About Rachel Bonkink
For over fifteen years, I have guided people through deep inner work.
I work with people who are used to thinking clearly and performing at a high level, and who recognise that something deeper needs to shift.
My background in the corporate world allows me to work with complexity, pressure and decision making in a direct way.
My work combines meditation, Buddhist psychology, nervous system understanding and practical self leadership.
I see quickly what is actually going on.
And I guide people to act on it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a meditation retreat or a leadership retreat?
It is both. Meditation is the foundation, but the purpose of the retreat is self leadership. You use meditation, clarity sessions and somatic work to see your patterns clearly and make decisions that are ready to be made. You will experience the importance of your nervous system and ways to regulate it. This might very well be the missing link for why you are manifesting without result on some aspects of life.
Who is the Puglia Retreat for?
This retreat is for high performing women, often professionals, entrepreneurs or leaders, who are used to responsibility and know that something in their life needs a more honest decision.
Do I need meditation experience?
No. You do not need to be an experienced meditator. You do need to be willing to work with attention, silence and self observation in a serious way.
What makes this retreat different from a wellness retreat?
This is not built around relaxation alone. The retreat is structured around clarity, decision making and behavioural change. The setting is beautiful, there is an included massage but the work we do is the real magic.
Why are there two days without devices?
Because constant input keeps many patterns in place. Two full days without devices create the conditions to see more clearly how your mind, nervous system and decisions actually operate.
Is this retreat suitable for women travelling from the US?
Yes. The retreat is designed for experienced international travellers who value quality, privacy, depth and a well held environment. Brindisi is the closest airport. Bari is also possible.
Optional extension
You can stay two days longer and explore more of Puglia.
Lecce
Alberobello
Polignano a Mare
Grottaglie
This is separate from the retreat.
The decision
This is not about September.
It is about whether you are willing to act on something you already know.
Most hesitation is not practical.
It is the moment where something becomes real.
