FEMININE ( rooted in ) WISDOM
A week-long immersive journey
Join our JourneyA deeply immersive experience connecting to the wisdom of nature’s elements.
Right between the earth and sky we meet the medicine of our body and begin to listen to the voice of our hearts.
Tending to and growing deep roots of what it means to be a woman: We celebrate our feminine nature, we dance, we breathe, we swim in the sea, we practice, we heal, we honor our sensuality, we rest under the stars by warm fires and unite in sisterhood.
Together we will remember what we are made of and why we are here.

We are called to soften, to embrace, to love, to rise, to spark, to nurture, to forgive and to make whole.

“Don’t be fooled by my beauty – the light of my face comes from the candle of my spirit.” – Rumi
In November we will gather on a secluded beach in front of the pacific ocean to embrace our wild feminine, taking the journey from our heads into our hearts.
In this edition, our focus will be on our relationship to our sexuality. Creating a deeply supportive and safe space to explore our edges, conditioning, and blockages, where we can release and connect with our authentic feminine power.
We will be diving into practices & rituals that will allow us to expand our capacity for pleasure, and be able to meet life from that place.
To feel the most vibrant, sensually alive, empowered, truly expressed, heart opened version of ourselves.

FAQs
What makes the Luna Journey so special?
La Luna is led by Miriam Adler and a collective of teachers, artists, practitioners and spiritual guides. We collaborate to create a balance in our offering so you have the opportunity to find the balance in yourself.
We gather in this way so that our passion can ignite a flame in you, so that our tools can become solid anchors for your life. We believe that we evolve in community, when we come together and share from the heart.
We don’t teach any spiritual dogma, we share our life experiences and together explore the most meaningful questions to uncover our truth.
It is a space of honesty, realness and mutual encouragement to support each other on the path of expansion.
Are all the Luna Journeys the same?
All the Luna Journeys carry the same essence and are led by Miriam.
Each retreat is grounded in the La Luna principles of meeting the core of who we are, honoring that truth, and being able to authentically share it.
Yet none of our journeys are ever the same.
Each retreat has its own unique programming,and different guest teachers.
Our journeys are a constant creative evolution.
Why is it beneficial for me to only gather with women?
To heal your relationship within the feminine inside a feminine container is potent. It is the perfect environment to learn to trust other women, to let go of learned behaviors such as judgment and comparison and an opportunity to feel safe and grounded support of a new sisterhood.
I see a lot of naked pictures. Is nudity part of the retreat?
Absolutely not, there are no times you will be asked to be naked. We have however observed over and over again women slowly stripping off old layers throughout the journey which somehow in the physical is represented by becoming more barre skinned, less makeup, less jewelry and embracing their natural essence!
We have had many women share that they had never been naked swimming in their life, how they arrived ashamed of their bodies, and one of the most powerful moments for them was finally letting go of that shame and being bare-skinned in a safe place.
Is your retreat focused on sexuality?
Conscious sexuality is a potent component of our retreats. Everything we offer is always an invitation and never a prerequisite, and everyone is encouraged to explore on their own terms.
To have the chance to learn more about our body, and how to invite more pleasure into our lives is a valuable gift we can offer ourselves as women. So often there are many misunderstandings on the subject, and we carry so much shame around our sexuality.
Our intention is for you to free yourself, expand your capacity for pleasure and claim your sensual aliveness!
Do I have to be experienced to participate?
The beauty of La Luna is that it meets you wherever you are in your journey.
Whether you are totally new and want to dive in, or on a long term path and are longing to drop deeper and refresh your practice.
The wisdom of each woman and her unique path is what makes the journey magic.

( What ) People Say

Marina
( I claimed my power )
“Each one of us showed up with an open heart and courage to work through our darkness and surrender with vulnerability in order to step into our light and claim our power as powerful women. The various rituals and practices created space for expansion and transmutation of what no longer serves us.
As I said in the final closing sharing circle, I walked into this journey with a lot of deep fear and hurt and a difficulty to receive and be held. I emerged as a strong woman who claimed her power and is walking in her light. I will forever cherish this experience and the connections we created. I am excited to plant the seeds given to us this week and see what the road ahead holds.” -
NADINE
( I learnt to listen to my heart )
When I arrived in this beautiful space, I was completely lost in my confused mind. I was stuck, doubting all my thoughts, and scared to take action. I asked for clarity, forgiveness, and to let go of all my fears. This experience has given me so much. Now I have really strong tools to ground myself. I learned to listen to my heart, connect with my soul, protect my womb and trust my intuition.

Anastasiya
( Back home I received more positive feedback than ever before )
I arrived with the expectation to connect to my feminine and unfurl a little bit more without even really knowing what that meant. Throughout the first day, I realized how stiff and blocked I am due to thoughts of shame and fear. I had never realized this so clearly before.Spending my time with 30 women, I finally understood that to be in my power does not mean to dominate others. After one week at La Luna Retreat, I ́truly found my way to my authenticity and discovered how much love, acceptance, and joy I can receive in return. Back home, I received more positive feedback than ever before. I hear from people that they feel a big difference and see me bloom.

Stephanie
( I healed my father wound )
For much of my life, I believed I had forgiven my father for the pain he caused me during my childhood. However, during the retreat, I realized that I had merely hidden the pain rather than truly healing from it. Consequently, my forgiveness lacked the depth necessary for true liberation and acceptance. By truly seeing him for the first time during breathwork, I connected with his inner child and understood that he was always doing his best with the tools he had. This realization has been monumental for me since April, leading to a significant shift in my entire family dynamic.

( I learnt through everybody's breakthroughs)
I have learned so much just by being present through everyone’s breakthroughs. This showed me the importance of seeing ourselves as reflections of the whole. Containers like these are needed more and more nowadays in the world.

LAURA
( felt so authentic and natural )
La Luna was truly the way of the heart and reconnect through the most gentle, playful, feminine, nurturing and beautiful was I have ever experienced!
The space offered me a place to deeply breath and feel myself again. It was just truth and pure magic in every moment of the week. Stopping and allowing my true nature to express freely never felt so authentic and natural. I was creatively expressing parts of me through dancing and singing
in a humble way. I claimed back my voice and wings! Thank you so much!”

ELISABETH
I fell in love with myself on this retreat
I fell in love with myself on this retreat. My heart was cracked open and light filled all the forgotten parts of my being. Every detail was curated with love. Every moment was more extraordinary than the last and the women became my family.I am eternally grateful for the time and this family.

Jessica
( I learned the power of slowing down and listening )
“This week changed my life. I was reconnected back to myself after disconnecting without even realizing to what extent. I entered feeling dull and uninspired by myself and certain areas in my life. We pushed ourselves deeply to connect with our truth and unravel the stories that we tell ourselves.
My experience was one of depth and connection with myself and the beautiful inspiring women I was surrounded and supported by. I had the deepest internal shift and can now see and appreciate the subtleties and simplicity that I have been graced with in my life.
I learned discipline and structure to maintain a healthy mind. I learned the power of women and myself as well as the power of slowing down and listening. This week was pure magic -- a reminder of how to live my life deeply and fully.”

( You taught me how to feel again )
“La Luna Retreat is the FIRST retreat that really changed me and moved something inside me. Since I am not used to feeling love, it put me outside my comfort zone and sometimes (very often) in uncomfortable situations. Since leaving, something feels different inside me. I don’t know exactly how or why it happened. Everyone at the retreat helped me A LOT in changing my perspective in life. Now I choose to “choose” love instead of hate, fear and anger.
I’m going through a process and I like it because I’m feeling way better. By being grateful and choosing love, I am able to see the light that life gifts us every day. I want to thank you for that. Thank you for all the work you are doing and the love you taught us. You taught me to feel again.” -
Gabriela
( no longer live with structure, I live with practice )
I can’t even begin to tell you all of the things that have happened since the retreat! Everything from instant manifestations of very large things to life-changing psychic facials to completely changing the way I live. I’m only doing whatever the fuck I want. It feels so good. I no longer live with structure. I live with practice. I no longer do what I should. I do what I want. My self-care game is on fire.
One of the biggest realizations I have had over the last few weeks was around how I relate to women. My desire to be around women hasn’t been top of the list since I lived in all girls housing at boarding school. Generally speaking, I have related better to men than women. The retreat was so great for me in terms of the never-ending conversations, straight heart-to-heart shares within minutes of meeting, and the relatability. It was so lovely to just BE with you all. -
Rachel
( I was able to face my fears )
I was able to sit with and face my fears in my week with you and the beautiful women with us.
I was able to be myself, be seen, let go, dance, laugh, share.
The practices were perfect for me on my journey. Miriam, you are so deeply gifted in holding space for women, helping them to let go and providing love and care to let them grow, heal, be playful, explore.
I now feel and see the flow of abundance in my life daily. And I celebrate it. I am joyful. I am open. I am able to let go more… The fears definitely still pop up but they aren’t gripping like before. I am fighting them less.
My husband says I am more open to being loved since I have come home. More open to my playful, sensual, restful self.
Thank you so much.

Sara
( I no longer judge my body )
“For me, what has shifted the most is my relationship to myself and my body. I no longer feel shame or judgment toward my physical body and in return I no longer feel such a need to put things that are bad inside of it. That has been such a beautiful and profound shift. Integrating a daily meditation and writing practice has been so key here.
Spending a week away from daily life and distractions helped me so much with presence and connection to the other women. It allowed me to embrace the fullness of who I really am.” -
Carola
( The retreat marked a new beginning )
“The La Luna Initiation was an important threshold in my journey. My life before was dull. I was feeling sad, angry, life wasn’t interesting any longer to me. I had lost my curiosity and serenity. The retreat marked the beginning of a self-exploration journey. A journey to discover my inner self, my true nature. Almost one year has passed and my life has radically changed. I am no longer in a relationship that didn’t satisfy me and made me feel unappreciated as a woman but didn’t have the courage to change the situation because of habits and conditioning. I am traveling and exploring the world with different lenses. I embarked on different spiritual experiences and ceremonies to keep rising and evolving. I am celebrating life every moment.”

Joana
( I arrived with feelings of betrayal and left knowing my worth )
“Through gathering and retreating together with 32 women from different countries, I was able to freely express my authenticity by feeling embraced and deeply connected with my La Luna tribe during one week at the Sian Kaan Biosphere and Reserve.
Through sunrise tea ceremonies, fireside chanting, clay and honey masques, sea water swims , night circles and sacred spaces we worked with our feminine essence. I learned the importance of slowing down, reflecting, writing, sharing, laughing, crying, embracing my emotions, and healing together with my fellow La Luna sisters.
I found pieces of myself in the life stories of courageous women either through tears, words, or laughter. During the week-long journey, many emotional layers of sadness, grief and shame were shed in order to heal. Together we meditated, reflected, learned tools to forgive, to express ourselves, to create and recreate. To transform and blossom.
I arrived with a silenced voice and feelings of betrayal. I left Sian Kaan knowing and believing in my sacred feminine, my worth, my essence, my magic and my life purpose: I will tell and embrace my truth and inner voice always.”
