a womans' love... R e t r e a t

5 - 7 September, 2025

Located 1.5hr drive from Newcastle
3hrs from Sydney

ARE YOU FEELING DISCONNECTED?

From the world, from life and others and most importantly from YOU?

This Retreat is for YOU - to feel into the beautiful world around you, to become in tune with YOURSELF. To drop all the noise, so you can truly FEEL and maybe, just maybe - magic!

For 3 days, 2 nights we will share space at the beautiful Wangat Lodge, 20km north of Dungog, NSW.

On the surface this could look like any other yoga retreat: 2 nights and 3 days for you to escape and relax.

My intention however, is for it to be so much MORE… We are going to delve into lifestyle and inner practices that can quite literally TRANSFORM the person reading these words. The practices I am going to share with you are the ones that I used (and still use) to transform my life, from one of deep sadness and depression to one where I am NOW FREE.

Free from the inner turmoil that this modern world often inflicts upon us. You will, over these three days, not just ‘learn’ but embody these practices. To start this journey of healing it’s imperative to learn ‘how’ to turn down the stress response in your body and mind. You will learn ‘how’ and put the knowledge into practice - so not only start the process in this container but also be capable of continuing the processes when you leave, empowering you in your everyday life.

About Wangat:

Set amongst the trees of our beautiful rainforest, a stay at Wangat Lodge will give you time and space to properly connect and create memories away from the hustle and bustle of busy life.

At Wangat you can explore the forest and the wild banks of the spectacular Chichester River or head further afield on a guided walk to discover Jerusalem Creek and it's wonderful waterfalls and pools or to the great strangling fig tree! Cool off in the Summer heat in one of our beautiful, big swimming holes or keep cosy beside the fire.

Search for the native wildlife; from the cheeky possums, abundant birdlife and noisy frogs to the shy wallabies, stealthy goannas and elusive platypus.

What Our Retreat Guests are Saying

“Tara, Thank you isn't big enough a word to express how your retreat has revolutionised my zest for life! Your ability to share your own experience feels limitless and your strong support is so beautiful. I feel like I have more tools, I'm excited and ready for all the things coming, whatever it is”

~ Joolz xx

“I am still feeling so grateful I could be part of this life changing experience. It is still hard to write about what happened there with my soul and my mind because it was such a profound experience. I overcame some of my limitations - some have changed to my new daily habits.

I have created such beautiful memories, let go of thoughts which didn't serve me, sat with myself in silence and inhaled a bit of wisdom. :)”

~ Lucie M
