Unmask & Unwind | A Neurodivergent Yoga Retreat

A neuro-affirming, sensory-safe retreat for neurodivergent adults.

September 14–16, 2026 | Byron Bay Hinterland

Retreat for Neurodivergent Women & AFAB in Byron Bay 2026.

A weekend to rest your brain, body, and breath.

For so many neurodivergent adults, even downtime feels like another demand, or task on the never ending to-do list.

The world asks for constant output, adaptability, and masking - but rarely offers space for rest, where you can take off both your mask, and all of the hats you wear.

Unmask & Unwind was created for those who live with busy minds, big hearts that over-give and/ or over-function, and overwhelmed nervous systems that feel like they are pulled in a million directions.

This is a weekend designed for gentle recalibration - no masking (if you don't want to), no pressure to do anything, no pushing through discomfort.

Designed by an AuDHD trauma-informed & neuro-affirming counsellor/ yoga therapist, Unmask & Unwind blends neuro-affirming education, mindfulness, and gentle movement to help you understand, honour and advocate for your own energetic needs.

Set on 170 acres of lush, private paradise, you'll move gently between yoga, workshops designed specifically for the ND experience, sensory self-care, practical tools for regulation and rest and spacious time in nature - leaving you grounded, recharged, and connected back to yourself.

Spaces are limited. Join us 14-16 September 2026 and give yourself permission to rest - it is essential for our wellbeing.

If you feel even a little bit like this is what you need, then times that by a hundred in terms of you actually needing to do it.. You will get everything you need from the experience and more. I almost didn’t make it because of burnout and this is what I would have missed out on - 3 days of beautiful souls speaking my language, 3 days of not feeling judged even for 1 second, so many nourishing meals and conversations, Mollie’s workshops and yoga, the most beautiful natural environment and mostly, the exact experience promised - to unmask and unwind. We were loved on so much and given so much freedom and there is absolutely no reason to not come along and let yourself be nurtured and seen.

Learn more about our Retreat

I came into this retreat with a craving to unplug for a bit and reconnect to my feminine, embodied self - and it delivered. Every part of it was just magic. The floristry workshop was such a fun and unexpected highlight, the food was next-level, and the sound healing was so grounding. I loved the mix of different facilitators and the whole venue was just stunning. What stood out most was how spacious the whole experience felt. There was this beautiful balance of structure and freedom, with space to dip in and out of whatever called to us. Nothing felt forced - it was all offered with so much warmth and care. I especially loved having a free afternoon to just be. It all felt so supportive, like a little family. Huge love to Mollie and the rest of the team - you somehow managed to make time stretch in the best way, and I left feeling nourished, connected, and so grateful.
