Wisdom
Retreat
with Georgina Peard
& Marija Kocijasevic
8-10 September 2023
near Neuchâtel, Switzerland
A gently powerful
3-day retreat for heart- and soul-centred women
This is your space to deepen into your own expression of the feminine, trust yourself and your embodied wisdom, and learn practical ways to confidently integrate the power of womanhood in your everyday life.
Over the last three years, women who joined the Embodied Feminine Wisdom retreats have shared that they are experiencing true transformation in their lives. This is not just another retreat. It's an initiation, supported by genuine sisterhood and community.
Georgina and Marija join together once again to offer you a truly uplifting and joyful experience.
Ready to explore your wild loving nature?
Is this retreat for you?
- you feel the challenges of moving through different stages of womanhood and life, feeling so much, and would love to feel supported and connected to a circle of women and genuine sisterhood.
-
you've spent most your life driven by your mind, you feel a bit disconnected or not fully alive or confident in your body as a feminine woman, and you know that more pleasure is possible.
-
you're going through a big change in your life, perhaps in your work or relationships, and you'd like to discern where to put your energy to be more authentically you and feel more ease and joy going forward.
-
you want to be met as a woman and enjoy all aspects of your feminine nature in relationships with men.
- you feel a lot and want ways to regulate your nervous system, navigate your emotions and sensitivities, to share more of you and your love.
- you feel emotional charge around motherhood - wanting to become a mother, not able to be a mother, or transitioning out of being primarily focused on mothering.
- you feel a deep calling for the Sacred Feminine, and want to create some sacred space to explore more, through your own body, inner wisdom and voice.
- you long for more authentic heart and soul connection, new ways of living and loving, and to see beyond dualities and separation.
- you want to contribute in some way to a world based on connection, love and respect, attuned with the rhythms of (your) Nature?
The Power of women gathering in sisterhood is immeasurable. Together each woman reclaims her own natural Queendom.
Your presence and your being matters!
This is an intimate group experience for up to 10 women on a path of self awareness, personal growth and love. We’ll be journeying deep together - supporting, reflecting, challenging and celebrating each other.
Embodied Feminine Wisdom is essential for re-birthing and nurturing a new society. One based on love, embracing the gifts of our vulnerability, and caring for life.
Every woman is a doula for this process.
Every woman a leader of her own life.
By dropping deeper into your body you'll become familiar with the language of the feminine, and reveal your unique way to express and dance in her current of wild love.
Embodiment...
is a courageous and intimate path to meet yourself in and as the deep current of life, and to belong to your wholeness.
This is your time
3 days dedicated to You.
Simplicity. Close to nature.
A small intimate group.
A journey of love through your body
to self-care and listen deeply (with radical honesty),
to rest, release, activate, and expand,
to become vibrantly alive and actively engaged
in this sacred Life.
What does your heart say ?
How does your womb respond ?
Through a combination of Somatic, Yogic, Tantric, Shamanic, and Circling approaches, you'll be exploring how to:
- connect more intimately with your body, nature, and others,
- release attachment to old wounds, identities and limiting beliefs,
- nurture inner safety, trust, confidence and sisterhood,
- reactivate life-force, inner fire and vitality,
- express your vulnerable and authentic self, your light and dark,
- navigate change and transformation,
- rest into uncertainty and mystery,
- listen to your heart-womb wisdom, and
- share your love, truth and the gift of your presence.
What will you get?
-
you'll get intimate with a group of women who'll encourage you to access some of your feminine aspects which might be suppressed or never lived. Yes you'll feel a level of trust and safety which your body and soul needs to surrender.
-
you'll be more comfortable with being vulnerable and feel the full range of emotions.
-
you'll rewrite a narrative about your relationship with your body and open even more your heart.
-
you'll remember and open up to play and sensuality.
-
you'll cultivate greater resilience, ease, meaning and direction from your experiences and natural gifts.
-
you'll experience your full aliveness, feel confident, grounded and aligned with your inner knowing.
-
you'll feel empowered with tools, practices and ways of relating, to help navigate life with more self-leadership.
-
you'll open to more love and compassion and be an example of this.
YOU ARE EMBODIED LOVE
To remember this we engage the power of sisterhood and community. We help each other to remember, rest in and rise up. We lovingly hold up mirrors to each other that reflect the beauty in both our light and dark, so that each woman accesses her authentic power and unique radiance.
The programme is created to accompany you on a deepening journey of self-awareness, acceptance, love and freedom, as you navigate the energy, rhythms, cycles and unknown of life. We shift attention from the outer world to explore the wonderfully dynamic landscape of your inner world. We descend from the mind to the vital energy of the body.
The intention for this retreat is to tune into your inner resources, connecting to your heart-womb-earth wisdom, and to feel the natural impulse of aliveness that moves you. It is to cultivate trust in this inner guide, as well as your capacity to navigate life.

Tanya
I am a transformational life coach and massage therapist who has complex PTSD. I have experienced many different workshops in my healing process and I have to testify that this was the most profound, empowering embodiment workshop I have ever experienced. Marija and Georgina hold space and invite you to go deeper like ….hmm I don’t even have a word for it. Perhaps "grace" would be the best word.
I invite you to give yourself the gift of embodying yourself and take a dive into the unknown with openesss to allow the magic to unfold. I'm feeling deeply blessed to have this experience. Thank you
Kamy
We’ll be working with the body's intelligence, with personal and transpersonal energies, to release outdated patterns and beliefs, engage your creative life-force, and rise rooted in self leadership, sisterhood and love.
LET LIFE MOVE YOU
Explore a more expanded experience of who you are, why you are here and how you relate to the world.
The Programme
WHAT WILL WE DO?
Our days include exploring a variety of embodiment meditation and practices, working with yin and yang, dark and light, heart and womb, earth and sky energies; activating, moving and expanding the emotional-energetic bodies.
We'll have different shamanic rituals each day to honour and journey with Nature, the elements and our life-force.
Circle (Forum, Heart iQ etc.) will support our awareness, deep healing and integration, and expansion. We will learn how better to regulate our nervous system in order to be more resilient and open for life and relating.
We have 3 group sessions per day, 2 meals and breaks for journaling, rest and integration.
We'll have time outdoors immersing with mother Earth.
Unlearn to remember
Come prepared to unwind, release, come undone, unlearn, transform, crack open, reveal, remember, and rebirth. Let yourself be confused, vulnerable, surprised, powerful, wild. Come to rest, dance, cry, sing, move, vibrate in love, and remember who you are on a deeper soul level and on a human embodied level.
The language of the feminine ...
is non-verbal and non-linear. She is subtle, sensual, lyrical, playful, chaotic, erotic, ecstatic.... It’s through the body that we’ll journey, creating space and exploring how it is to listen to a deeper intelligence. We’ll be sharing some theory and concepts with you, as well as myths to support the deeper journeying. Sharing our personal queries, feelings, needs and revelations will be of huge support for each other. As will Nature.

Listen to Cynthia's experience
What other women say
I know for me to feel safe in any women's circle there has to be emotional intelligence and trauma informed sensitivity - both utterly key to my healing.
The way you Georgina and Marija graciously and honestly held and created safe space for us to move and be so vulnerable really solidified my trust in this work ~ in the dark feminine magic!
Watching you navigate our group while still holding true nurturing space for us and asserting yourself with love is something I feel honored to have been a part of.
The examples of leadership you've showed I found loving, supportive and authentic that give me the freedom and safety to express my true self just the way I was even if I staggered into the space heavy and blind with self judgment.
