EMBODY THE LIGHT WOMEN’S RETREAT
16 – 23rd October 2027
Finca Argayall, La Gomera
Ignite your inner fire, embody your purpose, and become a force for positive change.
At a time when the earth is asking us to listen and change is needed, this intimate retreat invites a small group of no more than twelve women to pause, reconnect and explore what it means to live with greater clarity, purpose and intention. The yogic understanding of the Kleshas, the mental and emotional afflictions that cloud our clarity, will be interwoven with yoga, breathwork, and meditation, to create a space for deep reflection, connection and transformation. Gently exploring fear, attachment, and the shadow self with compassion; to dissolve what no longer serves you and create space for greater freedom to strengthen your connection to your own inner wisdom, purpose and vitality.
The intention is not to escape the world, but to return to it differently: grounded, clear and connected to your inner wisdom, with the courage to become a beacon of positive change.
“Ceri is an incredible teacher. She has a warm heart and exudes kindness; she led the group through a powerful emotional journey and adapted the practice to help guide everyone through their own process. I brought home with me an open heart and a clear head.“

The Venue
Finca Argayall is a retreat venue in the truest sense of the word. Cut away from the rest of the world, a tropical paradise where access is limited to one dirt track or the ocean itself. This oasis is completely unique and lives independently from the world where electricity is self generated, and food produced on their stunning and fertile permaculture gardens.
Finca Argayall lends itself to quiet contemplation and spiritual enquiry thanks to the dedication of the gentle community who live here and work together to keep the community and their home thriving. They love welcoming new guests, and always proud (rightly so) of the most delicious food that they mostly produce on the land themselves. You certainly won’t go hungry! If you’re looking for a peaceful week away with time to let your body rest and thoughts meander, returning to the world fully restored, then this retreat is for you!

The Itinerary
Each day begins and ends with time for your practice in the Finca’s dedicated Shala with yoga, meditation and breathwork twice daily. The morning practice involves a more dynamic yoga session designed to gently awaken the body, build energy and set you up for the day ahead. As the day begins to soften, we come together later in the afternoon for a slower, more meditative and restorative practice.
There will be space for contemplation, reflection and simply being present. The afternoons are yours with time to unwind and explore; take a dip in one of the pools or brave the ocean, soak up the sunshine, wander through the lush grounds or explore the local town. You can do as much or as little as you like. There is no pressure to fill your time, this is a retreat, after all. Time to rest, explore, read, sketch, sleep, swim or simply sit and enjoy where you are. Please note there will be one yoga free day during the retreat.

Testimonials
“Once again Ceri put everything, her heart and soul, into her yoga. She was absolutely wonderful and could have done no more for us. She manages different capabilities extremely well and of course has a fun side which is very endearing. Having had her as my yoga teacher for 4 years and been on several retreats with her I can honestly say she has gone from strength to strength …. She pushes herself very hard and never stops studying and researching her art and is generous when imparting her knowledge. The setting of the Finca was beautiful, the food was delicious, and Grace and her team were very accommodating.“
Penny
“I had such an incredible week on La Gomera. Wow. Had no idea it would be quite so transformative in every way. Ceri is fabulous. Such a lovely person and kind and informed teacher. I would thoroughly recommend her to anyone.“
Emma
“I thoroughly enjoyed Ceri’s warm and engaging teaching style. Over the course of the week Ceri carefully guided us through the postures, meditation and chakras and I felt fully informed and supported at all moments, owing to Ceri’s deep knowledge, understanding and generous sharing of the teachings. We also had lots of fun with plenty of belly-laugh moments!Finca Argayall in La Gomera is the perfect magical place to do a deep dive into what can be emotionally challenging work. I came home feeling nurtured, energised and empowered, and can ‘t wait to stay in touch and go back.“
