LOVE WITHIN

Women's Day Retreat

FEBRUARY 21, 2026 

SECLUDED RETREAT LODGE | BOURBON, MO 

1 hour drive from St. Louis, MO 63116

Saturday  |  9am - 5pm CST

An all-inclusive Day Retreat for women ready to return their roots, come home to the Self,

and ground into the love within.

A few things we hope for you ...

​

  • Release the burden of your own and other's expectations

  • Release guilt and shame connected to the version of you that other's may have (unknowingly or knowingly) created 

  • Deeper connection to Self with a sense of Reclamation

  • Develop a sense of boundaries : knowing and understanding your own bodies' sense of yes and no

  • Ground yourself and your being in nature - in a non-judgmental, open and curious space

  • Feel more grounded, open, and clear at the conclusion of our time together

  • Feel into your own sense of freedom and connection to yourself and/or the spiritual world around you

As well, Brooke is a 200 Hour RYT Yoga Teacher and Pranic Healing practitioner, while Jean is also trained in Internal Family Systems (IFS).
