3 Day De-stress lush Retreat on the Sunshine Coast Hinterland. 

Relax and Unwind!

Take a few precious moments to carve out some time for yourself to regroup, refresh and replenish amongst like minded women in the sacred energy of retreat in a lush tropical rainforest. 

It's all about you!

The sacred atmosphere of retreat allows you to escape from the world and connect back with your essential nature. From your own deeper, inner connection you can then move back into the world balanced, centred and grounded.

About Vanessa Rudge

Feeling like a strong women most of her life, the shift to softening and welcoming the feminine has been a slow process.  Some things we need to "learn the hard way" so that we can really learn it. 

Softness holds incredible power, like the way a small trickle of a river can carve an enormous canyon.

From personal experience this lesson has been learnt and she now enjoys sharing insight and teaching this to others.



"When the well's dry, we know the worth of water" Benjamin Franklin

 We are excited to offer this beautiful retreat, where the practices of yoga and meditation are explored as a vehicle toward replenishing ourselves so we have more to give to our loved ones and society.

Self care is not only important but essential in this modern life.  Reclaim all those fragmented aspects of yourself by giving yourself this precious 3 days away from the world and on retreat. Don't worry, the world will be there when you get home, but you may find you have a different relationship to it!

About the Resort:

Here's What Others Are Saying:

"The retreat was an oasis of complete rest and rejuvenation.  No cooking, no cleaning up after kids and a group of warm hearted people to share it all with.  Vanessa set the pace perfectly, allowing time to unwind and relax before strengthening our minds & bodies with a steady flow of yoga, meditation, inspiring talks and fun activities over three days.

  • When should I arrive?

    Aim to Arrive at Kondalilla Eco Resort  at 9.30am. We commence with a yoga class at 10am in the Picnic Creek Centre (Function Room) on the Friday morning. 

    Your rooms may not be ready for you so it's best to leave your bags in the car and take them to your room at lunch or when your room is ready.

    Our retreat is held in the Picnic Creek Function Room. There is a map and signs when you arrive for your information.

    Do I have to do everything?

    Absolutely NOT. Everyone is welcomed to yoga, just as they are. This often means that you may be carrying niggling injuries, varying levels of fitness, flexibility and strength. The best thing you can do is to honour yourself, exactly where you are on any given day. Pushing beyond your limits is not generally recommended in yoga. However, there are times when the only way to grow and move forward is to give something a go. You need to become your best judge as to when the time is right. There is plenty of time for nature walks & time off but if you need more you are welcome to take it.  The retreat is yours!

    Refunds & Cancellations - 

    Your $100 deposit is refundable if you cancel with four or more weeks notice before your retreat starts. You can choose to transfer your deposit to another course. There are no refunds or transfers with less than 4 weeks notice unless covid related.

    Since the remainder payment (after the $100 deposit) is made within the 4 weeks prior to the retreat, there are no refunds. (again unless void related).

    And more retreat appreciation:

    "Thanks so much for holding space at the yoga retreat. After spending 3 days being led into deep peaceful relaxation, I realised I don't think I had been completely relaxed in a really long time. Being given the ability to drop into this space at any time is so valuable, and I have used it everyday at work, while driving, and of course in my yoga practice. A truly beautiful retreat with so many precious take always. Thanks again"

    "I wanted to say a huge thank you for a wonderful weekend. I actually didn’t know what restorative yoga was when I signed up for the weekend, and had no idea what to expect. I think however the universe brings you things when you need them, and I have come away with a whole new look on my life. Plus a lightness across my shoulders that I haven’t felt in years. So thank you for running such a fabulous retreat."
