RETREAT
"I wish I could just hit pause slow time"
Do you find yourself too busy all the time?
Running as fast as you can to keep up with all of your responsibilities and commitments?
Do you feel frustrated, stressed, overwhelmed or tired?
​
Then good news, this retreat is for you!
RADIANT SOLITUDE
A Radiant escape to Victoria's mineral springs country to unwind, create space and indulge.
This Radiant long weekend away is one of those trips you aspire to experience.
​
Think stunning hotel and delicious food.
Yoga and meditation to ground and elevate.
Damn fine company.
Lots of time for yourself.
​
It's the ultimate just-for-you retreat with your Radiant community.
Hepburn Springs is approximately 90 mins from Port Melbourne and a stone's throw away from Daylesford and offers the perfect landscape for our Radiant Solitude escape.
​
With natural springs surrounding our stay, it'll be hard not to drop into a state of relaxation and let the city feels unravel away.
​
This retreat is all about having some quiet time. Whether you'd prefer your own room or to share with a friend (or new one!), the grounds will truly allow the space for you to rest and reset.
With daily meditation, yoga and other optional activities on site and in the area, these 4 days away will have you stepping out of a state of mundane and into a state of healing self-compassion.
​
Where are we staying? ​
​
Hepburn Springs is located 90ish minutes from Port Melbourne and in the heart-land of Victoria's northern thermal spring waters.
​
For our 4 days together, we'll be staying at the glorious Hotel Bellinzona.
A luxury 4-star hotel with all the bells and whistles one could wish for.
​
Along with our daily meals and our own private yoga studio on site, Hotel Bellinzona offers pool, sauna and spa facilities, making our stay extra special.
​
Walking distance from local massage and wellness experiences, Spring Creek and all the nature wanders around the historic bushland, this Hepburn Springs backdrop for our Radiant Solitude retreat is a pure delight.

With the intention of solitude and lots of free time in this retreat, during these moments of 'time off' we encourage you to use this time wisely – book a local massage, go for a swim, sauna and spa, read a book on the grounds, bring your crafts, have a nap, go for a walk, meditate in the bush. It's really up to you and of course we'll help with suggestions when the time comes!
