RETURN TO SELF RETREATS AND IMMERSIONS

October 31- November 7 2026 

Return to Self and Swell Women

A week of surf, healing, sisterhood, and nervous system restoration for women ready to stop holding it all together and start feeling fully alive.

WHY THIS RETREAT? 

 

You don't need another vacation.

You need space.

Space to breathe.

Space to hear yourself again.

Space to step away from the roles, responsibilities, pressure, and expectations you've been carrying.

 

This retreat blends surf, somatic healing, nervous system regulation, restorative practices, and sisterhood to help you reconnect with the version of yourself that exists beneath survival mode.

 

Not to become someone new.

To return to who you've always been.

During the week you'll experience:

 

• Daily surf lessons (all levels welcome)

• Somatic healing and nervous system regulation

• Restorative and yin practices

• Group healing experiences

• Integration and reflection

• Beautiful accommodations steps from the ocean

• Deep connection with like-minded women

• Plenty of time to rest, explore, and enjoy Bali

This Retreat is For You If:

 

✓ You're successful on the outside but exhausted on the inside

✓ You've done the mindset work but still repeat the same patterns

✓ You struggle to slow down and truly receive

✓ You're craving connection—with yourself and others

✓ You're ready for a different experience, not just more information

Return To Yourself

This week isn't about becoming someone new.

It's about remembering who you are beneath the pressure, performance, and protection.

The ocean will do its part.

We'll help with the rest.

MEET YOUR RETREAT HOSTS

Chelsi Pugliese

 

Chelsi is the founder of Liberate Your Bliss and creator of the Return to Self Method, a transformational approach blending somatic healing, nervous system regulation, hypnotherapy, subconscious reprogramming, breathwork, meditation, and embodied practices to help women reconnect to themselves beyond survival mode.

 

Trained in somatic healing modalities, hypnotherapy, shamanic energy work, Reiki, Kundalini Activation Process (KAP), inner child healing, and nervous system regulation, Chelsi’s work bridges deep emotional healing with embodied transformation — helping high-functioning women break free from burnout, overthinking, emotional shutdown, people pleasing, and the pressure to constantly hold it all together.

 

Known for her raw, grounded, and deeply transformative facilitation style, Chelsi creates spaces where women can soften, release, reconnect, and rediscover themselves through healing, movement, ocean, surf, sisterhood, and embodied transformation.

 

To Chelsi, the ocean mirrors the healing journey itself — teaching surrender, presence, trust, and the courage to stop performing and finally feel fully alive.

Lulu Agan

 

Lulu has spent over two decades guiding women back to themselves—to their truth, their inner knowing, and lives that feel aligned and deeply their own. As the owner of SwellWomen, Lulu brings together the ocean, yoga, adventure, transformational healing and coaching to create immersive retreats and virtual experiences where women reconnect, restore, and remember who they are.

 

A former globe-trotting corporate executive, entrepreneur, and private chef, Lulu brings a rich tapestry of worldly experience to her work. As a certified yoga teacher, Shamanic & Usui Reiki Master, and KAP Facilitator, she blends deep wisdom with playful spirit, creating spaces where women can slow down, reconnect with their bodies, and step back into their lives with more presence and trust.

 

To Lulu, the ocean has the power to erase egos, unleash bare human spirit and teach one to color outside of the lines—while yoga and energy work invite a return to balance and deep self-connection. She believes that when we reconnect with ourselves, life becomes richer, more vibrant, and deeply our own.
