A 5-day, 4-night retreat for women who are ready to do the deep healing necessary to break free from addictive patterns with food while learning to slow down, rest, and nourish body and soul.

 

Are you tired of Zoom calls?

Ready to be connected in person with your fellow sugar freedom sisters?

Me too ;)

The truth is, there's just no comparison to the magic and power of healing we can do IN PERSON. 

So now's the time to do just that and gather in the beauty of the coastal islands of British Colombia for a once in a lifetime retreat experience to support your journey in healing your relationship with food and your body!

Imagine this

  • You wake up every day feeling fully alive, connected to your body and trusting of your inner voice.
  • You love nourishing your body with whole real foods and notice that sugar no longer has a pull on you.
  • You fully embrace all of who you are in a loving and compassionate way.
  • You embrace the ups and downs of life with ease and actually enjoy the lessons and growth you get from hard times.
  • You no longer turn to food whenever tough emotions come up.
  • You feel a deep sense of ease and freedom when it comes to your body and your connection to food.

Can you feel it?

Even if it feels hard to hear it now, deep down there is a knowing. A calling. A truth.

That you have the power to heal your unhealthy patterns with food and relationships from the inside out.

And that’s exactly what we’re going to be doing together in community.

You'll be connected with an incredible group of women as you tap into deep healing modalities and learn how to re-pattern your body and mind to create sustainable healthy habits for life. You'll be discovering who you truly are and how you can really learn to trust and honour your body's wisdom again.  

Are you ready?

 

This retreat is for you if:

 

▪️ You want to create a more mindful and peaceful relationship with food, body, and yourself

▪️ You're tired of feeling alone on your healing journey and want to create real deep friendships with other women

▪️ You're tired of using food to escape difficult emotions and want to learn new tools to support your emotional health in a nourishing way

▪️ You're ready to release emotional baggage and trauma so you can feel alive and free in your body and mind

▪️ You're ready to uncover and heal the subconscious blocks that are keeping you stuck on the sugar binge rollercoaster year after year

If you resonate with ANY of these, you're in the right place my love!
