Our bespoke wellness women's retreats serve as a potent catalyst, empowering you to break free of outdated thought patterns, release unhealthy habits, and embrace new, healthy ways of emotionally connecting with yourself,  paving the path for increased awe and joy.

Mindfulness Supports:

  • Profound Self-Reflection: Women frequently undergo deep self-reflection and introspection, leading to significant insights about their outdated patterns of thought and beliefs.
  • Emotional Liberation: Mindfulness has the power to surface buried emotions, providing an opportunity to confront and release past traumas or unresolved issues, and fostering emotional healing and personal growth that enriches your ability to connect with others.
  • Enhanced Communication: The profound self-awareness derived from mindful meditation experiences often leads to improved communication skills. Women become more in tune with their emotional needs, facilitating open and honest expression.
  • Amplified Empathy and Compassion: Your enhanced frequency amplifies feelings of empathy and compassion, nurturing a greater sense of understanding and kindness.

Reviews

There aren’t enough words to express my gratitude to Heather Lee and Monica Ramunda for their expertise and thoughtfulness exercised in every aspect of this retreat. Having a psilocybin journey designed, curated, and guided by these two pioneers of psychodelic Assisted Therapy was invaluable for me to heal years of trauma and grief. The beautiful property, the food, the group sessions- every detail created an environment of trust and support. It was worth every penny and more! After deep research into the benefits of this natural and ancient healing medicine it was important to me to find western therapists who understand the power and wisdom of using mushroom based psilocybin to help suffering people make immediate and lasting progress. Heather and Monica stood out in this field of practice. Their dedication to a retreat environment adds an indescribable dimension of support and pampering beyond all expectations. Since the retreat I have had zero desire for any substances; prescribed or otherwise. I urge anyone considering a retreat with Heather and Monica to just do it!

The event exceeded my expectations. The entire agenda was well organized and thoughtful planned. There were many extras I wasn’t expecting and the people that provided the services were professionals in their fields. Heather and Monica clearly know how to make people feel safe and comfortable in this space. I highly recommend them without hesitation.
