5 Myths About Women’s Retreats (That We’re Dismantling)
•
Let’s clear something up:
A women’s retreat isn’t just a weekend of yoga and green juice (unless you want it to be).
It’s not a clique-y, woo-woo event.
It’s not just for “a certain type” of woman.
At Cozy Girls Getaways, we believe retreats should be soft, inclusive, and soul-filling.
But we know the word “retreat” can feel a little intimidating, especially if you’ve never been to one before.
So let’s talk about it.
Myth #1: “Retreats are only for women who already have a spiritual practice.”
Truth: You don’t need to meditate, journal, or know your moon sign to belong.
Our getaways are about rest, connection, and softness, not spiritual performance.
Come as you are, exactly as you are.
Myth #2: “If I go alone, I’ll feel awkward.”
Truth: Over half of our guest come solo – and leave with lifelong friends.
We create a space that’s welcoming, warm, and zero pressure. You can be quiet. You can be silly. You can be yourself.
Myth #3: “It’s just a girls’ trip with strangers.”
Truth: It’s a curated, intentional space. Not a party.
Yes, there’s laughter and fun. But there’s also depth. Slowness. Intimacy. You won’t feel like a guest, you’ll feel like you’ve come home.
Myth #4: “I’m not the type of woman who goes on retreats.”
Truth: If you’re tired…curious…craving rest…you’re the type.
There’s no checklist. You don’t have to be healed, happy, or high-vibe. You just have to be open.
Myth #5: “It’s a luxury I can’t justify.”
Truth: Self-care isn’t selfish. It’s survival.
The cost of always giving to others without receiving support or rest? That’s far more expensive than a weekend to restore your spirit.
There’s a place for you here.
Whether you come in fuzzy socks, yoga pants, or mascara-free tears, you’re welcome exactly as you are.
The real myth?
That you need a reason to take time for yourself.
