Yes. Most guests come solo. From the moment you arrive you’ll be welcomed into a warm, open-hearted group, with plenty of space for both quiet time and connection. We have the loveliest guests and have seen so many beautiful friendships form on retreat.

Yes. You don’t need to be “good at yoga” to come. The retreat is open to all levels, though we do ask that you’re familiar with a simple sun salutation. I’ll always offer options so you can move in a way that feels kind and supportive for your body.

Abundant, colourful and deeply nourishing. All meals are dairy-free, gluten-free, vegetarian (with eggs) and refined sugar-free - created to stabilise and nourish your nervous system, not restrict you. Guests often comment on how surprised they are by how well-fed they feel.

In most cases, yes. When you book, you’ll be able to share your dietary needs and we’ll confirm what’s possible with our chefs so we can prepare in advance. We can’t safely cater for extreme nut allergies, but for most other requirements we’ll do our best to make sure you feel well cared for.

We don’t serve alcohol on retreat. Tea and coffee (regular and decaf) are available at breakfast, and you’re invited to notice what feels most supportive for your body and nervous system during the week.

Yes. The rhythm of the week is deliberately spacious. There are generous breaks between sessions for rest, treatments, reading, journalling, walks or simply lying by the pool and doing nothing.

Possibly. I’m not a trained pregnancy yoga teacher, so extra care is important, especially in the first trimester. That said, many pregnant guests have joined over the years and found the retreat deeply nourishing. There is so much more than yoga you can be part of. Please email before booking so we can talk through your stage of pregnancy and whether this retreat is right for you.

Think comfortable layers for practice, swimwear, something cosy for evenings and your usual travel essentials. Each room has delicious natural aromatherapy shampoo, conditioner and body wash, as well as a hairdryer. Pool towels and room towels are provided. Before the retreat you’ll receive a simple packing list so you feel fully prepared.

A group return transfer between Málaga Airport and the retreat venue (around 1.5 hours) is included in your retreat price. 

In order to make the most of this, it’s important that your flight works to the following: 

Arrivals: ready to leave Málaga Airport by 15:30 (flights landing before 14:45)

Depratures: arriving at Málaga Airport by 11:30 (flights from 13:30/14:00 onwards)

If your flights fall outside these times, you’re welcome to arrange your own taxi or hire a car from the airport, which is often very affordable and lovely for exploring during your stay. We can help you with this. We’re also close to Gibraltar Airport (around 1 hour) if it’s easier for you to fly in there and arrange a transfer.

Check-in is from 17:00 on arrival day and check-out is at 10:00 on departure day. It’s not possible to arrive earlier or remain at the venue beyond these times.

Your deposit is non-refundable. If you need to cancel more than 12 weeks before the retreat, any additional payments you’ve made will be refunded. Within 12 weeks of the start date, we’re unable to offer refunds, but if we can fill your place we’ll always do our best to explore options with you.

Soulshine Reset is not a “quick escape” or a generic yoga holiday. It’s a depth-led, trauma-sensitive experience that weaves together yoga, somatic work, Internal Family Systems, breathwork, ceremony, sound healing and space for deep rest and integration. Built on over a decade of Soulshine Retreats, it’s designed for women seeking meaningful inner change, not simply a week away, with practices and insights that continue to support you long after you return home.

Our wider team includes both men and women, but the guest group itself is women-only. Over the years we’ve seen how powerful it is when women can truly soften, be honest, be messy and be real together. Many women return year after year - you’ll be in very good company.
