Nature Nurture Autumn Retreat

A Sanctuary for the Soul in Plettenberg Bay

📆 27–31 May 2026

Hosted by Sarah Bentz (Jivamukti Yoga) & Natalie Zeid (UNWIND/Trust Yoga)

🌿 Welcome to the Nature Nurture Retreat

Imagine waking to the sound of the ocean and birdsong, breathing in crisp coastal air, and stepping onto your mat as the day begins gently and intentionally.

Join us for five deeply nourishing days in the heart of Plettenberg Bay, where movement, breath, sound, and nature come together to support rest, renewal, and reconnection.

This retreat is an invitation to slow down, soften, and realign - where the wild beauty of the natural world mirrors the quiet intelligence within your own body.

Each day may include:

  Dynamic, breath-led movement rooted in philosophy, devotion, and conscious awareness.

• Breathwork & Somatic Practices with Natalie

  Practices to regulate the nervous system, release held tension, and reconnect with the body.

• Ritual & Reflection

Simple, meaningful practices to release, reset, and reconnect with intention.
