ESSENCE Retreat in Guatemala
An Immersion Into Your Feminine Power
The ESSENCE Retreat is a calling for the women who feel the pull to go deeper - into her body, into her feminine power and allow it to fully bloom.
It’s a remembrance, a coming home, a path inward to the creative feminine energy that lives in you, and the invitation to allow yourself to embody it fully.
Join us on November 15-21 2026, for a 7-day, 6-night immersion into the gorgeous volcanic mountains of Lake Atitlán in Guatemala.
EXPERIENCE SOMATIC HEALING
ESSENCE is a deep immersion into healing any fears, patterns and wounds that are no longer serving you.
As we slow down for a full week, we create space for you to come home to your body, and meet the pain and challenges that may be present.
You will be supported through group Somatic Guided Journeys and Energy Work to allow you to experience a profound and lasting healing.
We will be meeting daily in circles so there is space for each woman’s experience to be met.
EXPAND INTO YOUR ESSENCE
Each woman carries a unique energy, a frequency that is the blueprint of who she is and the gifts she brings into the world.
As we come home to our body, we connect more deeply with our own feminine energy, which is a powerful guide in our life.
To embody our essence fully is an initiation into our womanhood, owning and taking responsibility for the power that we hold.
During this retreat, you will be supported to embody fully your ESSENCE, your feminine energy.
ENJOYING THE DEPTH & BEAUTY OF GUATEMALA TRADITIONS
We have prepared beautiful local experiences during the Retreat.
A Traditional Cacao Ceremony with Ancestral Ruk’u’x Ulew Collective.
A gentle hike in the volcanic mountains with a beautiful viewpoint.
Enjoying a swim in Lake Atitlán, just a 5-minute walk from our Retreat Center.

MEET YOUR ESSENCE GUIDE Emilie Guimond-Bélanger
I’m a deeply intuitive guide. The strength of my work is to be able to work with the invisible, the felt senses, the emotions stored in the body - all that lives hidden in the dark, and yet longs to be seen.
When we work with these parts, they are brought to light, allowing healing in the deepest way possible - through your body.
While working with me, you are held by a woman who sees your power, who invites it to shine and to expand to its fullest potential.
There is a profound purpose to be found in embodying the feminine energy that lives in you, and I’m honored to support you on this journey.

"The ESSENCE Retreat was both rejuvenating and profound. A balanced mix of flow and structure. I loved our moments of free time exploring the surroundings, taking the time to integrate the different ceremonies and rituals, being nourished by good food and doing it all amongst a group of women. The ceremonies were intentional, with moments tailored to each woman.
ESSENCE is a retreat that is both individual and collective. Emilie knew how to follow the energy of the moment very well, responding to the needs that arose in service to the group. I recommend this retreat for any woman who follows her inner voice guiding her towards the sacred in herself."
