8-Night Women's Healing Retreat in Guatemala | The Butterfly at Lake Atitlán
You've outgrown the story.
This is your initiation.
An 8-Night Women's Healing Retreat · Lake Atitlán, Guatemala
The Butterfly — Women's Healing Retreat by The Cocoon
The Butterfly is an 8-night women's healing retreat near Lake Atitlán, Guatemala. Six women per cohort. The retreat combines ceremony, somatic healing, Reiki, sound healing, ancestral healing, breathwork, temazcal, private healing sessions, and integration support. Held by Tori and Tye Adekoya inside The Cocoon Healing Retreat ecosystem.
This is not a wellness vacation. This is a threshold experience for women who are done performing and ready to return to something real inside themselves. 2026 dates: July 17–25 and October 9–17. Six women only.
You were not born to carry this much.
The roles. The armor. The careful, constructed version of yourself you built to survive a world that asked you to be smaller than you are.
It isn't personality. It's armor. And armor that once saved your life has a way of becoming the thing that makes it hardest to live one.
This is an invitation to descend into the elements... Earth, Water, Fire, Air, Ether... and let them do what they have always known how to do.
What remains is not someone new.
What remains is you... sovereign, embodied, and free.
The butterfly does not fight the cocoon. She surrenders to it.
There is a before.
And there is an after.
When you know your worth deep in your bones... when the patterns you've been carrying for years finally begin to loosen... something shifts that can never be undone.
- ◦Running on empty
- ◦People-pleasing or shrinking
- ◦Performing strength you don't feel
- ◦Waiting for the other shoe to drop
- ◦Negotiating with yourself
- ◦Trying to fix what was never broken
- ◆Rooted in something that can't be taken
- ◆Choosing instead of chasing
- ◆A devastating sense of wholeness
- ◆Responding instead of bracing
- ◆An unapologetic sense of self-assurance
- ◆Feeling free
The stories that kept you small begin to whisper instead of yell. You move differently because something real has shifted.
This is what the work makes possible.
You don't have to be spiritual to be here.
You don't have to have it figured out.
You don't have to be in crisis, or healed, or anywhere in between.
You just have to be done with the version of yourself
that was built for everyone else's comfort.
This retreat was built for women who are done performing and ready to come back to what is real.
Not a highlight reel.
An actual life.
These aren't promises. They're what becomes possible when you stop performing and start returning.
Emotional Freedom
The stories that kept you small begin to loosen their grip. Not gradually. Sometimes all at once.
Identity Reclamation
You remember who you were before the world got loud about who you should be.
Creative & Spiritual Reactivation
Your voice comes back. Your fire. The part of you that was never meant to disappear.
Real Community
A room where you don't have to curate yourself to belong. Five women who will see you clearly.
Somatic Healing
We work with what lives in the body too, gently, directly, and without forcing what isn't ready.
A Life Built From the Inside Out
Not borrowed values. Not fear disguised as responsibility. Something that is actually, finally, yours.
This work delivers.
Not just emotionally. In the body. In the psyche. In life after the retreat.
“The healing I experienced, physiological, psychological, and spiritual, was immediate, profound, and lasting. Four months later, the shifts remain just as strong. I know they are permanent.”
Tori and Tye are truly all-in when it comes to supporting anyone seeking healing or spiritual transformation. Their connection to healing energy is real, powerful, and deeply felt. This retreat changed my life, and I am forever grateful. I believe in their work so much that I would gladly speak with anyone who is unsure about taking this step.
K. BolinK. has offered to speak personally with any woman who is on the fence.
Reach out and we will connect you directly.
“There aren't any words to describe how my path in life has changed seeing Tye and Victoria. Tye has a rare ability to channel something profound, his approach is both badass and deeply thoughtful. I literally got goosebumps.”
“I've been through western psychology and SSRIs, to no avail. Reiki became my last resort. Victoria is a true healer. A master at her craft. I feel light after feeling like I've been weighed down for so long.”
“I was not expecting such a life-changing response. As a cancer patient, we are often skeptical of alternative medicine. After that day I have felt so strong. It was a miracle.”
“I came wanting to learn to heal others. I didn't know it would heal me. I am writing this two weeks later, without anxiety and feeling hopeful.”
“Long-held shame, emotional blocks, years of being held back, released. No matter how intense the work, I always leave feeling calm, at ease, and positive. Victoria is a true healer.”
“Victoria is incredibly caring, intuitive, skilled, and knowledgeable. Once you meet her, you'll automatically feel comfortable and at ease. Her sessions are consistently beyond great.”
“She's become an integral part of my healing journey, helping me shed layers of pain and trauma that were previously inaccessible. Her healing power is undeniable.”
Who this is for
- You've been the strong one for so long you've forgotten what it feels like to just be human.
- You've done the work, read the books, been to therapy, and something deeper still won't move.
- You've outgrown the version of yourself that got you here, and you know it.
- You want to stop performing and start living from something real.
- Something brought you to this page. Trust that pull.
- You're looking for a quick fix or a neat formula.
- You want someone else to do the inner work for you.
- You need to stay defended at all costs.
- You're not ready for honesty with yourself yet, and that's okay. Come back when you are.
Inside the retreat
Somatic. Energetic. Ancestral. Ceremonial.
This work will test you. And it will be worth it.
This is an 8-night immersive healing experience for women, working through the body, the nervous system, and the ancestral field. Every modality is here for a reason. Nothing filler.
Your most ancient teachersYou won't be lost here. That's by design.
Six women only. You will be seen here, not swallowed by the crowd.
Eight nights, each layer opening you for the next. You won't be rushed through your own transformation.
Two facilitators with distinct gifts, moving as one field of care around you.
Each modality builds on the one before it. You're not sampling a menu. You're moving through a sequence designed to take you somewhere you haven't been able to reach on your own.
This is the difference between healing
that visits you
and healing that stays with you.
What's Included in Your 8-Night Women's Healing Retreat
Eight nights is a long time to be held. Here is everything that holds you.
Your experience begins before you land.
Before you set foot on sacred ground, we begin the work together, so you arrive oriented, open, and already held.
The deepest work happens one on one.
Every participant receives private healing sessions scheduled intentionally across the week, tailored to what is ready to move in you.
Rhythm is medicine.
Each day is structured to support regulation, embodiment, and integration, with enough space for the work to settle.
Where the individual becomes collective.
Group experiences designed for insight, release, and integration, held carefully and paced intentionally.
The land is part of the work.
Not tourist activities. Each excursion is woven into the retreat arc with ceremony, intention, and presence.
Rest is part of the healing.
Your stay, your food, and your surroundings are chosen to support the body through deep work.
The container doesn't close when you leave.
Integration is part of the work. We hold space for what continues to unfold after you return home.
"Private room. Nourishing meals. Private healing sessions. Eight nights held by sacred land, elemental ceremony, and two facilitators who live this work and mean every word."

8 nights · July 17–25 & October 9–17, 2026 · Pricing and payment options discussed on Clarity Call
Held by Lake Atitlán,
Guatemala
This retreat unfolds between the quiet intimacy of Tzunaná and the welcoming gateway of Panajachel.
Lake Atitlán is not a backdrop. She is part of the medicine. Ringed by volcanoes, wrapped in jungle, and alive with a presence that people feel before they can explain it, this land holds the retreat in its own way. Beauty is not separate from transformation here. It becomes part of the work itself.
