A sacred pause in the mountains.
A space to rest, reconnect, and love yourself more.
Join Gaby and Danielle for a nourishing four-day women’s retreat held on 44 private mountain acres in the beautiful Santa Cruz Mountains of California.
Surrounded by trees, open space, and the quiet energy of nature, this retreat is an invitation to step away from the noise of everyday life and reconnect with the woman beneath the responsibilities, expectations, and constant doing.
This experience is centered around self-love, not as something you need to earn or achieve, but as something you are invited to remember.
Throughout the retreat, you will be gently guided through experiences designed to support rest, reflection, healing, and meaningful connection.
Your retreat experience will include:
Self-love workshops and guided group experiences
Time in nature to rest and reconnect with yourself
Sound baths and meditation
Gentle yoga and mindful movement
Reiki and energy healing experiences
Sacred women’s circles
Nourishing meals throughout the retreat- all meals included
Spacious time for rest, journaling, and integration
Optional massage add-ons
Every activity is an invitation. You will never be pressured to share, participate, or move beyond what feels safe and supportive for you.

This retreat is lovingly guided by Gaby Milan and Danielle — two master healers, teachers, and retreat facilitators who have dedicated their lives to helping others reconnect with their truth, light, and purpose.
Together, Gaby and Danielle have led hundreds of souls through transformational retreats and healing journeys across the U.S. and beyond — from the Oregon Coast and Mount Shasta to Hawaii and Utah.
Their unique blend of cosmic energy work, grounded wisdom, and heart-centered facilitation creates the perfect balance between sacred ceremony and joyful human connection.
When you step into their retreats, you’ll instantly feel it — the safety, love, and authenticity that make everyone feel seen, supported, and celebrated.
They hold space with grace, laughter, and deep devotion to each soul’s healing journey.
“We believe healing doesn’t have to be heavy — it can be beautiful, light-filled, and full of laughter.
Our mission is to help you return home to yourself.” — Gaby & Danielle

Santa Cruz Mountains, California
Give yourself four days to step away from the world and come home to yourself.
You are worthy of rest.
You are worthy of receiving.
You are worthy of the love you so freely give to everyone else.
Gaby and Danielle are the co-founders of SOLE Institute and have guided women through transformational retreats, healing experiences, workshops, and sacred spaces for many years.
Their approach is warm, grounded, trauma-informed, and centered around consent, emotional safety, authenticity, and genuine human connection.
They believe healing does not need to be forced. Sometimes the deepest transformation happens when we finally feel safe enough to soften, receive, and be fully ourselves.

Our retreats are for everyone! It doesn’t matter what your gender, race, weight, height, flexibility, or where you are at on your spiritual journey – Connecting to your higher self, nature, and the divine light is for every single being. New to all of this? We all have to start somewhere and retreats are the perfect space to start and/or grow your practice and heal. Don’t worry about how advanced others may be and remember this journey is yours, take all the time and be patient with yourself. If this is all new for you, congratulations, you are taking the first step.
Some retreats are family-friendly and great for the entire family.
Yes!! With us, you’re never alone! Before you go, we are here to guide you and get you prepared as much as possible for this retreat and travel experience.
We set up a group chat to communicate with one week prior to the retreat to check-in and update each other as you start your travel from where ever you may be. We’ll pair you up with a roommate, who will most likely end up being a lifelong friend. You may come alone, but you’ll end up leaving with a community of like-minded people who will forever be connected through this experience.
Before your retreat, we’ll send you a guide on what to pack and bring.
Yes! If you choose to take advantage of payment plans, once you’ve paid the deposit amount, the remainder of your balance can be split and paid bi-weekly or monthly until 30 days before the retreat start date. For example, if the total retreat is $2,150 USD and you’ve paid your deposit of $500 USD, the remainder of the balance ($1,650 USD) can be split bi-weekly or monthly until the final payment due date. If you have 4 months left until the final payment is due this would mean a bi-weekly payment of $206.50 USD or a monthly payment of $412.50 USD. All payments are non-refundable. If you would like this option, once you’ve paid your deposit please email us at [email protected] to set up a payment plan for you. We recommend booking early so that your monthly payment amount is low.
To secure your accommodation, we are required to make non-refundable deposits to the venues in advance therefore we need to collect deposits in advance to make these payments on your behalf and arrange all of the retreat inclusions.
This does differ from retreat to retreat. And also may vary on weather conditions. But we try to do daily yoga, a healing workshop, or a healing Ceremony every day. We ensure to schedule plenty of free time so you have the opportunity to explore the destination you’re in or simply rest, relax and do nothing.
