About this retreat
Why this retreat exists
Nestled in the serene landscape of Rishikesh, where the Himalayas meet the flowing Ganga, this retreat is designed around the Earth element (Prithvi tattva), the foundation of stability, nourishment, and deep inner grounding.
Rishikesh, known as the gateway to spiritual awakening, holds a powerful energetic field that supports transformation, healing, and inner evolution.
The Earth element governs structure, stability, and support, both in the body and in life. When it is imbalanced, we may feel anxious, scattered, or disconnected. Often that heaviness settles in the womb space: the centre of creation, intuition and feminine energy, where we quietly hold old emotions, unspoken pain, and the stories of those who came before us.
Through womb healing and carefully curated grounding practices, this retreat helps you reconnect with that sacred centre, release what it has been holding, and settle back into your body and your life. This retreat is not just an escape, but a conscious journey back to your roots.
Come scattered, leave rooted.
Deeper healing
Return to the womb, your sacred centre
Each day, a deep womb healing session gently explores what the womb space holds, in the middle of the day between grounding mornings and soothing evenings.
Relationships & Intimacy
Old hurts and patterns in love and closeness, and coming back to safety, trust and self-respect.
The Mother Line
What we inherited from our mothers and grandmothers, and choosing what to carry forward.
Feminine Energy & Creativity
Reawakening intuition, softness, pleasure and creative power, and feeling at home in your own body.

A retreat that grounds
Deep in the middle, gentle at the edges
Mornings begin with movement and meditation. The heart of each day is held for deep healing. Afternoons and evenings bring you back to the earth through clay, nature, Ayurveda and sound, so whatever surfaces is gently absorbed.
The mountains don’t rush, yet everything evolves within them. Come on your own and give yourself six days to slow down, receive, and transform.

Held with care
A small group, and attention for every person
Womb healing needs a safe, gentle container. The group is kept small, so every participant receives individual attention during sessions and personal check-ins through the week. Grounding mornings and soothing evenings make sure whatever opens up is gently integrated, so you leave steady, not unsettled.
