Rebalance & Renew:
A Peri/Menopause Retreat in Tuscany
July 3rd - 8th 2026
Step into a sanctuary designed especially for women navigating the transitions of peri-menopause, where nourishment, nervous system support, and gentle empowerment come together to transform overwhelm into clarity and vitality.
Hosted in the serene hills of Tuscany, this retreat blends holistic nervous system regulation with deep self-connection, nourishing movement, and mindful restoration in a supportive women-centred space.
What if menopause is your greatest transition? Rather than just being a safe space for sharing symptoms and effective relief, this retreat explores how to find the joy of embracing this change of life - marking the birth of a new self.
Enjoy daily movement, yoga, breathwork and workshops. Healthy, mouthwatering meals, individual kinesiology sessions and health goal setting. Exploring the local villages for authentic Italian cultural experiences, shopping, great coffee, natural hot springs.
Alongside restful mornings of gentle yoga and mindful movement, deep nourishment comes through delicious, nutrient-rich meals and holistic workshops that empower you with knowledge, self-care skills, and real-world strategies to move through peri-menopause with
confidence and ease.
Shared group sessions, reflective practices and leisure time under the Tuscan sun provide space to reset your inner rhythms, reconnect with what matters, and create meaningful bonds with other women on a similar journey.
This retreat is more than a break—it’s a transformational pause that helps you reclaim energy, strengthen your nervous system, and step back into your life feeling supported, informed, and inspired.

Natalie is the Co-Owner of the Retreat house and one of the founders of Shine Retreats.
She has 27 years of experience in the wellness industry. As both a kinesiologist and yoga teacher, she brings a wealth of knowledge to this MenoPower retreat. Co-facilitating with fellow kinesiologist Ella Carey they are excited to bring you their latest offering.
Natalie has personally experienced how debilitating perimenopause and menopause symptoms can be. That’s why she is co-creating this retreat to share the practices that worked to help ease, balance and restore her sense of self and wellbeing. Knowing we are so much more than a list of symptoms.
Women’s health is finally getting the attention and open conversation it deserves. Natalie passionately wants to bring women together to not only learn about and discuss perimenopause and beyond, but also experience a rest and reset to allow for integration of the experiences and techniques offered.
Natalie will be offering you a personalised kinesiology session and following that, provide any lifestyle recommendations / supportive measures to optimise your physical and emotional health. Working alongside Ella, they will present some of the workshops individually and co-host others.
She will be guiding you through a morning Yoga and breath work session each day. Expect slow flowing, restorative classes to balance body, mind and heart, interlaced with intentional themes, sound healing and energetics.
Ella Carey is an experienced Nutritional therapist, Kinesiologist and Coach, with a special interest in the nervous system, and its impact on health.
With guidance from Ella Carey of Full Spectrum Health, you’ll explore how your nervous system shapes stress responses and hormonal balance, learning practical tools—including breathwork, heart-coherence and kinesiology-informed practices—to help calm the nervous system and support hormonal shifts with grace. Ella’s integrative approach draws from her extensive natural therapy background to help you meet your body’s needs at a cellular and lived experience level.
"I believe in BioHarmonization - NOT Biohacking. Oestrogen is sensitive to stress! Taking an inventory of our lives and understanding where the stress is coming from and where we can support ourselves more, is such an empowering process. A womans hormones ebb and flow, and understanding their cycles is the key to living in harmony with ourselves - even beyond our physical cycle."
