Inner Temple

A Calling Home

June 11th - 14th 2026

Dunoon, Scotland

Join me in Scotland this June for our Summer Retreat

Imagine the scene… gathered in circle with kindred sisters, being lovingly held and supported by each other, surrounded by nature, a nourishing, seasonal meal lovingly prepared by our chef for you to enjoy after each workshop or ceremony, maybe finishing the day with songs around the fire, an evening sauna or hot tub under the stars…

Sound’s pretty incredible right?

Falling just before the Summer Solstice when the evenings are long and the earth is bursting with colour I warmly invite you HOME…

Home to your body, your aliveness, your sensuality, your playfulness and your joy.

A Calling Home is an invitation to remember who you are, beyond the labels and the dogma, the attachment styles, the shadow work, the trauma releases, beyond the endless “inner work”.

Most of the world wants to keep you in a cycle of analysing and fixing - constant excavation and tearing yourself apart to find the ugly parts.

Beloved sister, you are not broken. You never were. Wholeness lives within you already - edges, shadows, sweetness and all.

I ask you, what is healing didn’t have to be so heavy? How would it feel to heal through joy? If connection, pleasure and play were not seen as indulgences but a pathway home? Could you hold that frequency?

The last few years have been heavy for almost all of humanity. We have been in a period of deep collective grief and shedding, and now? Women across the world are remembering the power in their wombs, the fire in their hearts and the songs of their ancestors.

The solar feminine is what comes after the long nights of healing. After the grief has been honored, after the descent. She turns her face toward the light not because she is bypassing the dark, but because she has already met it.

A Calling Home is not another healing retreat. It’s the moment you stop circling and searching for what’s wrong and remember what is already alive.

If you are ready to feel the warmth of deep sisterhood medicine, juicy aliveness in your body and to radiate as the full spectrum Solar Womban you came here to be!

Come join the circle sister, you belong here.

Our Home For The Weekend…

Old Kilmun House is located in Kilmun, Dunoon, Scotland. A beautiful haven that has already held two incredible Inner Temple retreats. With possibilities of triple, double and single rooms there are options for different budgets and needs. The house boasts a stunning dining room and cosy living space along with a sauna and hot tub. However, the grounds are what keep us returning to Old Kilmun House - with access to 1.4 acres of garden space including a mini woodland, waterfall and burn we will be immersed in nature - and of course the main attraction being the welcoming and aptly named “Yoni Yurt” where we will gather for our circles, ceremonies and workshops.
