Retreats
Immersive sound healing and women’s wellness retreats designed to restore your energy, reconnect you to your intuition, and nourish your mind, body, and spirit.
Gwen Alyssa Gaydos creates transformational, curated retreats offered annually that provide a gentle yet powerful reset from the fast pace of life. Each experience is intentionally designed to help you return to yourself — to your breath, your joy, your clarity, and the deeper wisdom within you.
Blending her East-meets-West background as a pharmacist and holistic wellness expert with her signature sound healing, Reiki, meditation, yoga, and mindfulness practices, Gwen guides you through experiences that soften the nervous system, calm the mind, and open the heart to deeper alignment.
These spiritual retreats for women are hosted in carefully chosen locations throughout California, Mexico, and select international destinations. Each retreat is limited in size, invitation-based, and offered once or twice per year, creating an intimate and deeply restorative container for healing, reflection, and renewal.
These retreats are more than a getaway.
They are a journey into presence, clarity, and inner freedom.
What to expect
Gwen’s retreats are designed to feel nurturing, grounding, and expansive — a sacred pause from everyday life. Each retreat includes a thoughtfully curated blend of:
• daily sound healing + meditation
• rejuvenating yoga practices (accessible for all levels)
• guided breathwork and mindfulness rituals
• holistic wellness teachings
• clarity work and intuitive reflection
• intention setting and sacred circle time
• nature-based activities + guided relaxation
• nourishing meals (location-dependent)
• spacious time for restoration and integration
Yoga is an integral part of each retreat. Whether led by Gwen or one of her trusted teachers, these practices support nervous system regulation, enhance clarity, increase embodiment, and help participants ground more deeply into themselves.
