Feminine Power Retreat
6-night women-only retreat with Simone Farschi and Mariya Grinina: a journey of deep connection to the Feminine nature, rejuvenation, and the discovery of profound self-love.
April 29 - May 5 2024
At the Broughton Sanctuary, a magical 3000 acres estate in the UK
In a time when the whole world seems to be tearing itself apart, yet you know within your bones that there is nectar inside, there is a way to come back home to our truest nature.
To love deeply, courageously, in harmony with each other, with our men, with our children, to relearn the way of the feminine to put us back into balance.
This retreat is for women who are prepared to delve deeper into their journeys of self-development
As we come together as women over these 7 days (6 nights), you will evolve into receiving the codes to return to your world and tend to your hearts, revive your sensuality, tend to your bodies through ceremony and ritual, allow yourself to tend to your lover with reverence and gratitude, tend to your communities with grace and devotion.
The light within you lights the light within us all.
We will weave our stories and our strengths as guardians of the rose, as pillars of these sacred rites.

We will work with nature immersion, somatic tools, embodiment practices, and sacred sexuality rituals, in magical outdoor spaces and luxurious, impeccable facilities.
This retreat suits women of any age, including pre & post-menopausal women.

Any words I write are unable to express how grateful I am that Simone entered my life. Despite being 1000 of kilometers away, she connects deeply with me and guides me through my winding intimacy journey. In person, she held me in her eyes, her hands, her heart with loving caring intuition.

As someone unfamiliar with Somatica, Simone patiently guided me through my questions and set my body and mind at ease. Lasting well beyond the session, I felt a sense of lightness, confidence, and something akin to every cell buzzing with love.

I experienced trauma when I was 20 that completely took away any connection I had to my body. I used to feel suicidal, and now I feel curious and positive about body, pleasure and sexuality.

Having struggled with burnout and too much masculine energy in my life, I am so happy I’ve discovered Mariya’s work and Feel. Thank you for helping me connect to and feel my beautiful body.

It is never been easy for me to start a relationship, due to vaginismus, and at some point I stopped trying and avoided relationships for almost 7 years. With the feminine embodiment work, I've learnt to connect to my body and love it more, and now I am happy in a relationship.

Working with Simone at the Yumm Retreat was one of the most profoundly transformative experiences I’ve ever had in my life, and I do not say that lightly! The Retreat pushed me to explore my edges. To come together with other women doing this deep work to heal and cultivate the erotic in their own lives was ecstatic, orgasmic and so nurturing.
