Medicine for the Soul Retreat
& Sacred Initiation
back home to yourself
3-8 May 2025
Hosted by Rebecca Traub
Lisbon, Portugal
Art Therapy & Somatic Healing
A 5 day experience devoted to:
your inner freedom and aliveness
radical expansion and expression
nervous system healing
spiritual wellness
intimacy with self, other and your higher power
reclamation of your divine feminine essence
becoming magnetic
sisterhood and play!
Since the beginning of time women have been gathering in circle to connect, heal and make magic...
Join me for an intimate and transformative 6 day/5 night retreat.
During our time together you will come face to face with what's blocking you from having the life you want.
Shed layers that no longer serve you so you can be who you came to this lifetime to be!
Be witnessed and held in your mess, your beauty, your depths, your truth and your rising..
You might even discover that your softness and vulnerability are your biggest source of power.
And that everything you want is on the other side of a healed nervous system.
Together we will master the art of energetic coherence. You will upgrade your soul's operating system from the inside out. Shift old patterns into new pathways. Reprogram your subconscious mind. And experience the true medicine of playing and healing in sisterhood.
It is not a path of trying to get somewhere, fix something, or figure something out. It is a journey of remembrance and restoration of your true nature.

"I have changed on a visceral level. This has been the single most profound five days of my life. I’ve done so many retreats…this is the best money I have ever spent on myself, hands down, without a doubt.”
- Nalini
Your Healing Oasis for the Week
Open your heart and return to your soul’s truth. Let's slow down so that we may remember who we are.
Are you walking around feeling numb, uninspired or reactive? Pretending like everything is okay but it's not?
I really get this spot.
And it doesn't have to be this way!
Read below for testimonials from women who have been on retreat with me:
“Rebecca feels like a modern medicine woman. Highly intuitive, warm and devoted to a more peaceful world which starts with our individual healing. She is truly a gifted practitioner of the healing arts, weaving modalities together to create very safe and very unique containers for healing that actually lasts. Her approach is unlike anything I’ve ever touched. A day in her presence will most likely change your life!”
-Autumn
To say "yes" to this experience is to prioritize matters of the heart. When we prioritize matters of the heart we open the floodgates to our own healing and the healing of the collective.
When we heal ourselves
-
we step outside of deeply rooted ancestral patterns
-
we interrupt generational cycles that no longer have their place within us
-
we heal 7 generations back and 7 generations forward
-
we heal our relationship to others
-
we heal and strengthen the collective heart beat

Can you elaborate on art as a healing modality?Creative expression of all kinds (visual art, dance/movement/body based expression, etc.) a vehicle for symbolic communication. Your art is a reflection of your inner world and your creative process becomes a portal into growth, healing and deeper understanding of Self.
