, all the work you’ve already done, through all of your phases, cycles, imperfections, and quiet evolutions.
Guided by nature as our muse, we move in rhythm with the earth and remember what it feels like to be alive in our own bodies.
Among the wildflowers and rolling hills of Italy, we return to what makes us feel whole: joy, play, and the radiant current of divine feminine energy — slowing down, practicing presence, and letting nature be the place we reconnect with ourselves.
Through movement, breath, flower essence therapy and creative expression, we’ll find inspiration in the rhythm of the natural world, and remember that the earth teaches us how to bloom again and again, season after season. All we need to do is slow down and listen.
We’ll gather for yoga & kundalini inspired breathwork, create & adorn with flowers, share nourishing meals under the Italian sun, frolic & forage under the olive grove like little flower goblins, roll pasta, sip wine in the golden hour, share laughter that hits like ab-work, and find joy in slowing down together.
If your heart’s been craving space for softness, connection, and play — this is your invitation.
