The kind of healing only nature can offer

Human Nature Ecotherapy retreats are women-only gatherings designed to help you step away from daily demands and reconnect deeply with yourself and the natural world. Each retreat offers an immersive ecotherapy experience, combining guided nature-based sessions with supportive group activities, nourishing meals, and time for rest and reflection.

Retreats range from weekend getaways to five-day immersions in stunning natural settings, from mountains and forests to coastal landscapes. Every location is chosen for its sense of peace, beauty, and accessibility, with options at a variety of price points to make the experience open to all.

Whether you’re seeking grounding, clarity, or renewal, these retreats offer the space and support to slow down, breathe deeply, and return home to yourself.

Where women gather to heal through the wisdom of nature

Step away from the noise and remember what it feels like to be fully present.

These retreats are for women who feel the constant pull of responsibilities, screens, and schedules, those who give so much to others but rarely have time to truly care for themselves. If you’ve been craving a deeper pause, this is your invitation.

Through immersive ecotherapy, you’ll begin to retrain your body and mind to slow down, regulate, and find balance again. You’ll explore simple, repeatable tools and nature-based practices that help you meet stress, change, and everyday life with steadiness and clarity.

Whether you’re navigating burnout, transition, or simply longing for space to reconnect, these retreats offer the time, guidance, and natural environment to support genuine growth and healing, the kind that lasts long after you return home.

Retreat FAQ

What is a typical retreat like?

A Human Nature Ecotherapy retreat is designed to feel spacious, restorative, and deeply human, never rushed or over-scheduled. Each day follows a natural rhythm of guided ecotherapy sessions, quiet reflection, and supportive group connection, allowing you to slow down and fully arrive in your surroundings.

Mornings often begin with gentle movement or mindfulness practice, followed by immersive nature experiences that encourage grounding, awareness, and presence. Afternoons offer time for rest, journaling, or solo exploration, while evenings may include shared meals, community circles, or fireside reflection.

Each retreat is fully catered with nourishing, seasonal meals and designed to meet you where you are, whether you’re new to this work or deepening your personal practice. Special guests and restorative enrichments such as sound healing, creative expression, or body-based practices help expand the horizon for healing, while local excursions connect participants with the land and community that make each location unique.

The pace is unhurried, the environment supportive, and the focus simple: to help you reconnect with yourself and the healing power of nature.

How long do the retreats last?

Retreats range from weekend gatherings to five-day immersions, each thoughtfully designed to fit different schedules and needs. Shorter retreats offer a gentle reset and reconnection, while longer immersions allow for deeper reflection, rest, and transformation.

For those who wish to extend their stay, there’s also the option to add independent days before or after the retreat, giving you extra time to arrive slowly, explore the area, or integrate what you experienced before returning home.

Who can attend retreats?

Human Nature Ecotherapy retreats are open to any woman who feels called to slow down, reconnect, and heal through nature. You don’t need prior experience with meditation, mindfulness, or ecotherapy, just a willingness to be present and open to the process.

These retreats are especially supportive for those seeking a deeper, longer immersion in the tools and practices of ecotherapy, women who want to move beyond a single session and truly integrate the rhythms of nature into their daily lives. Whether you’re navigating stress, burnout, life transitions, or simply craving space to breathe and begin again, you’ll find a welcoming, inclusive environment where you can rest, reflect, and restore at your own pace.

Each retreat is designed to be accessible and adaptable for a range of physical abilities and comfort levels. No matter your background, experience, or season of life, you’ll be met with compassion, community, and the understanding that healing in nature is for everyone.

What is Ecotherapy?

Ecotherapy is the practice of reconnecting with the natural world as a way to support emotional, mental, and physical wellbeing. It’s rooted in the understanding that humans are not separate from nature, we are part of it. When we spend intentional time outdoors, we begin to remember that connection. The pace of the natural world invites us to slow down, regulate our nervous system, and find calm and clarity in the present moment.

Unlike traditional talk therapy, ecotherapy uses nature itself as the setting and partner in the healing process. Sessions often include guided reflection, mindfulness, sensory awareness, and grounding practices that help quiet the mind and bring us back to the body. The focus isn’t on analyzing or fixing, but on noticing and experiencing. In nature, we can see our own cycles mirrored, like the change, rest, growth, and renewal that remind us we’re not meant to be in constant motion.

Ecotherapy can take many forms, from guided group experiences and one-on-one immersions to virtual and self-guided sessions that can be done from your own backyard or favorite local park. Regardless of the format, the intention is the same: to help you feel supported, reconnected, and more at ease within yourself and your surroundings.

At its core, ecotherapy is about returning to something simple and universal: the healing relationship between humans and the earth. It offers space to breathe, listen, and rediscover balance without pressure, performance, or perfection. Just you, the natural world, and the quiet reminder that you already belong here.

What activities are included?

Each retreat is designed as a fully supported experience so you can relax and focus entirely on your healing and connection with nature. Your registration includes comfortable accommodations, all nourishing, chef-prepared meals, and all retreat programming and special guest sessions.

In some locations, transportation from the nearest airport and local excursions are also included to help you settle in and experience the beauty and culture of the area. You can also expect a few thoughtful surprises and delights along the way, small touches meant to make you feel cared for and grounded in the moment.

Every detail is thoughtfully chosen to create an experience that feels intentional, restorative, and effortless, allowing you to simply arrive and be present.

What happens after the session?

The experience doesn’t end when the retreat does. You’ll leave with tools, practices, and personal insights you can carry into your everyday life, including gentle ways to stay grounded, mindful, and connected to yourself no matter where you are. Many guests find that the habits and memories formed during their time in nature naturally weave into their routines at home.

You’ll also receive personal notes and reflections to help you continue integrating what you’ve learned. And if you’d like ongoing support, we can stay connected through virtual one-on-one sessions or in-person ecotherapy experiences in Colorado, helping you deepen your practice and keep that sense of calm and clarity alive long after you return.
