Secret Tuscan Retreat

Summer 2025 Dates coming soon!

Join us in this secluded venue in the undiscovered northern province of Tuscany for 5 days to:

Celebrate life, embrace the warm Tuscan sun, feel fulfillment, joy, and enhance your overall well-being.

Imagine waking up in a stunning converted 13C Monastery in the mountains of an undiscovered Tuscany? For five days, your only task is to embrace self-care and joy. This is your moment to invest in yourself like never before. You’ll return home feeling lighter and clearer after days filled with somatic healing, discovering nature’s therapeutic power, and connecting with kindred spirits.

We want you to embrace transformation as you release the past and welcome new possibilities. Each day engaging in activities for your mind, body, and soul. Nourishing yourself with nutritious meals, learning simple habits you can take away and include in your everyday life even after the retreat has ended.

After a day of porcini foraging, hiking through the 50 acres of chestnut forests, learning to make pasta, dipping in the nearby river, exploring the tiny local village, or simply curling up with a book, you'll end it by slipping into your cozy, comfy bed, where your body will rejuvenate after a glorious night’s sleep.

You so deserve this…..

Many of us spend our lives WAITING – waiting for the perfect moment, waiting for the right circumstances, waiting until we think we've earned the right to take care of ourselves. But if we wait, our coffee will get cold; our life will pass us by and we’ll come to our end regretting not doing something when we had the chance! The best time to prioritize our well-being is NOW.

The moment my life truly began was when I decided to stop waiting and to start living.

Managers, mums, high achievers! We all put our needs at the bottom of the pile, thinking that if we keep pushing, everything will eventually fall into place. But the truth is, if you’re burnt out, those around you will suffer too.

Self-care and finding joy are not luxuries, they are essentials that enhance your performance and well-being.

So it’s time to say YES to yourself because you deserve it!

This retreat is about giving yourself the gift of true healing, inner peace, and joy. This retreat is the thing you’ve been waiting for.
