Retreat Co-Hosting with The Wellnest
You Have a Gift to Share. Let's Build the Container Around It.
Have you dreamed of hosting a retreat but felt overwhelmed by the logistics of making it happen?
Many practitioners — acupuncturists, yoga teachers, coaches, and healers — have incredible gifts to offer but aren't looking to manage venues, meals, schedules, registrations, and group dynamics on their own.
Through The Wellnest, Valina Swan offers retreat co-hosting partnerships across Alberta, British Columbia, and Mexico, designed to help you share your expertise within a fully supported, thoughtfully curated retreat experience.
You bring the craft. Together, we build something unforgettable.

CLIENT EXPERIENCE
STEP INTO THE RETREAT EXPERIENCE
If you're feeling the need to pause and reconnect with yourself, you don't have to go through this journey alone. Many women
who attend our women's wellness retreats describe leaving with deeper connection, renewed clarity, and meaningful friendships.
“I spent time with old friends and new friends and got to embrace a new part of me. I was in a beautiful rustic setting in the mountains surrounded by trees and warm magic. I was in the midst of laughter and tears and community. It was a beautiful, heart warming experience.’”
“Being. Being able to be myself, surrounded myself with good people. I am not alone. (I have always had a hard time connecting with other women, so this was a very positive experience.) 100000/10! Definitely signing up for the next one!”
I’ve had the pleasure of attending two retreats at the Woman’s WellNest Retreat, created and hosted by the beautiful Valina Swan. The accommodations are thoughtfully chosen. The first two retreats were held at the House of the Friesians — a stunning location nestled in the Columbia Valley. Future retreats will also be held at Castle Black Swan. Regardless of locale, the retreat itself is the heart of the experience, and the beautiful settings are simply the icing on the cake. Valina provides a safe, nurturing space for women to meet, share, learn about themselves, and heal. All the while, we are served delicious, lovingly prepared food, with every dietary need thoughtfully accommodated. Meals and snacks are plentiful, nourishing, and always enjoyed. Activities and sessions are laid out with intention, allowing the days to unfold with a natural, gentle rhythm. Participation is always voluntary, yet at each retreat I’ve attended, every woman has chosen to join in — because this is where the heart of the retreat truly awakens. We laughed, some of us cried, walls came down, and compassion ruled. The level of trust allows everyone to let their hair down, learn from each other, and share pieces of their lives. And of course… what happens at the cabin stays at the cabin. In addition to group sessions, there are activities you can enjoy on your own — art therapy, journaling, and even horse therapy. Valina also invites special guests. In the past, this has included acupressure sessions, a mobile sauna (which paired beautifully with the well-water outdoor hot tub), and a gorgeous live music performance by the talented Ruth Purves Smith. I’m not going to spill the beans on all the activities — we’d love for you to come and experience them for yourself. I’ve made lifelong connections and friendships at both retreats and am truly excited for the gatherings to come. Please watch Valina’s social media pages for upcoming retreats held in BC, Mexico, and quite possibly Alberta as well. You will be very glad you did.
