Winter Retreat: The Stillness Sanctuary


“Within you there is a stillness and a sanctuary to which you can retreat at anytime and be yourself”

Hermann Hesse

Embrace spacious days, soft practices, and the luxury of doing less.

Escape the rush. Return to yourself.

If you’ve been longing to step away from the busyness of everyday life, our 2026 Winter Retreat — The Stillness Sanctuary — offers the perfect pause.

Over four serene days with Kate and Vee, you’ll experience a gentle, luxurious reset designed to reconnect you with your calmest, clearest self. This retreat isn’t about doing more — it’s about creating space for you to slow down, breathe deeply, and feel truly nourished.

Your Home for the Retreat

Set on the stunning Wybalena Farm in the Byron Bay hinterland, the retreat unfolds amidst quiet rolling hills, crisp winter air, and peaceful natural beauty. It’s the ideal backdrop for clearing the mind and softening the body.

What Your Days Will Look Like

Your schedule is intentionally spacious — a soothing balance of guided practices and restorative free time. You’ll enjoy:

  • Gentle yoga to soften tension and reawaken the body

  • Calming meditation to steady the mind and deepen inner peace

  • A therapeutic massage to support healing and relaxation

  • Wholesome, warming vegetarian meals prepared by Tash and Tom of Burbury Wholefoods

  • Optional guided walks through nearby trails and rolling hills

Between practices, you’ll have the freedom to move slowly and savour the simple pleasures you rarely have time for — reading by the fire, journaling, painting, or simply lying in the sunshine doing nothing at all.

Nourish Your Whole Self

Wellness facilities — including an infrared sauna, swimming pool, and ice bath — invite you to reconnect with yourself through rest, reflection, and mindful replenishment.

As daylight fades, cosy evenings by the fireplace offer the perfect way to wind down, wrapped in warmth and quiet conversation or solitude.

A Retreat for Your Whole Being

Every moment of The Stillness Sanctuary is designed to help you surrender into rest, tune into your inner rhythm, and return home feeling renewed, grounded, and deeply cared for.

2024 WINTER RETREAT REVIEW

‘Inna Bliss’ Winter Yoga Retreat at 'Wybalena' NSW 

The naturally tranquillising birdsong and the magnificent chef-prepared meals and the candlelit yoga studio will recede into our pasts. But the magical residue will line our cups, so that when we become depleted again — which we will — we can draw from this place, this space, the blissful, restorative memories of a time when we received.  ~ Emma
