Wise Women Retreats

Welcome to Wise Women Retreats, a sacred gathering for women ready to remember who they truly are.

Wise Women Retreats are immersive journeys of inner transformation. Each retreat is an invitation to pause, soften, and remember who you are beneath the noise — a pilgrimage home to your deepest wisdom.

Through intentional ritual, ceremony, movement, and silence, you are guided to reconnect with the wild, tender truth that lives within. These are not casual getaways, but sacred containers for deep soul work, designed for women ready to meet themselves fully.

Due to the intimate and transformative nature of these retreats, attendance is by application only. This ensures that each gathering holds the right energetic alignment and allows every woman to feel safely held and deeply witnessed.

Testimonials

  • This retreat changed my life. Helen’s guidance was soulful, grounding, and exactly what needed at this stage of my journey.

    ~ Sarah J., Melbourne

  • I’ve just returned from a truly life-changing retreat with Helen, and I can honestly say I will never be the same. From the moment I arrived, I felt held, seen, and supported in a way I didn’t even know I needed. The space Helen creates is sacred—bot

    I’ve just returned from a truly life-changing retreat with Helen, and I can honestly say I will never be the same. From the moment I arrived, I felt held, seen, and supported in a way I didn’t even know I needed. The space Helen creates is sacred—both grounding and expansive—and allowed me to safely explore layers of myself I had buried or forgotten. Through powerful healing practices, deep connection with others, and intentional time in nature, I released old patterns, reconnected with my intuition, and reclaimed parts of myself I had lost along the way. Helen’s wisdom, compassion, and gentle guidance helped me navigate this transformation with grace and courage. If you are feeling called to deepen your connection to yourself, heal, and realign with your purpose, I cannot recommend Helen’s retreat enough. It is more than a retreat—it is a remembering, a reawakening, and a return home to yourself.

  • I would say to those considering joining a retreat with you to GO FOR IT! They will not regret it for a second. There were so many wonderful, well thought out activities and new experiences to be had. Some of the highlights for me were the cacao chanting circle, the breathwork journey, silent disco dancing barefoot in the beautiful grounds of the Continental House, the wonderful Inner Compass workshop by the lovely Angela from Akaora Therapies and the amazing Turkish Hamman steam bathing that I got to experience with some special ladies. There is nothing more important for a woman to feed her soul and recharge her batteries so that she can show up for herself and for those she loves!

  • From the welcome to the goodbye - this retreat is like one long hug. Whether you are just starting out and trying something new, or are an experienced 'retreater', Helen creates a welcoming, warm, safe and inclusive bubble, and the whole group comes together to support each other. Every little detail is carefully planned and designed to nurture - from the beautiful accommodation and natural surrounds, to the unbelievable food, the choice and sequencing of the days activities, the free time to spend as you want, and the optional treatments. As a 'first-timer' I was a little apprehensive, but all I can say is just jump in, you won't regret it (and absolutely opt-in for the Hammam!!).

    - Sarah J, Melbourne

  • Helen’s Wise Woman retreat was the best retreat experience I’ve have ever had and I’ve done a few around the world. It’s such a deep work and you need to be called to join. The pace and program were studied in a very meticulous yet intuitive way to help everyone meet themselves where there are at. Helen is an amazing facilitator: raw, honest, direct and grounded which is so important in the work she does. She creates a very safe space where the group can share openly and be held with no judgement. I would do this retreat over and over again to get deeper and deeper inwards in a safe and inspiring environment.

  • If you're thinking about joining one of Helen's retreats- DO IT!! Wherever you are on the journey, be prepared to go deep, be held and rediscover parts of yourself you've forgotten or hidden. You'll release emotional pain, reconnect with your truth, and step into light and joy. Helen creates a safe, authentic space for deep healing. She leads with power, passion and wisdom through experiential healing practices and a range of transformative modalities, she holds space for whatever arises- laughter, tears and transformation! It's not always easy, but it is always real. And it's absolutely worth it!!
