Rise & Shine
Three unhurried days to soften, restore, and remember yourself, held at a garden cottage in Vesuvius Bay, a short stroll from the beach.
A small, intimate gathering of no more than six — so everything can be tailored to the people in the room.

Setting
Three nights at Bayview Cottage, arriving Friday 4pm and leaving Monday morning
Two nourishing meals daily, with afternoon tea on Sunday
Snacks, fruit, herbal teas, and coffee throughout

A private one-hour session with me
Every retreat is personalised — share what you're hoping for and I'll shape the days around you.
Three queen bedrooms — ideal for friends, sisters, or mothers and daughters sharing. A single surcharge may apply if not sharing a room, and pricing can be tailored to your group's numbers, activities, and treatments.
Beauty Therapy
Organic facials with facial massage and lymphatic drainage, plus skincare lessons you carry home — the craft I trained in for over twenty-five years.
Yoga & Sound Healing
Gentle morning movement closed with the deep resonance of sound bowls — a reset for the nervous system.
Reiki & Energy Work
Therapeutic touch and Reiki with a certified master, easing what words can't reach.
Botanical & Floristry
Talks on herbs and their medicinal gifts, and flower arranging for pure pleasure — with a bouquet to take home.
Transformational Work
Emotional Freedom Technique and gentle coaching to release the patterns that no longer serve you.
Nourishment
Meals cooked with local and home-grown ingredients, for every dietary need — food as care, not just fuel.
Morning
An optional walk, stretch, or breathwork to greet the day, then a communal breakfast cooked with local and home-grown ingredients.
Midday
Out into Salt Spring — the famous Ganges artisanal market, a vineyard visit, or kayaking on Vesuvius Bay — while your one-on-one sessions with me unfold back at the cottage.
Afternoon
Workshops in holistic skincare, energy work, or botanicals and floristry — closed with afternoon tea and shared poetry in the garden.
Evening
A nourishing shared dinner, a beach sunset, and quiet intention setting to carry home.
I have spent over twenty-five years in organic beauty therapy, Reiki, and transformational work. My retreats are the gathering of all of it — skin, body, and spirit, in one place.
You'll have my full attention, including a private hour that's entirely yours.
Just six guests will share these three nights. Get in touch to hold your spot for September 2026.
