Tending to the Whole Woman
Wild Women Hawai‘i gatherings are peaceful, down to earth sanctuaries created to nourish your whole being: socially, emotionally, physically, spiritually, ancestrally, and environmentally.
We honor the wisdom of wellness as a holistic path. As Oxford Reference notes, true wellness is cultivated through a blend of emotional, environmental, mental, physical, social, and spiritual health. The Global Wellness Institute expands on this, describing wellness as “the active pursuit of activities, choices, and lifestyles that lead to a state of holistic health.”
At Wild Women Hawai‘i, we embrace this interconnected view. We believe wellness is not a single destination, but a journey of tending to the whole woman; her body, her mind, her heart, her relationships, and her connection to the Earth.
These gatherings are designed to support the whole woman, but each experience is personal. You may be drawn to one aspect more than another, or simply to the feeling of being in a nourishing environment. What follows describes the full scope of what these spaces are capable of holding, as a whole. Your experience will be your own.

At Wild Women Hawai‘i, we define “spiritual” as that which comes from within: intuitive, inner, and beyond the outer physical shell.
