Retreats to energise and reset
At Journeying Women our mission is to
resource and enable women to bring more joy and contentment into their lives, also known as Wellbeing.
Humans need to recharge and reset their mind, body and soul regularly to adapt to ever changing circumstances so that life can be enjoyed rather than endured. The Journeying Women are on a mission to enable that.
“The Journeying Women” invite you to discover the secrets and science of better wellbeing and true self-care,
that is caring and nurturing your inner being.
You can expect a restorative and energising program in a safe, welcoming, inclusive and beautiful space.
Retreat, Grow & Flourish
We often hear women say “I just need a day or even a few hours just for me”.
We get it. Life is busy serving others, often leaving little time for ourselves.
Our retreats and workshops are designed to take time out, slow down and:
Value what’s working in life
Re-assess priorities
Reconnect with what matters
Rediscover what truly matters to you; reassemble the parts that may have been put to the side temporarily
Rejuvenate by slowing down briefly
An investment in your wellbeing is an investment in your life.
The World Health Organisation refers to mental health as ‘a state of well-being in which every individual realises their own potential, can cope with the normal stresses of life, can work productively and fruitfully, and is able to make a contribution to her or his community’
Let us empower you.
Women often juggle many different roles in their life, often prioritising the needs of others which frequently leads to women neglecting their own needs and wellbeing. As women journeying through life, we inevitably face multiple challenging life experiences which place demands on our coping capacity.
When women are resourced and have knowledge on how to self-care and self-nurture their own emotional and psychological domains, it enables us to better support others. When women take care of their own inner needs, the ripple effects will spread to their families, colleagues and wider communities who will all benefit from the work.
Thrive with others.
History has shown that women benefit from being part of a community that supports each other in order to thrive, knowing that others have the same experience and that they are not alone. Our retreats and workshops are held in a nurturing, safe, inclusive and non-judgemental environment where women are invited to ‘come as they are’.
Our workshops are suited to all women - no prior experience necessary - mothers, entrepreneurs, CEO's, tradeswomen, uni students. We provide a welcoming, nurturing and safe environment where everyone is welcome
Women’s Wellbeing Retreats and Workshops are offered in various locations
(70 minutes south of Sydney), Eastern Suburbs Sydney and other locations.
We can also come to you. Just ask us.
