Return to the Womb
A 5-Day Immersion into Womb Wisdom, Healing & the Art of Conception
SEPTEMBER 10-14 2026
Belleville, Ontario
Remember the Intelligence of Your Womb
The womb is a vessel of creation, intuition, memory, and transformation.
For generations, women have carried stories, wounds, dreams, and wisdom within their wombs. Through the noise of modern life, many have become disconnected from this sacred center.
Return to the Womb is an immersive journey designed to help women reconnect with the wisdom of their bodies, heal ancestral patterns, deepen their relationship with creation, and remember the sacred art of bringing life into the world.
Together we will gather in ceremony, sisterhood, teachings, and embodied practices inspired by Mayan ancestral wisdom, traditional healing arts, and feminine spirituality.
Whether you desire to conceive a child, birth a project, deepen your relationship, heal your lineage, or simply reconnect with yourself, this retreat offers a powerful space of remembrance.
Who is this for?

- Women desiring a deeper connection with their womb and feminine essence

YOUR FACILITATORS
Charlotte Nieuwenhuis
Charlotte is the founder of Heart to Earth and is devoted to weaving mystical traditions, ancestral wisdom, and plant medicine into pathways for modern healing. Her work explores the root causes of our disconnection from Spirit, the Earth, and ourselves, guiding people back into relationship with the wisdom of the Divine Mother and the living pulse of nature. Through ceremony, sacred cacao, and Indigenous teachings, she creates transformative spaces of remembrance, healing, and reconnection.
She has dedicated her life to bridging the ancient with the emerging, cultivating a deeper bond with the Earth, and reestablishing the sacredness of life through reciprocity, integrity, and responsibility.
Nana Reyna Zavala
Nana Reyna is a respected Mayan K’iche wisdom keeper who has dedicated her life to preserving and sharing ancestral teachings surrounding womanhood, birth, family, and the sacred relationship between humanity and nature. Drawing from generations of Indigenous knowledge, she guides participants through Mayan cosmovision, the wisdom of conscious conception, the sacred role of the placenta and umbilical cord, and traditional ceremonies that honor the cycles of life. Her presence carries the depth, gentleness, and strength of a living lineage.
Malin
Maria-Jose, lovingly known as Malin—her spirit name—is a medicine woman who believes deeply in the healing power of authentic human connection. Guided by Spirit, her teachers, and the ancestral medicines that have found her along the way, she creates spaces where women are invited to soften, remember, and return to their innate wholeness.
Her work is rooted in reverence, weaving together embodiment practices, sound healing, sisterhood, creativity, and inner child healing. With a gentle and grounded presence, Malin supports women in reconnecting with their hearts, embracing vulnerability as a source of strength, and cultivating relationships built on trust, authenticity, and love. She believes that within each sincere encounter, we are offered the opportunity to remember the divine reflected in one another.
