Every woman struggles with making time for herself, especially in a world that’s always on the go. It can feel like there’s never enough time to focus on your own needs, leaving you wondering, “How do I carve out time to recharge?” or “Can I really reconnect with myself while balancing everything else?” The good news is, you can bring clarity and peace to this chaos by attending one of my self care retreats, designed to help you rediscover your inner balance and sense of self.
When you’re unsure how to prioritize self care, it’s hard to make meaningful progress toward personal growth.
In this post, I’ll define self care retreats and provide three ways they can help you reconnect with yourself. By the end, you’ll have a roadmap to guide you toward a more centered and refreshed version of yourself.
Self care retreats are immersive experiences that offer a combination of relaxation, personal growth, and deep reconnection with yourself. These retreats are specifically designed to help you step away from your daily routine, refocus your mind, and recharge both mentally and physically.
In other words, a self care retreat provides the space and environment to prioritize your needs without distractions. This allows you to reconnect with your true self and return home feeling rejuvenated.
The added benefit is that you also get to bond with like minded women, fostering meaningful relationships in a beautiful, serene environment.
Component #1-Creating a Safe and Supportive Space
The first and most important component of any self care retreat is creating a safe and supportive space where you can fully unwind.
This is crucial because it’s impossible to truly relax if you feel pressured or uncomfortable. Many women attend retreats for the first time feeling unsure of what to expect, and without the right environment, they may never fully open up.
The key to enjoying your retreat is knowing that it’s a judgment free zone where you can focus on your needs. This allows you to dive into the experience, whether it’s meditating by the water or journaling in a quiet corner.
At my upcoming Maui Women’s Reconnection Retreat (October 23-27, 2024) and Hawaii Women’s Retreat (May 14-18, 2025), we’ve carefully curated the environment to be one of tranquility and renewal. Each retreat is held in stunning locations, perfect for rediscovering your inner peace.
Spots are limited, and we have only a few spaces left, so act fast if you’d like to join us. You can go here for all of the details.
Component #2-A Focus on Personal Growth and Reconnection
The second essential element is ensuring that the self care retreat focuses on both personal growth and reconnection.
While relaxation is important, it’s equally vital that you take the time to explore your emotions and mindset. Without this focus on personal growth, you might leave the retreat feeling rested, but without the deeper reconnection you were hoping for.
Through workshops, guided meditation sessions, and one on one reflection time, my retreats help you reconnect with yourself on a deeper level. We help you understand where you’ve been emotionally and how to move forward with renewed clarity.
For instance, at my Ohio Women’s Retreat (July 18-22, 2025), you’ll experience workshops designed to help you reconnect with your purpose while enjoying the beauty of nature in a peaceful lodge setting.
Component #3-Building Meaningful Connections
The third key ingredient to a fulfilling self care retreat is the opportunity to build meaningful connections with other attendees.
Having the chance to share experiences, insights, and emotions with a group of like minded women is invaluable. You might be surprised how empowering it is to connect with others who are on a similar journey, sharing the highs and lows of personal growth and self care.
We facilitate this by offering group activities, dinners, and free time where you can bond with other women. These connections often extend beyond the retreat, creating a lasting support system for your personal development.
At my Hawaii Couples Retreat (May 20-24, 2025), you’ll even have the opportunity to reconnect with your partner in an environment designed for both intimacy and personal growth.
There you have it – the three essential components of a perfect self care retreat.
While it may seem overwhelming to focus on so many different aspects of relaxation and personal growth, it’s all about creating a balance. When you prioritize both your emotional and physical needs, you’ll leave the retreat feeling refreshed, reconnected, and ready to take on the world.
If you’re ready to prioritize yourself and experience the perfect self care retreat, now’s the time to act. My upcoming retreats in Maui and Hawaii have only a few spots left and they’re filling up fast!

Born and raised in Washington State, I know the Pacific Northwest like the back of my hand. As a luxury boudoir photographer, my mission is simple: to reach as many women as I can and show them just how incredible they already are. This experience is about so much more than beautiful photos - it's a chance to see yourself through the eyes of those who love you, and to truly reconnect with the woman you are.
Since founding Boudoir Photography by Amber Carl in 2020, I've had the privilege of photographing countless women and couples, each experience as unique as the person in front of the lens. The greatest compliment I receive is how comfortable my clients feel with me. This is an intimate journey, and my goal is to create a safe, welcoming space where you can let your true self shine.
Take a look at my work and reach out - I'd love to help you experience the confidence and self love you deserve.
