REST• RELEASE • RENEW

A Women’s Retreat at The Fensalden, Albion

October 21–23, 2025

As the season shifts and the days grow golden, we gather by the ocean’s edge to slow down, breathe deeply, and come home to ourselves.This soul-nourishing retreat invites you to rest deeply, release what no longer serves, and renew your spirit through the healing rhythms of yoga, sound, art, and nature. Beneath the dark new moon sky and the magic of the Orionids meteor shower, we will journey inward, held in community, beauty, and intention.

  Embrace Tranquility at The Fensalden Inn 

Perched atop the coastal cliffs of Albion, California, The Fensalden Inn is a historic sanctuary where the whispers of the ocean meet the majesty of ancient redwoods. This secluded haven, once a 19th-century stagecoach stop, now offers a harmonious blend of rustic charm and modern comfort, making it the perfect backdrop for our “Rest • Release • Renew” women’s retreat.

Accommodations Tailored for Connection and Solitude

Our retreat is intentionally limited to 10 women, ensuring a deeply personal and nurturing experience. The estate features a main house and three private cottages, each thoughtfully designed to foster relaxation and reflection.

  • Private Sanctuaries: For those seeking solitude, several single-occupancy rooms are available, each adorned with antique furnishings, cozy fireplaces, and private decks overlooking the Pacific.

  • Shared Spaces for Sisterhood: Double-occupancy rooms offer a shared experience without compromising comfort, ideal for friends or solo travelers open to new connections.

  • Charming Cottages: Groups can opt for our standalone cottages—such as the Albion House, Redwood House, or Tower House—each equipped with full kitchens, inviting living areas, and serene outdoor spaces.

An Invitation from My Heart to Yours

I invite you to join me for this sacred retreat along the Mendocino coast, where together we will weave moments of peace, laughter, love, and renewal. As a Reiki Master, Shamanic and Sound Healing Practitioner, and Priestess of Avalon, it is my soul’s calling to create spaces where you can reconnect with your true essence where all emotions are honored, transformation is embraced, and joy is reawakened.

Through the healing arts, sacred ceremony, and nature’s embrace, we will journey inward to discover the light that endures through all of life’s seasons. My greatest hope is that you leave not only with cherished memories and new friendships, but also with simple, soul-nourishing practices that will continue to support you long after our time together.

This retreat is a gateway — an invitation to live each day with deeper awareness, gentler compassion, and a heart wide open to the beauty that still awaits.

Come as you are. Leave forever changed.

I would be honored to walk this sacred path with you.

For inquiries about accommodations — including single rooms, shared rooms with beds and pullout sofas, cozy homes for small groups, and other beautiful options — please note that everyone will have their own bed.

Kindly email janineellis@gmail.com to find the space that best supports your journey.

With love and gratitude,

Janine
