{ THE WISE WOMAN }
CRAFTED & LED BY MELAYNE SHAYNE
“I believe that In the heart of every woman beats the longing to sit with her sisters, to connect deeply and to share from her most vulnerable, raw and instinctual being. However many of us have forgotten or rejected these parts of our-selves. We have become fragmented in self, divisive and disconnected from other women. So much of my own healing and personal growth has been through sharing space and creating with other women, learning to receive and give feminine nurturing, fully embodying my sensuality and sexual, creative being, embracing my potential for aggression and strength, as well as cultivating a space of harmony, and continuous recalibration of balance within self, others and nature.
I believe that the flow of life naturally guides us to where we are meant to be and where we belong…
UPCOMING EXPERIENCES
THE WISE WOMAN RETREAT,MONTANA USA, AUG 27 - Sept 1, 2025
THE WISE WOMAN WOMAN RETREAT
MONTANA USA | AUGUST 27 - SEPTEMBER 1, 2025
For 6 days and 5 nights (includes arrival + departure days) we will live and immerse ourselves in an intimate tribal community of sisters secluded in nature at Melayne’s home in Montana. Enclosed only by the forest and the mountain view our home away from home was thoughtfully designed to retreat, for recovery, harmony, grounding, connecting with our inherent wilderness, and a deep dive into self.
INTENTION
The Wise Women Retreat is a space to practice sisterhood through nurturing our own mother~daughter bonds by spending quality time together with other women away from the distractions of everyday life, cultivating new yet ancient rituals. This shared experience is devoted to honor our feminine, our ancestral lineage of women, to honor where we come from in order to understand self more intimately and create cherished memories that will last a lifetime. We will attune to our intuitive connection to nature and a life in harmony with the natural rhythms and cycles through guided meditation, sound healing, Budokon Yoga and Mobility movement, ancient natural beauty practices, joyful aging, studying herbalism, healing touch, gardening, cooking and time spend in and with nature.
The intention is to soften, to approach life, our encounters and relationships with an open heart, trusting the mysticism of what is yet to come as we step into the Creatrixes of Life itself who we are.
Bringing a female relative of blood or heart can be beautiful however it is not necessary to embark on this journey of re-connection to have them physically present.
EXPERIENCE
Morning Rituals, Matcha Ceremony, Meditation, Nervous System Recalibration, Breath Work, Hot and Cold Exposure, Budokon Yoga, Budokon Mobility, Sensual and Creative Movement Exploration, Contact Improv, Natural Beauty Rituals and Education, Gua Sha and Reflexology Routines, Hormon Balancing, Detox and Nurturing Foods, Healing Touch Through Body Work, an unforgettable photo shoot, and lots of connection.
THE WOLF PACK LEADERS
Next to Melayne Shayne, our Wolf Pack Leaders Davonne Smith, Sibylle Klaus, Esther Leon, Isabelle Wittebort will contribute with their crafts and facilitate a fully immersive experience for our Wolf Pack.
REIMAGINE BEAUTY
Davonne Smith’s personal passion and love for natural processes and good health led her to become a Licensed Holistic Esthetician with 20+years of experience and a Budokon Yoga Teacher. She has always been inspired by the healing that Mother Earth offers, and through self-studies and mentors found her “WAY” that built her path of healing both internally and externally. Her intention is to share her wisdom and support other women in rediscovering their sacred inner and outer beauty at any age. She will will introduce us to holistic ancient self care rituals that continuously nurture us from the inside out revealing radiant skin, good health and aging naturally with grace. During our time together we will share “THE WAYS” to integrate gua-sha and facial reflexology routines, dry brushing, natural mouth and hair care as well as essential oils into our daily modern lives.
HOLISTIC NUTRITION
Farm-To-Table and living with the land is our philosophy around food. Eating from what the gardens of nature provide us with, digging our hands in the earth and truly experiencing gratitude for the seeds we plant is an essential experience of The Wise Woman Retreat. During our time together we will nourish our souls and bodies with a delicious and wholesome brunch, afternoon snack and nourishing dinner. As a guiding force of our Wolf Pack, our Chef and Integrative Nutritional Health Coach Esther Leon will forge a nurturing sanctuary where women can embark on a transformative and empowering journey of holistic vitality and radiant fulfillment. With her unique blend of passion, expertise and empathy she will create a delicious and wholesome menu support to our Wise Women.
SENSUALITY & HEALING
Long term Budokon Family member and Wolf Pack Leader Sibylle Klaus will enhance and soothe to our senses with nurturing and deeply healing body work as well as Sound Healing Journeys.
ART PROJECT & PHOTOGRAPHY
Isabelle Wittebort will offer creative practices for us to submerge ourselves further into our psyches, our conscious and unconscious parts through art therapy and photography.
BUDOKON MIXED MOVEMENT EXPLORATION
We will MOVE and express our bodies in unexplored ways to break and reshape patterns of the mind and matter. Melayne will guide us through Budokon Yoga, Mobility and Yobility classes, free form movement journeys and sensual awakening practices, primal crawling patterns, strength and conditioning workouts, breath work and meditation.
INTEGRITY SESSIONS ~ WOLF PACK TALKS
In our daily WOLF PACK TALKS group sessions we discuss aspects that are integral to our human experience and how to create a life in alignment with our values. If we act in misalignment with our core truth, blindly following unconscious motives directed by our limiting beliefs, we are no longer living in integrity but rather in contradiction with our essence and won’t be able to create what we truly desire. Only from a place of knowing self, identifying root causes and thought patterns of our triggers and contradictions we can create the empowered choice to act consciously. Collectively we will dive into our belief structures and attachments to identify what no longer is in service to us to live a full-filled and expansive life.
Melayne also offers individualized MindSet & Intention Coaching Sessions using the InnerCompass Enneagram Personality Test to dive deep 1:1 with anyone inspired. Please inquire for more information.
LIVING IN THE MONTANA MOUNTAINS
We will live and immerse ourselves in an intimate tribal community of Wolf Pack Sisters at Budokon Montana. Melayne’s home is located on a sequestered five acre plot of land carved out from surrounding protected national forest. Enclosed only by nature the home was thoughtfully designed for movement, connection, retreat, recovery and a deep dive into self.
Our entire 5 acre property is a playground and training facility we invite you to use as much as you can during your stay with us. From our outdoor dojo and calisthenics bars, the tiger-wood deck and front yard with mountain view, ape-swings in our forest, Japanese zen and rock garden, to our indoor dojo offer a diversity of opportunities to explore and experience the Budokon curricula.
Our cosy guest cottage offers housing for 10 women in 3 separate bedrooms with spacious bunk beds and 2 bathrooms as well as a fully equipped kitchen, fire place, lounge area, and outdoor showers. Our main house offers privacy in our two private guest rooms with Queen Beds and a shared bathroom upon request and additional charge. Please inquire about private rooms.
