REST ASSURED RETREAT

Return to You in 4 days & 3 nights

A moment in time where your only focus is to return to yourself. You desire nothing more than to release the busyness of life and reconnect with your true baseline energy of radiance, purpose, and fulfilment—something you’ll carry with you, not just experience in the moment, and watch as it creates a ripple effect throughout the rest of your life.

Be fully cared for and guided through an immersive experience that will transform how you see yourself and how you show up in the world — in your full, powerful, worthy, and expressive fire. You will embark on a journey to heal your relationship with your mind, body, and the expression of your soul. Through a series of workshops with Hillary and her favourite practitioners, you will be guided back to your true self and learn techniques and practices to create a life of flow and ease—in your mind, body, and soul.

Over the four days, you will be inspired to create a life that is true to you, cultivate safety and peace in your body, and access deeper layers of awareness and clarity within yourself. You will reconnect with parts of yourself you may have felt were lost, as well as discover aspects you didn’t know were there. Leave behind all the stress, guilt, pain, and burdens to discover and embody the REAL you—free from protective shields and self-doubting patterns.

It is the perfect blend of resting your body and recalibrating your mind and soul. Simply come ready to be held, supported, and guided through your evolution.

Through a journey of deep workshops, connection, embodiment practices, breathwork, and somatic releases, you will be guided into your next evolution. This is not just superficial changes but deep transformations that will happen in your subconscious and ripple outwards. You will leave feeling rejuvenated, unburdened, and enlivened with deeper awareness and embodiment of the woman you want to be!

Alongside all this doing, there will be equal time for being. You’ll have the space to integrate and restore your body—whether that’s time spent in nature, enjoying a spa treatment, napping by the pool, or detoxifying in the sauna. You will meet and connect with like-minded individuals, coming together in support while sharing nourishing meals under the stars.

This is an experience like no other, lovingly and thoughtfully curated from the very beginning. Receive it all—you deserve this time.

More than a retreat or vacation, this is a lifestyle & mindset transformation.

Take me there

“Hillary’s retreat was one of the best decisions of my life. It was nourishing for my soul, mind, and body. It changed my perspective on myself and my life, and as a result, everything shifted. I am so glad I invested in myself; I received so much, and it’s the gift that keeps on giving. Thank you Hillary! From the bottom of my heart.”

— Bella

THE RETREAT TRANSFORMATION

DAY 1 EARTH ELEMENT: GROUND & CONNECT TO YOUR BODY, INTUITIVE VOICE & KNOWING

Learn how to connect with your body’s innate wisdom and knowledge, revealing the truth of who you are. Awaken the deepest aspects of your true self and release who you are not. When you understand your natural way of being, you attract what is right for you and let go of what isn’t. Through a process of restoring your nervous system and connecting with your body’s messages, you will experience a complete mind, body, and soul connection, and find the clarity and direction you have been seeking.

DAY 2 WATER ELEMENT: UNCOVER YOUR SUBCONSCIOUS & RELEASE WHAT IS HOLDING YOU BACK

We see the world through our own eyes, stories, perceptions, preferences, and biases. This retreat will reflect back to you where you are your own biggest storyteller. We must release and no longer attach ourselves to our stories and conditioning in order to become truly free. Through a series of eye-opening exercises and wisdom sessions, you will become the author of your future, rather than a victim of your mind’s attacks.

DAY 3 FIRE ELEMENT: IGNITE YOUR FEMININE FLAME, DEEP EMBODIMENT & ART OF RECEIVING

Journey into your deepest self and innate power, exploring your full spectrum and potential. Unfold your purpose, unleash your creative fire, and embody your feminine essence. Transformation occurs when you meet your edge and inspire yourself by moving through it anyway. You will taste and embody the energy you wish to emanate into the world. Remember your worth and who you are, so you never forget it again.

DAY 4 EARTH ELEMENT: INSPIRE YOURSELF & CREATE YOUR FUTURE VISION

This is where we create the difference you wish to see in your life. You will learn daily practices and techniques to help you return to your inner calm and peace. You will create an action plan to ensure that your Retreat transformation continues in the real world for months and years to come. You will be guided towards your inner clarity, confidence, and true energy source, so your fears and anxieties no longer take hold.

Words from our past guests:

“What magical 4 days I had at the Rest Assured Retreat. From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed, loved, and safe. The warmth from Hillary and all the other guests (who were complete strangers on day 1 but by day 4, soul sisters) is a precious moment in time that will forever be etched into my heart and memory. Hillary did not miss a beat with every little detail considered and well thought out. From the vast array of welcome gifts on my bed on arrival, to the incredible caterers who nourished us the entire time to the extraordinary facilitators who shared their wisdom with us, it was honestly the most wholesome weekend of my life. I walked away, actually more like floated away, with a deeper understanding of myself, of others and a profound amount of respect for the women who went on this journey with me. Everyone held space for each other in the most warm & loving way. I could not be more grateful to every single person I encountered over the 4 days. Lastly, I'd like to take this opportunity to shout out to the woman who made this all possible, Hillary. Wow, what an awe-inspiring woman you are. Thank you for creating the most beautiful space that allowed each and every one of us to just be, no matter what that looked like. I will be forever grateful to the universe for bringing you into my life. You gave me the greatest gift a person could receive - learning to be more kind to yourself xxx.”

“My drive home from y/our retreat was epic, sounds full blast, singing and dancing in my seat. Feeling so joyous and full! Life certainly is to be lived through this new lens of clear clean energy. Gone is what is no longer serving me. I thank you from the depth of my Soul that you left, have faith that this was your calling. Thank you feels not enough. You inspire, share your vulnerabilities, bring your knowledge, hold space and rejoice in growth of others. You are a gem to this world. I can honestly say I love you, until next time”

— Leigh

"Hillary’s retreat was far beyond my expectations. From the first class teachers she engaged to the beautiful women who attended, it was an experience that has definitely changed my life. Hillary held a beautiful space for women to show up as themselves and in such a short time a “sisterhood” was created between all of us. If you are looking for a safe space to explore yourself and change your life this experience is for you. Such a beautiful balance between learning, being, and resting. XX"

Chelsea
"I am so grateful for my experience with Hillary. I attended her retreat and can say I had the most beautiful experience. I felt so looked after, cared for, and loved the entire time. I enjoyed every single part of the retreat and loved learning and engaging with the professionals that Hillary had organised to join and teach us on our retreat. The perfect balance of relaxation and learning. I cannot wait to attend the next one. Thank you so much for the most amazing opportunity. You are one of a kind!"

Liv
"Such heart-felt gratitude for you, I truly cannot express how much I appreciate you and the gorgeous women you attracted for the retreat. The love & intention infused into the retreat was absolutely remarkable, thank you for holding space and celebrating me - I will never forget it!"

Maddison
"Hillary’s kind, gentle yet incredibly empowering nature makes you feel like you can take on the world. I feel deeply seen, understood, and validated every time I speak with her and in her presence. She is pure light and brings you up with her. I am grateful to have experienced the magic she creates."

Kathleen, Western Australia
"Hillary is a wealth of knowledge and applies Human Design practically and realistically. She breaks it down so it is achievable and I saw a change in my perspective and outlook instantly. She has a gift of reframing and changing the way you see yourself and the reality. She helps you apply HD so that it jumps from theory to a way of being. Thank you Hillary, your program was a godsend."

Simone, Queensland
"I will be forever grateful for finding Hillary and her Rest Assured Retreat. I have been lost in a cloud of PTSD, anxiety and depression for a while. From the moment I arrived at the retreat I felt loved and cared for and left the retreat four days later feeling mentally lighter. Tears flowed that have been hiding for a long time. Thank you for introducing me to Vedic meditation. I feel that it has helped me calm the waves in my mind. Every detail of the retreat was well thought out with love and care in mind from the food, to the facilitators, the little extras surprises in our rooms and the beautiful dinner under the trees. I was so fortunate to have met a wonderful group of ladies and share an amazing time with them. Thank you Hillary!"

Trish, Queensland

“Hillary’s retreat is one of the most important and valuable experiences I’ve had in my life. Every moment was created with great intention and love. I was nervous to invest in myself like this, but I am extremely glad I did. It is the gift that keeps on giving - since then my work & relationship has done a 180. Life feels clearer, lighter and purposeful - I don't get overwhelmed or stressed like I used to. Thank you Hillary, I can't wait to return again for my next tune up! ;)”

— Cassandra

“I just sat for like 2 minutes crying deep tears of joy for my life & all that happened over the weekend. I cannot express how grateful I am to have met you and been a part of what you created over the weekend. I have been to some amazing retreats in my life, but nothing, and I mean nothing, has even come close to what you created - from the food, facilitators, facilities, workshop content but most of all the sacred space you created for all of us to let ourselves be seen. I've literally never felt so seen in ALL my life. And I'm 43!

I know we all did the work, and we really did, but you created the fertile ground (through all the unseen work you’ve put in to get to this point) for all the seeds of greatness to grow through & sprout up...and now we get to continue that beautiful growth process & continue to nurture and water ourselves. I hope in time, I have the opportunity to work with you in some capacity as I think you are an exceptional human & you're here to do things far greater than you even realize you're capable of! Much love & deep gratitude to you xx”

CONNECTION

We have received wonderful reviews, and one thing that resonates most deeply with women is the sense of sisterhood they become part of. Connecting with like-minded women in a space free from judgement, filled with love, encouragement, and inspiration. This is a safe place to land, where everything is welcome, where you are supported, and where you can return to yourself.

Facilitated by Hillary, Human Design Teacher, Breathwork & IFS Practitioner

Hillary is dedicated to her mission of empowering people to be in their fullest, most free essence, and step into their potential and purpose. Using a plethora of modalities such as Human Design, Breathwork, Positive Psychology and Mindset Work, Hillary helps people understand themselves better, shift the way they see themselves and the world, and how to best use their energy to create a life on their terms.

Hillary discovered Human Design in 2017 while working as a lawyer, and it gave her the clarity to leave a career that was leaving her unfulfilled and burnt out. She relocated to Europe and studied Human Design in London, and since then has dedicated her time to teaching and sharing the practice globally, helping others to understand themselves deeply at their core. When you understand how YOU work, you can create a life of ease and satisfaction, rather than swimming against the current of resistance and struggle. Hillary’s mission is to transform the way you see yourself and your perspective of the world, leading to a happier and more fulfilling life. This valuable information is only as useful as your ability to integrate and apply it practically in your daily life. This is what we will focus on during the retreat – using this awareness to transform the way you live.

It will become your safe haven, a home away from home, and a portal for transformation. We will share communal meals at the seven-metre-long dining table, exchange stories around the fire pit, receive teachings in the exceptional geodesic dome, swim in the freshwater infinity pool, and stroll through the lush bamboo and lychee forests on the property.

We want you to leave your worries at the door and step into a space where you will feel completely cared for.
