Your journey back to yourself

This retreat is more than just a break from everyday life.
It’s a coming home – to yourself, to your breath, to what truly matters.
At the same time, it’s a curious exploration: of your inner world, new perspectives, and the magic of Sri Lanka.

Sample Schedule

No two days are quite the same, but here’s a little taste…

7:00 AM · Wake up with the island
Sunrise swim, meditation or morning movement as Sri Lanka wakes up around you.

7:30 AM · Morning Practice
Yoga, breath & movement to arrive in your body.

9:00 AM · Breakfast
Tropical fruits, nourishing food, good coffee & slow mornings.

11:30 AM · Go a little deeper
Somatics, nervous system education & embodied exploration.

1:00 PM · Lunch & Slow Time
Eat. Swim. Read. Nap. Connect. Whatever feels good.

4:00 PM · Learn & Adventure
Surf, cook, visit a temple, kayak or discover another corner of Sri Lanka.

7:30 PM · Come Together
Dinner, stories & connection, followed by sound healing, reflection or maybe dancing.

Gentle Side Note

This retreat is a mix of guided experiences and spacious freedom. Nothing is mandatory – everything is an invitation.

Between sessions, there’s time to rest, journal, swim in the sea, or dive into extras like massages, Ayurvedic consults or extra surf lessons.

MEET THE FOUNDER

Hey, I’m Lara Sophie,

Certified trauma-informed therapist, somatic educator, yoga teacher and the heart behind The Soulshine Space.

A few years ago, my life looked completely different. I worked as a police officer, pushed my body to extremes in bodybuilding and tried to control everything around me.

From the outside, I seemed to have it all together, but inside I was numb, disconnected, and lost touch with who I really was.

My turning point wasn’t loud or dramatic, it was a slow and steady awakening. Through yoga classes, meditation retreats, somatic therapy, energy work and trauma-informed spaces, I finally started to truly feel my body again.

I could connect with my repressed anger, the underlying grief, and all those emotions that had kept me distanced from flow & ease in everyday life.

Since then, the path of somatic healing has been constantly inspiring and reminding me of the inherent truth we all share: being fully alive asks us to step out of the analyzing mind and experience life through sensations, emotions, and with that, presence and safety in our bodies.

P.S. Still got my vices - Hazelnut Butter & Coffee being two of them. But hey, not here to pretend I’ve got it all figured out. x

MEET THE FOUNDER

Hey, I'm Lara Sophie

Former police officer. Former bodybuilder.
Now somatic therapist, trauma educator and founder of The Soulshine Space.

I spent years trying to control everything around me before discovering what it truly means to feel safe, connected and alive.

Today, I create spaces where others can reconnect with themselves too.
