Imagine waking up surrounded by the lush fields of Normandy, where the day begins with a gentle morning yoga class and meditation session led by one of our expert Vinyasa Flow & Ashtanga yoga teachers. As you breathe in the tranquility of the surroundings, you'll feel your senses come alive.

Following your yoga practice, a nourishing breakfast awaits, fueling your creativity for the morning ahead. In our Women's Creativity Retreats, Alison guides you through Art Expression, a journey of self-discovery and emotional exploration. By letting go of control and embracing the process, you'll surrender to the present moment and unlock your true potential.

As you create, you'll uncover the power of art to reveal your authentic self. With every brushstroke, every splash of color, you'll tap into your inner world and unleash your creativity. It's not about perfection; it's about connection – with yourself, with others, with nature, and with what truly matters.

Alison's passion is to remind you of the importance of self-love and connection. Her wish is for you to return home with a deeper sense of self-awareness, self-acceptance, and love. As an art therapist and artist, she'll help you explore and express yourself authentically, embracing the healing power of art.

After a morning of creative expression, a delicious lunch awaits, followed by a rejuvenating massage to pamper your body and soul. The afternoon unfolds with more art meditation and creativity, a chance to quiet the mind and tap into your inner wisdom. Think of Art Meditation as a serene pause, a moment to breathe, reflect, and connect with your true self.
