Breathe & Nourish Day Retreats
Small-group day retreats to help you slow down, reconnect and leave feeling more like yourself.
There are times when a few hours away is nice.
And then there are times when you need a proper day to step out of everything you are carrying.
Breathe & Nourish is a series of small-group day retreats at Nurture Creek in the Dandenong Ranges, each built around a different theme and designed to support you through real life.
No huge crowds. No pressure to perform. No expectation that you arrive calm, clear or with anything figured out.
Just a beautiful day with space to breathe, learn, eat well, connect and be looked after for a while.
Different days for different seasons of life
Every Breathe & Nourish day has its own focus.
Some may be about connection. Others might explore energy, rest, confidence, boundaries or whatever we are seeing women needing most at that time.
The theme changes. The intention stays the same.
To give you time away from the noise of everyday life, help you understand yourself a little better, and send you home with practical tools you can actually use.
Each day brings together some combination of breathwork, education, nature, nourishing food, conversation, reflection and the kind of connection that happens much more easily when nobody is rushing anywhere.
The Next Breathe & Nourish day

Breathe & Nourish: Connection
Connection to our changing bodies and other women who get it
At some point in midlife, a lot of women look around and realise they don't quite feel like themselves anymore.
Your sleep changes. Your energy shifts. Your patience isn't what it used to be. Your body starts doing things you don't understand, and suddenly you're Googling symptoms at midnight wondering what on earth is going on.
Breathe & Nourish: Connection is a day for women moving through perimenopause, menopause, postmenopause, or simply a stage of life that feels like everything is shifting at once.
One day with nothing to organise, nothing to prepare and no one else to look after.
Just come.
We'll help you understand more about what's happening in your body, how hormones and the nervous system can affect the way you feel, and what you can actually do to support yourself through it.
And you'll spend the day with other women going through their own version of the same thing.
Sometimes just hearing "me too" is a relief in itself.
Is this day for you?
You might be noticing changes in your sleep, mood, energy, body, confidence or capacity.
You might know you're in perimenopause or menopause, or you might have absolutely no idea where you sit.
Maybe you're tired of feeling like you should be coping better. Maybe you've spent so long looking after everyone else that you've lost touch with what you need. Or maybe you'd simply like to understand your body instead of constantly wondering why it seems to have changed the rules.
You don't need to know anything about menopause.
You don't need any breathwork experience.
And you definitely don't need to turn up ready to bare your soul to a room full of strangers.
This will be a small, relaxed group where you can join in at your own pace.
Why Connection?
Kate and Bek kept hearing the same thing from women.
They felt disconnected from their bodies.
Disconnected from themselves.
And often quite alone in what they were experiencing.
Midlife has a way of rearranging a lot at once. Kids grow up. Relationships change. Priorities move. Bodies change. Energy changes. The things that used to work don't always work anymore.
Yet somehow we're still expected to carry on as though nothing has happened.
This day is about giving you a chance to stop doing that for a little while.
To understand your body instead of being frustrated with it.
To notice what it needs instead of constantly pushing through.
And to spend some time with women who understand without needing a five-minute explanation first.
What the day will look like
There'll be real, useful education around hormones, menopause, the nervous system, sleep, energy, mood and the changes that can come with this stage of life. We'll explore practical things you can take home and use without needing to completely overhaul your life.
Bek will guide you through breathwork designed to help you slow down, settle your nervous system and reconnect with your body. No experience needed.
There'll be nourishing food, time outside at Nurture Creek, animals, conversation, questions, laughter and plenty of room to simply sit and enjoy being looked after for a change.
Nothing forced. No awkward sharing circles where you have to tell everyone your deepest secrets.
Just a small group of women spending a day learning, talking, breathing, eating and connecting.
What we'd love you to leave with
✅A clearer understanding of what's happening in your body.
✅ A few practical tools that genuinely fit into your life.
✅ More trust in what your body is telling you.
And, perhaps most importantly...
✅ The feeling that you aren't the only one navigating all of this.
