An invitation

The best of friendship, slow living and women's wellbeing.

Three nights at Wybalena Organic Farm. A small circle of women aged 30 to 45. The kind of few days you keep referring back to.

The Slow Life Retreat is a collaboration between Conscious Connection and Elementa, bringing together community, friendship, creativity and women's wellbeing across a generous few days.

Come for the fantasy of land, shared meals, morning walks and a circle of girlfriends. Leave with new connections, a rested body and a deeper sense of what a full, slow life could feel like.

The retreat journey

A glimpse into the slow life.

Community, ritual, creativity, nature and nourishment shape a few days into something generous, grounded and deeply connective.

Why this retreat · for you if you

What happens when community meets care.

A slower, fuller few days for women aged 30 to 45 who want honest friendship, real wellbeing and a softer rhythm — without losing the fun.

  • 01

    Friendship, the grown-up kind

    Honest, playful, unhurried days with women who want depth without the heaviness — the kind of community you've joked about building.

  • 02

    Slow living, actually lived

    Cooking class, farm tour, trail walks and shared meals — you live the slow life together for a few days, not just visit it.

  • 03

    Care for your nervous system

    Qi gong, sauna, ice bath, embodied practice and rest that softens the system without ever feeling too serious.

  • 04

    Creativity that returns you to yourself

    Clay, watercolour, tarot, journalling and fire ceremony — beauty, expression and a way back to what matters.
