Ecotherapy is the name given to a wide range of treatment programs which aim to improve your mental health and physical well-being through doing outdoor activities in nature there are lots of positive health benefits and mental health benefits. It is about the relationship between people and the natural world it applies ecology and psychology mixed together. Ecotherapy is such a beautiful blend of more traditional therapy or wellness with Mother Nature, the forests, gardens, lakes, waterfalls, mountains, trails, nature offers us such a special healing space. As we go back to our roots and become more in touch with our mind, body and souls we connect to the holistic wellness path in such a beautiful way. The sessions will be 4 hours long and include so many fun and wonderful things from meditation, earthing, breath work, mindfulness, journaling, crafting, some grounding yoga poses, self care planning, tuning into our senses, and so much more while sharing a safe scared space with other participants. Taking the time to disconnect from the chaos of every day life and connecting within. Saying yes to self care, holistic wellness,time for just you isn’t always easy but it is such a special gift to honor yourself with. The practice of Ecotherapy aids in healing the mind,body and soul through several different modalities. It’s a holistic therapeutic practice unique to each individual who participates.

“Not all who wander are lost”

Wander in the woods and come out taller than the trees

Wander the paths less traveled and discover new magic

Wander to the beat of your own drum, your own magic

Just wander and see where it takes you

Why Raya’s Wellness Retreats Are Different

A sanctuary for the burnt-out, the tender-hearted, the overwhelmed, and those moving through profound seasons of change.

Raya’s Wellness Retreats are created for those who are exhausted by the pace of life, overstimulated by busy environments, and carrying the weight of trauma, grief, loss, or big life transitions. Many of the beautiful souls who join us are letting go of old versions of themselves and gently meeting the new — often for the first time in a long time.

In a world that moves too fast, demands too much, and rarely offers softness, our retreat spaces are intentionally designed to be the opposite:
soft, quiet, grounding, and deeply supportive for the mind, body, and spirit.

This is a space that honours every part of you — including the neurodivergent ways your brain and body may experience the world. There is no pressure to “do all the things.” No expectation to perform, keep up, or push past your limits. At retreat, you are invited to:

• slow down
• rest deeply
• listen to your body
• participate in the ways that feel right for you
• honour your energetic capacity
• meet yourself exactly where you’re at

We nourish you with soulful, wholesome meals and choose venues with great care — places that feel peaceful, quiet, comfortable, and supportive to your nervous system. Each location is chosen to help you exhale and soften: cozy fires, ocean waves, mountain air, river paths, and the healing presence of the four seasons.

Retreat is your permission slip to press pause on all the roles you hold in daily life.
To set down the weight you’ve been carrying.
To breathe again.

Here, you reconnect with what’s real: the warmth of morning sunlight, the sound of waves rolling onto the shore, the crispness of fresh mountain air, the grounding energy of the forest floor beneath your feet. You begin to feel again — to see, hear, touch, smell, and sense the medicine that nature has been waiting to offer you.

Our retreats are soft.
They are gentle.
They are deeply nurturing containers where you are witnessed, validated, and supported for exactly who you are — no masks, no performance, no pressure.

This is a space where transformation unfolds naturally.
Where rest becomes healing.
Where your soul can rise, remember, and return home to itself.

We would love to have you join us in 2026

Roots to wellness

Through my life journey I have explored many different types of healing modalities. Growing up on a beautiful farm in northern BC Canada with nature, horses, goats, cats, dogs and all the wild animals surrounding us I have always had a strong connection to the grounding and healing energies of this lifestyle. I have worked with animals all of my life and began coaching at a very young age. I have always had a natural gift for working with people and animals. The vision I have had for my work has been something that has been in progress for over 20 years. Through challenging times, pain, loss, life changes, adrenal fatigue, PTSD, anxiety, depression, and panic attacks I hit rock bottom and experienced what it was like to be in that place and then work my way back up from there. The healing journey has been a windy, sometimes lonely, humbling, painful, enlightening, and lifting one. What I found is that my connection to the place inside of me where I was most content and at ease as a little girl barefoot on the farm with her animals was just what I needed to help others find. I found my purpose, my passion and my life message while I did the work on myself and learned from others along the way.

I have explored hiking, mountain biking, trail running, kayaking, yoga, meditation, mindfulness, earthing, forest and nature therapy, art therapy, action therapy, reiki and other energy healing modalities through my journey to wellness. I realized after I graduated with my degree I wanted to offer something more than just the clinical office space for my clients, I wanted to offer a unique healing space through my own private work both in person and online.

Both animals and nature have many levels of healing energies to offer all of us. Grounding and earthing is a way to reconnect and realign your energetic self while allowing a space for the animal that most resonates with you to take part in your journey if you so choose. Just as we say each person comes into our lives for a reason, so do the animals that either become our pets or the wild ones who we cross paths with.

I am excited to offer a unique and fun way to heal and grow into your most authentic self through a journey of self discovery, experiences, and learning. Holistic health and wellness has become much of who I am today and its with excitement and great energy that I want to share with you the endless possibilities that await you on your path to wellness through alternative therapy and coaching!
