Active Living Retreat

Lorna Jane's Move Nourish Believe philosophy

An immersive retreat at SOMA Lorna Jane

The Retreat

This retreat is built on Lorna Jane's 'move, nourish and believe' philosophy, which has been the basis of her success in health, business and life.

Across three interconnected pillars: movement for strength and longevity, nutrition for energy and balance, and mindset to never give up, develop a framework that has worked for Lorna Jane and can also work for you.

Move

Movement as medicine. Learn how it shapes your metabolism, hormones, brain health and longevity, then build a practice that actually fits your life.

Nourish

Food, simplified. Discover how blood sugar, whole foods, protein and hydration shape your energy and mood, then put it into practice in the kitchen.

Believe

Mindset meets nervous system. Understand how your thoughts and stress responses shape your health, then leave with tools for a calmer, more sustainable way of living.

Beyond each morning of learning and connection, is a spacious afternoon of leisure, pool, bathhouse and spa therapies. You can choose to rest, move, or have a personal session with an expert consultant. The afternoon is yours to curate.

Terms and Conditions

This retreat includes

All-inclusive retreat with meals, workshops, movement sessions, group experiences, and daily bathhouse access.

A styled dining table set with multiple white bowls of colorful salads and prepared foods, alongside lit white taper candles in a wooden holder, flowers, and a bright window background.

All meals, snacks, and beverages throughout the retreat.

Every meal is a balance of nourishing macronutrients

One of the most powerful habits you can build is the way you eat, and every meal on this retreat is a quiet demonstration of what that looks like in practice. Seasonal, whole, and genuinely nourishing, the food here is not incidental to the program. It is part of the rewiring.

Breakfasts are protein-rich and grounding, designed to stabilise blood sugar and support the cognitive clarity needed for the morning’s learning. Lunches are generous and balanced, built around whole foods that sustain energy without the afternoon crash. Dinners are lighter and unhurried, an invitation to slow down, connect, and let the day’s insights settle. Snacks, elixirs, and teas woven throughout the day continue the same intention: every offering chosen to nourish the brain and body that is doing the work of change.

All activities, workshops, movement classes, and learning sessions.

Every moment on retreat is curated with intention

Every hour on a SOMA Lorna Jane Retreat is part of the journey. The daily program includes ample leisure time alongside interesting activities and experiences that open the mind to new insights and possibilities.

Movement classes encourage strength, mobility, fitness, flexibility and conscious breathing that leave you feeling energised versus depleted. Our workshops provide practical tools that can be woven into a busy life; presented by qualified educators who have been carefully selected for their expertise, lived experience, and genuine desire to uplift and empower. While evening gatherings invite quality conversations, reflection, light celebrations or quiet meditative experiences. This is the time where the day integrates, and when connection with other women deepens.

Daily bath house access: sauna, warm soaking pools, and cold-water immersion.

Nature, bathing and spa therapies for deep restoration

Together, the day spa and bathhouse create an opportunity to deepen your connection to self and the natural surrounds. A small yet carefully curated menu of signature treatments has been intentionally created to deliver a deeply satisfying experience for your mind, body and nervous system. The bathhouse provides a sequence of hot, warm and cold hydrothermal therapies that further enhance your restorative journey.

Our therapists work with intention and care, creating space for the kind of deep rejuvenation that supports everything else you experience while on retreat. Whether you arrive carrying tension, fatigue, or simply the weight of a busy life, you will leave feeling lighter, clearer, and more present in your body than when you arrived.

Additional Day Spa therapies are available as an add on

Genuine connections with women who also want to live an active life.

Every SOMA Lorna Jane Retreat is rooted in the same philosophy Lorna Jane Clarkson has lived and led for over 37 years: when a woman moves with intention, nourishes herself deeply, and truly believes in what she’s capable of, everything changes. This is not a wellness trend. It is a proven practice. And SOMA Lorna Jane is its most immersive expression.

Set within SOMA Lorna Jane's hinterland sanctuary, our retreats are designed so that the environment itself becomes part of the transformation. Surrounded by rolling hills and rainforest, with architecture intentionally shaped for stillness, connection, and restoration, SOMA Lorna Jane creates the ideal conditions for women to step out of life’s intensity and into calm and clarity.

Facilities include the beautifully appointed SOMA Residence with expansive views across the landscape, a day spa and bathhouse featuring sauna, warm soaking pools and cold-water immersions, two forest Domes, one for mindfulness experiences and one for active strength and movement, and 22 acres of peaceful nature to breathe, explore and restore in.

The daily program weaves together a supportive rhythm of movement, nourishing wholefoods, spa and bathhouse rituals, and deeply satisfying rest. Time in nature: fresh air, sunshine, forest bathing, and swimming; awakens the senses and quiets the mind. Throughout the retreat, quality conversation fosters genuine connection and friendship with like-minded women.

Our featured educators and facilitators have been carefully selected for their qualified expertise, lived experience, and a genuine desire to uplift and empower; always with warmth, depth and a touch of humour.

At SOMA Lorna Jane, we believe a pause can also be productive. Our retreats offer you the opportunity to recalibrate and rise, within an environment that is beautiful, unhurried, and deeply considered.

Secure Your Place

Every SOMA Lorna Jane retreat is intentionally intimate. It is how we ensure every woman who joins is genuinely seen and supported. If this feels like your retreat, trust that. Places are limited and we would love to hold a place for you.
