Let the Light In Retreat
October 18-20 | Big Bear Lake, CA
a women’s mind-body medicine retreat
Spend the weekend immersed in nature, nourishment, and calibrating your mind-body to safety in connection, health, and wellbeing.
Facilitated by Nia Carrillo and guest experts
It’s time to stop carrying the weight of your past on your body and spirit.
As much as the healing path requires integration of our shadows, it’s equally as important to integrate our light and joy.
This is often an overlooked element necessary for our health and wholeness.
The way we rewrite the painful codes of dis-ease and trauma is by showing our bodies new experiences in connection.
Healing in safe containers like this retreat is an invitation to experience safety in deep connection with yourself (body & spirit), Source, and other women.
Will you answer the door to a lighter you?
Join me, Nia Carrillo, a MS Mind-Body Nutritionist and Trauma-Informed Somatic Healer on a journey that honors female physiology and spirituality.

This retreat was designed for women desiring deeper support on their wellness journey.
This retreat was especially designed for you if you find yourself challenged by any combination of the following mind-body signals:
hormonal or gut imbalances
autoimmune related symptoms
burnout, depression, fatigue
physical tension and pain
emotional eating
feelings of “not being enough”/unworthiness
feeling stuck in your career or life
unsure of how to move forward in your life
desiring a space where your emotions are acknowledged with your body
I walked out of this experience feeling exactly how I wanted to feel, which is lighter. I feel not only lighter in my body but a lightness of being that I didn’t know I needed. The experience left me with profound spiritual and emotional revelations and I also took away some very practical tools for how to move through life’s ups and downs. I feel so expansive and ready to implement what I learned in my life and relationships and feel ready to be The Mother that I am meant to be.

“Nia is incredible. Her retreat allowed me to let go of a LOT that was weighing me down and step into a new version of myself. I really appreciate how her approach to wellness + spiritually is super accessible. While very knowledgeable and in tune, she is also very down to earth. She draws a lot from her own personal experience also, which I think makes her an even more trusted practitioner. I am so glad I made this investment in myself!
— Jen C., Solana Beach
The biggest deciding factor in joining this retreat (besides the need to heal) was being surrounded by others who were/are on the same healing journey. I am so grateful for every minute of the time we all had together. For being able to share, cry, and scream openly. To be held while I let out all of the hurt/sadness. I know it's a work in progress, but after leaving the retreat I felt different. Not only lighter, but renewed and more educated on ways to heal. Thank you so so much, Nia. Truly. I know that this is just the beginning of what's to come on my healing journey

Meet your host,
Nia Carrillo
Nia’s healing journey began at a young age. After struggling with her body and relationship to food, she began her quest to create transformation. After years of dieting and forcing herself into a restrictive lifestyle in late adolescence, she began to seek out the means to sustainable transformation. Navigating misinformation, medical gaslighting, and surface level solutions, she embarked on a spiritual journey to reclaim her peace. Nia considers her work a beautiful intersection of science and spirituality, supporting women in the ways she had to piece together over the span of decades. Nia specializes in supporting women rebirth themselves through hormonal-gut nervous system support and spiritual guidance. Every experience, course, or offering you’ll receive from Nia is one that she’s personally embarked on and has sparked transformation in the women she’s guided.
