If you’ve ever joked about quitting your job, moving to the country and starting a commune with a bunch of incredible women, this is about as close as we can get without requiring you to actually quit your job.
The Slow Life Retreat is four days specifically for women aged 30-45 who are craving deeper female friendships, less screen time, more time in nature and remembering what it feels like to have someone take care of everything for you.
Your life might be full, but not always in the way you want it to be. Your closest friends are busy, making plans requires 2 months’ notice, everyone’s tired, and the simple stuff like long lunches, spontaneous chats, being creative and spending an afternoon doing absolutely nothing has become a luxury.
We’re here to change that, and you can come experience what living on 40 acres of organic farmland with the most amazing group of women can feel like.
This retreat is a collaboration between Conscious Connection and Elementa, combining what we do best: creating real friendships and community, alongside inspiring wellbeing, movement and creative experiences.

Come solo (most do!) or bring a friend and join a small group of women at the beautiful Wybalena Organic Farm in the Byron Bay Hinterland.
From the moment you arrive, everything is taken care of.
Your days will be filled with slow mornings, incredible food, gentle movement, creativity, nature, ridiculously good conversations and plenty of downtime.
Think morning yoga overlooking the trees, coffee with new friends, wandering down to the lake, painting by the water, making pasta together, swimming in the pool, sitting around a fire talking about life and accidentally staying up hours later than planned because you’ve found women you really click with.
There’s a schedule, but this isn't bootcamp. Everything is optional. Read a book. Have a nap. Get a massage. Sit in the sauna. Wander around the property. Join every activity. Choose what makes you feel like YOU again.

-
You miss having a group of girlfriends you can call for spontaneous dinners, weekend adventures and long chats about absolutely everything.
You want friendships that feel mutual, easy and genuinely supportive, not another follower you occasionally react to on Instagram.
You’re successful and capable, but secretly pretty tired of always being productive.
You’ve been craving more nature, creativity, movement and things that make you feel alive rather than just busy.
You want to slow down without disappearing into a silent wellness retreat where someone confiscates your coffee and makes you meditate for nine hours.
And you want to meet women who are still curious, adventurous and excited about what the next chapter of life could look like.
This retreat is a collaboration between Conscious Connection and Elementa, combining what we do best: creating genuine friendships and community, alongside thoughtful wellbeing, movement and creative experiences.
