Nourished Woman Retreat

21-24 March 2024

Are you ready to embrace your femininity and connect with your body on a deeper level?

Nourish. Connect. Liberate

Our aim is to empower women to embrace abundance by letting go of restrictive habits, gaining knowledge through wise wisdom, and equipping themselves with practical tools to live a life in harmony with nature. We provide natural solutions that help prevent dis-ease, and nourish the body, mind and soul, so that women can live a juicy, vibrant passion filled life .

are you feeling…

E

like you're constantly pouring from an empty cup and have lost sight of your own self-care


It’s
a common experience for many women to feel like they’re constantly pouring from an empty cup. Amidst the endless demands of daily life, self-care and self-worth often takes a backseat.
We have wonderful workshops planned to provide simple techniques that will beat the feeling of overwhelm, giving you a toolset that will allow you to embrace  & integrate self-care within our busy daily lives.
 

 

In a society that values external validation over internal guidance, it can be challenging to trust your own intuition and inner voice.
At NOURISHED woman retreat we will assist you in coming back to your body and your womb intelligence. Soften into your innate wisdom, leading you to your true path home.

Not living in alignment with your true self can manifest in different ways, such as feeling unfulfilled in your career, relationships, or personal life, or feeling like you’re constantly searching for something that seems out of reach.
Connecting with your fellow sisters in circle, challenging yourself to learn more and simply being free together in nature may be just what you need to reset and find your way forward.

You may be experiencing frustration and disappointment with the endless cycle of trying different diets without seeing positive results.
We aim to end the ‘scarcity’ cycle and rather focus on abundance. Learning to love yourself is an ongoing journey and we have found that focusing on simple ancestral health practices and living in tune with your natural cycle brings true health and a sense of peace within.

About Carly

Hi, I’m Carly, a women’s health advocate on a mission to promote feminine awakening and wellness. From an early age, I experienced the pressure to conform and prioritize societal acceptance over self-expression. I struggled to make authentic connections and sought validation from others, leading to years of yo-yo dieting and over-exercising. Eventually, I realized that I needed to prioritize my health, and I began diving deep into holistic herbalism and nourishing myself with natural healing methods. With a focus on whole foods, plant medicine and menstrual cycle awareness, I began healing and  found peace in my femininity. Now, I guide women on a journey of self-discovery, healing, and empowerment through herbal wisdom and sisterhood. Join me on the path to becoming your vibrant, authentic self.

I joined Carly on her Green Witch retreat in 2021 & absolutely loved every minute of it. We learnt so much about plants ~ it’s healing medicine both in body & spirit. We were spoilt with incredible, nourishing food and spent our days crafting, making a self-love potion (super powerful), cooking, creating and talking with like minded women. Will never forget this time. A must!

Almarie Stander

Your bushcraft retreat has impacted me on so many levels. I feel like I connected not only with my inner woman but also my inner child. I feel like a different person…Everything about the experiencee was magical. The food was excellent, the skills we learned were great and the food was amazing. I can’t wait until the next retreat!!
