Return to Softness Retreat

A moon-guided, astrology-infused retreat in Bali

This deeply nourishing 7-day retreat in magical Bali is designed to help you slow down, tune into the wisdom of the moon and return to your soft, feminine essence. Together, we’ll explore what it truly means to rest, not just physically, but emotionally, spiritually, and energetically.

We enter a special and rare portal just a few days before the retreat begins: Eclipse season with Virgo and Piscean themes. During this time we can allow ourselves to soften and align with our highest selves. Eclipse season invites us to let go, release and just receive guidance. This is a perfect time for a retreat to fully charge and gain clarity. Are you ready to transform completely between this interesting full and new moon eclipse?

Held in sacred stillness and surrounded by lush nature, you’ll find a space where there’s nothing to prove, nowhere to rush, and everything to feel. Each day, you’ll connect to the energy of the moon through meditation, slow embodied movement, workshops and astrology sessions.

This is an invitation to step out of your mind and into your body. To soften into who you truly are beneath all the layers of pushing and performing. To rest without guilt and to feel deeply connected, sensual, and inspired.

Josie: astrologer, meditation teacher, writer, and retreat host — creates healing spaces where emotion meets embodiment, where spirituality is lived, not just learned. With a love for moon magic, mindfulness and deep beauty, Josie’s mission is to bring softness into the spiritual path, one gentle moment at a time.

This retreat invites you on a soft and sacred journey inward — with daily meditation, grounding rituals, slow movement, nourishing food, simple mornings, sacred sisterhood, time in nature, and intuitive workshops.

Sessions

Some of Josie’s sessions

josie Boog

Deeper listening workshop

In this heart-opening workshop we will explore the art of truly listening—to ourselves, to each other, and to the subtle signs of life around us. When we slow down and become present, we begin to hear the guidance of our intuition, the wisdom of our emotions, and the unspoken stories behind someone’s words. Through gentle practices, and mindful sharing, you’ll be invited to soften your defences and tune in with deeper empathy and presence. This is a space where silence becomes sacred, and connection becomes medicine.

Tuning into the body workshop

Our bodies are always speaking through sensation, emotion and energy. In this soft and sensual workshop, we’ll drop out of the mind and into the body to ask one simple question: what do you need right now? You’ll be guided through gentle movement, breath, meditation and intuitive touch to awaken your body’s inner wisdom. This is a practice of presence, of reclaiming your physical space as sacred, and of remembering that your body is not just a vessel, but a guide. A space to reconnect, recalibrate, and return home to yourself. We’ll use scent, taste, beauty and movement to deeply re-connect.

What our guests truly experienced

  • A week I’ll never forget!

    I had such an incredible week, at a stunning location, surrounded by the sweetest, most beautiful women. I truly wish this experience for every woman. It’s so special how, in such a short time, strangers can become true ‘sisters’. We went deep, laughed, cried, and fully enjoyed with and through each other. It felt like a bubble, a place where the outside world simply didn’t exist for a while. I have never felt so calm, feminine, and powerful. Out of my head, completely in my body. I also learned so much about myself. I will truly never forget this week. I want to thank Maartje for the amazing organization, Josie for her beautiful energy and powerful sessions, and Maureen for the wonderful massages, her beautiful voice, and the soothing sound baths.

  • Perfectly organized down to the smallest detail

    I’ve travelled all over the world, but this Bali retreat was truly magical. A fantastic experience, perfectly organized down to the smallest detail, and I enjoyed every second. I feel completely zen and so uplifted. Thank you for this opportunity to be in our feminine energy and shine bright together.

    Medina | 31 years old
  • A beautiful, soul-nourishing experience

    The Goddess Rising retreat was absolutely beautiful. It was a truly special week filled with deep relaxation, wonderful sessions, delicious food, stunning nature, and sisterhood. Maartje organized everything perfectly. The sessions with Josie and Maureen were incredibly nurturing and powerful. You could really feel how much love and intention had been poured into this retreat. I’m so grateful I got to be a part of it and returned home feeling deeply inspired and renewed.

    Nina | 25 years old
  • A Transformative Experience in Bali

    I joined the back to your essence retreat on Bali. Everything was incredibly well arranged by Maartje from locations of accommodation, activities and transport. Even pre-orders of dinners and the spa were arranged, so wonderful! Also I am eating gluten-free and mostly vegan and everything was possible and for me that was super great! All the woman at the retreat were so sweet, everyone so unique and still felt all connected to each other. The astrology sessions were nice, Josie printed all charts, journal prompts and extra’s for us so we could see it all clearly, write on it and for me that felt like a great extra. I did love the archetype special a lot, to dive deeper into your chart and learn about yourself, where you can develop, in which signs/ houses. It felt so loving, connecting and heart opening. This week felt like a month and for me, when things felt like that, then I know I learned a lot again.

  • A Transformative Week of Connection, Insight, and Empowerment

    This retreat week was a truly special and enriching experience where I had the opportunity to meet beautiful, powerful women. The program was aligned with the phases of the moon, which allowed for an even deeper connection with myself and my inner strength. The workshops were thoughtfully designed, creating a safe and warm environment where I felt free to express my emotions and share openly. Through this experience, I gained valuable insights into my inner child, my true essence, and the direction of my future. A week that touched me on every level.

  • A Wonderfully Organized Retreat with an Amazing Team!

    Maartje from Conscious Travel Club did an amazing job for the Back To Your Essence Retreat that she hosted with Josie. All locations, rooms, activities, transport was very well arranged, it was super relaxed for us all. Maartje is very good in her work and I can recommend her to anyone. Also they made a great team and thought about everything.

  • The Perfect Retreat for Self-Discovery and High Vibes

    The retreat was perfect. Alongside finding yourself and your life’s purpose, you have the opportunity to explore Bali. You’re surrounded by a group of women who are all equally high vibrational, which makes the retreat complete.

  • Seamless and Beautifully Arranged

    I had such a beautiful experience at this retreat. Everything was thoughtfully organized and perfectly arranged! We were given plenty of information beforehand through an app, which made the whole experience feel smooth and effortless. From start to finish, it all flowed together so naturally. Thank you so much for creating this wonderful, unforgettable experience!

  • A Magical Experience

    I have never felt such a deep connection so quickly with people (women) I had never met before. It was truly a magical experience.

    Hilja | 42 years old
  • The Perfect Balance of Inner Work and Joy

    The retreat gave me exactly what I was looking for: a return to my essence. After a difficult period in my life, I was ready for a break from daily life. All the wonderful sessions led by Josie, Maartje, and Paige helped me to better understand myself and find more softness within. I also loved experiencing this with a group of like-minded women. Additionally, we were incredibly well taken care of, and everything was meticulously organized across two beautiful locations. What I found to be a significant advantage was that the retreat combined inner work with enjoyable activities, making it feel like a delightful vacation as well. It’s a journey I will never forget.

    Rosa | 30 years old
  • One of the Most Magical Experiences of My Life

    I just knew I had to be here, and my intuition was right! I am beyond grateful for this experience. 🙂

    Milou | 23 years old
  • What a gift to myself.

    The connection with the women, the beautiful sessions, the complete care and support from Maartje, the evening in the desert, the Moroccan atmosphere and food, and above all, a week of deep transformation. It felt like we had been away for three weeks instead of just one. So grateful!

    Floor | 31 years old
  • It truly felt like a gift and an investment in myself

    I had an incredibly special experience during the retreat in Bali, thanks to Maartje from Conscious Travel Club. Everything was perfectly organized, and it truly felt like a gift and an investment in myself. Definitely highly recommended and something I would do again!

  • A perfect balance of relaxation and connection

    It was a great mix between relaxing me-time and nice activities/sessions. I loved the group and the whole energy of the retreat. Everything felt so genuine and uplifting. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to recharge and connect on a deeper level.
