Why The Connection Retreat is Exactly What You Need in 2025
In a world that never stops moving, where notifications, responsibilities, and deadlines pull us in every direction, it’s easy to feel disconnected—from ourselves, from others, and from what truly matters. That’s why in 2025, taking intentional time to reset and reconnect is more important than ever.
Enter The Connection Retreat, a 3-day immersive retreat in Scotland designed to help you step away from the noise and return to yourself. Here’s why this retreat might be exactly what you need this year.
1. Reconnect with Yourself
When was the last time you truly checked in with yourself—beyond the surface-level “I’m fine” response? This retreat is an opportunity to slow down, breathe, and gain clarity on what you really want from life. Through yoga, meditation, breathwork, and journaling, you’ll create space to listen to your own thoughts without distraction. If you have always wanted to go to a yoga retreat in Scotland - this is the one for you!
2. A Break from the Digital World
Let’s be honest: our screens take up more time than we’d like to admit. Social media, emails, and endless scrolling keep us busy but not necessarily fulfilled. At The Connection Retreat, you’ll swap notifications for nature, deep conversations, and mindful presence—and trust us, your nervous system will thank you.
3. Nourishment for the Body and Mind
This retreat is about more than just relaxation—it’s about replenishment. Expect wholesome, nourishing meals, gentle movement, and activities designed to help you feel physically and emotionally refreshed. Whether it’s a cacao ceremony, a restorative yoga session, or simply sitting in stillness, every part of the retreat is crafted to support your well-being.
4. Build Meaningful Connections
We often underestimate the power of genuine human connection. Whether you come alone or with a friend, you’ll be surrounded by a supportive, like-minded community. Expect deep conversations, shared laughter, and friendships that last far beyond the retreat weekend.
5. The Perfect Reset Before the Year Ends
September is the ideal time to pause and reflect before the final months of the year. This retreat will help you recalibrate your energy, set new intentions, and step into the rest of 2025 feeling grounded and inspired.

Here are five common Q&As for our retreat:
How is accommodation organised?
Accommodation is shared OR solo depending on your wants & budget, with triple rooms OR double rooms if you want a room to yourself. If you're coming with a friend, let us know, and we’ll pair you together. If you're coming alone, we’ll match you with like-minded roommates. The retreat is designed to be a communal, connected experience, and the shared spaces reflect that.
2. Can I come alone?
Absolutely! Many people join solo, and it’s a great way to meet like-minded women in a supportive, welcoming space. Whether you come alone or with a friend, you’ll leave with new connections and a sense of belonging.
3. Do I have to join in all the activities?
Nope! Everything is optional. We encourage you to take part in the sessions, but if you feel like resting, journaling, or taking a solo walk in nature instead, that’s completely up to you. This weekend is about what feels good for you.
4. What’s included in the price?
Your booking covers everything—accommodation, nourishing meals, snacks, all activities, and workshops. The only thing you need to arrange is your transport to and from the retreat location.
5. How do I book?
To secure your spot, a 50% deposit is due by 31st March, with the remaining balance to be paid by 10th July. Spaces are limited, so if you're ready to join us,
