WILD + SOFT
A reawakening of her feminine wildness.
SUNDAY 13 SEPTEMBER WILD+ SOFT
A one-day retreat created to reawaken your feminine wildness — the free, intuitive and deeply alive part of you that can become lost beneath the expectations, responsibilities and routines of everyday life.
Through feminine embodiment, time amongst the trees, equine healing, sound and ceremony, we’ll gently awaken the parts of you that have become quiet — inviting more expression, instinct, playfulness and freedom back into your body and your life.
There will be nourishing food shared together, time around the fire, and space to wander, rest and enjoy the outdoor sauna, plunge pool and open-air showers beneath the sky.
A day to take off the layers of who you need to be.
To remember the woman underneath.
Your journey begins with a private 1:1 shamanic smudging ceremony, symbolically washing away the energy of the city and everything you have carried with you, before stepping into the space clear and open.
We gather for our opening cacao ceremony, setting an intention for the day before moving into gentle feminine embodiment, intuitive movement and dance. Slowly, we begin to come out of the mind and into the body — awakening the dormant wild feminine energy that may have become quiet beneath routine, responsibility and expectation.
You’ll then meet our beautiful herd of horses before we journey into the woodland together. Through a guided nature walk, forest bathing and meditation amongst the trees, we reconnect with something more primal — feeling the earth beneath our feet, breathing with the landscape and remembering our own connection to Mother Earth, Gaia herself.
After a nourishing woodland lunch, we move into the heart of WILD + SOFT — our intimate equine healing experience.
Working alongside the intuitive presence of the horses, we explore the heart, trust, instinct and connection, allowing ourselves to be fully present in our bodies and open to whatever wants to emerge.
The afternoon also holds space for freedom and stillness. Move between the horse trailer sauna, plunge pool and open-air showers, wander, rest, connect with the other women or find a quiet corner of nature that feels like yours.
As the day begins to soften, Maria will guide you through a deeply restorative sound healing journey, allowing everything awakened throughout the day to settle into the body. We finish with Blue Lotus tea and a final sharing circle around the fire.
WILD + SOFT is intentionally intimate, with a maximum of eight women, held throughout the day by Maria, Levin and Frederika.
For one day, leave behind who you think you need to be.
GATHERINGSGATHERINGS & LEISURE
The day unfolds across a beautiful outdoor setting designed for gathering, resting and reconnecting with nature.
Our ceremonial tipi becomes the heart of the retreat — a warm, intimate space for circles, sound healing and shared moments together. Outside, the fire pit offers a place to gather, pause and connect, surrounded by open land and woodland.
Throughout the day, there is also time to simply enjoy the surroundings at your own pace. Wander through the woods, sit quietly by the fire, or move between the horse trailer sauna and plunge pool for a deeply refreshing contrast of heat and cold.
These slower moments are an important part of WILD + SOFT — giving you space to rest, connect and let the day integrate.

the herdHEALING WITH THE HORSES
There is something incredibly special about being in the presence of horses. Their sensitivity, intuition and connection to the earth invite us to communicate in a different way — beyond words, through presence, energy and the heart.
Before our healing ceremony begins, you’ll be introduced to the horses by Fredrika, who has worked with horses throughout her life. You’ll have time to meet them, learn about their unique personalities and begin to feel comfortable in their presence.
In the afternoon, we move into an intimate Equine Healing Ceremony, held in a small group of just four women.
Throughout the ceremony, Maria, Levin and four horses work alongside one another, each bringing their own presence and energy into the space. Maria and Levin work through the heart of Gaia, channelling Gaia Frequency Reiki onto the physical body and through the auric field, while the horses are free to move intuitively amongst the group.
A horse may choose to come close, lower its head towards you, breathe deeply beside you or simply stand quietly nearby. Others may remain at a distance. Nothing is forced or expected — we allow each horse to connect in the way that feels natural to them.
At the heart of this experience is an invitation to soften the protective layers around the heart, allowing the version of you that might have been held back, to re-awaken.
There is nothing you need to make happen. Simply soften into the space and allow yourself to receive — while we, and the horses, hold the journey alongside you.

from your hosts
We know that sometimes you can feel the need to step away, reset and reconnect with yourself — but disappearing for a week, or even a whole weekend, simply isn’t always possible.
WILD & SOFT was created as a mini reset. One beautiful day where you can leave the outside world behind, spend time in nature and allow someone else to take care of the details for a change.
At the heart of the day is our time with the horses. Horses have an incredible sensitivity and presence, inviting us out of our heads and into our bodies.
Through gentle connection with them, we’ll explore the energy of the heart — softening some of the protection we carry, opening to trust and allowing ourselves to feel and receive more deeply.
There is nothing you need to achieve here. Come exactly as you are. Walk amongst the trees, sit by the fire, share beautiful food, soften into sound, connect with the horses, laugh, rest and let yourself be held for the day.
It would be our honour to welcome you into this very special experience and share WILD & SOFT with you.
With love,
Maria & Levi
