Gestalt

Plenty of free time to explore nature, shopping, & sightseeing alone or with group.
Croatia embodies the *Relax* mentality and there's a word for it: POLAKO, or POMALO
It means slow down, take it easy, be gentle and take your time....Be present in the moment:
Here and now.
We will practice this concept with daily mindfulness, meditations and awareness practices led by Adela. Strengthen your connection to Self, deepen your spiritual connection & revive your inner essence. Travel and a change of scenery often help us tap into a deeper meaning of Life.

Women’s retreat: Wild Grace.
Open Heart. Grounded Soul
November 5-8, 2026| Heartwood Retreat Center | Blue Ridge, GA
Wild Grace was inspired by a simple longing: to gather with women who are curious about themselves and the way they move through the world.
Women who are willing to ask deeper questions, sit with uncertainty, laugh easily, and make room for both joy and tenderness.
This is an invitation to spend a weekend remembering the parts of yourself that have been overshadowed by responsibility, expectation, and the pace of everyday life.
We'll spend our days in the Blue Ridge Mountains, where autumn has a way of reminding us that change doesn't have to be forced. We'll gather in circle, share stories, sit in silence when words aren't needed, create something with our hands, and end our evenings around the fire watching sparks disappear into the night sky.
You don't need to be "working on yourself." You don't need a life transition, a five-year plan, or the perfect words for what you're feeling. You only need a willingness to be present.
The name Wild Grace holds the heart of this retreat.
Wild is the part of us that is fully alive. Curious. Honest. Creative. The part that trusts what it knows before the world tells it what it should know. It isn't reckless. It's awake.
Grace is the wisdom to hold that aliveness with compassion, humility, and courage.
It's knowing that strength and softness don't compete with each other—they belong together.
Wild Grace is learning we don't have to choose between being deeply rooted and fully alive.
It's rooted in something I've believed for years: awareness begins with paying attention. To ourselves. To each other. To the natural world, which has always been one of our greatest teachers.
