ONLINE RETREAT
ONLINE 5-DAY LIVE RETREAT
May 5th - 9th, 2022
Medicine for the Modern Mother is for women in the first years of motherhood, nursing and abundantly nourishing their children in their earliest years.
We cant deny that the desire to give will never end, yet we find ourselves at moments reaching for the pause or time out button because we have no reserves to pull from anymore.
This is your 5 day reserve tank top up.
For you to be the best version of yourself, firstly as an independent, loving, caring and confident embodied woman - and secondly, as the adoring mother that you are.
This retreat is for you if you are:
- Craving an understanding sisterhood. - Tools to release the baby brain and tap into the intuitive, innate wild woman within
- Reset your system with dance, rest, yoga, meditation, nourishing foods, embodied practices, guided journalling moon and menstrual wisdom.
This retreat is ancient wisdom medicine for the modern, overworked, overtired, overstimulated modern mother.

DAILY SCHEDULE
Everyday we will run with the same structure, yet following a new theme. I know for us mothers structure is key, and the way we all thrive. So, we have intelligently put our schedule together in a way that you can mostly navigate your own exact times, depending what morning, midday and evening looks like for you and your family.
For Example:
Morning: Pre recorded meditation & Pre recorded Asana
Mid-morning OR mid-Afternoon (depends on your routine & flexibility) : Pre Recorded open discussion
Afternoon: LIVE SESSION, a mix between embodied ecstatic dance, ancient wisdom practices & knowledge, vocal activation, muscle testing, intuitive tapping, postpartum care, relationship support, PPD & PPA support, and so much more.
Evening: Pre recorded yoga Nidra.
