Something different happens when it's just us.
Guards drop faster. Laughter gets louder. Stories come out that have waited years for a safe campfire. Mel has guided hundreds of women through wild country — many arrived alone and nervous; most left with friends and a straighter spine.
No fitness prerequisites, no wellness jargon, no "shoulds". Just nature, breath, good food and enough silence to hear yourself again.
Slow on purpose.
Arrive & unwind
Welcome circle, a gentle walk into the landscape, breathwork as the light goes gold, dinner around the fire.
Breathe & adventure
Morning yoga, a wild swim or walk, a deep guided breath journey, unhurried lunch — and space to simply be.
Return different
Closing circle and intentions. You leave with tools you'll actually use — and numbers in your phone you'll actually call.
Exact venue, dates and inclusions are announced per retreat — every Wild Roots is shaped by its landscape.
Every retreat ends slower than it began. That's the point.
Everything that matters.
- All guided sessions — breathwork, yoga, walks
- Accommodation and all meals (dietaries welcome)
- Small group — spots are genuinely limited
- Deposit + payment plan available
- From $495 (sample price — Mel confirms per retreat)
Where this work has been.
