8 Day Wellness & Adventure: Higher Self Women's Retreat, Sri Lanka

The Higher Self Women's Retreat in Mirissa is an 8-day, 7-night journey that mixes physical activity, healing practices, and local culture. Mornings often start with yoga or Pilates on the deck, followed by a healthy breakfast. Days are filled with a structured program that includes surf lessons in nearby Weligama, a hike to a secret beach, a guided ice bath, and a trip to Coconut Tree Hill for a drone photo shoot.

What sets this retreat apart is its range of experiences. It's not just about wellness classes; it's about adventure and immersion. You'll take a tuk-tuk to a beach party with a DJ, learn about batik making, enjoy a 1-hour Ayurvedic massage, and join a women's circle. There's even a private concert serenading you at the villa by a singer from 'The Voice' Sri Lanka, plus a cacao ceremony and breathwork sessions.

The group size is small, typically around 8-12 women, which creates a close-knit, supportive environment. The host, Becky, is hands-on and shares her own journey with stress and healing, making the experience feel personal and authentic. Reviews highlight the safe, nurturing space and the lasting impact on participants' emotional wellbeing.

The villa itself, The Nine Mirissa, is a standout feature. With its 9 stories and panoramic views of Mirissa Harbour, it offers a combination of boutique comfort and bohemian style. Guests stay in shared or private rooms, all with en-suite bathrooms and modern amenities like air conditioning. The property has a pool, garden, yoga deck, and kitchen, providing plenty of space for both relaxation and connection.
