Give yourself the time and sacred space to feel what is alive in you.
Slow down and connect to the wisdom in your own womb, heart, rhythm and creative process.
Receive the gift of time spent in nature with others.

The world doesn’t need another cookie cutter woman/goddess who wears the right clothes, says the right things or has the most perfectly curated Instagram feed…but is still deeply disconnected from her own natural beauty and wisdom.

If we were to get really honest about what the world needs (if it were more aligned with the cycle of life) it wouldn’t really need you to be anything…it would just welcome and encourage you to BE YOU.

During our time together I’ll share with you pieces from my own feminine embodiment journey along with the tools and insights I’ve gleaned over more than a decade of studying and working with women.

BUT most importantly these retreats are about YOU taking time to FEEL and notice yourself while being seen and heard exactly as you are.

Ceremonial Cacao and Intentional Ceremony to connect Womb-Heart Wisdom

Gentle breath sound and sensual movement

Nourishing home cooked lunch with organic, free range or grass fed meats (vegetarian options)

Why a women’s retreat?

Something incredibly powerful happens when women gather together.
We co-create a space of safety to let go of the heaviness of busy lives, roles and masks, and to allow a circle of women to hear us, hold us and see us in all the parts that make us our powerful, messy, ecstatic and creative wholes.

Every circle I host I hear how much women are craving more space to be together, to rest together and embrace the realness of our lived experience. This is also what my heart deeply yearns for. So that’s what our retreats are all about.

In the busyness of modern living too often we get caught in worrying, trying, pushing and demanding, meeting everyone else’s needs but our own. Women’s circles and retreats are an opportunity to instead nourish, nurture and receive while connecting with other heart centred women.

Creating an intimate sanctuary for you to come as you are be with other women we turn inwards to reconnect with the wisdom of our hearts and bodies to allow a true sense of coming home to ourselves. Spaces are limited to 10 women and bookings are required. Contact lani@heartofrest.com.au for more information.

“The beauty of being in the women’s circle is that you see mirrors everywhere. Goddess is expressing herself through this form and that form, each one unique. As you look into the mirror of sisterhood, you begin to see how magnificently unboxable She is.” ~ CHAMELI ARDAGH

Our women’s circles are an invitation to pause, rest, connect, share and explore how and when you feel most at home in your body? And a space where you can build your own inner sense of safety and trust through noticing, feeling, moving and using your voice.

Topics shared will vary from season to season and collective consciousness. These might include feminine archetypes, emotional balance, sacred union, self pleasure, breast massage, asking for what you want, healthy boundaries, consent and touch.

We were never designed to do this thing alone, our nervous systems are craving nourishment and reconnection. Give yourself this time to gather with women as we together remember the great gifts of our wise feminine bodies and hearts.

Feeling. Depth. Connection. Home.

Our ceremony space

Our circles are hosted on private property in Treeby, just 30 minutes from the city but you’ll feel like you’ve escaped down south to be with the trees. On five beautiful acres of natural bush we welcome those seeking deep rest, personal growth and healing, and those who wish to deepen their relationship with like minded folk and Mother Earth. The property was first settled in the mid 60’s and has since been home to several colourful spiritually minded communities. This magical property is simple, rustic and intended to support you in reconnecting with the beauty of mother nature.

Frequently Asked Questions

I’m no longer bleeding is it OK for me to attend? If you have or have had a menstrual cycle you are welcome to attend. While we will talk about the monthly phases of the menstrual cycle we also talk about the lifecycle of a woman from pre-bleed to menopause.

Will we be studying the different phases of the menstrual cycle? Our retreats will include an introduction to the seasons and phases and different themes will be shared each season. If you’re specifically looking for in-depth learning about the phases of your cycle consider booking for the Red Tent Workshop – Inner Seasons instead.

Will we be practicing yoga? Yes, predominantly Yin and Hatha yoga combined with other gentle somatic movement practices. Yoga means union and I’ll almost always incorporate gentle movements and yin yoga to help digest and integrate other aspects of the circle. You’ll be guided every step of the way and can always choose what to participate in.

I’m gender fluid am I still welcome to attend? If you have or have had a menstrual cycle and your intention is to explore and celebrate the underlying wisdom of the menstrual cycle and the qualities of the feminine essence you’re very welcome to attend. The words women, womb, feminine, yin will all be used throughout the circle, it’s my intention that everyone feel welcome in these circles however please note if gender specific language is tender for you please reach out to me so we can have a chat about what you might need and if this is a good fit for you.
