A held arc, not a single event.

4-6 weeks before the programme begins

Once your place is confirmed, you enter a structured preparation phase. You complete confidential screening, digital consent, and a detailed 1:1 assessment with Cheryl.  You also begin the preparation modules: understanding the medicine, nervous-system regulation, intention-setting, and what to expect.

• Clinical screening and psychological assessment
• Digital consent and safety documentation
• Preparation modules and reflective prompts
• Group welcome call with the clinical team

The retreat week

A small group of women, held in a quiet setting in Portugal. The retreat is built around safety, pacing, and enough structure for the body to stand down.    Days include preparation sessions, the medicine experience, integration circles, rest, movement, and shared meals.

• Six days, five nights in Portugal
• Small group - usually no more than fourteen
• Two facilitated ceremonial  sessions
• Daily integration, rest and movement

90 days after

The work continues when you return home. Over the following 90 days you receive daily reflection prompts, guided integration modules, monthly group Zoom calls, and optional 1:1 support. The goal is not to hold the peak experience --- it is to let it become part of how you live.

• 30 daily reflection prompts
• Monthly integration Zoom calls
• Nutrition, movement and sleep guidance
• Optional nutritional therapy session to discuss hormonal support (extra fee)
• Optional 1:1 integration sessions (extra fee)
