"There was a light and supportive atmosphere. The communal meals, circles, allowing for vulnerability and group activities helped to shape this. I felt held and nourished and inspired. The location was beautiful and allowed for the relaxation I wanted from the retreat. The food was amazing. I think it’s the best I’ve ever eaten - absolute feasts every meal."
