Transformational Women’s Retreats for Renewal & Clarity
Immersive, nature-based group retreat experiences
Life has a way of pulling you in many directions, leaving little room to breathe, reflect, or honor what you truly need. You may feel disconnected from your purpose, stretched thin by responsibilities, or longing for deeper meaning and connection.
These retreats offer a sanctuary—an intentional pause where you can reset your nervous system, reconnect with yourself, and receive the support of a nurturing community of women who understand the journey of change and healing. Through guided workshops, reflection, nature immersion, ceremony, and restorative practices, you’ll return home with renewed clarity, expanded confidence, and a sense of grounded direction.
This is for you if…
You’re navigating a transition, loss, or a desire for deeper meaning
You crave stillness, sisterhood, and honest self-discovery
You want to reconnect with your intuition and your personal power
You feel called to step into a new chapter but don’t know where to begin
This is NOT for you if…
You’re looking for a quick fix instead of true inner work
You’re not open to reflection, nature connection, or emotional exploration
You prefer highly clinical or traditional therapeutic settings

Immersive Guided Experiences
The Gemstone Series
Monthly 90-Minute Recorded Zoom Experiences | Beginning March 2026
The Gemstone Series is an ongoing, soul-centered journey designed to support reflection, growth, and empowered embodiment. Each month, we gather in a recorded 90-minute Zoom session to explore the meaning and wisdom of a single gemstone or crystal, using its symbolism as a mirror for the life phase we may be moving through.
Upcoming Workshops
RESTORE: Holistic Healing for Your Body, Mind & Spirit
Restore Technique: One-on-one Light Touch Therapy - Distance Sessions
Distance Restore Sessions
This light touch therapy has many benefits. It can work on a multitude of conditions such as autism, muscular dystrophy, illness, injury, burns, stroke, disabilities, ADD, OCD, depression, anxiety, pain, stress, trauma, special needs, broken bones, working through cancer treatments, and so much more.
Distance Restore Sessions support the body’s natural ability to heal and rebalance on physical, emotional, and energetic levels. Using gentle, non-invasive techniques, Restore works with the nervous system and the body’s internal communication pathways to release dysfunction, restore regulation, and promote overall well-being.
As a Certified Restore practitioner, Carla facilitates each session by attuning to the individual’s system and offering insights that may support clarity, balance, and forward movement. Sessions are personalized and address the whole person, allowing the body to make the corrections it needs in a safe and natural way.
Restore is a complementary wellness modality and does not replace medical care, but it may support and accelerate the body’s natural healing process without interfering with medical treatments or medications.
The health of every cell in the body depends on effective connectivity and communication. Restore supports this process by engaging the body’s biofields, neurological pathways, meridians, fascia, and connective tissue—systems that communicate information throughout the entire body. Because fascia reaches every cell, working with it through light touch allows for whole-body integration and balance.
During a Restore session, gentle touch stimulates sensory receptors in the skin, activating neural pathways that send information to the brain. The brain processes these signals using its internal body map and responds by making corrective adjustments where needed. This process can influence muscle function, movement, and overall regulation while supporting the release of stored tension and cellular memory.
Restore also engages the limbic system, the part of the brain associated with emotion and subconscious patterns. By helping interrupt old stress responses and emotional loops, Restore supports greater ease, clarity, and balance—physically and emotionally.
Clients often experience deep relaxation during a session, with ongoing benefits continuing for several days as the body integrates the work. Many report feeling lighter, calmer, more focused, and more at ease, with improved movement, reduced tension, and a renewed sense of vitality.
Distance sessions are just as effective as in-person work and can be received from the comfort of your own home.
What to Expect From a Distance Restore Session
During a Distance Restore Session, Carla serves as a catalyst for healing and insight. As a Certified Restore practitioner, she offers guidance related to your health and any other information that may support your overall well-being. Each session is tailored to the individual and addresses the whole person—physical, emotional, and energetic.
Sessions are conducted remotely. To prepare, simply wear loose, comfortable clothing and allow yourself to relax in a quiet space. Many clients experience deep relaxation and may even fall asleep during the session.
Following your session, the body continues to integrate and adjust for several days as changes settle in. Clients often report feeling lighter, more relaxed, and more at ease, with improved movement, reduced pain or tension, greater clarity, increased focus, and an overall sense of vitality and balance.

Testimonials
“I have been fortunate to have Carla as a Health and Wellness coach for a program I was in for a period of several years.
Carla is empathetic but gives good feedback to empower you to succeed.
I found her to be supportive, very knowledgeable and generous with her time.
Her ability to listen and put herself in my shoes was encouraging and she quickly earned my trust and respect.
Anyone who has the good fortune to have her mentor and coach them will come away with a new perspective on their goals, as well as insight to their needs emotionally which will benefit their physical wellbeing.”

“Carla has taught me so much about health, nutrition, fitness , and so much more. I have been exposed to various different opportunities because of her guidance, and I am filled with gratitude every day. Carla’s leadership has helped me attain a much healthier lifestyle, and has dedicated a significant portion of her life to helping others transform their lives as well. She is a great listener, and is able to offer wisdom and encouragement to empower others to develop and grow into their best selves.”
— Deb Bernstein
“I would say the influence of the Women's Light Retreat on me has been positive. I am following the seeds that have been planted for spiritual growth. They pop up in front of me such as the opportunity to be involved in Eckankar HU chanting, a form of meditation. Also, I wanted to continue Kundalina yoga that Laura introduced to finesse the chakras I found a program that I signed up for this week. Importantly too, as small things happen, sometimes I am able to read more direction in them to keep me on track of fundamental purpose. Thank you again Carla for what you offer!”
— Lenora Meyers-Nelson
“I have been working with Carla as my Health and Wellness mentor for two years now and I would recommend spending time with her. Of all the women I have met she is one of the most authentic and loving. I would feel refreshed after spending a day in her company and I can only imagine how remarkable a one-day workshop with her would be. Life gives us all so many challenges and Carla always has a way of taking the positive and pragmatic approach to the ups and downs and hair pin curves of existence. I am grateful she has decided to share her wisdom with us.”
