SENSUAL AWAKENING

A 3-night women’s retreat inspired by the Water element to awaken your sensuality, surrender to pleasure, ignite your creativity & flow with life.

May 15-18, 2025 | Gstaad, Swiss Alps

Step into the fluid embrace of water, where you can reconnect with the deepest parts of your feminine essence. This retreat is inspired by the Water element, a symbol of sensuality, surrender, and creative expression. It offers a sanctuary to help you soften, rediscover pleasure, and move through life with greater ease and grace.

Over 3 days, we will nurture your body, mind, and spirit through practices that awaken your sensuality and creativity. From meditation and breathwork to feminine healing rituals and heartfelt sharing circles, each experience is designed to help you release resistance, embrace your emotions, and tap into your natural rhythms.

This retreat is an invitation to feel deeply, awaken your inner joy, and celebrate the pleasure of simply being present in your body. Together, we will explore what it means to embody the essence of water—soft yet powerful, gentle yet transformative.

Allow yourself to be held by the wisdom of the Water element as you experience a true sensual awakening, reconnecting with your vitality, pleasure and innate feminine essence.

  • Thank you so much for the most expansive and life changing retreat. I am deeply grateful for the experience which has allowed me to connect to my soul in ways that I’ve never experienced. I received the most powerful insights about myself and my soul’s journey. So much laughter, tears and deep connections were made. Thank you for helping me to embrace my divine feminine heart and to connect to the magic within me.

  • This women’s retreat was one of the best experiences of my life. It was a very well rounded combo of rest, mindfulness, healing, movement and connection with other women and nature. Nour is the gift that keeps on giving. She effortlessly created a safe space for all the women to share feelings, traumas and hidden thoughts. She led us into meditation, yoga practices and workshops but more importantly created a safe space for all the women to connect and invite healing and growth in a few short days. She also gave us tools and practices to take home with us while we continue to connect with our feminine hearts. I will be the first to sign up for the next retreat!

  • This retreat truly was the kickstart to everything that has happened internally and externally since then. It definitely cracked something open and has been the catalyst for all that followed after; my world is greatly shifting. I think the biggest things that have happened are discovering and working through unresolved trauma, and opening myself to love again. And for work I’ve decided to take a leap and follow my calling to become a Doula, which starts next year. Life is happening :) I’ll treasure my time at this retreat for a long time to come.

  • We cried, we laughed and we ignited the fire within us together. The amount of love that we all felt together was truly magical. And all of that was only possible because we could deeply trust Nour and the space she created for us. These few days felt like a dream and a necessity for the soul. I recommend anyone take part in such a retreat as it really is an experience you’ll never forget! I walk away feeling so refreshed and filled with so much love. And as a huge plus I have also made some friends for life!

    Safia

  • This women’s retreat was one of the most intimate and deeply touching experiences I’ve ever had. Nour has such a beautiful and loving nature, her authenticity is inspiring and she has the ability to create such a safe space for human beings, to be seen just as they are, without any form of judgment. Her embodiment practices and tools, intertwined with mindfulness are gifts that I will carry with me forever, and being able to implement them into my day to day life has been a real game changer. I left this retreat feeling so nourished, connected to myself and others, rested and deeply grateful.

    Jennifer

  • I am beyond grateful for this journey and would highly recommend it to any and all women! I have met the most amazing women and have learned so much from each and everyone of them. They now all hold a special place in my heart and this experience was worth every moment. I can’t wait for the next retreat with Nour!

    Aya

  • THANK YOU - from the bottom of my heart. Thank you for this wonderful journey into me, surrounded by beautiful nature and wonderful souls who held space and time for me and my path of healing. Nour, you created a space that was so filled with love and security. You supported me to get closer to my essence and gave tools and possibilities to continue my deep work of healing and creation of power. I will come back and support you wherever I can.
