What others say…
“Chandu skilfully structured and facilitated a day of rich reflection, quietude and sharing. Each detail was thoughtfully attended to and Chandu’s warmth and insight held the space with safety, authenticity and clarity. This is exactly what I needed in order to hear my inner voice and reflect on the year gone by and to come.”

“Chandu is, quite simply, AMAZING! Her mentorship is kind, gentle, loving and deeply transformative. A women’s circle is an ancient and profoundly empowering space and Chandu holds that in a way that is compassionate, inspiring and safe.”
Chandu’s retreats offer a variety of tools and techniques including conversation, guided meditation, craft and reflection. Every activity is carefully curated to give you the best opportunity to rest, refresh and reconnect with your deep inner knowing.
Your Host – Chandu Bickford has been leading groups and serving women as a mentor, facilitator and educator for more than 20 years.

May we remember that caring for ourselves is not a luxury, it is essential to our ultimate wellbeing.
“My work is not about telling women who to become. It is about helping them hear, trust and embody the wisdom already within them.”
