Back to Nature

A Creative Women’s Retreat on the island of Brač

15-19 May 2026

'Back to Nature' is a soul-nourishing retreat where we gather by the sea to create and connect, and in the embrace of nature, remember our own.

About the Retreat

It is in our nature to create — with our hands, with plants, with simple, beautiful things drawn from the earth.

It is in our nature to gather — by the sea, around the fire, in circle with other women.

It is in our nature to soften — into presence, into connection, into the simplicity of being.

Our retreat is an invitation to that natural way of living.

On the island of Brač, surrounded by sea, wild herbs, and open sky, we step away from noise and into simplicity.

We gather plants and turn them into teas, scrubs, and nourishing body care. We dye fabric with leaves, make candles infused with essential oils. We share sauna rituals, swim in the Adriatic, cook around the fire, and sit together in circle under the New Moon.

Through nature, creativity, and our women’s circle, we invite you to enjoy simple and soulful moments together.

The Island​

Brač is one of the most beautiful islands in Croatia, known for its crystal-clear Adriatic Sea, white stone, olive groves, and wild Mediterranean herbs.

Life here moves at a slower pace. The air carries the scent of pine and rosemary, and the landscape feels simple, natural, and deeply grounding.

Brač is not only our location, but one of the co-facilitators of this retreat — holding us in its sea, its landscape, and its quiet presence as creativity, rest, and connection unfold. 

The island gently supports us in slowing down and reconnecting to the earth and to our own inner nature.

Though it feels like a world away, Brač is just a short 25-minute boat ride from Split.

Our Island Home

Our retreat takes place in a private villa, just a few minutes from the beach.

The house is spacious, light, and welcoming — with three bedrooms, three bathrooms, and two living areas that offer both comfort and room to unwind. It allows us to move naturally between connection and quiet, with plenty of space for everyone.

Outside, the courtyard, terrace, and balcony with sea views become part of our rhythm — for slow mornings, shared meals, and evenings under the sky. The pool invites us to cool off, soften, and relax between our practices.

Close to the sea and within walking distance of the town, yet peaceful and tucked away, this villa becomes our home — a place to land and to feel held.
