NECTAR OF LIFE is an invitation for women who feel called to deepen their connection with themselves, the Earth, and the sacredness of being alive.

Whether you are longing for deeper embodiment, meaningful sisterhood, a connection to ancestral wisdom, or simply space to slow down and savour life more fully, you are welcome.

You don’t need to be at a particular place in your journey. Come with your curiosity, an open heart, and a willingness to explore, feel, and receive.

Your retreat experience includes:

• 8 days and 7 nights at Secret Garden, Lake Atitlán, Guatemala.

• Daily nourishing brunch and dinner.

• A lovingly curated journey of ceremonies, rituals, somatic practices, embodiment, movement, and ancestral wisdom, guided by Manouk & Britta.

• All materials for ceremonies and workshops.

• Excursions and experiences connecting us with the sacred lands and local traditions.

• Transportation around Lake Atitlán during the retreat.

• Spacious moments for rest, integration, and connection.

Flights, airport transfers to and from Lake Atitlán, and personal travel and health insurance are not included.

Not at all. Whether this is your first retreat or you have been walking a path of embodiment, ceremony, and inner exploration for years, you are warmly welcome. All practices will be guided with care, and you are always invited to honour your own pace, boundaries, and needs. There is no particular way you need to show up or experience this journey.

We deeply value creating a space where every woman feels welcomed, respected, and supported in her unique needs. Our approach is rooted in care, nervous system awareness, and honouring individual boundaries. Every practice is an invitation, and you are always welcome to adapt, rest, or step away whenever needed. If you have specific physical, emotional, or dietary needs, please reach out before booking so we can explore together whether the retreat is a supportive fit for you. Please keep in mind that our retreat is held in a natural environment, with uneven terrain and stairs.

Absolutely. Spaciousness is an essential part of our journey.

Alongside our ceremonies, workshops, and shared experiences, there will be moments to simply be. To rest in the gardens, connect with the women around you, journal, admire the volcanoes, or soak in the beauty of Lake Atitlán. We believe that some of the deepest moments of remembrance happen in the quiet spaces between.

Of course! Most women join our retreats on their own, and this is often one of the most beautiful parts of the experience. From the moment we gather, we begin weaving the threads of sisterhood, creating space for authentic connection, shared experiences, and meaningful friendships. You are so welcome to arrive exactly as you are, whether you know someone already or are stepping into the unknown.
