• Deep Reset: A Private 3-Day Nervous System Retreat with Anca Uni — 3 days
• 4 Day Women's Nature & Wellness Retreat in Haliburton, Canada — 4 days

Wellness holidays in Ontario, on this page, are about stepping out of the everyday and into the quiet of the province's lakes, rivers and forests. There are three programmes to choose from, running over three or four days, all set in nature-based locations across Ontario. Two are weekend retreats: a nervous system reset for women at Wild Grounded Retreats, a nature-based retreat centre on the Ottawa River near Westmeath, about 90 minutes west of Ottawa; and the Forest Wellness Weekends at BlackHouse, where days begin slowly with yoga or meditation rather than an early bootcamp, and afternoons leave room for the salt water pool and cedar facilities. The third is a four-day women's nature and wellness retreat in Haliburton, set across 30 acres of pristine wilderness around three hours from Toronto, where daily yoga and meditation sit alongside foraging walks and the chance to swim or canoe on a private lake. These suit you if you are running on empty and want a gentle, unhurried few days to reset, with movement, time outdoors and space to breathe. Two of the three are designed specifically for women. Guided forest walks, nature-based mindfulness and slow mornings are common threads, so you can expect a calm pace throughout. The Haliburton retreat is priced from 1190 CAD, giving you a sense of what a four-day programme on this page involves.
