ABOUT:
As the year winds down, your body is likely telling you what your calendar won’t:
You’re running on empty.
And rest alone hasn’t been enough.
When you’ve spent all year holding it together, it takes more than a night off to feel like yourself again. It takes space. Stillness. Intention.
That’s what The Renewal Retreat is for.
This mini retreat was created for high-functioning, heart-led women who are tired of performing strength and ready to soften and receive before the season turns.
What to expect...
- Insights and understanding of different situations in your life
- Healing of the mind and body
- A deep sense of peace and bliss
- New creative ideas
- Deep connection towards oneself
- Ideas of life direction and next steps
- Release of emotions that might be limiting you and keeping you stuck
- Calming of the nervous system
- Greater awareness of patters of the mind
- Boosting of your mood
- Boosting of self-estemme, confidence and feelings of empowerment
WHAT TO EXPECT
During our time together, you’ll be guided through:
- Nervous system reset — Gentle guided breathing, meditation and grounding practices
-
Intuitive reflection — Spiritual teachings, journaling + coaching prompts to help you release what’s no longer needed
Group channelling for guidance and clarity + intention setting for the season ahead
-
Integration — guided meditation in candlelight, soft music, and space to land
You’ll leave feeling lighter, clearer, and more connected to yourself—without needing to explain, fix, or perform.
How do I know if a women's circle is for me?
You’re the one who holds it all together
You’re the one who everyone leans on. But you’re tired, overwhelmed, and craving space to be held for a change.
You’ve tried to “rest,”
But even after the weekend of rest or the day at the spa, the tension in your body, the spiralling thoughts, or the emotional heaviness haven’t really shifted.
You want to feel like yourself again
You know that the ‘you’ that you are performing isn’t really you. You want to feel grounded, clear, connected—but don’t know how to get there on your own.

Frequently Asked Questions
We’ve got most of it covered—you don’t need much.
Here’s what we recommend bringing:
A journal and pen for reflections and prompts
A refillable water bottle to stay hydrated
A yoga mat or something comfortable to sit/lie on
A blanket or cozy layer (think: socks, sweater, scarf—whatever helps you feel grounded)
An open heart and willingness to receive (the most important part)
Absolutely! YES YES YES! Going to a retreat alone can be extremely powerful and transformative. Common feedback we also receive is the welcoming, safe and connected vibe we create and the relationships you create on retreats sometimes turn in to lifelong friends.
Another big YES! We welcome women of all levels and complete beginners too! Retreats are a great place to learn or to solidify established practices and routines.
Yes, a retreat information email with all this information will be sent out closer to the retreat date.
About your Guide
Laurie Oakes
Her journey to find answers about spirituality and life outside of the physical body began at a young age. She found herself questioning her soul’s purpose, following her intuition, and receiving messages and “inner knowings” as young as she can remember.
Today, she shares her wisdom through various platforms, including workshops, retreats, and online courses. Her teachings empower individuals to awaken their spiritual potential, find inner peace, and live authentically.
Laurie gently guides her clients into letting go of the trauma and that which no longer serves them and empowers them with channelled guidance on their journey of personal growth and spiritual exploration.
She believes in the inherent divinity within each person and strives to help others discover their own inner truth and connection to their Creator.
