When a Retreat Becomes Something More…

I’ve just returned from hosting my annual Goddess Retreat in the peaceful hills of Spain’s Penedès region near Barcelona — and it’s hard to put into words what actually happens on these retreats.

Yes, there’s yoga, nourishing food, sunshine, and rest. But the real magic? It’s what unfolds quietly between the women who come together — the conversations, the laughter, the breakthroughs, and the moments of stillness that shift something deep inside.

A Retreat That Felt Like Coming Home

This year felt extra special because all seven women had been on retreat with me before.

The moment they arrived, it was as if we’d just picked up where we left off. There was an ease, a flow — like spending a long weekend with friends. No pressure to be anything other than yourself.

What struck me most was how everyone supported one another — offering advice, listening, laughing, holding space when things felt tender. It reminded me that when women come together in a nurturing, non-judgmental space, powerful things happen.

Where Movement Meets Stillness

Our yoga sessions took place in a bright, airy studio filled with natural light — a calm sanctuary.

The practice was never about perfection; it was about presence. Each morning we moved gently, honouring our energy and reconnecting with our breath. In the evenings, we journaled, which offered time to reflect, accompanied by restorative sessions to invite deep rest and release, — the kind of stillness that nourishes your whole system.

“I knew I would be in good hands with Rebecca, having already attended a previous retreat — but this one was even better than I hoped!
I really enjoy Rebecca's teaching style and hands-on guidance. At the same time, she is such a warm and caring person; she just makes me feel safe and well accompanied (including through some of the more daring yoga poses!).
The retreat location was sublime, very peacefully nestled in the Penedès vineyards, and the private chef almost made me want to go full vegetarian, his food creations were so good… Great retreat experience!”

Moments That Stay With You

Between classes, we shared long, laughter-filled meals prepared by our wonderful private chef (his giant paella feast was a highlight for everyone!). We walked through the vineyards to a hidden waterfall, journaled by the pool, and took time for Reiki, rest, and reflection.

This year I also offered complimentary 1:1 Reiki and oracle/tarot sessions — something new — and they were received beautifully. Each woman’s session brought clarity, calm, and a few big realisations that rippled through the group in the most positive way.

“Amazing transformational experience under Rebecca’s experienced yoga teachings.
I feel recharged and clear-headed, ready for the next chapter in my life.
Thank you for your guidance.”
— Sarah, 2025 Retreat Guest

It’s these simple, unhurried moments — the ones you can’t plan — that often stay with us the longest.

Looking Ahead

As I look back, I’m filled with deep gratitude — for the women who continue to show up year after year, and for the space we’ve created together.

These retreats are personal, intimate, and deeply restorative — a chance to pause, breathe, and reflect in a way that everyday life rarely allows.

If reading this makes you think, “Next year, I want to be there,” now’s the time to pencil it in.
