Placed in shady little nooks around the 5 acres of Soul Farm Sanctuary, you’ll find the luxury canvas tents that you will call home for the duration of the retreat.

Each tent is fully equipped with a comfy queen-sized bed and bedding. So no need to pack any extra. From pillows to extra blankets, we’ve got you covered. Literally.

Sleep under the stars, close to the earth, and with the horses around you working on you while you dream.

Choose between going solo in your own private tent, or booking the shared option. Both come with Queen beds.

We’ve got all of your meals fully covered.

From breakfasts and lunches on the farm, to gourmet pizza on the beach, a big long table dinner, and a 24/7 healthy snack basket, we’ve made sure you will be nourished both body and soul (and that includes Thirza’s handmade chocolate).

All of it local and organic whenever possible, and all of it made with love.

Food sensitivities? No worries. Us too.

Once you’ve reserved your spot, we’ll ask you for any food sensitivities and we’ll make sure you’re well taken care of.

For 3 days of the retreat, we will meet with the herd as a group to receive their healing energies.

The horses will naturally ‘entrain’ you which means they will balance your heart rate, breathing, brainwaves, and energetic state to match theirs so that they can still spot a predator.

The heartmath institute has done studies on this to explain what horse medicine is. This, with a lot of added intuitive feedback and information is what you’ll experience with the herd.

Join Katie in the gathering tent at your leisure in the morning to journal on a few prompts for the day.

Whether it be the prompts she creates for the group, or if you’d like her to create a few personally for you, take this morning's time to connect to that knowing inner voice within and see what emerges.

When you are in an environment, an energetic container, where you feel safe and connected, naturally things will rise to the surface. This is the most potent kind of healing because it is not forced.

Throughout our time together, we’ll be there for those moments when something comes up and you need a little individual support. Whether it’s a chat, a hug, a good cry - we’ve got your back.

We’re both very experienced with supporting people to work through the tough stuff and will be here if you need a little extra support.

Rest can be an illusive thing. Something we don’t allow ourselves to actually experience.

Not just surface rest, but deep true rest. The kind of rest where we let go and allow ourselves to fall into the feeling of being held.

If you need to sleep in, sleep in. If you need a nap, take a nap. If rest is what you need most, take it.

We’ve set up lots of opportunities for you to rest around the property. Whether it be your luxury tent, a hammock hanging beneath the trees, or a private outdoor massage, you’ll have plenty of time every day to let your body, mind, and soul fully unwind.

*Massages are booked on a person-to-person basis as an add-on option to the retreat.

One thing we wanted to make sure we didn’t do, was schedule the sh*t out of your day. Each day after lunch we’ve created space for free time.

Whether you choose to go to one of the many beautiful beaches, walk one of the many beautiful trails, paddleboard, explore the shops, hang in one of our hammocks, sit with the horses, take a nap, read a book, or do absolutely nothing - the choice is yours.

Whatever feels good to you, do that.

On two of our nights together we will gather around the fire. Come cozy up around the dancing flames with a blanket, a snack, and something to drink.

As humans, we have been gathering around the fire for thousands of years. It’s a place for connection and sharing stories. And something most of us don’t get to experience often enough.

Come sit around the fire with us and let it work its magic.

Feeling isolated and alone in our experience is all too common these days. There can be a lot of trauma and grief in feeling like you have no one to turn to. In feeling unseen in your experience.

Everything about this retreat is designed with connection and community in mind. There is immense healing that happens when you feel like you can lean into community and be fully held.

We’re ready for you with open hearts and open arms.

Fully Submersed in Nature

This entire retreat you will be completely submersed in nature. From sleeping in beautiful canvas tents in the great outdoors, nights around the fire, a sunset on the beach, eating alfresco, hanging from hammocks beneath the trees, you will be bathed in nature head to toe from the moment you arrive to the moment you leave.

Introverted Nooks

If you fancy yourself a bit of an introvert, we’ve got you covered.

There will be strategically placed hammocks set up around the property for you to go to if you need a little time alone. Curl up with a book, your journal, or just to close your eyes and take a nap.

If you need time alone, take it. As much of it as you need. No questions asked.

The Gathering Tent

Full of blankets and pillows and all sorts of cozy things, the gathering tent is just that, a place to gather. Whether it be our breakfast and morning card pulls, journal prompts with Katie, or a place to rest and chat with a friend. It will be where we all come together and available for you to use whenever you like.

Morning Card Pulls

Come into the gathering tent every morning and pull a card for yourself. With an abundance of decks to choose from, you can tune into what one calls your name and receive a message to start your day.

Ocean swims & Forest Walks

On the map you’ll receive when you arrive, we’ll point out the best swimming beaches and forest trails to enjoy. So during your free time if you fancy a dip in the ocean or a connecting walk amongst the trees, you’ll know exactly where to go.

Pizza on the Beach at Sunset

Join us for a sunset swim and pizza on the beach. Feel the warm sand between your toes and sip on a glass of bubbly while we celebrate being alive. At nightfall watch the sky light up with stars and the ocean light up with the bioluminescence.

The Long Table Dinner

Join us for a long table dinner under the stars. Get dressed up and adorn yourself in something that makes you feel beautiful (and comfortable!) and sit down for a delicious meal and Katie’s famous margaritas!

A Visit to the Saturday Market

The Saturday market on Gabriola is a must-have experience. Hustling and bustling with local vendors you can find handmade soap, beautiful jewelry, freshly baked bread and scones, bunches of lavender, locally made skin care, music, fresh fruits and veggies, and much more.

Optional Massage

If you’d like a massage under the canopy of the trees while you’re with us, let us know and we’ll book one for you during your free time at an additional fee.
