A WOMEN’S RETREAT IN SCOTLAND
In your body. In the landscape.
In connection.
Loch Lomond & The Trossachs, Scotland
July 13-18, 2027
COME AS YOU ARE
A women’s retreat in Scotland for movement, connection, exploration and space to pause... at your own pace.
Step away from the demands of everyday life. Reconnect with yourself and experience Scotland in the company of supportive, like-minded women.
Through movement, nature, connection and stillness, Wild & Rooted brings two energies together: the fluidity of the loch and the steadiness of the mountain.
There is no version of yourself you need to become here. Just space to be yourself, connect with others and choose what feels right for you.
You'll have opportunities to practice yoga, hike through the Scottish landscape, swim in the loch, explore castles, villages, and experience Scottish culture, learn about your patterns, create, reflect and spend time with other women. Some experiences will invite you outward. Others will invite you to pause and notice what's happening within.

A supportive place to move, breathe, and soften.
NOTHING TO PROVE
You don’t have to hike the highest mountain, swim in the coldest loch, or constantly push beyond your comfort zone.
It might mean trying something new. Or it might mean taking a nap. Hiking through the Scottish countryside. Or sitting beside the loch with a cup of tea.
Your body gets a vote.
Explore the experienceWHAT YOU’LL EXPERIENCE
Rest matters.
So does laughter, movement, connection, and moments of delight.
Gentle yoga, meditation, nervous-system education and grounding practices. Space to reconnect with your body.
Walk beside the loch, discover villages and castles, or follow a trail into the Scottish landscape.
Play, experiment and express yourself through creative activities. Curiosity is all you need.
Shared meals, fireside conversations and meaningful time with a small group of women.
Rest, reflect, journal, book a massage, or simply do nothing. Unstructured time belongs here.
Notice what becomes possible when you feel supported, grounded and free to choose.
A GLIMPSE OF WILD & ROOTED
The space between doing and resting.
The space between solitude and connection.
The space between familiar and new.
The space between listening and responding.
IS THIS FOR YOU?
For women who want something deeper than a traditional vacation, with room for rest and choice.
No yoga experience is required. Hiking is optional. Rest and quiet time are welcome.
