Wonder in the Woods

Established in 2017, the Wonder in the Woods retreat is a seasonal women’s therapeutic retreat in the mountains of Idyllwild, California. The intention of this retreat is to provide a safe place for women to heal, unwind from daily life, and experience deep connection to mother nature. This weekend retreat is deeply therapeutic and explores our connection to the non-human world.
