Nourish & Play: The Grown-Up Playdate You Didn’t Know You Needed

Nourish & Play: The Grown-Up Playdate You Didn’t Know You Needed.

A weekend of creativity, cooking, and connection — because joy is the best kind of self-care

 Location: Temple Retreat, Pullenvale, QLD
 Dates: Friday 13th March to Sunday 15th March 2026
 Options: Full 2-Night Retreat OR Day-Only Experience (Saturday, March 14th)

It’s easy to get caught up in the doing — the giving, the organising, the showing up for everyone else. But what if, just for one weekend, you gave yourself permission to slow down, play, and be completely taken care of?

Nourish & Play is a women’s weekend retreat designed to help you refill your cup through creativity, movement, and meaningful connection. Think gentle restorative yoga and tai chi under gentle sunlight, laughter around a pit fire, hands deep in clay, immersing yourself in a cooking class, and stillness beneath a century-old fig tree.

This retreat isn’t about perfection — it’s about presence. You’ll be guided by a team of compassionate facilitators through mindful movement, art therapy, meditation, and culinary play. Between sessions, you’ll have space to rest, chat, and simply be.

As the weekend unfolds, you’ll rediscover what it feels like to move with ease, to create without judgment, and to connect from the heart. You’ll leave not only refreshed, but re-energised — with a lighter body, a fuller heart, and a reminder that joy is deeply nourishing.

💫 This retreat is for you if you’re ready to...

• Reconnect with your playful, creative self

• Nurture your body through gentle yoga, tai chi - mindful movement

• Explore your emotions and self-expression through clay and art

• Enjoy nourishing food and learn new ways to cook with joy

• Share laughter, warmth, and authentic connection with like-minded women

Join us for a weekend that feels like a breath of fresh air — a grown-up playdate where you’ll be reminded that the most beautiful parts of you come alive when you stop rushing and start creating.

Leave the to-do list at home.
Bring your curiosity, your softness, and your sense of wonder.
We’ll take care of the rest.
