You wake up surrounded by the lush jungle of Ubud, Bali. Mornings begin with soul-awakening breathwork and heart-opening self-love yoga led by Jess, setting the tone for a powerful new year.

Evenings are slow and soothing: sunset yoga, sound healing, and nourishing veggie/plant-based meals prepared with love. Close the night with heartfelt sharing, deepening the sense of sisterhood as you step into 2026 with clarity, strength, and magnetically attracting your dream year!

When I started to love and respect my true self my entire life transformed. I magnetically attracted love and positivity into my life! I started prioritising my own healing and personal growth, my social circle shifted and I found new wholesome connections. I quit working for someone else and started investing in my own life and valuable time. I soon became the person I had always dreamt of being. A strong and positive woman, living unapologetically as her true self!
Now I'm here to help you on your journey to self-love with Becoming Retreats, a transformative experience that will finally put you in the driving seat of your own life.

"it was honestly one of the best weeks of my life"
It was honestly one of the best weeks of my life. I’ve met some truly amazing people & made some wonderful friends. Jess is an incredible yoga instructor - giving time and guidance to every single person. The retreat is also suitable for people of all levels. I’ve come away with so many tools to help improve my sense of self-worth, self-love and acceptance. It’s a safe space to share feelings openly and the environment is super supportive. I will remember this experience for the rest of my life."

“It's brought my sparkle back and showed me life again”
"As someone who can feel anxious, I have never felt a more homely, warm, welcoming and comfortable environment - like one massive open armed hug! I feel like I've known the girls for years and have not laughed so hard in so long. The three sisters room sure provided all the late night giggles like the brief said!
I can't explain how much I loved every single second of the retreat, It's brought my sparkle back and showed me life again."

"My heart is so full"
"As soon as I met the other girls joining the retreat I felt completely at ease, everyone was so lovely and friendly. There was no pressure to share / do any of the activities if you didn't feel comfortable. Jess and the team did an amazing job at creating a safe space which really helped with any anxiety I had. There was plenty of time to relax, journal and take space which was great! My heart is so full after the best week!”
