West Coast Business Park feature<\/strong><\/p>\n

Retreat Yourself is helping tens of thousands of women find happiness, fulfilment and a sense of wellbeing all over Australia and New Zealand.<\/p>\n

Launched in 2015 by founder Kate Buchan, Retreat Yourself is Kate\u2019s answer to life\u2019s all too common problems of stress, anxiety, worry and depression.<\/p>\n

The first time she realised a need for a product like this was when she was working in the corporate industry and studying Holistic Nutrition.<\/p>\n

After a conversation with a close friend who was booking a holiday at a retreat to de-stress and ground herself, Kate realised that the people around her were living lives they felt a need to \u2018escape\u2019 from in order to recuperate.<\/p>\n

With so many people booking into physical retreats to relax and restore their connection with themselves, combined with what she saw as a deeply flawed health industry, focused solely on food, fitness and aesthetic changes as a measure of health, Kate saw a need to create a product that meant people didn\u2019t need to \u2018escape\u2019 their daily lives to feel whole again.<\/p>\n

And so Retreat Yourself was born.<\/p>\n

\"\"
A Retreat Yourself box contains all-Australian wellness products.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

A product that isn\u2019t \u2018just\u2019 a product, but a way to deeply transform lives for the better. Boxes of all-Australian wellness products that are helping women find happiness, empowerment, fulfilment and a sense of wellbeing \u2013 giving them the benefits of going on a retreat, but within the comfort of their own homes.<\/p>\n

From humble beginnings in Kate\u2019s beach shack living room in 2015, Retreat Yourself has since doubled its growth year on year and recently hit a huge milestone of opening its own warehouse in the West Coast Business Park.<\/p>\n

Retreat Yourself has now grown to seven full-time staff members and hires more than 20 casual employees each year from within the Surf Coast region.<\/p>\n

The Retreat Yourself team is incredibly passionate about showcasing Australian owned businesses inside the boxes.<\/p>\n

This means small Australian brands are getting their products into the hands of health conscious consumers, who are looking for businesses just like theirs.<\/p>\n

Today, Retreat Yourself boxes are being sent all over Australia and New Zealand, helping countless women on their own personal journeys to feeling better in themselves.<\/p>\n
